One of the most stressful and disappointing restaurant experiences I've ever had…read more We visited Cafe Sevilla with a group of 14 for a prix fixe menu. The food was served on shared platters, but the portions were distributed unevenly. One section of our table was expected to share a single platter among eight people, while the other section received two. I brought this up several times before our server finally corrected it. Getting enough food for the people paying for the menu should not require repeated requests. The drink service made the evening even more frustrating. The restaurant was loud, and when someone at the table suggested ordering shots, the server would bring entire platters of tequila shots without confirming how many people wanted one or which tequila they wanted. I repeatedly asked him to stop bringing shots without checking with us first, yet it continued. When the bill arrived, the shots were far more expensive than expected, they were at more shots than ordered and we had also been charged for additional people who were not in our group. Our server initially told me there was nothing he could do. When I raised the issue with the manager, I was met with attitude rather than a willingness to resolve an obvious billing problem. She eventually corrected the headcount, but only after considerable back and forth. She only deducted five shots out of the 25 she charged us for, mind you most of our group was not drinking or only ordered a margarita. There was also an automatic 20% gratuity, which I understand for a large party, plus an additional 3% credit card fee. After spending the evening repeatedly addressing service and billing issues, that extra CC fee felt like the final insult. Unfortunately, the food offered no redeeming quality. It tasted soggy, excessively salty, and far from fresh. We came to enjoy an evening together. Instead, I spent much of it managing portions, trying to stop unconfirmed drink orders, and disputing the bill. Based on this experience, I would not return or recommend Cafe Sevilla for a group dinner.

We order the entire tapas menu. But we ordered the paella negra as soon as we sat down. Since we knew it was going to take 30 makes since it's made to order. Drinks: Rebujito Spritz (less sweet) and Telefèric Sangrias (a little sweeter). Spicy Sangria (reminded me of a Spicy Paloma) - all fabulous in their own way. Tapas: Potatas Bravas: so good! We ordered a 2nd one. Love the sauce! Wagyu Empanadas: omg! What is that cracker on the top? It is so good. The emapandas was decent. Carb croquetts: love the tuna sashimi on top! It had a great flavor. Spanish octopus: chared perfectly! Loved the sauce. I love a good octopus dish. El ceviche: very fresh, citrusy favors. Yuzu calamari: it was good, the sauce was interesting, the calamari was decent. Plates: Chicken kebabs: it was cooked perfectly. The perfect amount of Charred. Probably one of my favorites after the paella and the octopus. The pita bread was super fluffy and the hummus was also good. Paella negra: we only got the order for 2 because we figured we would get enough tapas. That rice is everything! It is so flavorful! That butter is also amazing! The shrimp was cooked perfectly and for those who doesn't like the heading shrimp, the head came off easily so you don't have to struggle with it. They also gave my sister in law this fried banana toast and ice cream which was also equally amazing. It could have been the Torrija. Soooo good. There's metered parking and free street parking after 8pm, but our reservations was a bit earlier so we just valet. Just pull up to the drive way pass the resturant, $6/hr and 2 hours minimum.

Parking generally isn't too difficult - there is plenty of metered street parking in front of the restaurant and on nearby streets. Started with the cocktail of the week, the Passion Potion, which had vodka, passionfruit, and egg white. I was a bit disappointed by the drink - my partner and I agreed it just tasted like passionfruit-flavored vodka. Wasn't very balanced, as the vodka dominated the flavor profile. I usually get The Queen's Clover, which is always well-balanced, so would definitely recommend that one. For food, we shared the Valentine's weekend no special foie parfait (chicken liver mousse and fruit gelee), rellenos bacalao, citrus quince salad, duck confit, and all day oxtail ragu. The rellenos were a bit small and the risotto didn't have a classic al dente texture. We have had the salad before, and we love it for its unique citrus and marcona almond taste profile. The menu is very meat-heavy, so having something light and fresh balances everything out. The oxtail ragu is our go-to at Gabi James. We have ordered it every time we've gone because it is a standout dish. The pasta has a nice crisp, and the oxtail has such a rich flavor. The bonus is that it tastes great the next day as well! We shared the fig bread pudding for dessert, which was pleasant and not too sweet. I am giving a 5-star rating based on all our other dining experiences with Gabi James, even though some aspects of dinner fell short this time. Definitely worth a try if you've never been before!

The restaurant has a nice, modern cozy vibe. They have outdoor seating as well with heaters. The restaurant specializes in Spanish and French coastal cuisine, but they're also known for excellent gin and offer variety of cocktails. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable, recommending a few tapas to try. The Gildas, crispy calimari, shishito peppers and glazed pork belly were several of our favorites, but (pan figue) fresh fig on top of goat cheese, drizzled honey and sour dough bread was so delightfully scrumptious. For entree, grilled pulpo was excellent. Perfectly tender and so delicious. Another outstanding dish was Gambas Al Ajillo which is shrimp in butter, lemon and oiive oil. Simple and yet delicious. We shared the seafood paella which was good, but kind of greasy and more on salty side than I would've expected. The glass of Malbec paired nicely with our meal. We finished our meal with churros and fig bread pudding. OMG Bread pudding was so good. I love figs and they were awesome in this. The side of vanilla ice cream pairs well. Churros I thought was okay. Not crispy and have a more donut texture. Overall, I would definitely return with friends and family to try other dishes.
