Costa Brava Bistro

"Went to this place for a family dinner. Was a little annoyed to not get the menu for a way too long duration of time. Also despite half of the table being served drinks, 3 of us had to ask for a beverage ourselves, but that’s just me being nitpicky. For appetizers, I shared a salad with my friend, though personally not my favorite, she and everyone else enjoyed it. Entrees, I got the salmon with cauliflower, and though I enjoyed it, it felt a bit overpriced for what I got, I was still pretty hungry afterwards (but that could totally just be a me thing).The salmon itself was small but it was crispy and well season, and whatever cauliflower thing surrounding it was was extremely buttery and delicious. My friend got the paella and personally I believe that was the weakest entree. I’ve had more authentic and flavourful paella for half the price for more people and it just personally wasn’t my favorite. My favorite dish, that I wish I got, was the scallops. I thought I didn’t like scallops because whenever I get them, they’re usually rubbery and gritty and overly salty. These on the other hand were the best scallops I’ve ever had, smooth and not chewy, flavorful but not tasting like sand. It was delicious. The risotto was also creamy and delightful. As for desserts, was midly disappointed. I got the strawberry dessert and it kinda tasted like something I could get at IHOP. Someone else got a cheesecake and I personally disliked it heavily. It was for too savory and taste way too much like jsut a slice of cheese. My friend got the apple tart and it was probably the best out of the three. Sweet and delightful. Overall I just think this place is a bit too pricy for me considering its options, but the rissota was incredible that I’d love to go again to get it myself. The atmosphere was nice and I was told the wine and cocktails were delicious (I don’t drink)"

"Went in for an impromptu dinner with a girlfriend. Food was amazing! Fresh and delicious. Staff was so friendly even though we were clearly the last people in there. Such a gem in the local neighborhood. Would definately come back!!"

"Very average suburban restaurant. Would never go back. Took 30 min to be given a menu. Had to ask for water. 98% of there wine list was over $60 a bottle. Food was bland over cooked and sauces watery. Basic drinks not available in bar, coffee was awful and wouldn’t take an American Express card. Pretending to be a fancy river oaks restaurant with similar prices."

"I went to the place for dinner with my girlfriend. We're from Italy and went in Spain for some times and having dinner here was literally like being transported to Spain again! Everything was perfect from the service to the food, it has been a nice culinary experience and I'd recommend this place to anyone! Usually I eat very fast, here instead I wanted to enjoy every single bite, slowly. The waitress helped a lot and suggested the best plates and wine. Only thing out of place in my opinion, we waited 30minutes at the bar because our table was not ready, from a place of this level I'd expect being offered something to drink during the wait. Anyway, definitely 5/5. See you again!"

"I've searched for years for a place that serves a classic french rabbit dish and I've finally found it! The flavor was perfect; delicate, tender, and satisfying. Just when I couldn't be more impressed, the espresso cake in a cloud blew me away. The service was above and beyond, waitstaff and manager were accommodating and knowledgeable. I ventured beyond my normal wine, and tried something new and don't regret it at all. This may be my new favorite fancy spot. Dress code - casual/elegant They also offer a prix fix menue at lunch for $45, but the rabbit is my highest reccomendation."
