“ Josiah was our waiter and was above & beyond outstanding. He made sure our orders were correct and that our meal was to satisfaction. He offered if it wasn't then he'd make sure it was fixed. He was extremely friendly bc of him I'd return if I was back in town. The menu is different than I'm used to. Its basic one item, no sides. This makes it a Lil more pricey than normal but the food was really delicious. I had the sea bass and Brussel sprouts. I don't even like Brussel sprouts and they were really fantastic. Atmosphere outside had a ambiance was fantastic. Heaters available. All the staff that I interacted with were very pleasant. This was my first time here and I live in North Carolina. I would highly recommend for a friends night out, eating solo or looking for a date night spot. ”
“ The best place to enjoy the ambiance and food. Go here with your loved one or by yourself, it will not disappoint you. Our server, Madison, was the sweetest and she took care of us very well. Very welcoming staff. Okay enough about the amazing staff, the food here is mind blowing as well. Like every dish that we ordered turned out to be just mouth watering. I never knew foodgasm until I felt it today. Definitely try the stuffed mushroom, apple and Brie pizza. The drinks were great too. A little overpriced but I guess it’s worth it!? ”
“ Delicious tapa’s and drinks! Everything I got was amazing!! Not pictured is the sea bass which had an incredible taste profile, I ate the whole thing. Service was wonderful as well! ”
“ I was so impressed with the food here! I had never heard of it before I was walking by one day and decided to try it, turns out there are multiple locations but I’ve only ever tried the Glendale location at Americana. I ordered the Glazed Pork Belly, Fried Chicken Sliders and Oaxacan Pasta which were soooooo amazing! The service was good, just what you expect from a restaurant, nothing noteworthy to report on that front. The atmosphere was so lively, not an empty seat in the house, everyone was having a great time. My friend and I even got to know our neighboring customers, they were so friendly and it was such a great time to chat with them. Regarding the parking, from what i can tell it is part of Americana so you’d be using their parking structure. There’s plenty of parking but it’s recently become not-cheap. I couldn’t tell you for sure if they still have the first 90 minutes for free. There is also street parking options which cost a few dollars. If you don’t mind going out of your way to save a few dollars, you can park at the Glendale Galleria (large mall next to Americana) parking which is free and then walk over, though it’s not a short walk. Overall, can’t wait to go to this place again and have some of their great food! ”
“ Great tapas spot in a super busy area. I would highly recommend making reservations before you visit. We went before a show at the Alex theatre and everything we had was delish! We eat a lot and ordered the watermelon salad, beet salad, octopus, beef pita, sirloin steak .... we were still hungry so we then ordered the shawarma tacos and glazed pork belly. There were two of us and we polished everything off and had room for desert! We got the pistachio desert (don't remember the name) and it was really good. Would definitely come back if we come by this area again. ”
