Chickpea puree with grilled shrimp!
Jean D.

Came here on a snowy day so we had the place pretty much to ourselves. Food was great and prices were reasonable. Service was very good as well. Definitely would recommend!

First time trying the food here, definitely will come back for the squid ink seafood pallela. Very fresh seafood and love the squid ink. Baby scallops in the pallela are so fresh! Rabit snails pallela also a great hit, rabbit meat are tender (imagine chicken leg if you never had it) snails are very soft. It taste great even to eat it next day. Pork sausage with bean is something to die for!!! I can't eat five orders alone ..... Grill squids are fresh, soft.. love it Oxtail Empanadas so yummy strong flavor of oxtails, soft and moist inside... I imagine to eat it with any cheese dips for game night.... Thin & Crispy outside, not heavy or greasy at all. All fresh ingredients and natural flavors of the food. Highly recommend everything. It takes 45mins wait but it was well worth it.

Difficult one. I'd give a 3 1/2 but not an option PARKING - this area in Norwalk is tough for parking. ENTRANCE - no host and no organization for parties pre scheduled SEATING - someone who knew about our group got us situated yeah. DECOR- very spacious with 12+ tables upstairs and a private room downstairs TAPAS - they have quite a few to chose from so nice. These are basically appetizers. The scallop tapas came with risotto it was ok for me. Peas were under cooked and flavor was too light The vegetable taps was good. Had zucchini and eggplant and onion with a good balsamic The shrimp and garlic appetizer was excellent ENTREES - I had the pork tenderloin that was just good. A little over cooked and a bit salty. Wife had chicken dish that she said was good. Others in our group shared a per person paella ($25 per person). They liked it. VINO - the best Spanish ganache vino was decent. The marques on the menu they did not have and they served me something else's but after a ordered a bottle they told me it was a vineyard close. And it was DESSERT- ordering now so will review later most went for the rice pudding PRICE - didn't pay but I'd say it is $$$ or $$$$ after the tire hits the road

I ended up coming here because we had a Groupon. We didn't hear anything about the place beforehand so we were excited! As soon as you walk in it's clean and open. The decor is very authentic and warm feeling. We sat in the back room away from the bar. We started off with a pitcher of their red sangria which was nicely strong and not too sweet. We ordered 5 different tapas and my absolute favorite was the empanadas. I was tempted to order another plate they were so juicy and flavorful. Had a hint of cinnamon or something sweet that was a nice touch. The last tapa we ate was the ceviche and that was the perfect (almost) ending. It was light and refreshing. Nice big pieces of shrimp and crispy plantain chips, so delicious! We finished off our dinner with their flan and I was speechless after the first bite. I have never had a flan like this and it was absolutely amazing! 11/10!! Already have been telling friends about this place. It was way too quiet for being this good.

Seafood Squid Ink

The dishes quality more than my expectations, not salty but favors very well!! Especially love the blood sausage! Its definitely the best I had so far! The squid ink seafood is very fresh too! Delicious

Charcuterie  Plato de carnes curadas
Mary B.

I'm giving it 3 stars for its atrocious spotty service with only 2 camareros to serve 2 dining rooms , both playing t role of bar tenders. Please don't have specialty drinks that you cannot mix!! The food was very good with unusual flavors. Ordered the gambas al ajillo, mussels and charcuterie plate. We typically order a few items to start then order more items! We wanted to try the tortilla and salads but it was an difficult to get eye contact and we were sitting and only couple at the bar! It was our anniversary and we were looking to eat to our heats content and be served. I asked the waitress for another piece of bread and she told me to flag down the other waiter who had the break basket, but he disappeared into the adjacent room. Enjoyed the music playing but just a let down! I don't understand the whole mix here if it's family or they can't get workers or what! Would love to return and order the paellas, b/c the dishes are very good!

My wife and I took my 85 yr old mom out for her first dinner of Spanish tapas. We went to Paella in Norwalk. It is one of our favorite restaurants. The service is always attentive and friendly. We had the octopus with sliced potatoes, codfish fritters, shrimp in garlic sauce, and oxtail empanadas to start. My mom enjoyed it all. She had never had octopus or oxtail before and didn't know it was so delicious. The seafood is always cooked perfectly here. We enjoyed our tapas so much that we ordered 2 more. First was the cebolla rice with bay scallops and peas. I have never had such tender bay scallops. And because we enjoyed it so much the first time, we had another order of the octopus. We were so anxious to have my mother taste the food that we forgot to take pictures of it. I can't recommend Paella enough. I can't wait to go back.

What a great find. We truly enjoyed our dining experience. The restaurant is nicely decorated with romantic lighting. They play some really good music which is not overpowering. We enjoyed a pitcher of sangria with several small plates which really filled us up at a reasonable price. We started with a selection of Spanish cured meats which were delicious along with a plate of various Spanish cheeses which were divine. Next we ordered the grilled squid which was plated with a wonderfully dressed salad. Also we had the croquetas which were so silky smooth. Loved them!! Last but definitely not least we had the Chorizo and morcilla. Loved the chorizo but not too crazy about the morcilla. Overall we had an excellent dining experience. The staff was great, very attentive and helpful, ask for Stella. We will definitely come back and next time I will be trying the paella.

