We were a party of 4. Despite the fact that it was a moderately busy evening, the noise level was comfortable. The service was excellent. The food was good but not memorable. Part of the problem may have stemmed from the menu selections we chose. The check, which incorporated a 20% service fee, was reasonable. On balance our experience was very enjoyable. We Will certainly go back

Just delicious food! From the warm starter bread to the seafood paella. I enjoyed that lobster soooo much. Cooked perfectly and juicy. And to top it off received a cookie to go. Yummy!!

Waiters very nice, all of them attentive but not intrusive. Gazpacho really good, seafood paella fish wasn't great but other seafood decent. Really like the restaurant tho I go every once in a while. Good fun atmosphere.
