   Great food at a reasonable price point. Service was good, food came out quickly but spread out. Never felt rushed. Ambiance was nice, loud but not obnoxious. Would 100% recommend for almost any occasion.

   I am a big fan of Chef José Andrés, so it was another pleasure to dine at Jaleo. The tapas were amazing and very tasty. The cocktails were also creative, it was nice different experience. The desserts were the happy ending of the evening. I want to thank Galileo R, our server was incredibly helpful and made recommendations based on our requests. He is well trained and very gentle.

   Where do you go to eat at 4 on a Sunday afternoon, after a short matinee at the Shakespeare Theater? Jaleo is still the right answer. As always, tapas is reliably good and just the right amount of food for an early "supper." Lots of great food to share among the 5 of us. Don't skip over the vegetables - eggplant, piquilla peppers, cauliflower, and of course, potatoes bravos, all delicious. Only regret - we'd had more than enough to eat before we'd tasted more than a small sample of everything on the menu.

   Not like previous times I was there. Manager with bad attitude.

   This is my 3 time in Jaleo DC. This time we went to celebrate my wife and sons bday. Service was attentive and welcoming, but the only reason I gave 4 starts is bc they forgot my wife's bday, no candle, no happy bday.... Food wise, very disappointed compared to our previous visits. The potato omelet was very raw and no flavor, the steak overcooked on both extremes and lack of flavor, apart from the fact that it was a very tiny little piece. The pulpo was ok, croquetas as well. The only good dish was the rabbit that my son loved it.

   A difficult place to order food for a kid. My mistake. Food was good, but nothing exciting. Salad didn’t have much flavor. Best part of the meal was the cheese board. That was amazing.

    Food was delicious and service was outstanding. Biggest complaint was that I could not read the menu. Between the ooor lighting and the small print, it was impossible to read the menu.
