We really enjoyed our dinner! Everyone was so welcoming! The food was amazing. The atmosphere exactly as I like. So romantic 🔥 This is the first time I’ve tried paella. And believe me, this drink is amazing.

What an incredible experience, it was like dining in a five star restaurant in Europe or South America and it’s right up the road in Riverside. Food was absolutely top notch and the ambiance is very elegant, perfect for a date night. My wife is gluten free and they were very accommodating. The service was attentive and friendly and the pacing is European so be prepared to take your time and soak it in as your food is being prepared fresh from scratch. Couldn’t recommend this place enough.

We tried this place after driving by it a few times and it didn't disappoint! The ambiance was 10/10 such a beautiful establishment! You can tell they paid attention to details. Our server was amazing! He made sure to be attentive and super friendly. And then then food! Sooo good we got a couple appetizers and entrees and it was perfect! Food was good quality and flavor well. They had a large menu for food and drinks so there's something for everyone there. So glad to see an establishment like this pop up in this area and I will definitely be back!!

First time trying but definitely not the last. Great place to take out the wife on a night out. Great food, great service, you definitely have to try this restaurant for yourself. Make a reservation. Diego was a great server.

From start to finish Robert and Jinny did an awesome job making sure I was comfortable. We had a bit of a delay in food delivery due to a 30 person party ahead of us and the owner Douglas made sure we were taking care of I must say it is refreshing seeing an owner and staff take pride in their work will be back for sure. Grabbed an order of the Empanadas which were delicious just make sure you order some cheddar cheese for them. Smoked Old Fashion is a must Robert makes a coffee smoke bubble that will drive your taste buds insane. Jinny is the ultimate ppl person she checks in on you even when you are not her customer its very refreshing and her drink knowledge is top notch knew what I was thinking before even saying it lol nice touch.
