Good Food, slow service

by JR18

I will agree with others here. True, the food is amazing. Yes, the seafood is out of this world. I tried the lamb with mint and it was delicious.

However, aside from the food, the place itself is not all that. The decor is inviting for a private meal but the waiter staff was nowhere to be found. We needed a knife (dropped on the floor) and had to wait forever. I actually had to get up to get someone's attention. Not what I expected when paying about $40-45 per person (btw entrees and wine)..

The food is delicious but be prepared to wait.

Disapointed..

by gsreview

I was unhappy with the food...but more upset about the waiter giving himself more money than i tipped him. I do not recommend this place and if you do go here...make sure to check your bank statment. Waiters like to give themselves more than %18 tip! So watch out.

One Of The Best

by vidyoh

By far, one of the best Spanish restaurants not only in jersey, but the tri-state area. As good as El Faro in NYC. Anything with seafood is a classic. Green, Ajillo or red sauces don't dissapoint.

• Pros: fresh seafood, great service
• Cons: location
