Extreme DISAPPOINTED. After living in Spain, I was so excited that a tapas restaurant and nightclub opened in the city. We were really shocked how bad this restaurant was. We ordered the olives that tasted like they were just from a can. Still excited to be in a Spanish? Place I ignored her and we decided to order the Bruschetta. The waiter returned to tell us that they were out of bread... ..instead of ordering one of their vegetable paella to share. Oddly, 5 minutes later, another waitress comes by asking if we want a basket of bread. Confusing about why we had just been denied the bread, but hey suddenly had something, now we said yes. We stared, we pulled a few pieces and started eating the bread. Not only was this bread DEFINITELY not fresh, it tasted like it had been sitting in a plastic bag for months, as it was probably close to stamina. At this point, we were really upset by the clear lack of concern for authentic or even high-quality foods. Wary on our Paella, the waiter told us it should be every minute. One hour went by and apologised, and finally our paella came. Our vegetables? Paella had only paprika in it. Nothing else. Peppers and rice. And I don't exaggerate when I say it tasted like a boxed rice mix and frozen peppers. We took a bite and even starved as we decided that our experience was over here. The manager has refunded our paella, which was thought, but this place has no business advertising as a?Spanish? restaurant. I have to say that the salsa dance and flamenco was fun watching, but unlike that, a huge one left in every way.
The manager is rude and constantly pushes people. You even have reserved shields on high tables around the bar and you don't eat them you don't want them there. Alone, if you're not alcohol dirt like me. You don't have a room to stand for people, but they invite you to $12. For what?! For this nerve band with their long ugly songs?! I think DJ's doing a better job. And finally, the food sucks and I'm so happy that I wasn't poisoned by her food when ai didn't know about the quality. This place in their last location had Hahn in their kitchen and I saw this from the parking lot where their kitchen opened behind the door. So sad. How would anyone know if they didn't have it here? The same owner and God knows the same service and obviously missing protocols. You don't even deserve a star. I've been chasing her a while and I've heard others do it. Many people I met there have the same complaint about the manager. He's so unrpofessional and has no idea about customer service.
I went here for a late dinner, but didn't stay for the nightclub aspect. I liked the atmosphere and the toilet was clean and I have nothing else to say positively. The service was friendly but much too slow; it took 45 minutes to Paella (which was very overwhelming, it was mostly only rice). With other dishes it took about 25 minutes each, for simple tapas, not large plates. The empanadas were soggy and soft. The Calamari was good (but slow, again). The Sangria was all right, but only right. I wasn't here for Happy Hour, maybe this place is more fun for it... provided the service is faster. Overall, I would only be invited here for Happy Hour AND if from a friend. But I would give a warning about my previous experience here and take the opportunity to say that I told you when it ends bad again.
Love this place! I am picky when it comes to restaurants, but I can say I really enjoy this one. The food is always good. The staff is friendly and welcoming. My friends and I dance here often, and the vibe is always fun.
