“ Awesome food and service you would not expect from such a small restaurant. Everything was amazing and I'm so happy I could show off this nice place to my friends who were visiting during winter break. If you have a big group or are planning on eating on the weekend, definitely reserve seats. Order the paella beforehand to reduce waiting time and it will be done exactly on the dot for your reserved time. ”
“ Very cozy and family feeling place. The food is absolutely great and authentic, plus the flavor and aroma of the Paella is damn good. The almond Spanish cake is a must try btw, even if almonds don’t suit your taste buds much, they just work in the cake. More or less a take out place since the overall eating area inside is very small but feels somewhat spacious when eating. The staff is one of the best parts, they are extremely tentative and treat you with the upmost respect as if you were family. ”
“ Popular Spanish restaurant in Princeton. The seafood paella is absolutely delicious! Since Paella takes time to cook, They can take order ahead of time. I called 35 minutes ahead of arrival, and can start eating very soon after siting down, amazing service! ”
“ I had their veggie paella, papas bravas and flan. Everything was delicious and very large portions, perfect for sharing and very reasonably priced. Great service, but only 6 tables, seating a total of 20 people, so make reservations if possible. ”
“ Everything here is AMAZING! It’s my first visit and I really really enjoyed the delicious food. The quality of the food is beyond satisfying. I don’t usually give reviews or comments on Google Map but I am doing it now because of how happy I am with this place! The staff were so friendly and really gave great recommendations. I told them I will certainly be back and I am going to bring a lot of people to visit! ”
“ Must try. The restaurant is pretty small with very few indoor tables and some outdoor tables. However there's plenty of dishes to choose from appetizers, tapas, paellas to deserts. The portions are also plentiful. Loved their squid, meatballs and the potatoes which they brine before cooking. Really good. Definitely going back to try the other dishes! ”
“ This is the best paella I ever tried in the state. And is not that expensive! I drove from North Carolina for the paellas! ”
“ I found this place on Google Maps while on business in town. A small restaurant with a great feel of authentic and well prepared food. There are only 5 tables and probably two people working there. The whole experience took me back to Spain. When in the area do not miss this place. ”
