    It was the second time our 4some had been.  we didn't order anything that we had ordered the last time. I think we ordered four tapas and one entrée. With beer and wine it was plenty of food for all of us. Everything we had was really good as it was the last time the highlights tonight were the pork belly absolutely must order. And the skirt steak entrée. I can't wait to go back and I highly recommend this restaurant. If you're unsure of how to order just order a small plate or two at a time and maybe split a paella or an entrée or two at the table. Plan on spending some time in there. We were there 2 1/2 hours. And it was a perfect evening for the second time.

    Our server Emily made my birthday dinner memorable. Many at our table struggled to read the tiny print on the menu. I would like to see the menu items expanded or a “specials” menu added to the standard menu. I would like to see an expanded Spanish or South American red wine menu. We will be back!

    The food and service was top notch. Our first time here and we will be sure to return with friends. I’m glad it’s close to home. One of the few places I know around here that serves paella.
