    This was our second time at Muraya and it was just as good as the first! We had the same waiter, Ricky, and his high energy is awesome! Food selection is amazing and the cocktails were also a huge hit.

    Bulla usually never misses. On this last visit, we had a fantastic bartender, Ru, and a food server, Quinton, for our big group. Drinks were 10 out of 10. The food was good. However, the grease used for the calamari, chicken, waffles, and empanadas was old, leaving all the food dark brown and overcooked. Everything else non-fried was great. It wasn't reassuring that the manager never came over to speak or acknowledge the subpar grease. I'm sure the manager sent Savannah, a sweet attendant, to our table because she didn't want to hear our feedback. Only because I frequently visit Bulla and know their chefs are good will I return. Hopefully, today was just lousy mgmt in the kitchen, and the former manager and team will return soon.

    Five of us had dinner here for my parents anniversary. Started with a Coquito that was on their drink menu, this tasted like the one I had back in Puerto Rico, very authentic. We had the Paella and the Asada experience, both were delicious. Paella had fresh ingredients well seasoned and the Asada steaks were tender and cooked perfectly. I would highly recommend for any special occasion.

    We visited on a Tuesday, Despite the moderately small number of patrons the service seemed a little slow. The wait staff was pleasant enough but not especially efficient. Making multiple trips to refill water or take one drink order at a time. We had to suggest we were ready to order. Drinks took a while to be delivered though I could see them sitting on the bar. Once we placed our food order it was prepared quickly and the taste was amazing. The Pecan glazed salmon with broccolini was some of the best.
