Spanish Diner

"I just came home from here. It's New Years Eve. They had a 5 course menu planned for the night. My goal was to try everything. So I ordered for 2. I'm not a drinker of alcoholic beverages, so I got the bottle cola and Sprite instead. I got the tomato bread and salad first. Both were delicious! Next up I got a shrimp and crab meat salad and fried potatoes. Potatoes were a bit spicy, but the taste of both plates were great! Then came the shrimp bowl and calamari. I had to ask for lemon to put over the calamari because it was a bit bland, but after I got lemon slices, both plates were flavorful and delicious. The main course meals after eating a bunch of delicious food, were a bit disappointing. I got the lamb which was severely underdone. They took it back, but instead of a fresh plate my current pieces were simply pan seared again which made the outside hard, but the inside still undercooked. The other main course I ordered were the meatballs. Definitely great in taste, but very "different" in texture. These meals could've been better hence the 4 stars for food. For dessert I got the flan and fruit salad and both tasted fabulous. The service was amazing in spite of the main course issues. I tip very well for good service and that is exactly what our waitress received. I'll definitely be back!"

"In my experience we did order a dessert and it was okay. The shrimp was good. But the coke was $6 per bottle and it was over priced I will not be going there again."

"“I highly recommend this restaurant in Bethesda. It offers a spacious dining area with a lovely patio. The food is not only delicious but also budget-friendly on Mondays and Tuesdays, where you can enjoy excellent paella at half price. Moreover, the service is impressively responsive, even when you have a complaint. It’s a fantastic spot for dining!”"

"Service was spot on, ambiance was nice, drinks were fine,small plate food was quite good, but I was disappointed in the main dish. The paella was quite pungent in odor, and that was reflected in the taste. I don't think I would visit for dinner again, but a happy hour wouldn't be out of the question."

"Very interesting flavors. This restaurant is worth a visit. If I had time, I would have tried the jambalaya, which takes 45 minutes to prepare. It looks like it would be delicious. Con: We had a party of 10 and they split us up. The restaurant was not crowded and we were seated far away from each other. This was a business lunch, where remote workers were meeting their co-workers in person for the first time. That was a smite bumming."
