Our friends spit a seafood paella which looked wonderful and they claimed was delicious. My wife and I had tapas. We shared the calamari, eggplant satin, and cuban pork wrap. All especially the eggplant were excellent. The dipping sauce for the bread was also really good. Olive oil with cilantro, basil, mint, green onions, garlic We set outside in the shade, the service was on top of things without being obtrusive. A very light buzz around us so we had way conversation among the four of us

We ordered the sampler plate and was pleasantly that it provided a wide variety of items that came in sufficient quantity for two. It being a beautiful sunny day we sat outside and enjoyed the shady trees and attention of the wait staff. A value well worth the money

Initially, we were seated right in front of the restroom, so we asked to be moved. We were then placed in the middle, but the guest at the next table, who turned out to be the singer’s mother celebrating her birthday, claimed our table was for their friends. This made us uncomfortable the entire night as we kept receiving bad looks. When the cake with the candle finally arrived, the waiter placed a tiny cake on our table without any pleasant words and then lit the candle. At other restaurants, the staff has been much nicer and more enthusiastic when bringing out a birthday cake. However, he did receive a good tip as he gave great and honest recommendations. Sangrias tasted great , The tapas were tasty. The large paella was enough for two people, but it didn’t taste like the ones we had in Spain. The rice was overcooked and not as crunchy as authentic paella. Food, service, atmosphere: 4* Reduced by one star due to the attitude of the singer’s mother’s behaviour. She could have asked the waiters instead of directly talking to us !

Today we checked in, to find that there were only two dishes that could be prepared without garlic ‐ tuna tartare, and stuffed dates. Our waiter was helpful, but as my husband doesn't like raw fish, he chose stuffed dates. It really didn't work alone as a main course. To make matters worse, we got a rude email later taking us to task for being no‐shows. Don't worry Cascal, we won't be troubling you ever again, nor will our friends.

The drinks were great; I ordered some fruity ones, so they weren’t particularly strong but were delicious. We tried both the short ribs and fish tacos; they were okay, not bad for Happy Hour, but I’ve had better. The liver crostini was good. The paella (not on the Happy Hour menu) was absolutely the best. I’ll go back for more Happy Hour.

Excellent margaritas, sangria, and wines. Absolutely recommended if you’re looking for high quality food with a slightly higher price point. The ambience is wonderful, with salsa music playing in the background and plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. The restaurant is well kept, plenty of space, and the inside has wonderful decorations. The service here is excellent and fast. Especially if you come here on off hours. We barely waited at all to be served! The food came out minutes after we ordered it. One of best restaurants in Mountain View and possibly the entire South Bay Area.

The spices and seasoning as wonderful in all the dishes we had. One thing I would say is that the larger sized paella was surprisingly still small and rather difficult to share with 5 adults. We still left happy and would come for more!

Red sangria and Mojito to drink and chocolate souffle with coffee ice cream for dessert. Everything was fantastic. The atmosphere was great with live guitar and excellent service. Definitely worth it.

The Potato Gratin was creamy and the cheese on top was deliciously gooey and crisp. The Muscles in Saffron Cream Sauce had the perfect bite of rich cream, with the fresh muscle and just the right amount of acid from the tomato and onions. Every bite was delicious! As always the service was friendly and professional, and the outdoor patio was the perfect setting for our evening out.

The dishes were very flavorful and very nicely presented. The mushroom empanadas are definitely something to try. The dungeness crab and shrimp tostaditos were also very good; the veggies that came with it was fresh and crisp. We also tried the paella rustica—it was very rich. Good but I was a little overwhelmed by the variety of meats. The restaurant was very nicely decorated, not too dimly lit. Their sangria was okay—I noticed on the menu that they have a choice of red, white or sparkling but the server didnt ask us for preference.

Well, you'll find no danger (can be romance? in Cascal, but every Friday night they have a live band that defined. This would be an ideal place to bring a date, but it is not so posh and beautiful that you cannot come to jeans with a group of friends, order a pitcher from Sangria and sit under one of the many heat lamps that do the outdoor dining areas. I have some hits and misses with this restaurant regarding food, but the ambience is always great – lively, noisy, this place is a good way to not feel in Mountain View though you are really... just don't order the spain tapas cellar. It is beautiful and if you see a waiter who crosses with a plate, you will be tempted, but while there is an eye candy-looking dish the individual components of the plate are either too mad or strange sweet. You are better not to order what sounds good for you on the tapas menu or try one of the other samplers. Tapas restaurants are usually a little more expensive. Do not try to choose this place if you haven't eaten all day, they really try to focus more on quality than quantity.

I tend to order fried Calamari when I see it on a menu, and Cascals was excellent....perfect fried and a good size (especially for a tapas square). The rest of the food was good... although expensive, as most tapas are places. And I think I'm hungry.

The spicy salsa complements the frits and adds another layer of complexity and taste. I found her Sangria a little watered, but the food is totally ready for it! I think this place is much better than Zarzuella in SF, which has received a lot of awards for the food and its delicious Sangria!
