A fun place, but rough around the edges.

*Updated to 1 star for being dirty. Watched someone behind the bar take out the trash, not wash their hands, and then start making drinks. Hell no.*

*Was originally a 3 star rating but down graded to 2 once I thought more about the hazard of having restrooms with multiple soap dispensers that are all empty with no paper towels. Are the staff washing their hands???*

Staff was friendly and helpful. The music is great, and the small dance floor in the bar area was great once took a breather after the meal. It is loud!

The nachos were loaded and good. The chilequiles were good, both the beef and chicken versions.

Trash in the plants next to our outdoor table, sticky table, restroom had NO soap and NOTHING to dry your hands. Under staffed on Labor Day weekend. One waiter and one person bussing tables. Had to go find a person to order.

Ceviche was alright. Mango threw off the flavor, might have been improved with more lime. It says it comes with platanos, which are just plain chips. Cucumber slices looked old so I didn’t feel comfortable eating them.

I’d be back and would enjoy myself, but would come more for the venue and not the food.

It was a rainy day, so I decided to catch their Flamenco show on Saturday, which comes with a dinner. The waitress’ recommendation was on point. Their drinks were the right one for the food and ambience.

The flamenco dancer ( I think her name was Tatiana) was amazing! OMG That lady knows how to entertain. Unfortunately the rest of the the experience wasn’t that awesome. They only had one kind of spanish wine at least that’s what the bartender told us, thank God it was good. The room for the show wasn’t close (private) just for us who paid for the dinner and show, it was open to anyone who walk by in the restaurant

Yes, let’s talk about this place. Please note, the tasting is based on the flamenco show and dinner. Flamenco dancers and guitarist? They dance, they play, they entertain. Food? Woh, please do not expect much. The paella passes but it’s missing the best ingredient (to me), Spanish sausage. Chicken is good, probably the best, Salmon is ok. Dessert wasn’t bad. The only drink done well it’s the Cadillac. Do not, and I warn you, please do not order an Old fashion. You will be beyond disappointed by what you receive.

MOST IMPORTANT (and the sole reason for leaving a review): CHECK YOUR BILL BEFORE PAYING/ TIPPING! Our party of two was charged a 20% “large party” fee- I didn’t check first and ended up tipping (30%) which I would not have done had a noticed that I had basically already been charged a tip. The menu does not match the online menu and does not offer many choices. We had the Calamari which was good, the Camarones Pasta which was ok but very watery, and the beef fajitas which was very good. We arrived just as they opened and were seated right away but had to choose the patio because it was sweltering hot inside.

The food and service were great. Came on a Saturday night and the street was closed down to accommodate the restaurants. We were immediately seated, and ordered a sangria. We then ordered the salmon plate and shrimp plate. Both were very good. The service was great also

Wish I could give zero stars.

I rarely leave reviews, but this experience was truly awful. I called ahead at 8:40 PM and was told the kitchen closed at 9:30 PM. After driving two hours, we arrived before 10:00 PM only to be told the kitchen actually closes past 10 PM, already confusing.

I had placed my order online/text, but when we arrived, they claimed they forgot to put in the order and were out of the exact entrée and dessert we drove all that way for. I had already paid for a Groupon, so I couldn’t just leave. We were hungry and frustrated.

The security guard saw us walk in but stayed on his phone and didn’t greet or direct us. Later, he came inside and asked for our IDs, we told him we weren’t drinking, just eating. Then when we sat on the patio, still annoyed about the food situation, the host brought us a lemonade but forgot the water we requested. The same security guard then loudly asked in front of several people, “Are you drinking water?”, completely unnecessary and embarrassing, especially since I had already said I don’t drink.

To top it off, they brought our food out to-go even though we were dining in. When we told the security guard, he looked annoyed. The host then came out and said, “I thought you wanted it to go since you were driving,” without ever asking us.

It was clear they didn’t want us there. We left hungry, tired, and disappointed, only to realize they messed up our order and forgot our nachos.

Unprofessional, disorganized, and rude. Not worth the time or money. Do not recommend.

This place is disgusting. Stopped by about 30mins after opening on a Sunday. There were several staff members sitting around and there were no customers. The place smelled horrible. I stopped by to use the bathroom and order an appetizer. The bathroom was so filthy I couldn’t even use it. It looked like they hadn’t cleaned it all since the night before. The smell from the bathroom was spread throughout the restaurant. I would not trust this place at all. I doubt the kitchen is clean. I cannot believe that any employee could sit there and smell that bathroom and not be bothered if they did care about hygiene. There were no customers, somebody could’ve been cleaning that bathroom. Here are some pictures of one of the bathrooms. I took my food to go to avoid throwing up, then promptly threw it away outside.

So I saw a Groupon for this for ultimate experience flamenco show which I thought was good idea to take my friend for her birthday here. But after reading reviews it was free anyway so I decided to not spend money on Groupon and just reserve a table. But that was not the case. The restaurant has now put some shower curtain to cover the show, which I was still able to see from outside and was not impressed at all. The food was ok. Some meat was hard some tender. I felt like they mixed some of meat with old and new meat.I had Lomo Salta do. It was pricey not worth money. Server didn’t come to table as often to check if we needed something. Service was mediocre. Sauce was missing from plate, and when wanted to order drink, no where to be found. Over all its good for just one time experience. Beware don’t spend the money on Groupon you will end up spending more than u need to. The show only lasts maybe 45 minutes.
