The portions are good and filling. I can't wait to go back. This place has been on my radar for years, and I'm mad it took me so long to get to this delicious food.

If you come to Soda City Market and looking for great food, then you must have seen this stall with…read moreintrigued parties of people staring at the beautiful display of seafood with rice. These giant paella pans are extremely eye catching due to all the colorful ingredients used to make the dish. It's hard not to stand there staring for a while, smell that delicious seafood flavor, and ultimately make it your entree of the day at the market. For me, a paella is only perfect is it has a crispy crust to the bomba rice, widely known as soccarat in Spain. That crunchy and smokey texture adds a lot to this particular dish. However, with that said, they really use a lot of seafood and give this rice such a great taste. It's hard to complain much when you are enjoying your food ... ... and I certainly did.

There was also a nice roasted red pepper and black olive salad that came with it. My only criticism is that I felt like the portion of octopus was small for $21. Then I decided to try the Boeuf bourguignon. This was definitely comfort food. A very tasty beef stew, but a bit different recipe than I'm used to for this dish. Theirs has potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, and onions. But the broth tastes like they might also use a touch of tomato paste. I could be wrong. Nonetheless, it was tasty and the thick broth was yummy on the piece of crusty bread it was served with. I'm tempted to come back and order the entree size of the octopus for $32 and see what the portion size is. Service was excellent. Very attentive.

The food is simply incredible. My husband had the Caesar Salad and the Boeuf Bourguignon. I had the Burrata Caprese Salad and the Rousseau Pizza.

For dessert, we took the advice of our server and ordered the Ube Basque Cheesecake. Wow! (Pictured is the portion we brought home.) I'm a good cook, so when eating out, I expect to have a meal that surpasses my skills. And this most certainly did. The presentation was excellent. I don't give the ambiance a 10, but that's so secondary to the meal I just enjoyed. Thank you to Chef Emma and team!

My family and I went for dinner and waited around 15 minutes for a table. The holiday-themed drinks were very fun. I had the Silver Bells, my sister had the Santa's hat and my mom had a holiday margarita. Mine was a nice play on a Paloma. Very fun!! My sister said hers was sweet and she wasn't the fondest. The holiday margarita was tart but I liked it. My mom preferred something a little sweeter. For the food: many menu items were Hispanic-Asian inspired. Reading these, I was intrigued in the food taste and presentation. It just fell short because of carrying on the bandwagon of Asian-inspired food, but then also mixing different Asian cuisines. First, I was curious as to how a bao bun was labeled as a Korean bao bun. The bao bun is Chinese. So if the description on the menu had more details, maybe I could've understood the Korean side. Next, a karaage orange chicken. Orange chicken is Chinese cuisine and karaage is Japanese. This chicken wasn't crispy and the flavor left a lot to be desired. The side of sticky rice that came with the chicken was cold and not sticky rice. Just regular white rice. Next: options. There were a lot of food options so I was impressed with that! I ordered tacos and was impressed with two of the three. The birria taco was good, not great. The barbacoa was not spicy as advertised but nicely moist. The shrimp tapajo only had two shrimp and they needed more flavor in them. I got the two taco platter and then an extra taco. I wish there was a three taco option for the platter. There is 2 tacos and 1 side, 5 tacos and 2 sides and then 10 tacos and more sides. If you want American food (nachos or a burger), you're in a good place. If you want to actually understand the inspired flavors of Asian cuisine, I would pass. But this also comes from an Asian person who likes to cook across the different cuisines. The atmosphere was fun, the staff were nice, the basic food was good.
