  The vibe on a Saturday night in this place screams Spain. We were lucky enough to get seated at a high top which I think adds so much to the fun Spanish experience. The sounds of the kitchen with sounds of pots and pans and plates and glasses clanking, the hustle and bustle of the wait staff, the elbow to elbow with the other parties beside you, the dark ambiance that sets the mood.... for those who have been to Spain...you know. We ordered a smorgasbord of food for a party of 6 to share family style. One recommendation from our waiter that I would have never known to try is their roti. This roti is now a staple in my life! Or at least everytime I come here lol. This is a must go to. And! Even a must take someone to if they're coming from out of town.

  Disappointing service led to disappointing food. *This is NOT the best Spanish food in Austin* When our waitress came to the table, the very first thing we said was: “We want to order the paella now, we know it can take a while.” After that, we ordered drinks and appetizers. About 40 minutes later, she came back and asked if we wanted anything else (she never put in the paella order and told us we never asked for it *wow*). We walked her through our initial conversation to help her remember what we ordered, and only then did she submit the order. When the paella finally arrived, it looked like it had been put together in a hurry from other paellas. The peas were even still partially frozen. The waitress apologized and offered us a free dessert, which we accepted, then we asked for the check, when the check arrived we notice that she added the dessert to the bill. Overall the whole experience felt messy and unprofessional. Patatas bravas: 3.5 out of 5 Grilled bread: 4 out of 5 Paella de Mariscos: 1 out of 5 Still water: they didn’t have any Draft beer: took forever to bring it to our table

  I just went for some authentic Spanish paella and was surprised at how delicious all the food was! All the tapas we tried were delicious but to our surprise there was live flamenco dancers and singing. Great little trio of musicians as we watched the fascinating flamenco dancers! Will definitely go back when in San Antonio!
