Their paellas, of course, are a must-have every time my family eats lunch here. We usually go for the negra or marinara, or both if we're a big group with relatives from outside the household. And if I remember correctly, they've got killer french onion soup, with bread and melted cheese on top that singes your tongue if you bite into it while it's still hot. Their menu is very kid friendly, with calamari and yummy mozzarella sticks as some of their best selling appetizers. When I eat here, I usually get some kind of steak (see, so un-Spanish) that comes with creamy mashed potato from scratch, a fair sized serving of steamed vegetables, and gravy galore. I generally leave pretty satisfied with my meal.

Delicious and surprisingly, affordable. They serve their classic churros fresh and hot, and the hot chocolate dip dark and rich. Everything about it makes me think of #rainydaygoals hahaha. Their chocolate-covered churros are served cold, which can be paired perfectly with their latte. We had those big order of classic churros (around 12?), a couple of flavored ones (Dulce de Leche for the win!) and some choco-coated churros for a little over 500 pesos. Not bad, eh? I must say, I'm quite impressed with their menu and value for money. I'll definitely be back soon to try their breakfast sets (French Toast sounds good!).

On entering the restaurant, one cannot but notice the well-appointed red tablecloth tables with cloth napkins. The dishes at our disposal were many. They were Gambas (shrimp) in garlic and oil, potato croquettes, Spanish sausage, baked oysters, mushrooms, crostini with dip, chicken, spinach pizza and of course, seafood paella. To add to the cozy ambiance of this restaurant were three singers with Spanish guitars, serenading the audience in the restaurant. Our group got several renditions of Spanish ballads including, "Guantanamera". We sang along for this one. All the dishes were prepared well and highlighted their own distinct taste and flavors. My favorites were the croquettes, the baked oysters and the seafood paella. The croquettes were crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The oysters though small, came 12 to a plate and were moist and well charred to bring out the baked parmesan fragrance. The seafood paella was the crown jewel of the evening. It contained several seafood varieties and was made fresh. It came out slightly charred at the bottom, as does any good paella. When scraped, mixed with the other contents, and eaten, one is rewarded with several bursts of aroma and taste. Table service was excellent. Muchas Gracias, Senores y Senoras.

But if you check the pictures I posted you can see how small the portions were. We didnt even order any drinks. We only had tap water! In fairness to Alba, the food were delicious. The beef salpicao was my favourite. The beef tenderloin was so juicy. It was perfectly cooked. The chorizo and tostados quezorizo were yummy. The chorizo was a perfectly blend of sweet, salty and spicy. The quezo on toasty was so creamy. If ever I come back I think I will go for the buffet for 695 pesos ($21 CAD). You get value for your money. The service was so so. Our server didn't check on us until we call to ask for our bill.

It's a huge commercial and residential compound, its developer set it up like in a Santorini Mediterranean style of buildings and a boutique hotel all painted in white. The place is kinda hard to find if you're an out of towner. You may try using Waze GPS, it might help. We ordered Paella de Marisco, Sulpicao, Callos and Gambas. They offered as starter freshly sliced baked baguette with 4 special dips specially made by Chef Arnaldo. I liked the aioli and balsamic dips. Their Gambas as an appetizer were made of seasoned grilled mushroom, tomatoes and succulent shrimps. It's delicious. The Callos were made from scratched. Taste great. The Paella de Marisco a seafood with chicken mixed seasoned yellow rice and chorizo served on a pan is delicious. Their Sulpicao is the authentic Spanish dish. The beef is tender, soft and moist. The mushrooms were marinated, soft and tender. It's delicious! Serving staff are helpful and courteous. Their food is pricey, serving is small. The developer requires that no trees should be cut within the compound to give way to the structures. Don't be surprised if you see a living trunk of a tree inside El Cocinero's bathroom and dining area. Small clean neutral gender bathroom.

The atmosphere and decor were great, with a very modern and date I say American craft brewery feel. The best selection was impressive, all brewed in house (see pictures). As I usually do, I ordered a flight to sample several of their beers and referenced Untappd for those with the best rating. While these beers are likely adjusted to the local taste palettes, when comparing them to the numerous breweries I've been to in the United States I wasn't able to rate any of the beers I tried much above average. I found them to be relatively bland in comparison. It is still a great venue and one you will likely enjoy if you are looking for a fun atmosphere with a large selection of unique tap beers.
