    Brunch: Latin fusion entrées are roughly $15 and include unlimited sangria. The drink special lasts until you finish your food so eat slowly!

    The rolls are delicious and different than any other place. The self serve sangria bar is great, but be prepared to buy a meal if you want it. Cool atmosphere too!

    The Spanish Harlem Sangria is so fabulous. I heart the whole sangria bar. Great brunch! Perfect for a brunch date with friends or your boo! Wonderful energy in this place.

    The Dulce appetizer, and Vaca Frita are hands down two of the best dishes on the menu. Eat them Now!!! While tour waiting chew on some sugar cane, from one of there awesome Mojitos!

    Ordered the "burrito sucio" aka dirty burrito. The portion size was good but it was flavorless and tasted like a pita wrap with just eggs and beans. All of the sangrias were awesome. They were strong!

    For dinner - in my opinion overpriced. The paella was good and the appetizer was ok....but I wouldn't race back to have dinner there. I guess the brunch is the way to try this place.

    Atmosphere is ultra swaggy. AYCD sangria is def live!! I recommend the Spanish Harlem. Price was pretty cheap to 35 bucks for a party of two. Can't beat that!

    Cute for a 1st date. Sexy but not too intimate/awkward. The "dulce" appetizer is AMAZING!

    If you're up for a trek to the Upper West, this is the place to go -- unlimited sangria bar w/ your meal. Don't mind if I do!

    Please ask my favorite bartender Luis to mix one of his poisonous solutions for you. Bet he will have you wasted before you finish your first drink! :-) tell him Elena sent you! Muah!

    Come early for the free sangria and don't be afraid to double fist. Last call on Sangria is around 3:30 so budget your time to sample all 8. Food is meh, come for the sangria.

    The vaca frita is good (not amazing) but it's more like brisket than skirt steak. The quesadilla doesn't have much cheese and is just ok. I loved the bread and sangria (tropical and monito)

    Go for brunch. Enjoy the free sangria - but observe the "rules" Make sure to stop the taco cart or request a visit. The smiley taco cart guy is fantastic! Get the pork.
