A really great restaurant. Food was exquisite, as was the service. Wonderful variety of dishes. Something for everyone - whether you're a meat lover, fish lover or vegetarian.

While I'm not a huge fan of tapas, the food was actually pretty good. I had the spicy empanadas, black truffle steak, and the chickpea dish. I also had a garlic shrimp dish that was really tasty. For dessert I had the Crepas which were amazing... highly recommend! The service was fantastic!

I tend to like tapas restaurants, and this one fits the bill for me. Usually a nice atmosphere any day of the week. Convenient to the hotel where I normally stay. Good wine list. Sometimes I order a few tapas...really into the brussel sprouts lately. The meat and cheese offerings are nice, too. Or if really hungry try the mixed... More

The food is pleasant but it tends to be on the oily side. Could use some healthier options. Atmosphere is good but overly noisy-music volume is an issue

This was my second time here in a year. I went with 5 others with a very eclectic mix of appetites. We each ordered two tapas items and shared. I had to have the cauliflower and fennel cazuela, which everyone liked. Some standout items were also the short rib and the lamb chops. I did not try those (gave up... More

This has lost its way as it has become a big business with multi restaurants throughout CT. The latest was to order Gambas al Ajillo and find that the key ingredient (sherry) has now been removed. This is a signature dish so to be told they have changed the recipe is really odd. Then to be told that when we... More

Some of the tables are close together so you almost feel like you're having dinner with the next table. The food quality was mixed. The ensalada mixta was, in my opinion,... More
