Fantastic restaurant! It was our first time and we loved it. The staff was very friendly and efficient. The octopus was cooked to perfection. We also enjoyed the chorizo/fig, croquets with manchego, mussels, calamari, papas bravas and dessert. The guys sitting across from us said the paella was amazing. Can’t wait to return.
I only recently learned that this tapas bar existed in Middletown’s Main Street Market, and I’m so glad that I visited! They had a huge menu with choices to fit anyone’s preferences. Highlights for us were the paella, croquettes, and even the Brussels salad because it had such a great truffle flavor! Their drinks were fantastic - we’re still talking about the Barbie one we had in a unique glass! Definitely save room for the delicious chocolate strawberry cake for dessert. Loved the ambiance, and our server was professional and attentive!
It's your neighborhood Spanish restaurant. That's if you live in Middletown, CT. Parking is convenient and close. You get to choose if you prefer al fresco or dine inside. Either way, you'll be treated to good Spanish cuisine. Entree portions are large and best shared. Although they have a selection of meat tapas, we opted to have seafood on this warm, pleasant summer day. Do take your time and savor this delight.
