We enjoyed our dinner. The food was wonderful. Great spot in Vail village. The only downside was our server who had just an awful attitude. We would go again and just hope for a different server.

We loved everything about this place. Atmosphere, decor, friendly service. We shared a couple of tapas like appetizers and after that the squid ink fideua “for 2” was enough for all 3 of us and tasted phenomenal.

What we had was okay, not anything I’d go back for. Service was good. Many of the dinner entree options were not available. Wish it was more Spanish tapas either options that were not shellfish due to allergies

The service seemed off and lots of new folks that were still learning. Saw several mishaps around and no appearance of management to help correct the early season wait staff. Entrees took a long time and the restaurant wasn’t that busy. Food was just so so.

I had high hopes for this restaurant, but unfortunately, it fell short in almost every way. The food was mediocre at best, with flavors that just didn’t justify the price. Every dish we tried lacked the depth or excitement you’d expect from a place charging this much. The drinks were equally underwhelming, adding nothing to elevate the experience. For what I paid 450 for 3 of us, I expected much more in terms of quality and taste. Overall, it was a forgettable meal, and I can’t see myself returning. There are plenty of other options out there that are worth trying instead.

Ambiance and location were nice. Steak was sub par. Out of the two pieces of Lamb chops, one was not a lamb chop. Service was fast, however, our waiter was not in a good mood and not attentive to details.
