The service made up for the food. It was very disappointing. Out of the four of us, only one ate most of his food because frankly he eats everything. The rest of us packed most of our food to go despite the fact that we were hungry. The issues varied from dry chicken, undercooked and under seasoned meet. How can you have a soupy yet dry paella. This tells me the rice was cooked recently but the seafood was reheated. Again, lacked flavor. We wish the food matched the atmosphere.
