We came in with high hopes, excited by a friends recommendation for the paellabut sadly, we left completely disappointed. We ordered two paellas (both in 3-person portions): one seafood, one squid ink. Along with that, we tried the lamb chop, oxtail meloso, garlic shrimp, octopus leg, and octopus carpaccio. Unfortunately, the paella rice was far too soggy and lacked the rich, layered flavors we usually expectit was overwhelmed by a single, flat squid note. To make things worse, the server didnt ask if wed like to take a photo of the paella before serving; they jumped straight into plating it for sharing. The highlights of the meal were the croquettes and garlic shrimp. Ironically, the arroz under the lamb chop had a better paella-like texture and far more balanced seasoning. Overall, this will most likely be a one-time visit for us. Were left wondering if the portioned paella cooking method affected the taste and texture. Also, for parties over six, be aware they add a 22% gratuity after tax, which is worth noting.
