We started with a bunch of tapas, and they were all pretty good. I especially liked the lamb meatballs. Then, we had a steak anda seafood paella to share, followed by churros. Food was okay, some of the steak was real good. Service was a bit slow, butfriendly. Came to around 120 per head including tips and taxes. Had a bottle of red wine for the table as well.
