Great service, good food - the scallops and the churros were delicious. The seafood was extremely overcooked in the Atlantica paella but the rice had wonderful flavour.

Decided to try this place one sunny afternoon as they have a gorgeous deck for seating outside. I have never had authentic Spanish food so I have nothing to compare with. There was no wait and I was seated right away. The service was impeccable, the drinks were cold and the food looked beautiful. The San Sabatian Serrano sailboat appetizers were fun and tasty. My main dish was flavourful but it was extremely oily. Not sure if that is normal but it was inedible to my standards. Over all nice place for a drink in the sun and an appetizer.

Honestly, the food was very average. I was expecting a lot more value and flavor on the $28 lobster roll. It was small and pretty pathetic. Definitely overpriced for what you are getting.

Had a fantastic time here. Our waiter Mike was very nice and attentive. We got the octopus and the seafood paella. Everything came out hot and in a timely manner. Most of all- food was delicious!

We were so disappointed in the food at this restaurant. We love eating out and love Spanish cuisine but this was an expensive mistake. The sangria was sweet & watered down, I rarely don’t finish a drink & I didn’t finish this. The octopus was overcooked and rubbery with a heavy sauce. The Serrano ham in the salad was not very fresh. The bill was extraordinary for mediocre food. We wanted to find a place to enjoy Spanish food & did not find it here.

This is a great dining spot for tapas and paella. I’ve been meaning to try it for a while and it did not disappoint!
Service is good, quick, and attentive.
Food is tasty, and definitely recommend a paella as they are generous in size and very delicious.

Good food, never had tapas before so it was an experience for sure, order a paella for a main and go with friends to share!

Little gem where it feels like being back in Spain, bit pricey but the food is well worth it!

Great service. Well informed waiter that went through the menu with us. The food was fresh and traditional Spanish. The Old Fashioned cocktail was ok.too much ice for a drink that shouldn't have but one large chunk of ice.

PAUL and the chefs were absolutely amazing! It was my birthday (my bff shared that fact!) We ate and thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. We also ordered dessert, choros dipped in chocolate! Paul was sweet, and brought mine out with a birthday candle glowing ️. That was so lovely and made my whole weekend.

Kudos to you and all the staff there on the evening of May 28th. You, the chefs, the food, everything made a fan out of us both and we will be back again soon! ️

The service is really nice but we found a hair in our paella and our salmon came out raw. Overpriced for what the food is.

Amazing food! The closest to having tapas in Spain! The food is very tasty and well priced. The seafood paella was delicious and well cooked. The pan con tomate were my favorite. The manager was very friendly and the staff very accommodating. Great overall experience!

Great little place. Menu feels authentic.food tasted less so.

We ordered the crispy baby octopus (delicious!) And the valenciana pallella. This had decent flavour (rosemary, saffron and tumeric), but had no crispy rice like I am used to (probably spoiled since eating pallella in Barcelona). Serving size was great (easily 3 full adults could eat it) and all seafood, chorizo and chicken inside were cooked wonderfully.

Staff were very friendly, helpful and fast! Would go again, but would probably order an entre instead of the pallella.

This restaurant has European charm. I went here for a birthday party and it was great. They have a beautiful bar with a huge wine selection. This was perfect to get things started. They offer tapas which are small plates of appetizers. These are the best to order for sharing. We had several tapas like calamari, baby octopus and shrimps. Then we ordered a medium seafood paella with lobster and it was big enough for at least four people. We finished off with a couple desserts that were excellent. Everything we tried was delicious and high quality. You really can taste all the flavors of Spain in these dishes. Everyone had a great time and I would certainly recommend this restaurant.

Great food, good atmosphere and very reasonable price! Me and my friends dined at the restaurant yesterday and we really enjoyed the food. Our waitress Melissa was very attentive.
We will definitely be back again!

One of the best restaurants in Halifax, specially if you want a celebrate a birthday.we ordered pollo con chorizo, seafood paellla, chicken and fries for our kid. “The paella for two”can eat 3-4 people for sure, is very good and brings a lot of seafood. The ice cream/berries desert is the best one. So don’t think about it and celebrate your birthday.

Many delicious tapas choices. The 6 of us all found plenty of dishes we loved. All of the cocktails we tried were delicious. Definitely give this place a try; we're going back!

Cute place next to the ferry terminal and boardwalk. The Paella is yummy and definitely enough for sharing with 2-3 people. Paul is really helpful and patient with us for all the requests! We will come back again.strongly recommend

Personally, I had an amazing time at the restaurant. Reasonably priced and amazing welcoming vibe! I would really recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants great Spanish food. I will definitely come back to experience great sangria and amazing tapas

"Authentic" is word threw around too much these days, but it is rarely true, not this time. Being someone who grew up eating these dishes I can assure you that everything there tasted Spanish (even the wine!). HIGHLY recommend it to anyone in Halifax.ps.: Paul is a great host!
