The host went above and beyond for me on my Birthday. It was Flamenco night and when the talent sang happy birthday for everyone he noticed I was not at the table (I know, terrible timing for a rest room break on my end) so he requested them to sing Happy Birthday again towards the end of the evening. That was very special!
This restaurant was beautiful, from the elegance, to the ambience, the food and excellent service. A must try for that special occasion or simply a night out with friends, I give it 5 stars!
I was surprised that we were the only ones in the restaurant at 6:00 before going to a concert, but everything was excellent. Our server, Katerina, was helpful in making our selections and drinks were really good. My octopus appetizer was the best I've ever had! It was so tender and almost melted in your mouth. The portion was HUGE so we had to take most of our dinner home, but made sure to leave room for dessert. My Chilean sea bass with 8(!) shrimp was outstanding as was my husband's red snapper. Will definitely be going back whenever we're in Montclair next.
A new favorite. As good as the best in the Ironbound and better than most. The wine list is terrific, they've figured out parking, and the flavors of Spain come though in every bite. Pollo extremedura
Amazing staff. Very professional. Drinks were amazing. Food even better. Huge portions great price
Never been there before, decided to try it. What a great experience! Food was magnificent, well prepared and thoughtfully presented. Service was great, both friendly and polite. Ambiance was classy and even the restrooms were excellent and well kept. My new favorite restaurant. I will definitely be returning!
Service, food and ambiance were ok at best. Patrons (adults) were listening to videos on their phones at top volume.
I had a mixed seafood dish. The calamari was a bit overcooked. I told the waitress she got the manager and they remedied it right away so overall experience was excellent.
We had our first dinner last night at Sayola. The food was excellent. For appetizers, we had the beef empanada--you could tell it was made in house and was delicious, the mixed special appetizer and the shrimp in garlic in white wine. All were on point and with anything with a sauce, you will want to use the delicious bread to soak up the sauce. The entrees were also very good. Two were excellent, veal with brandy sauce and skirt steak and one, a chicken breast dish needed more seasoning but still was good. For dessert, we had Tres Leche and warm rice pudding. Yum! Great sangria, very pretty atmosphere and excellent service with Shelly as our server. We will back for sure
Wonderful atmosphere, great drinks and service. The appetizers and dinner were fabulous and very reasonably priced.
We wish we could go everyday!!!

My overall rating would have been 5 star but our dining experience turned out to be less favorable. Our recent visit was on Father's Day and we looked forward to revisiting one of our favorite restaurants. First off, the service was excellent and the food was good. When we made the reservation there was no mention of a pricy pre-fixe menu on the website and we were told we could not order from the regular menu after we were given the standard menu and already seated. Our favorites were not included. The soup was mediocre, entrees were good as well as dessert. The restaurant comped us an appetizer and a round of drinks but we left unsatisfied and will not be returning.
The welcome from the door was really disappointing. The Manager was pushing Pre pre-fix menu $80 per person! And that was kind of uncomfortable and left a sour taste
We have been here three times. Food is well prepared. The paella is delicious. Salad was very easily shared.
If you want a fantastic Spaniard Food this is the place

A fantastic place for a date night! Food is deicous and fresh. Pricey so be ready to spend some hard earn money. But the portions are great. Will return in a few months.
