| - Phenomenal....yup that pretty much sums this place up. I am shocked to see some mixed reviews on here for Malabar. I went here last night with a group of friends for restaurant week and I can not say one bad thing about the place. Everything from the service to the food was amazing. The great part about there menu for restaurant week is that you can try out a lot of there foods. They gave a choice of two tapas to start, one entree, and one dessert. As far as the entree you had an option with their Paella. If you chose, it was for your standard two people. My girlfriend and I decided that we wanted to try as many tapas as possible and ordered four different tapas. We got the grilled octopus, calamari, croquetas, and clams with chorizo. All of them were great. The croquetas, clams, and calamari were out of this world. The grilled octopus was good but not on the same level as the other dishes. The sauce from the clams with chorizo were to die for. I used up all the bread on the table to soak up that stuff. We both wanted the Seafood Paella. It was extremely flavorful and came with a good amount of clams, mussels, shrimp, calamari and monk fish. All of the ingredients were perfectly cooked. For dessert we split the flan and the tres leches. I do not a very big sweet tooth but I thought both were really good. The tres leches was super moist. All of that paired with a nice bottle of Granacha and good friends. Truly a nice evening at Malabar.
