What People Are Saying About La Paella East

In Short – This Spanish standby is a festive (and inexpensive) spot to feast with friends. While couples mob the diminutive ground-level dining room, groups are dispatched to the long tables in the candlelit den below. The eponymous paellas--five different varieties--are the main draw, with the couple dozen tapas, ceviches, sangria tying for second. The Spanish wine list includes a nice selection of Riojas.

Good food. Great Sangria. Two complaints for owners/managers

by ksartre

This is a great spot for paella, but not the best paella by any stretch. Of course, if you've never eaten paella in Spain, especially Valencia, this may be wow-worthy for you. We got the seafood paella and the best part of paella is the crunchy crust at the bottom of the pan. well, there was no such thing.

And another thing, for the owners, when you have a party who's spending a couple of hundred dollars on their food and drinks, you don't charge them $3 for hot sauce on their bill. Have some class! Ok? Thanks

  • Pros: food

Wonderful Restaurant

by mystee

I love this place! The food is so tasty, and the Sangria is the best I've ever had. The staff is very polite and friendly. Also, the restaurant as actually open from noon every day, not 5:30 pm as mentioned here. I went in the afternoon. I would imagine at night it probably gets a little tight in there. But the ambiance is nice too.

  • Pros: Food, Ambiance, The best Sangria
  • Cons: a few blocks from subway