Goat cheese tapas

Yummo! One of my dearest friends had a surprise birthday party hosted here for her a few weeks back. Her parents organized the party for about 30 people, and it was a good fit for the space. It was held downstairs in a wine-cellar type space with a beautiful fresco of a Spanish landscape painted on the back wall. Since there were so many of us, lots of main dishes and tapas alike were ordered. I sampled quite a few, and overall found the food to be really, really good. It's been several years since I've had actual paella in Madrid, but the dish I had seemed to live up to my memories! I had the classic Valenciana paella, which came with saffron rice, sausage, chicken, and seafood (to include shrimp, mussels, etc). It easy fed two of us gals, so for $22, that is a steal. I also had the crab cake, which didn't really make much of an impression on me taste-wise (although it was MASSIVE in size!). My favorite tapas was probably the goat cheese - an enormous serving, all hot and gooey, served in a thick tomato and garlic coulis, paired with some crunchy garlic crostinis. I could have used a few more crostinis to polish off the cheese - there was just so much! I had glasses of both the white and red sangria and found it to be pretty decent, but certainly not strong (if that's what you're after). Could be perhaps because we were served en masse in pitchers, so an individual drink might be made with a little more kick to it. Considering the size of the group and the number of orders, the staff did a good job. We were all pretty hungry by the time the food finally arrived, but I understand feeding a crowd that size takes a lot of coordination! Overall, a really great (and tasty!) experience.

Appetizers were very good a bit small though. Desserts where very good. Bread was the best I've had. They serve these rolls with tongs because they come out good and hot. The olive oil you dip the bread into very good. We had the seafood Paella. Huge disappointment. Rice was like glue and seafood was all way over cooked. Dried up and chewy. No seasoning and very bland. I know bay scallops are on the small side but, these where tiny and flavorless. Like they where sprinkled on the dish frozen then over cooked in oven. For a restaurant that's called Paella I'd expect a much better Paella. I would go back again though. Just not order the Paella. To be fair I am picky when it comes to food but, there was 5 of us and we all where saying the same.

So now I'm back in Connecticut, in a different town, and dealing with different things…read more Enjoyed an evening at Tablao, an easy walk from SoNo train station. We had a great table by the window. The waitperson was gracious. Our group met to discuss an important matter so we were a bit slow ordering. Our food was fantastic. I especially enjoyed my Paella And another diner loved the Brussels Sprout Salad with truffle vinaigrette, and the Beet Salad. My other companion thought the grilled octopus was special. The Albarino we ordered was delicious too. The only downside I can think to mention is the musical journey beginning in the 80s! And we were still able to have our serious conversation. I will be returning.

The atmosphere felt very grown and polished without being overly formal...the kind of place that's lively and stylish but still comfortable enough to relax and hang out. I was surprised by the Spanish stuffed peppers; It was better than I expected, filled with rich, slow-braised oxtail short rib ragu that was incredibly tender, savory, and full of deep flavor. The slight smoky sweetness from the peppers balanced the hearty meat perfectly. Such a unique memorable tapa. Perfect spot for drinks, sharing plates, and a fun night out.

On 2/14-02/15, we came there for drinks and to have fun. What we thought would be a fun night…read moreturned sour at the end, very quickly. We were at the bar during closing time when a man approached one of our friends and told him he was going to slap him in the face (odd behavior from a grown man), and like any other person, our friend replied with "I dare you to, it will not be a good choice for you". They continued at this for a solid 3 minutes before security got involved and became aggressive towards our group more than the man who started it. When the bartender Samar saw what was going on (she witnessed the event), she tried to tell security and the owner that it was not us, but instead the other man. We were all kicked out, and one would think it would end there, but it did not. We were met with racist remarks and aggression from the security guard and the owner, who condoned it. When we were being kicked out the secuirty guard was shoving my husband, and once I saw that I clealry lost it and I was met with a sentence I never thought I'd ever hear "this is America, learn english", which is funny considering 1) I speak perfect english, 2) I have 0 accent, and 3) my spanish is actually horrendous. The owner was there when all of this was happening and did not get involved or tell his employee that it was not ok; instead, he watched and let it be. In this day and age, I find this be inappropriate and insane. We spent over $300 within 2 hours and will no longer be coming here, considering we were met with racism. We as consumers need to know where our money is going, and this establishment made it very clear where they stand. I only say this because, on our way to our car, we were approached by others who had experienced the same situation earlier that night. As a bar that relies on its consumers and is supported by minorities, this establishment should be ashamed.

"A birthday dinner that actually felt like one."…read more Sienna Ristorante gets the balance right in a way most places don't. The space immediately stands out with a clean, modern feel that still feels warm, not staged or overly polished. It sets the tone before the food even hits the table. The meal itself followed through. The complimentary bread with oil was simple but done right, soft with a good crust and a clean, flavorful dip. We shared the wild mushroom arancini, and that was the first real standout. Crispy on the outside, rich on the inside, and the sauce was the kind you keep going back to without thinking. It carried the dish. For mains, I went with the wild mushroom pizza, which came out with a well balanced crust and just enough weight from the toppings without feeling heavy. The mushrooms were the focus and they delivered. The honeynut squash ravioli leaned more delicate, slightly sweet, and felt more composed than expected in a good way. Drinks held their own too. The Old Fashioned was clean and steady, while the lychee martini added something lighter and more refreshing to the table. They close the meal with biscotti and limoncello, which already would have been enough, but we added the tiramisu and that was the right call. It rounded everything out without feeling excessive, just a clean finish to a well paced dinner. Service matched the tone of the restaurant, attentive without hovering, and the pacing of the meal felt natural from start to finish. This is the kind of place that feels intentional. Not just good food, but a full experience that actually holds together. Easy to come back to, especially for something worth celebrating.
