"This Little Havana classic feels like a Disney pavilion. There are stained glass windows, a low wooden ceiling, mounted trophy animals, and a running waterfall by the entrance. Servers are dressed in red traje corto outfits and a wandering troupe of guitarists serenade guests as they eat gambas al ajillo. But this is a locals spot, not a tourist trap. The paellas are delicious, so is the crema catalana, and the servers have been working here since the '80s. It’s a great option for big groups and events. The food is a bit pricier than other Spanish restaurants around town, but it's been honed with the kind of precision you can only get after four successful decades of wedding rehearsals and subsequent anniversaries." - virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer
