Recommend the empanadas with goat cheese - my favorite tapas of the night. The least liked was grilled shrimp , which lacked flavor. Also this place serves halal meat , how great! Lovely service as well .

Melissa Crawford

Great tapas , awesome atmosphere, extremely reasonable prices. We went with 5 girls and ate until we could no longer fit anything else in. Plus 2 bottles of wine and it was under $200 including tip!

Will Hallock

Be sure to make a reservation ahead of time! They tend to get busy! Try to grab a table in the back by the windows -- much quieter and romantic .

Leonard

Good atmosphere Most foods are very good Service can be slow so plan lots of time. Suggest 3 tapas per person.Go around 8:45p and the evening crush dies down but still full and lively

Martin

The tapas are delicious. I'd get the calamari , croquetas , and gambas . Sangria has a lot of ice so it tends to get watery towards the end

Ronald Harvey

ideal place for a first date! ( YOU CAN EVEN BRING THE WINE HOME) :):) the menu is filled with spanish tappas styled plates...which creates a fun yet intimate setting . two thumbs up!

TIm

Excellent food and service! Stay for a while and enjoy the wine ! Very reasonable and well priced too!!!

Enrico S

Great tapas food, 5/6 dishes make a meal for two. Good sangria (maybe a tad weak).

Jake Smith

Try the Pincho de pollo y chorizo (#12), you won't be disappointed! It's a chicken and sausage kebab !

Maria Murillo

Patatas Bravas and Mejillones are my favorite! But everything is amazing!

Jason Storer

The pulpo a la gallega was SO great. The octopus was prepared perfectly.

Alex Kwok

Great food, specials are definitely worth it if you can get them.

Sofia Papastamelos

The paella Valencia is delicious. The place is always packed and very lively . The sangria is good but a little weak for my taste.

A S

Have the calamari , fried to perfection.. tiramisu is great for dessert . Skip tapa no 35, the dish has a strange after taste.

Elena Alioshina

Grilled octopus is so good and I don't even like octopus ! Also delish lamb sausage and couscous !

Julie T.

Gianna Nebbia

Short rib pasta special was great (so was everything else)... sangria is weak

Get a pitcher of sangria and the apple/Brie/chutney plate. You won't be sorry.

Heather Farrell

Everything is so delicious here. The white sangria is awesome!

Rachael

If you're not walking or taking the T, the $6 valet parking is well worth the convenience!

Excellent in every way.

Good tapas and good prices

Kevin Wang

Hidden gem . They have live flamenco on certain nights.

Iris Tibbitts

I'll start by saying I like this place - I really do. Service is not good. I have a food allergy and they have screwed up nearly every time and have to send things back. I hope to see improvement.

Katie Kearsey

Definitely go on a night with live Flamenco ! And don't forget your pitcher of sangria ... Read more
