    I made reservations for lunch on Sunday because the opening times were available on OpenTable. Much to my dismay when we got there it was dark and closed. I received no message from them about my reservation. We had to go on the hunt for a restaurant nearby that was open and didn’t have a long wait time. If the restaurant doesn’t update their opening times on these apps many will be hugely disappointed

    I was not expecting this. They are from Spain so this is not what you think authentic Spanish food is. They have no avocado, no beans, no plain chicken. You are forced to order a big serving that could feed literally 40 people. The rib eye was alllllll fat. The calamari was chewy and no red sauce. The garlic shrimp came with only 5 and was so expensive. Not accommodating. Such slow service. Small Spanish waitress was rude and not pleasant. The entire experience was horrible. We only liked the man that started a couple days ago, he was fantastic. He should work somewhere else. Do not come here. Food is absolutely trash.
