| - I've been wanting to try this place since it opened, and was glad that I finally got the chance! I went on a Saturday at 630 with two other people, we made reservations, and were seated right away. However, when we got there, the restaurant was still pretty empty, so reservations were probably not required. But by the time we left around 9pm, the restaurant was completely packed, and there were a few people waiting at the door. The decor was nice, and the service was good. Waitresses were very friendly.
Now, onto the most important part - the food!
- We tried the smoked eggplant, angus tartare, and foie gras pate. These all came quickly, and each dish came in portions of two. All three were pretty good, my favourite being the foie gras pate - couldn't get enough of it!
- From the hot tapas sections, we ordered the fried pork belly and grilled octopus. The fried pork belly was very yummy! The skin was just the right amount of crispiness, and the meat was very tender with just the right amount of fat to make it nice and juicy. I'm a huge fan of octopus, but unfortunately the way the chef made it here was not that great, and I would suggest skipping it.
- And of course we had to try the paella. We ordered the paella de tapagria. Be aware that the paella takes around 40 mins to make. So if you know you want the paella, I would recommend ordering that right when you sit down, before you look through the menu for other items. The paella was delicious. The rice was very flavorful, and they are very generous on the amount of seafood and meat in the dish.
- For dessert, we got the churro with dulce de leche. Again very good. Although I felt that they were a bit cheap on the small portion of dulce de leche we got. It came with four churro, which I thought was kind of little for the price.
