in the last week10 stars if I could! Really good spot. The calamari was honestly some of the best I've had, and I've tried it at a lot of places. Got the imperial rice and paella too, both solid. Don't skip the shrimp plantain cups. And the toast, sounds random but it just melts in your mouth. They've got drinks too so you're pretty much covered for whatever you're in the mood for.
