Restaurant Review
Dining at this restaurant on Christmas Day came with its own set of highs and lows. To start, the decision to remain open on a major holiday deserves commendation, as it provided an option for those seeking a festive meal out.
The entrees were delightful—both the empanadas and soups (beef and onion) were flavorful and well-prepared. The bread basket and butter selections also stood out as a strong introduction to the meal. Unfortunately, the experience began to falter with the main dishes. The spicy vodka sauce pasta, while tasty, lacked the promised spiciness and did not meet the elevated expectations of a high-end establishment. The filet, sadly, was overcooked, resulting in a rubbery texture that diminished the overall enjoyment. Due to the long wait—over 90 minutes between the entrees and main course—we opted not to send it back.
Desserts were adequate but unremarkable, lacking the creativity one would anticipate at this price point. In contrast, the cocktails were exceptional, showcasing a level of craftsmanship that elevated the experience.
Service was a mixed bag. Our waitress, a gracious and attentive professional from Ecuador, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, apologizing for the delays caused by the evident short staffing. Her efforts were a highlight of the evening. Live entertainment, provided by a talented Spanish guitarist, added charm, but his brief performance of only two songs felt underwhelming.
The restaurant has great potential with its ambiance and promising menu, but it fell short of expectations due to execution issues, likely compounded by the holiday rush. While prices were on the higher side for Spain, the overall experience did not consistently align with the premium cost. Perhaps a visit on a less hectic day would yield a more polished dining experience.
