I was expecting a very different experience based on the other reviews. The food was okay but not amazing and the atmosphere was a bit weird and cold…

Different vibe every time I've shown up but the bar has kombucha and I've had a great time.

Really cute vibey restaurant tucked in a quiet corner. Has a very cute patio. The burger we had was EXCELLENT and especially the French fries were both crispy and airy. They were really tasty. This was on the happy hour menu and really cheap.
They also have dj nights and lots of Argentian wine. Very nice, affordable place. Will come again

This place is a gem! I have no doubt this place will do amazing here in Laguna. I always walk by Friday/Saturdays and see the place packed. I saw that they serve dinner & decided to try it out with my mom this Thursday. I got the steak sandwich & it was phenomenal. They had awesome live music. I’ll definitely be back on a weekend or a Sunday when they have brunch & shows!!

Clearly not an authentic Spanish restaurant - the service was actually good and the music had variety

Horrible! We were led here based on the reviews but unfortunately had a very different experience. From the moment we walked in, while we were being served, to the second we got up and left: we were treated like we were inconveniencing them being there. We weren’t there 5 minutes. Worst old fashioned I’ve had and my girlfriend said worst margarita she’s ever had. After we paid the bill I did something I’ve never done. I walked my drink back up to the bar and returned it to our waitress and told her how bad it was. I would normally feel bad and wouldn’t do something like that but she was so rude to my date and I, I didn’t care. I wish I remembered her name, she had brunette hair. Hopefully she was just having a bad day that day. Customer service training is in need desperately. We went to the Larsen after and had one of the best sunset dinner experiences of our lives. A complete turn around! GO THERE!! Excellent customer service and they were so kind to us

Great Comedy Night 🥳 Bebos was Hilarious.

From the moment we walked in, the vibe was absolutely perfect—warm, welcoming, and buzzing with good energy. The staff made us feel like regulars even though it was our first visit. Jordan and Julia went above and beyond, making sure everything was spot on from drinks to dessert. Their attentiveness and friendly service really stood out.

But let’s talk about the food—because wow. Chef Nico is a true artist in the kitchen. Every dish was beautifully crafted and packed with flavor, but the standout of the night was hands down the Chilean Seabass. Perfectly cooked with a melt-in-your-mouth texture and a flavor profile that was nothing short of exceptional. It’s the kind of dish you think about long after the meal is over.

To top it all off, the owner, Fakundo, personally came over to guide us through the perfect wine pairing. He introduced us to some incredible wines from Argentina that elevated the entire dining experience. His knowledge and warmth made the evening feel even more special.

From start to finish, this place nails it—delicious food, amazing people, and an unbeatable atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back.

What a fantastic place and a hidden gem. It has an impeccable ambiance and delightful dining. I'd call this a must try. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and it's a surprisingly good value especially on appetizers and wine. Check it out. I think you'll like it.
