    Overpriced. Had the maduros croquettes and they were tasteless 0/10. Paella was 3/10. Passion Fruit drink was ok.

    From the moment we walked in, the staff all stopped to welcome us in for dinner. We felt like we were at a good friends house. Everything was fantastic.

    Excellent service. Food was all cooked to perfections. We ordered Scallop, octopus, and empanadas for appetiser, all highly recommended. Spanish Fish and paella for main course. Both were uniquely spiced, not heavy, and meat was cooked just about right. That is my third time being at the restaurant. Never disappointed.

    Restaurant was beautiful and service was excellent. The food was not as good as I had hoped . Some of the items were bland and salty. The shrimp app was listed as having saffron but really couldn’t tell. The Paella was good!
