Let's just start by saying before I written this review, I have dined at this restaurant more than once but my last experience was what pushed me to write this review.
Aside from the staff being very abrupt and hesitant to help you or take your order on a busy day definatly does not make up for the quality of the food.
We came here for New Years, and can you tell me this…. How do 20 grown adults share 4 appetizers and how do they have the nerve of 5 tiny (thumbnail) stuffed mushrooms to be called "family sized". Of corse we could have ordered more but that would have been extra (on top of the $85) we spent ! After the appetizers were served there was an HOUR wait until we had our main coarse. Which is rather tasty. The steak with very tender but of coarse it had a down fall, NOTHING TO EAT with it besides potatoes chip?! Yes, potato chips which we had to share. And on top of that there was no coffee it desert. I should have just taken that $85 and ripped it up! I was never so furious and disappointed in a restaurant in my life. Oh, and we watched the ball drop on an 12 Inch tv in the bar area….
What also frustrated me about this restaurant on multiple occasions is how often they can forget your order or ignore and special requests you may have… I said id like my steak rare at lest two times, and of coarse it came back well done and I had to send it back.
The only plus I would say is the inside looks kind of pretty and the drinks are not watered down (which took me by shock)!
I would defiantly avoid this restaurant!!
I love their paella and their enchiladas! I prefer the pork and cheese over the chicken. Service is good, but there can be a wait. I recently tried their shrimp in spicy garlic for appetizer and stuffed pepper and both were delicious! Parking is across the street at the muni meter. The bathrooms are eh and too dark. It has a nice intimate feel and always my family's favorite.
