Great food! Very delicious food with Spanish flavor in all its tapas. They eat 2 to 3 tapas per person and the waitresses are very nice.

Great service and delicious tapas. Highly recommend the paella salvaje and croquettas. The olive oil cake was also very tasty.

We went there with 4 families. Great tapas. I would rate all but one plate 10 of 10. The one I didn't like was the lamb. Best one was chorizo sausage in fig sauce.

Caveat. I'm a professional chef of 30+ years. Visited Atlanta in May 2022 and had our last dinner here with Friends. Got a reservation online easily, waited a couple minutes while our table was prepared. We ordered a number of Tapas to share. Staff did a good job bringing them in a timely manner. Interesting wine list. We ordered a terrific Txacholi (sp?) at a reasonable price. Dishes were all pretty classic Spanish - Ocotpus was good and tender, The chorizo with sweet and sour figs held promise but was a little too sweet and sour. Croquettas were yummy. Everyone at the table loved the child carrots with pistachios. Will say that ambient noise was very disconcerting - hard to hear my dinner guests at the table - lots of hard surfaces made the busy dining room VERY loud. But ultimately we enjoyed our dinner there. Good Service.

Disappointed this time. Been here numerous times but this time the food just wasn’t good. Ordered paiaella (sp) waited an hour and it was really salty and not crispy in the bottom. Also tapas just weren’t the same quality as i the past.

Absolutely delicious food & a fabulous experience for my bachelorette. We sat outside because of COVID (on a VERY cold night!) but the heat lamps on their patio kept us very cozy! On top of that, the manager, Dave, made sure we had an incredible experience with a special gift of champagne on the house. He also shared some fascinating facts about the restaurant! It was a wonderful time— great food and great service!

100% recommended since you enter the restaurant, the staff is special and super friendly, we traveled from Orlando to Atlanta and it is the most Spanish and most delicious thing I have ever gotten in the United States, thanks for the attention! we will be back

We had reservations to celebrate a birthday. When we arrived on time we were told we could not be seated and no update on wait time. We went to the bar to get a cocktail and were told we could order and leave but not sit and wait. There was plenty space and no one else looking to do the same. I get that it might be policy but it was not politely shared or even an I'm sorry. We were finally seated and our server was lovely, the manager came by and was apologetic about the wait. That's all great but neither should have had to do that. The host and bartender could have been better trained and the reservation system clearly needs an overhall.

The food was fine, some really good, some average. We arrived early for our reservation and were seated, but while waiting for the remainder of our party to arrive, were not allowed to even order a glass of wine because our waiter had not yet arrived. The host (hostess?) said that we couldn't order from the bar due to Covid. Then, after everyone arrived, another 15- 20 minutes passed before I finally asked a waiter if we had a server. He began waiting on us. The night was fine, but good service and Southern hospitality was definitely lacking. Does it exist in Atlanta anymore?? As a native Atlantan, I am not so sure.

Fabulous outdoor lunch with great service. But, the food is consistent. The broccolini was tough and tasteless. The shoshito peppers (which I've eaten in Barcelona) were inedible ( the need to be roasted). We had the empanadas, whipped goat cheese with honey, and meatballs. They were fairly good.

My wife & I celebrated our wedding anniversary. We had reservations to sit outside. It was a nice warm fall evening. It was fantastic people watching, it was the evening they announced the presidential election results. Everyone was so happy, waving flags, honking horns. It was such a fun atmosphere. Our server, Yaw, was excellent. We ordered 2 tapas, the seared scallops ($13.50), & the crispy calamari ($10.50). They were both delicious. We each ordered a half order of the paella Mariscos ($24.50). Be forewarned, the paella takes 45 minutes. The paella was disappointing. There was one shrimp with head on, which was delicious, 4 tiny clams, 4 small mussels, & squid in the rice. The rice was inconsistent. Parts of the rice was very salty, other parts was not. It wasn't awful but could have been better.I enjoyed a drink, guns & roses ($12.50), while we waited for the paella. It was pretty good. The hostess, Paula, gave us complimentary champagne. She was so friendly & so nice. She kept wishing us happy anniversary & checking up on us. Several others came by to check how the food was. The staff was wonderful. We ordered 2 desserts, the flan ($6.50), which was amazing, to die for, & the burnt cheesecake ($8.00), it was pretty good. Overall we enjoyed our anniversary dinner. In the future we would order more tapas & no paella.

It is better than average, but not "very good." It was good, and still has potential. I have been here about 5 times. The first time was perfect and pre-covid, and so were the second and third time. The fourth and fifth were this weekend (Oct. 24/25th 2020) The charcuterie board! yes. The host/hostess. yes. The diversity. yes. The food.......meh. The broiled oysters were on the menu but they were out and it was only 1pm. I had tot use the restroom and on the way I spoke with a cook who was super helpful, I asked her what the best dessert was and she said olive oil cake, but they were out of the compote it's normally served with, she said the crepes were good, but they were out of the filling. I wanted to try their tableside gin and tonics, which was on the menu, but our server said they weren't doing that at this time. I'm like c'mon, this experience went from a 4.8 to a 3.2 in 15 minutes. Before, their paella was burned and there food is inconsistent. The drinks are fabulous and the servers are nice. Could be better, but if you go you may love it or not...it's really a tossup.

I used to valet at this place but never tried the food. The hour wait was discouraging but can be expected on a Saturday night plus during an NBA playoff game. The ambiance was intimate and romantic. This menu was new to me as you basically order a bunch of appetizers but each one I had was scrumptious! The meatballs were authentic. Brussels sprouts were perfect. Potatoes were crispy. Even the shrimp were better than expected! I had a small draft beer which fits me cause I wasn’t in the mood for a tall glass. A whole page to choose from various wines, cocktails, a few beers. I tried the cheesecake for dessert which was ok. Overall the experience was worth it and since it was mainly appetizers the bill wasn’t expensive at all. This place is good for a date night or double date. Definitely will come back to try to the brunch items (12PM - 3PM Saturday and Sunday only)
