For the price, I was expecting much better. The only flavoring they seemed to use was alcohol. Even the alcohol (sangria) had extra alcohol. Get your customers buzzed enough, and they will think anything tastes good.
What's worse, everything seemed from frozen or out of a can. Nothing seemed from fresh ingredients. Even the dessert (famed pine nut role) seemed mass produced - not made on premises or at a local bakery. It had that preservative after-taste.
In addition, it was crowded and noisy; which is not unexpected for a NYE. Service was OK, but everything was very tight. Waiters whizzing by made me dizzy. And the acoustics were horrible. They even prepared dishes on a cart, blocking the front entrance of the dining room. The atmosphere would have been great, if it was half-full.
It was not at all worth the $104 for two. Do yourself a favor, go to Tapas Teatro, a few blocks north for a far better dining experience from Spain. Another great choice is The Helmand, only a short walk away, or down to Ban Thai. All 3 have great food, atmosphere, and moderate prices.
