We had an amazing dining experience! The food was phenomenal, and the service was top-notch. It was a great way to celebrate our anniversary with possibly the best paella we have ever eaten. And the cheeses and chorizo were authentic Spanish along with the jamon, all freshly sliced to order. The wine selection was excellent and everyone on staff was friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended!
