★★★★★ 5.0 RobertsMom NC · Jan 2026

We had a delicious dinner. They had a paella special that night so we put in an order right away as that always takes extra time. Honestly my favorite food was the tomato’s on bread. It was sooo delicious. I could’ve had a lot of those as my entree - definitely worth a try. Drinks were delicious. Paella and the bean appetizer were delicious. Everything tasted fresh. Staff was attentive. They were very busy but we had an early reservation and snagged a great booth. I would strongly recommend making reservations.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Leah Cox · Feb 2026

The vibe here was very good, the service was good, not overly attentive but still good. The food was good not great, wine selection was limited but adequate. All in all it was a good dining experience but nothing special enough to bring me back again, especially for the prices attached to food that didn’t do much for me.

★★★★★ 5.0 Luisa Peñaflor · Dec 2025

Went here for a birthday dinner, and we cannot stop talking about how wonderful our experience was. Our server was super kind and knowledgeable, and every single dish tasted out of this world— especially the ribs and tuna. Such a cool establishment right on Franklin. Cannot recommend enough!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Troy McHenry · Dec 2025

This has become my favorite new restaurant in the triangle. My wife took me here for a second time to celebrate my birthday and we shared perhaps seven different small plates, all wonderful and I think the tab was just at $100. Everything was incredibly fresh and you could tell the ingredients were all chosen with care. For those who dine solo, I actually think this would be a great restaurant to do so since they have an inviting counter where you can sit, watch the open kitchen prepare the courses for the whole restaurant.

★★★★★ 5.0 Linda I · Oct 2025

Excellent! Great food. Great service. Great decor. Love the complimentary sparkling water. Many dishes surprised me. Very dark in the back. Will come back for the dishes we didn’t try. And best of all it’s a Resy restaurant so the new Amex Platinum credit will work here. This place fills up quickly so make a reservation.
