   The food was solid across the board with the paellas being excellent. Great beer and wine list (though we had some excellent Spanish Cider). The service was definitely off that night. They either seemed understaffed or had pretty junior wait staff.

   I was disappointed with the chicken "paella". It completely lacked the paella flavor. Although good, it was arroz con pollo (rice with chicken). I could taste cumin, it had the coloring achieved from tomato paste, and the rice was not the consistency of bomba rice. I would suggest either adjusting the menu and listing the dish as arroz con pollo, or change the rice preparation to using saffron threads dissolved in a white wine, chorizo, Spanish pimenton, onion, garlic and grated tomato. The stuffed piquillo peppers were very good. The sweetness of the goat cheese + sweet pepper + saltiness of the olives and drizzle of O/O were a perfect combination. The salad that accompanied the arroz con pollo was excellent with it's light dressing of fruity O/O! We will return and try the seafood "paella".

   Everything we tasted was exquisite and well-prepared. We loved their Vermouth, Red wine Sangria, vegetarian paella and red-bell peppers tapas. Wish their portion sizes were a bit more. Also, the online menu prices are outdated.

   From tapas through dessert, every bite of every course at Venga Paella is memorably delicious. I'll definitely return again and again for the quality ingredients, meticulous preparation and intriguing flavors.

   2nd time we have eaten here and we highly recommend it. Nice atmosphere and the food is de-li-cious! We had traditional and ink paellas: really authentic Spanish paellas. Their tapas are varied and awesome too. Taste their sangria! Soo good! The service was great and friendly

   Great Paella - had the 'traditional' with seafood and it is a nice portion with a side salad. My hubby had the chicken version which he thought was great too. Appetizers were bacon wrapped dates and a special of sauted octopus & spiced potatoes. The dates were just great - that sweet/salty/crunchy experience. The octopus was OK - more potato than octopus, which was very tender for what there was. Sangria was nice - they offer red and white. Lots of fresh fruit as well as marinated. Interesting location - lots of parking - cute interior but it's one big room and got really noisy when a group of 8 came in as a party.

   It was our first trip to this restaurant. The food was fine & the octopus was quite good, but the blood sausage was not to my liking. Sangria & flan were very good.

    Tapas came without the bread we ordered (bread is not an extra...) the waitress simply forgot it. The Paella came after a 20 minute wait after the tapas were already eaten, so a solid 35 minute wait time after the order was made. Paella was cold on the inside, cold outside so I think it was just sitting there for a while. Half of restaurant was empty - so no excuse... Overall disappointing. They ran out of the desert we wanted to order, which is minor but still the cherry on top... It was oakland restaurant week with a fix menu so I rate them a 2/5 for poor planning.
