Amazing food with attentive service. We had the quail, sausage with whit beans, green beans, patatas bravas, jamon and calamari. Two jugs of delicious sangria and two desserts. We had a lovely lunch. The restaurant only had one other table occupied when we were there, so difficult to comment on the atmosphere.

The food was delicious. But there was a guy walking around and playing his guitar and singing. And a very rowdy large table was singing along. The guy was a good performer and him alone would have been fine for a few songs. But with the table songing, it was piercing and echoed throughout the small dining room. He played non-stop for over an hour, starting before we sat down and continued even after we left. It completely ruined our dinner. I couldn’t hear anything anyone was saying at our table, even the person sitting next to me. I put on ear plugs and it was barely tolerable. Almost everyone around us was eating quickly and leaving fast. The food was delicious and server was very nice. But I was too much and I don’t know how soon I will return.

Food was very good, service attentive. Atmosphere was pretty loud (painfully so when the mariachis came in). All good until we got home and double checked the bill. For our party of six they snuck a $9 per person “banquet fee” into the bill and neglected to point it out. Bad form, won’t be back.

It's ok. Wine selection, food. Just ok. Albondigas stood out as good. Everything else mediocre... nothing terrible.

I live in spain and have tried Spanish restaurants all over the US. Chicago has the best.

People were very friendly and attentive but also not Spanish.

Great restaurant with great vibes in a cozy location. Tapas were good - I wish the Paella was a little more cripsy.

One warning - and something I hope they fix soon - if you have a large group, they hide the automatic gratuity as a line item in the receipt under a tricky name, and there is no warning on the tip lines to remind you about the included tip. Other restaurants using the same POS system will warn you on the receipt as you sign it, but they make it wayyyyy too easy to accidentally double tip

Delightful restaurant with a true home feeling! The paella de mariscos was probably more than enough for the 2 of us, but we’re glad we tried the tapas too. The garlic shrimp was wonderfully garlicky, and the potato and onion omelet was delicious as well.

They even had a mariachi band playing the Wednesday night that went!

Would definitely come back.

Went for my friend's birthday. Food and service was great. We got so much food and everything was amazing. We did not get a paella this time but I have in the past- it takes a little while-but ita worth it. It can get pricy when it adds up- but it's totally worth it.
