    I’d heard that friends had the best drink of their lives here and I’m only in town for a few days so I talked some people into going to happy hour with me on Saturday and dinner on Sunday (had to try all the menus I could). It’s fantastic. The drinks are delicious and the food is like modern comfort meets upscale. I would highly recommend coming here, especially for the happy hour.

    I love this restaurant. The Brussels sprouts salad always satisfies. The short rib risotto is sumptuous, and the steak frites was a hit, too. Great cocktails.

    Wonderful experience celebrating my partner’s birthday with her and her friends. Staff brought the table a cava toast to kickstart our time which was a very welcome accommodation. Happy hour Aperol spritzes were a delight, and it should be noted across the board the happy hour beverages/food items come at a great price without sacrificing any quality or creativity. The table ordered a myriad of sides and starter plates. My partner and I ordered the Jerk wings and the burrata which were both fantastic choices. Some of the best jerk wings I have had, they were perfectly seasoned and crispy. So much flavor and just the perfect balance of spice and smoke. That said I would order them again for the housemate buttermilk ranch alone! The burrata was also fantastic, the cilantro mint pesto truly ties together the prosciutto and delicate honey drizzle. Other table highlights were the arancini, croquetas, and the yuca fries. For entrees, my partner ordered the pappardelle, and I ordered the braised rabbit risotto. The pappardelle has been my partner’s favorite version of a pappardelle dish ever since she has tried it, and this visit may have been the very best the dish has turned out. Wonderfully generous serving of wild boar ragu across the three orders that landed at our table. Well balanced sauces and oils, as well as the parmigiano perfectly incorporated across the dish. The braised rabbit risotto was equally as delightful with a great balance of English peas, morel mushrooms, and balsamic glaze drizzled around the perimeter of the dish. This was a incredibly creamy, delicate, soft, and intricate dish that politely demands attention yet does not pull you away from the great atmosphere of the dining room. Very cosy atmosphere, beautiful plants, and a rustic and grassy feeling decorum that nearly transports me to the restaurant’s namesake Paladars of Cuba. The amazing food, wonderful and attentive staff, and atmosphere make Paladar perfect for any occasion.

    Love Our Paladar. Two wishes, add more interesting white wines to the list and also more fish mains. The danger is to keep the same things on the menu, the win to keep a few favs and go for more interesting new items on the menu!
