The coconut, lime mussels, Spanish salad and grilled eggplant were delicious. Service and atmosphere were great. Our third time there and would highly recommend it.

Good food, we got a pitcher of white sangria (don't recommend: it was just water with a light fruity flavor, like a canned flavor water.)

I once hailed their seafood linguine as the town's unrivaled delight. However, revisiting after years, disappointment struck. The pasta lacked its former flavorful richness, tasting overly fishy and dry. Despite this, their salsa, tortilla, and sodas remained exceptional, as did the trio cream brulee. Regrettably, the pescato frito fell short. Service suffered, with long waits for the bill and payment machine (over 10 min for each). While still worth a visit, it no longer reigns as the top culinary destination.

Some of the food was quite good (cubanette, steak, churros). But the potatoes and bread were not up to expectation.

Food was more Spanish inspired than Spanish tapas. Calamari came with a salsa verde which was an interesting choice. Dark decor and nice ambience.

Had the best date night at the tapa bar. Vanessa was our server and we had such a good time with her. She had great food and drink recommendations!

A group of women gets together once a month and someone chooses a different spot each month. There were only 6 this time and we were seated around a table and it was quiet enough to hear each other. The wine selection was good and reasonably price. I chose a bottle of Joya to share and it was $27. and very pleasant. The tapa selection was small and the order consisted of Margarita pizza, shrimp, chicken wings and the only complaint was that the wings were tough, but plentiful. The staff were pleasant and helpful.

Happy Hour - Fabulous- I had pizza, Patatas Bravis, Prawns and beverage was Red Sangria- all well priced. The offerings are all flavourful and great portions so you may enjoy a variety as well, perhaps your dining partner likes something you don't, that's OK, the tapas offering allows you to enjoy and not full up to partake in the other shared offerings. The staff are friendly and open to any questions about the food plus if your nice will tell you their favourites or what they think may not be up to the level to recommend that evening so be gracious and tip well. Note: Bathroom lighting is great for taking pics.

I was here on Valentine's Day and the bartender with short blond hair had terrible service and attitude with us, her food is amazing but the service is not! We felt like the bartender was been rude and racist.
