Their Gambas à la Plancha looked like grilled shrimp with just a dash of herbs, but the shrimp is of excellent quality and you can taste the freshness of the seafood. Their Paella Marisco was the highlight for me. I'm sure there are many wonderful paella places in Spain, but compared to the ones I've had in the U.S., this one excels in flavor. Their Pimientos de Padron is equivalent to grilled shishito peppers found in many Japanese restaurants back home, but I love the simplicity of this dish. A little bit of rock salt really brought out the natural flavor. The peppers weren't overcooked either. They were the perfect texture. Their Patatas Bravas, quite simple, but yummy nonetheless. Piping hot when it came out. Potatoes were crisp on the outside, moist on the inside. Nice size chunks. Once dipped in sauce, tasty! The Crema Catalana was a nice touch to end dinner. This dessert is the Spanish equivalent of creme brûlée. Theirs was definitely more substantial - richer than most creme brûlées that I've tried and the toasted top layer, definitely well executed. Easy to get to on foot if you stay at a hotel close by. Not too pricey either for the quality of food served. Will definitely eat here if I visit Spain again.

We started with calamari, potatoes, and nuggets -- a delicious warm-up act. Then came the squid paella, which was out of this world. We also couldn't resist the tomato toast, and I'm still craving more even though I'm too full to breathe, let alone order another bite. Oh, and don't skip the sangria -- it washes everything down beautifully.

The food, what can I say, it was delicious. Pictures don't do it justice, and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. The nachos were not at all what we expected, better than expected!

TLDR: COME FOR THE PINTXOS. HARD PASS ON THE MENU. Pintxos are self-serve at the bar. Once you're…read moredone eating, check out with the waiter--they'll count and charge you per toothpick. NGL, I'm someone who gets overwhelmed and gets tunnel vision. I'm a sheep following the shepherd-- in this case, if you throw your body & a menu in front of me, I'll easily walk in. I'd seen great reviews online about their namesake pintxos, but the menu had so many options and none that clicked with what I was looking for. I was hungry, so I sent it and ordered a few items from the classic tapas: the Squid in Ink Croquette and the Patatas Bravas. The croquette was incredible and so flavorful, while the Patatas Bravas were the complete opposite. The potatoes tasted bland and stale, and the sauce on top was just... meh. I hated how let down I was!! As I was finishing up my meal, I noticed a few people coming in and were sitting at the bar--not usually the most go-to spot when there are plenty of tables open. However, as soon as they sat down, they began grabbing items from the display. I went to check it out and lo and behold--PINTXOS!!! I asked my waiter, and he explained the process: pick what you want, enjoy and pay for what charge you grab at the end. And honestly? They looked and tasted so much better and were way more affordable than what I ordered!! Disappointed I spent so much money, but consider this a lesson for anyone reading!

We had the Bombon which is a shot of espresso with evaporated milk, great if you have a sweet tooth. For brunch we split the Benedict York and the Benedict Cecina. The York had a mayo based hollandaise with Iberian ham on it which didn't have much flavor but was still good. The Cecina had a mustard based hollandaise with corned beef which had a very good smoky flavor to it. Overall it was a nice atmosphere, great service d and great food. I would definitely recommend.

It was absolutely delicious with a thick creamy sauce and the Iberian ham definitely adds a unique flavor profile versus the stateside carbonara's I have had. The two red and white locally grown house wines were absolutely amazing as well and at four Euro's a generously poured glass was an amazing deal in my mind. I loved the white Portos so much that I actually went online to see if I could buy it in Michigan and unfortunately no luck! Relative to the restaurant and staff this was another big positive for this business. The restaurant has a very pleasant and inviting casual decor and the staff is super friendly with great follow up. Definitely strength on strength here at this restaurant where the overall dining experience was top-notch in my book. At 22 Euros for a oasta dish this good and two large glasses of nice locally produced wine is a deal in my book and worth checking out if you are in the area.

They have a ton of outdoor seating, which is where we sat as well. I assume there's a good amount of indoor seating, but we didn't get to check it out. This is one of the few places in Spain where we've seen actual cocktails. We started out with a cocktail each. I had the La Vanda del Pisco and my friend had the Thai Massage. Both were 11€. Both were lovely. For food, we shared 3 vegetarian dishes; Spanish tortilla with onion (7.90€) Eggs with pisto i.e. Spanish ratatouille (9€) Vegetarian paella (17.50€) Everything was super tasty. The tortilla was probably the most normal dish, but it was still really good. Surprisingly the eggs with pisto were my favorite. It was really flavorful. My friend's favorite was the paella. I'm not sure why this place only has 3.5 stars, but my friend and I really enjoyed our meal here.
