Food: being this a Spanish restaurant,and an expensive one, I was expecting great paella and sangria. Please stay away from these two. Their so called paella is not it! their rice does not even taste like safron or looks like a real paella. This is another type of dish but not paella. The sangria was tasteless as well. We had the lamb tapas. They were very good so you may need to just ask for tapas here. I did not try wine but other comments say it is good here.

Ambience: great! their show is really good. Some aspects of the show are not really what you can call Spanish... but their dancers and singers are great.

Service: Mu so called paella took more than the 30 min they said and I had to remind the waiter. Other than that the service was good.

Value: Not great for the "paella" or sangria. Tapas were expensive but tasty and their show was great so I gave them a 7.

4 of us went here for dinner on Saturday 12th Nov for the most amazing tapas. The meals were so tasty and different. The lighting is very low with a red warm colouring around the room. We were hoping for some traditional Flamenco dancing but it was modern as if it had just come off 'Dancing with the Stars' so it was horrid as was the loud singing. That was a disappointment which also made it difficult to talk.

We came here for lunch on a Monday with a fairly big group and really had a great experience. The waitress we had on the day gave superb service and also ensuring our glasses were never empty.

We had the Fiesta Menu 1 with the addition of Chorizo con Mojo Picon (Mild) so a good range of vegetable, seafood and meat Tapas and I really could not fault any of them nor pick a favourite as they were all great in their own right.

I think it is somewhat pricey, but thankfully the food on our visit was great. About the only thing they didnt have was the Spanish Lager listed on their menu. Overall a good experience for us and I hope it is for you as well.

A group of us came here on a Saturday night. Though the room was a bit too dark, the live Spanish guitar set a nice and relaxing atmosphere, where our group were able to enjoy a nice conversation over dinner. No complaints about the food, however we weren't completely blown away. Excellent service - the staff were very attentive and hospitable, however such service is expected considering the price being paid.

I was expecting more. The room was dark and uninspiring. The service was a bit hard to find. And the food was nothing special.

This is my second time here the first time was great but I'm really not sure what has happened, the food is nothing on what it used to be maybe they changed chefs or something and the service on the night wasn't great either the lady didn't really know what was going on, this was a great place to meet friends after work but don't think I'll be coming back a shame really.

Went there a few weeks ago and the food was great had a few tapas then the paella wow it was great me and my partner will go back just for that. The service wasn't that great not sure what was wrong with the staff but the young man who spoke to us about the wine was a big help.

Went there for wine and tapas. The atmosphere was nice, with live Spanish guitar, but not so loud as to prevent conversation. We had about 5 dishes between 2, the best being the calamari with some kind of delicious aioli, but they were all excellent. There's a good range of Spanish wines available, I highly recommend trying a few. Overall it came to about $100, which was tapas, wine, and some side dishes for two.
