I’ve had dinner here numerous times, and really never had a bad experience until last night.I ordered the Spanish pork chops with a s of sautéed spinach. The Chops were tough so I got a Shrimp dish. A couple of minutes later the way came back and said he had to take back the spinach because the chef said they get back. I asked why is that was what the chef wanted I thought that was disgusting and I told the waiter that who were they gonna give the spinach to someone else? that to me was very bad business and I told him that also. it’ll be a long time till I go back there again if ever!!!

Not what it used to be. Portions smaller and mariscada bland and not rich enough. Side fish of pasta served in a bowl like dish that was good for dessert. The salad dresding has not chsnged in decades. Party of four... no one left pleased. Much brtter options available for the price. Not noisy and easy to park

Ambiance (4/5): The inside was fairly empty on a Friday night with approx 4 tables occupied. The establishment is nicely lit and has a full bar as well. Minimalistic decor. Service (5/5): I really wanted to love this spot because our server was so friendly and enthusiastic with the drink and food recommendations! He said he knew the regular patrons and we were newbies, which shows attention to his guests! The food came out decently fast. Food (4/5): The meal came with a free starter of table bread and salad! The bread was very meh but I enjoyed the salad dressing! Mariscadas al Ajillo: the seafood bits were cooked perfectly! Nothing tasted overcooked or fishy. The sauce had a good amount flavor. It was reasonably priced for the portion of seafood in the stew. The yellow rice that comes it does a good job in soaking up the sauce. My only thing was that the sauce could have used a little more flavor. Paella Valenciana Speciality: This dish was not something write home about. The rice was not throughly seasoned through and bland side—it was as if the meat and veggie toppings were thrown on top rather than cooked into the rice. The rice went well with the extra Ajillo sauce from my dish. I liked the sausage but not the chicken as much. I really wished the flavors were integrated better.

Been going here my entire life. They kept it very much authentic and just like it was 30/40 years ago. You will get excellent service and excellent food

The food was horrible and the service left much to be desired. The tables are to close to one another.I wouldn’t recommend dinning here. Over priced on all menu items, drinks are watered down and not delivered in a timely fashion when ordered.

We didn't know about this hidden gem. Friends suggested and highly recommended it and they live 20 minutes away. I have to say it was one of the best dinner experiences that I have had in a while. The food was perfect and they have a ton of gluten free options, and the chef is willing to accommodate just about any allergies. And best yet it was much more reasonable than other restaurants around town.
Dietary restrictions: Offered to make almost any dish according to your needs with substitutions.
