"Look, the paella valenciana at this family-run restaurant in Beverly Grove is perfectly fine. It’s a little too soft and wet for our liking, but that never stops us from ordering it when we come here. A night at this tavern-like spot is one the best overall Spanish meals in LA, complete with warm staff that plates this risotto-like dish tableside. Order the paella as a centerpiece to a meal that ideally includes a bottle of tempranillo and plenty of tapas." - sylvio martins
