A friendly atmosphere and genuine Spanish dishes - recommendable.   (Criollo - November, 2008)

Overall 8.3 - Food 10, Ambience 8, Value 7, Service 8

The seafood platter is really the best one i had through several Spanish restaurants. Garlic bread is nice and all the other dishes/tupos are pretty. However the size of dishes is a bit small. In total still a valuable place to go for enjoy ur dinner.   (Claire.H - See my reviews (7) - October, 2008)

Overall 6 - Food 5, Ambience 6, Value 5, Service 8

service was good, food was very plain, almost boring, have definately tryed better spanish food and sangria was one of the worst i have tryed. deserts were pretty good though, but overall not worth for the money we have paid....   (June, 2008)

Overall 7 - Food 7, Ambience 7, Value 6, Service 8

Good food, good company, good service, however nothing particularly special.   (June, 2008)

Overall 5.3 - Food 5, Ambience 6, Value 4, Service 6

The enviroment and the services are generally good, waiters are very nice and willing to serve. However, the dishes sizes were rather small   (May, 2008)

Overall 7.5 - Food 8, Ambience 7, Value 7, Service 8

The food, the ambience and the service were great. The only thing I found was that we were a table for 5 cramped in the very corner of the restaurant so it was a bit cramped.   (May, 2008)

Overall 9 - Food 9, Ambience 10, Value 8, Service 9

Fantastic venue, warm feel, attentive staff and excellent food. We shared tapas between 8 people, cost about $30/head. The menu was a little confusing but the waitress was really helpful. Would definitely go back.   (May, 2008)

Overall 8.3 - Food 9, Ambience 8, Value 8, Service 8

Nice food, especially for the seafood. Valuable to organize a dinner there~ recommend.   (Claire.H - See my reviews (7) - May, 2008)

Overall 9.5 - Food 10, Ambience 9, Value 10, Service 9

Food is amongst the best food (spanish or otherwise) I have ever eaten. Best with a small group (6 friends) so you can share more yummy tapas. Noisy on the weekends, go weeknight if you want a more intimate dinner.   (Lil_lady - March, 2008)

Overall 9.5 - Food 10, Ambience 9, Value 10, Service 9

The food is amongst the best food I have ever eaten Spanish or otherwise. Great for a small group, gets a bit noisy but only adds to the generally mad spanish ambience.   (March, 2008)
