Nous avons attendu., attendu une commande jamais servie & nous sommes décidés à partir! J'oubliais, un insecte nageait dans le verre de vin ! De plus, note salée par rapport à ce qu'on avait réussi à avoir dans l'assiette.View more
Jamaal was AMAZING. Food was AMAZING. Atmosphere was AMAZING. Visited from the States (french is essentially nonexistent) but Jamal was very accommodating & gave great recommendations. Definitely come!View more
Expérience catastrophique!!! D'abord, un insecte nage dans un verre de vin blanc, ensuite, on attend la commande, elle arrive enfin, sauf que la planche mixte, fromage charcuterie se réduit à une petite planche de fromage. Après réclamation & une long temps d'attente, nous nous passerons de la charcuterie & déciderons de partir. La note est cependant salée ou amère, pas un geste de la part des garçons ! Conseil, n'y allez pas...
Superbe restaurant, excellent produits & personnal de haut niveau!View more
Wonderful break from sightseeing. Service was friendly, food fabulous, sangria great! Despite being out of lobster rolls (which drew us to the restaurant) the charcuterie, potatoes, tomato bread, & iberico ham did not disappoint! Have eaten in Spain in several occasions, & this place was tops!View more

The food & service were good!! However, there is spider everywhere on the roof & it can fall on the food which is inacceptable, they have to clean that.View more
Nice place..but Terrible service... The waiters did not know what they are offering & the manager never approached to our group for solving any issues. Lack of options on food & alternatives After 30 min, we left the place & cancelled the order after a beer because bad & rude attitude of personnel & management With good service & attention to your customers anything could be handled Not an option with tons of alternatives on nice Montreal..View more
When your Spanish grandmother & mother validate the paella... You know you're in the right spot 🥘 Thank YOU for the discrete & warm service - if you have anything to celebrate it's the perfect place to take people ✨ We were 6 & we ordered everything we could on the menu, shared everything & LOVED it. Big BIG up for the desserts, keep a hungry spot for them 🤭 (+ Look at the beauty of these meals 📸)View more
Really liked that place! Tasty food, good service! Glad we chose this restaurant! Reminded me our trip to Barcelona.View more
The atmosphere/decor, the service, the drinks & the music were nice however; for the food we had tapas that indicate that they are to share on the menu. We got the plate for 15$ & received 3 cod fish balls again "to share". To share with who ? I'm just very dissatisfied & will not return.View more

Le décor est superbe & le service est excellent ! L'ambiance est agréable & la nourriture & cocktails sont délicieux ! La cuisine est réceptive aux demandes, selon les préférences & moi & la bel-famille avons beaucoup apprécié!View more
Had this place saved & happened to be in the area. In reading the reviews, didn't realize that Spanish food was such a polarizing topic. In our experience, we thoroughly enjoyed everything. We are well travelled domestically & internationally & found this to be as good & tasty as multiple cities in Spain & no I'm not comparing it to touristy restaurants near popular locations. Each dish was legitimately tasty. Our favorite was the squid ink paella with the pulpa con patatas a very close second. Service was excellent, courteous & prompt. I also noticed a quality control reviewing before each dish was served. Recommended with enthusiasm.View more
