Paella Mixta
Marcelle R.

Excelente and beyond expectation! Recommended! Is a hidden gem. I haven't had a better paella, the best sangria and everything we had was excellent! The ham croqueted, empanadas and more!! Definitely coming back again and again!!! So happy about this

PAELLA! For 4
Nina T.

What a gem ! Spanish cuisine with a Spanish chef. We have been looking for a traditional paella plate and there we are ! We chose the seafood option but they also offer many others. Look at the generous shrimps they cooked ! Plenty for the 4 of us and even leftovers. They also offer many diverse tapas. This time we got to have tortillas and they were tasty. The chef came out and shared a bit of his story with our table. Very friendly and really passionate in sharing his cooking. The restaurant is simply decorated with paintings and you'll recognize some key spots from Spain. Area is good enough for small and bigger parties. Parking is ample too. I'm a little sad that it requires a bit of drive, coming from Houston. We submitted a request for the chef to move closer and/or open a second location in Houston. To be continued ! Until then, this does feel like memories from Spain!

Delicious food, friendly staff and cute inside. Will be back! The paella was cooked perfectly and was fantastic. Can't wait to try it again, you have to call ahead for the rabbit paella.

Food was delicious and service was not bad. Loved the empanadas and the complimentary Cuban bread with butter. They will add 15% to your check if pay with credit card/dine in. Overall, love this place and will return.

Seafood Paella
Brett N.

Why 5 stars? Because this was my favorite Cuban food in Texas so far. --- --- --- After living in Tampa for nearly 15 years, I've eaten enough Cuban food to become Cuban. I think that's how that works? Since moving to Texas, the amount of Cuban restaurants has been cut by approximately 98%, and the few restaurants I've found just don't compare. It's similar to Mexican food in Tampa - there are basically two good places and they are both owned by the same person. I planned on ordering a couple Cuban sandwiches and calling it a day, but when I was looking at the menu, I noticed paella. It said to please allow 25 minutes to prepare, so I was heavily debating whether to actually order it. I looked up paella within the reviews and noticed a pretty universal love for it. And I overheard an employee telling a patron how good the paella was. So I dove in and took the paella plunge. The bad news is that 25 minutes actually turned out to be an hour. I ended up just placing the order and then heading back to my parent's house to wait for it. While the wait time was kind of crazy, it was pretty solid paella. I've had better, but not much better. And the Cuban Sandwiches were also the best I've had in Texas. Again, not as good as Florida, but close. The bread was much thicker than any I found in Florida, even after being pressed. We ordered plantains and a guava cheesecake for dessert and both were great. The cheesecake was very unique - its texture was similar to some kind of soufflé, which I did not expect. It was heavy and rich, so my mom and I didn't even finish one slice when sharing it. Granted, I just ate a whole serving of paella, a very thick 1/2 of a Cuban sandwich and several plantains, so maybe that contributed. Kudos to Mr Sabor for bringing the Cuban flavor to Texas. Even if they had to borrow Paella from Spain, they did a great version of it.

Tapas were excellent! Go check it out, new location in the East end, easy parking and no need for dinner reservation. Can't wait to try the Cuban for lunch sometime!

01. Croquetas Artesanas de Marisco (3)
Jacquelyn C.

This place was an unexpected find. My friend brought me and other friends in and we were pleasantly surprised. The empanadas and croquettes were good, though I preferred the empanadas more. We also ordered extra plantains because we cold not get enough. The cuban sandwich was sooooo good. The bread was nice and toasty and the insides were nicely warmed. The sandwich is also larger than you think, I could not finish one on my own. Will definitely be returning because I want to try the paella!

31. Masas de Cerdo con mojo / Pork chunks with cuban creole " mojo"
Donna Y.

Authentic and so good! Great service and planning to go back. The pork dish was amazing and so were the beef empanadas. My husband enjoyed the lamb. Everything was hot and fresh!

I'm giving it 3 stars based on my entire experience, not just the food. First and foremost, this is a hole in a wall Spanish - Cuban experience in Webster that I am grateful it is there next to my parents place. However the food kind of fell short. You walk in and it decked out with plants and photos of Cuba. I was really excited about this place! Our server greeted us but he did not seem excited, like at all. It was kind of disappointing because we expressed excitement, sharing that our family was from Cuba but he did not seem interested lol. So that kind of ruined the time there. I ordered the arroz con pollo and it was pretty good except the salt fell short. I tried the other dishes and was impressed with the ropa vieja and how flavorful it was. The picadillo had an interesting taste I could not get behind. My mom's Cuban sandwich was thick and the bread was overriding the flavors inside. Anyway, glad I tried it, but probably won't be going back.

Lots of plants, very fresh atmosphere
Mary A.

What a delightful surprise! We are newcomers to this cuisine, and it did not disappoint. The service was incredibly fast, and we enjoyed the colorful atmosphere. Now I want to try everything on the menu! We shall return.

26. Camaron al Ajillo (Cuban Style) / Garlic and butter Shrimp
David J.

Leo greeted my party with a fantastic smile and his service at our table never wavered. The restaurant was comfortable and clean. We began our dinner with croquetas de Jamon Serrano: perfect! I wanted more! Carne de cerdo frito was sublime with a perfect flavor and texture. Carne de res aliñado was tender and cooked with delicious onions. Camarones con ajo we're delicious and a perfect portion. Cafecitos y pastelito de guayaba ended this wonderful meal. The staff here were so friendly and made sure all was to our liking. Leo's service was exemplary, and made me definitely want to return and try the paellas.

