First time there! The service was excellent and the food was perfect! We ordered paella and enjoyed it so much! My only complaint was sitting down close to others I felt like we couldn’t talk. Seating was just too close for me.

I enjoyed and would return. I would recommend that they train their wait staff better. Our server was unable to provide any information about any dish we inquired about, beyond standard platitudes and “I haven’t tried it.” We always enjoy interacting with wait staff and when they’re good, like the cheesemongers at DiBruno’s, they take a good experience and elevate it to the sublime
