Ole Eatery - Branson

What a great lunch today at Olè! The restaurant is very inviting, super clean with nice Spanish music in the background. I was met by David at the counter who also happens to be the owner and he was quite helpful on recommending things that I should try. I ended up with the Seafood Paella, chicharròn, croquette, and a very nice Octopus dish with papas. I haven?t had Paella inquite a while due to availability in my area but this brought back good memories and was very very nice. I really enjoyedeverything that I got and will be placing Olè on my list for stops in Branson. If you like Spanish food you need to stop.

This is an AWESOME place!. Food is the best Spanish Paella you can eat, the sangria is done the way is done in Spain, with real wine and fruits. On top of that the service is great! I strongly recommend that if you are nearby Branson, you go to Ole. Itypically don't do reviews I am too lazy) but for this restaurant is worth it.

So I went here because of other recommendations, and I have to say I wish I had a better experience. I wanted to fall in love with this restaurant, but there were some misses. The tapas- Ordered the chicharron, croquettes, and papas bravas. Thechicharron was good and carmelized well. Just think of it as braised pork belly. The papas bravas were ok. I wished the aioliwas more of a compliment than it was. The croquettas came out room temperature-ish. I was expecting a hotter tapas, but ifthat is how it's done, so be it. The paella- Ordered the seafood paella. So good points were that the paella was seasoned welland the seafood was there in some form. The opportunities- I wish there was a socarrat to this version, which I felt was neededfor the enhanced flavor. The sangria was delicious! I don't like mine overly sweet and this was a good balance.

Food was absolutely fantastic. The inside is pretty and clean. However, the person who took our order was very rude he walked away after we started to order. I ordered the paella marinera and it was packed with seafood and delicious rice.

Fantastic slice of Spain. Been to Spain a couple of times and even lived there for a bit. The paella here was wonderful and it was really neat that they had multiple regional varieties. They also have a small selection of tapas and desserts.
