| - Came here as a part of 6 earlier this year and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. We did have a bit of trouble finding the place, as the entrance was hidden - so make sure you know the address beforehand.
The decor is beautiful and there was tapestry all over the walls! Not entirely pleased about where our table was located though, it seemed to be in the middle of everything (just on the end of the stairs, in front of the drinks booth, etc.)
Our server was incredibly helpful with portion sizes and recommended a bunch of appetizers to split, and a paella, followed by individual desserts at the end. Great suggestions on his part, as the portions were perfect in the end.
Appetizers included Pan Con Tomate, Almendras Saladas, Dátiles Con Tocino Ibérico, Queso De Cabra Frito Con Higo Y Miel, and an octopus one that was a special of the day. All of these were pretty good, the pieces we each got were tiny, but we ordered a bunch of apps, so in the end, it worked out fairly well. None of them stood out significantly to me, they were just all fairly good.
The paella we ordered was a daily special with chicken in it. Definitely not a dish to be had individually or even shared with 2 people. We split the paella among 5 of us, and we all could have seconds too.
A word of caution to vegetarians, this place isn't too friendly for you folks, the one vegetarian at our table did have a salad instead of the paella, but keep in mind a large portion of the menu does have meats in it.
Dessert-wise, I ordered the Flores Con Miel Y Helado De Turrón which is a "Spanish Pastry + Orange Blossom Honey + Turrón Almond Ice Cream". Presentation was beautiful and the ice cream was filled with an almond flavour. The pastry itself was crispy and not flaky, just perfect.
In terms of price, you definitely do get what you pay for, the quality of the service and food was amazing, so, as expected, the price is elevated similarly. I do believe the bill was around $200 at the end, which is more or less expected for a group dinner of this calibre.
