Michael HardingJune 5, 2018Ask for the Pappas Bravas even if they aren’t on the menu. Everything was delicious. The Gazpacho, the short rib & scallop paella, the pork belly and the bread with dip were all delicious!
Patio is one of the best in Columbus - gorgeous! Food is usually fantastic (I'm a Paella Barcelona addict) but we had a less than great experience this past week - hoping it was just an off night!!
Lana VenturaMarch 19, 2015The ambiance is amazing! Bartenders are knowledgeable. Try the tapas (Pintxos: anchovies, tuna). The charcuterie platter is imported from Spain and Pyrénées region. The pitcher of Sangria is a must.
This place is consistently awesome. Great food/cocktails and impressive wine list. Patio is also lovely. If the price tag scares you away, try coming for lunch - cheaper price for similar portions.- sara mae pickleAugust 15, 2016good spanish food & wine, attentive service, & beautiful patio. a great date spot for sure. gets extra busy on wknds tho so try to go at off times or there may be a wait
Cindy SantiagoFebruary 11, 2017Service is outstanding! Can't wait to visit again.Vegan options limited, but they have a Veggie paella so good and just let them know that you are vegan. Prices $$$- Cindy SantiagoDecember 9, 2016The food, the service was Outstanding! Prices $$ to$$$ Definetly can't wait to go again.

Josh AJuly 20, 2016Great place to go with friends and try lots of small plates. The service was good. The food was good. The wine was yummy. Recommended!
Rhonda Rivas ⚾️October 14, 2013Great Spanish cuisine! The Paella is magnifico! Wait staff and atmosphere is wonderful. Can't wait to try dinner! Lunch is great!
HeidiAugust 22, 2015It was my first time going, great service and good food! I had the Paella de Mariscos.
jiresellDecember 21, 2015Great cocktails and tapas! Ate at the bar, bartenders were very friendly and offered wonderful recommendations from the menu!- J LJanuary 28, 2016Great Spanish wine selection. Tapas shine, entrees have well-cooked proteins but have a bit too much going on with the plate.
- Cindy SantiagoDecember 9, 2016Another tip, we are Vegans and they prepare the Veggie Paella without cheese! Excellent!!!
Amy DennisonNovember 12, 2013Absolutely amazing! Loved everything. Get the wine flights. You get 2 oz of 3 different wines of your choice.
AmateurConciergeMarch 2, 2017Food is passable, but nowhere near a 8.9. Everything was overly sweet: the peach soup is definitely from canned peaches, the cocktail was way to sweet as well
Kayla JohnsonApril 20, 2015Went here as Plan B when visiting for a concert. Our waiter was fantastic, but the food was beyond mediocre. Everything on the chefs menu was basic and didn't show much skill. Cheese plate was good.
Chelsea ClementsMarch 11, 2013Paella is great. Be prepared to wait awhile for your drinks from the bar when ordering from your table.
Tiffany BrennanApril 10, 2010Go with the Tapas tasting! Great small plates and more than enough for one! The blueberry creme brulee is pretty tasty too.
Scioto ValleyJune 15, 2011Best patio in Columbus. Enough said. (Well, that and half-off tapas on Monday!)
Gabe TipperyDecember 31, 2011Russell is the server to have! Hard working and detail oriented… spot on!
Stephanie LivingstonJuly 15, 2019Paella is a little overrated here. Wasn't really seasoned to my liking. No flavor. I will try something else again just to make sure.

Matt CookJuly 31, 2013Pretty underwhelming for the price. Expected big flavor, did not deliver. Foursquare Checkin deal was A-OK, though!
ᴡ MezaMarch 16, 2018This is *not* traditional Spanish food nor tapas. Food was served cold -- avoid!
