Anson Wang: Can't go wrong here. Stand outs include truffle mac n cheese, crispy chicken, mapo tofu, kimchi paella
Jess Naldo: Let's be real: You came here for the adult "Capri Sun," but food, you can't go wrong with any of the tapas. Faves are the avocado, tacos, kimchi paella, soft shell crab and the steak. So, everything.
Jess L: Edamame dumplings were insanely good. Avocado starter (fresh, good flavor), kimchi paella, mapo tofu (spicy for sure) were all delicious. Service was very friendly, accommodating, and compassionate

Laura M.: Amazing paella and a serious deal in lobster - doesn't get much better than this!
Adrianne Benzion: Seafood paella w/ lobster is delicious.
Thomas Green: Awesome, hard to find busy Old School Spanish. Great Paella, veal dishes, and the mussels are pure heaven. The waiters are in their 60s and we're not sure if they are speaking English, but who cares.
Andrew Lim: Fantastic paella - I've had a few of the non-seafood ones (I don't like seafood) and they've all been great.
Michelle Chan: Probably one of the best paellas I've had! The socarrat and arroz negro paella are my fav! Get the pitcher of red sangria its worth it! And try the croquetas of the day! All tapas you can't go wrong
Trang Tran: Best paella I've had in NYC. Didn't think I would enjoy the Carne Paella as much as I did. Tapas (fried artichokes, bacon/dates, sizzling shrimp, octopus) & flan are great too.

jon ferrer: I've drank many an Estrella here while watching La Liga / Spanish national team matches and all the Spaniards say this is the most authentic Spanish food in the city. The paella is a must!
Lenny Gallo: This place is the Eataly of Spanish food, but smaller. There paella is very good, but the rest of the place is just okay and overpriced for what you get.
Jon: Paella, Churro and Oysters but they are expensive
Foxxy B: They’ve got literally everything Spanish. Impressive jamón, cheese, & seafood selections. Flan, churros, paellas for days, jerez selection, pan con tomate, fresh gazpachos, etc. Impressive.