25. Grilled Chicken Breast / Suprema de Pollo al Grill
Stetson .T. P.

My Strategy when trying new restaurants is to go hungry so that the meal would be honest with my taste buds. Was excited when I initially found this authentic Restaurant boasting cuisines from Spain & Cuba. My review will be pretty short and direct. I was not pleased with presentation or what was received. Ordered to-go, dear host when customers ask questions sell them on your best sellers. Garlic shrimp for the pricing was absurd was given a little bit of shrimp and sides looked as if the plate was empty. Lets just say as a cook who takes pride in every dish I couldn't believe they gave a meal like this to a customer. Their chicken in creole sauce was horrible and an insult to creole cult my picture will show why. It literally tasted like it was cooked with lemon juice absolutely no flavor. I'm only glad that I order the soupa de Pollo or else my day would have been worse. The cheese cake although tasty after removing the burnt outer layer. Again I am baffled that this was even served to anyone to the point where I now find myself searching the web for Spaniard/ Cuban dessert to see if being served burnt is a thing. All in all between service, presentation and food quality 2 Stars at best.

First off, shout out to Aston! This server asked me the second I sat down if I had any dietary…read morerestrictions. I said oh I don't eat pork and no alcohol. Immediately he took my menu and was like I'll be right back. And he proceeded to cross off any dish that I couldn't eat. I've never seen that before!! Usually servers will ask and be like ok cool I'll let you know what you can't eat. But the extra step of literally crossing it off was so thoughtful. Give him a raise!! I went for early dinner (5p) yesterday (random weekday) and it was not packed however once I left (around 630), every table was taken! Parking is solely valet so just be mindful of that. Food was SO delicious and every plate was unique and yum! This is what I had: - focaccia: kinda need it. It's oily (I mean it's focaccia. It's supposed to be) but you need a vessel for some of the dishes. It was very yummy!! - eggplant: just get it. The onion and balsamic flavors shine with this warm stew situation and it's SO good. - sweet potatoes: has labne and mint. Yum yum yum! - redfish: crisp top. Served w butternut squash. Def recommend - skirt steak: the chimichurri was chefs kiss. - cauliflower: the manchego and dill flavors were perfection Each dish was unique and packed with flavor! Ambiance is posh yet casual and relaxed. I will def return to try more dishes. Despite not eating pork and not drinking the wine (lol yes it's a wine bar), I had plenty to enjoy!!

Within the first ten minutes of entering, we had met not only a wonderful host but our server and one of the managers. Their casual check-ins were appropriate and appreciated, never feeling fake. Their restaurant is an upscale casual and simply decorated with an impressive bar and food menu. The meal was a combination of individual and shared dishes. I ordered the Ensalada Mixta 5/5 was great but perhaps not large enough to share, so get your own. Sharing the large plate of Paella Mariscos 4/5 was delicious but the hanger steak 5/5 is absolutely amazing. The wine selection is great offering something for everyone with flights available. The overall experience made for a fantastic birthday celebration and I'm ready for my encore visit to relive that great vibe. I'm betting the staff will ensure it's a special treat.

When I told her I am still working on it she huffed away. And to top it all she added auto gratuity of 20% when their menu clearly states auto gratuity for 6 for more people and when questioned she told the hostess who was also the manger that she just did that as she just did that. She didn't ask her how we wanted the bill split just got the bill with entitld 20% gratuity for being the a&$ she was . Dropping 250$ and getting this kind of food and service , the will be our last visit . Ambience is good . Pbbly brunch is not the right time as we had a nice dinner visit in the past .

Great service, delicious food, high quality ingredients!…read more Our server was incredibly attentive to us without having to appear every ten minutes to interrupt our conversation. When you first walk in, the interior is dimly lit, warm, and welcoming. The arugula salad appetizer was the perfect balance of light and flavorful with a good peppery kick from the fresh arugula. The Nancy cakes were simple but comforting, and with the roe made it an incredible experience. We also tried the lamb tartare and the burger, and both blew our minds away. Just the quality of the ingredients spoke for themselves. The flavor was perfectly balanced, and I was very impressed by the consistency of all the dishes. Highly recommend!

This was our second visit, and unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to the hype this time around…read more We arrived earlier than our reservation and they weren't able to accommodate us inside, so we opted for the patio. I was actually pleasantly surprised, it was spacious, shaded, and really comfortable. We started with the Nancy Cakes, which are always a 10/10 and easily the highlight of the meal. We also tried the yellowtail aguachile with roasted poblano and sunflower seed za'atar, which was just okay--nothing particularly memorable. For my entrée, I ordered the burger and specifically asked for the aioli on the side. Unfortunately, it came on the burger, and there was so much of it that it completely overpowered everything else. Coming back after a few years, we were hoping to be reminded why this place is so popular, but overall we left a little underwhelmed. I'm not sure we'd go out of our way to snag a reservation again.

Then don't buy that cheese and lower the price for a charcuterie board that barely feeds one person. The wine strip was also malfunctioned on 90% of all the wines, so they told us to come to them to ask for the pour. We never got the service and felt like we should not have to track you down every time we need a pour . Sat there for over an hour with no wine and a charcuterie board that they still chose to charge us in the end. Oh, on top of that.. the so called "Executive Chef" was taking a photoshoot of a customer the whole time. Definitely will not be coming back and i do not recommend coming unless you want to be charged over price for barely anything.
