I ordered conejo the meat was cooked really well and the mashed potatoes and veggies really made the overall dish taste good.

Absolutely recommend this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious with large portions. The service was excellent and Andres was very attentive. We highly recommend this restaurant. The only thing I would recommend would be to have more authentic Spanish background music.

The food and service at this restaurant were fantastic! Andrés was attentive and friendly, and he even called us to confirm our reservation, which was a great touch. Not all restaurants are as attentive to the little details, so I appreciated that. We ordered the meatballs and traditional paella, which were both wonderful. Be sure to come with an empty stomach, though! I also had the red sangria, which was amazing as well. Highly recommend this gem!

Fantastic!
This restaurant had so much promise. When you walk in, it immediately feels warm and welcoming. The decor is fun and lovely. The service was very good.
But what killed it for us was the food. Setting aside the fact that it took an inordinate amount of time to get it between the first and second course... It was such a disappointment. It was actually insulting to see what we were finally served, especially in light of the prices.
The pork was dry and flavorless. The pork belly didn't even resemble pork belly. But the most insulting part was being served unseasoned boiled potatoes that were sliced and served as is, not to mention the sauteed frozen vegetables. I can't even articulate how disappointing the food was. It was comparable to low quality diner food. Nothing we got was even remotely worth the price.
We stuck to tapas but I have a feeling this place is more well known for its paella more than it's tapas. They looked much better than the tapas.
When I think of my go to tapas restaurants, Le Jardin and Tango Nuevo in Kingston... They're on a whole other level in every way than this establishment, and yet same prices or maybe a little less.
We will most definitely never be going back.
Great food and service.
I really loved this spot.
It didn’t have near the selection of tapas that I’d been given to expect, so that’s why there’s one star less than 5/5.
However now that you, dear reader, know this, if you go you’ll know not to expect a tapas restaurant.
You will love every bite though!!
Me and my friend were meeting in a restaurant on Richmond road and when we got there the whole block had no power. We decided to take a chance and went into Cadena Restaurant, WOW! It was a great decision. We never had Spanish food so it was out of our comfort zone and was very surprised of our choice of tapas. The food was hot and flavorful. I will definitely be back to try the paella.
