3.0Ate here for the first time tonight. Relied on “Yelp.com” to assist in determining the menu “must-tries”.
The sangria lived up to the expectations. However, for you alcoholics out there, you may find the mild, fruity flavor of it lacking in ethanol content. The paella and beef steak were stellar amongst the dishes ordered (also ordered the dates, shrimp/crab croquette, flatbread with prosciutto, stuffed chili peppers, and scallops). Everything ordered plesantly surprised the taste buds. Butter and garlic run rampant in the flavors of the food and leave you feeling heavy at the completion of the meal. Yes, definitely the way to dine when it comes to Spanish/tapas cuisine.
The service deserves a kudos as well. They were attentive without being overbearing. They continued to replenish our water cups even after the bill had been paid, nor did they harass us to leave so that they could accommodate the next set of patrons. Nice to see that some waitstaff still have a high regard for the service they provide.
Drawbacks included a loud dining room (holding a conversation at a normal volume was impossible) and the portion to cost ratio was somewhat out of line (about $55/person).
Overall, would recommend to try it out at least once based on the tantalizing flavors and excellent table service.

4.0three word: Piggy Back Dates. OMG – they are amazing. That and the spicy calamari are reason enough to visit. Chandeliers adorn this ABC furniture annex (they are for sale actually). Great for larger parties. I’d avoid eating outside as the waiters sometimes forget you’re out there. Worth a visit for sure.
