Hidden gem. Great service, good food, excellent sangria ( with the headache ! ). Great atmosphere- I recommend that if you are only dining as a couple or A small group, sit in the front room, where the bar is. They have a jukebox and everybody talks to each other.
I always order the salmon, fried calamari, and the grilled octopus. Never had a bad meal, except for when we went with a large group for a Christmas party, the fish (filet of sole) was very salty and overcooked. It happened only once, out of the many times that I've been there. The staff some of them don't speak English fluently, but they are so nice and accommodating and trying to explain the dishes, that it's really not an issue at all - it only adds to the experience. The area is a little crappy, but they do have parking lot in the back, so if you're worried about your car it's not a problem at all. -

This was first time coming here and I must say it was a good experience. It wasn't really crowded at the bar area which is where we decided to sit. They have another room which is a bit more fancier. When we sat down we were immediately greeted by the waitresses.
For drinks we started with sangria which was really good. We got a whole pitcher which felt like never ending sangria. For our entree i got the grilled shell steak which I was excited to try. My boyfriend got the picadinho. They both came with a side of rice and fries. I was not pleased with the shell steak. It was never fatty. But I got to try my boyfriends picadinho and it was great. Very flavorful. I wish I ordered that instead. They do give a lot of food. We had enough to take left overs of both meals.
I would definitely come back but try something else besides the shell steak. -

This is the worst restaurant meal I've had in the past three years, and it was expensive!
The chicken was rubbery, the texture of undercooked chicken. The other meat dish we got wasn't as bad, but it was bland (other than being oversalted). The fries were room temperature and soggy, as if they'd been sitting out for hours.
On the plus side, the bread was pretty good. -

We came here for a ealry dinner. We are 6 people and only another table with 2 people. We order our food every ones food came out but not mine. I order a paella, which i know it takes a little longer to cook, but there is no excusefoe my food to come out when my table was done eating. The waiter which i know its not his fault didn't even keep me posted on when it would come out. I have never been to a restaurant that management didn't care either
