Food is solid. Popular and busy place. The front of house is run loudly and with force. Go along for the ride or there’s friction. Oddly poured our wine away from the table. How do I know it’s the bottle I bought.

What a disappointment. We ordered steak tartare to start. Whereas the beef was good, the chef thought it clever to mix in hoards of cheap processed cheese, making about a 50/50 split meat/cheese, it was dreadful. No seasoning and no toast to accompany. My wife took the ‘paella’ which was seafood with rice. Tasteless and consequently she has spent the day in bed. I had the scallops in bacon which were rubbery and overcooked. The dessert consisted of chocolate mousse piped into a toffee and nut cup. The service was better than the food. Definitely not sophisticated and definitely not European cuisine. You need to up your game guys. Not even approaching value for money.

We ordered risotto and paella and both were flavorful, however the paella was more of a seafood ‘watery’ rice and not the dry paella I was expecting. Regardless, the flavor was there for both dishes so my rating isn’t about the food.

4 stars only because the ropa vieja came with a weird rice and no plátanos but everything else was great and the service was exceptional.!

By far, the most amazing dinner I’ve had in ages.. Christmas Eve, crazy busy, I had the escargot, prime rib and a couple of martinis. The service was amazing… and they were slammed, and the food was out of this world! Even the mashed potatoes were over the top! No need for salt or pepper, everything was seasoned to perfection.. they even brought me a box to rest my feet on since I was at the bar, honestly, above and beyond anything I could’ve imagined. Show this place some love whenever you’re in town, you won’t regret it!

We ordered an arugula salad, escargot, the seafood pasta, and the risotto aurora. All of the food was great and reasonably priced. The salad was very fresh and the escargot was delish! Nice people.
