overpriced tapas menu

Rated this place:

The food is overpriced and the quality of the food does not justify the price at all. Out of the 6 dishes I only liked 2. Thankfully we had a voucher otherwise I just couldn't see this as being worth that much.Think I would've been mad to pay regular price for this meal. See Full Post

don't waste your time or money

Rated this place:

terrible service, mediocre food and expensive! Our waitress moved us to a different table then ignored us! Our meal (summerlicious set menu) arrived in haphazard order, some dishes were cold and just didn't taste good. The dessert, Poached pears in sweet Marsela Wine, tasted like it was from a can and the chocolate cake tasted like something from the grocery store freezer last year :(

Spanish Tapas

Rated this place:

Took out of town guests for authentic spanish tapas and everyone enjoyed the food and atmosphere. We went during Paella festival and we were disappointed to learn that eveyone had to order paella at the table and not just one person. We all ordered and shared a variety of tapas from the menu and were not disappointed. The food was elegantly prepared and mouth watering. The flamenco show started late but worth the wait. A good experience overall.

Disappointing

Rated this place:

We hadn't been there for about a year and thought a Valentines visit might be nice. Hopefully it was because they were overly busy but the service and food were something you would expect from a low end greasy truck centre. We were seated for a while and people on both sides of us were served with drinks by the time I caught the attention of a passing server and she mentioned that we were between sections and she would find out who was serving our table. Not the end of the world but not a great start. We ordered tapas and Paella and they were served in order which was nice and that wqs the highlight of the night. The Calamari tasted like overbreaded cardboard it was so badly prepared, The shrimp in chocolate seemed like a good idea, in retrospect I could only call it a learning experience. The Paella was the lowlight of the evening. The top was burnt and the bottom was soggy. We could only eat portions since the bottom was so glutinous and nasty. We can't comment on dessert, it just didn't seem like a good idea. Overall, this meal was something we did not enjoy. Phil

Best Spanish Food in the City….by far!

Rated this place:

Embrujo Flamenco embraces all the charm of Spanish dining and the joys of a truly unique tapas cuisine. We were gracefully served by a crew of pro's that embellishes the true authenticity of this food from Spain. These are just a few of my favorites Datiles Con Tocino (who knew dates could be so good!), the Puntillas en salso de mostaza and finish with the fresas en ania con helado de azafran .Thanks again for a wonderful evening!

Best Tapas in the City!

I've been in search of authentic Spanish and got introduced to this resto and must say I will go back! The tapas is true to its taste, as I recall in Spain. My favorite is the calamari and seafood paella- done right! The service was overly friendly, which isn't a bad thing ;) and the highlight is the entertainment. Now they are starting weekend brunches and can't wait to check it out! I've been reading alot of rave reviews in the press and I'm sure its nice to get noticed for good quality. Oh! Its the perfect first date place, very romantic ambiance.

Just Terrible

Rated this place:

Went to Embrujo for the first time in about a year and I must say that the quality of the Tapas has really gone down...It wasnt untill later that we learned that the original Chef was no longer there...and it showed... The puff pastry was very very greasy... the garlic shrimp over cooked and the lamb dish was so small that we ended up sending it back... The service was rushed and not very friendly the new owner "Hais" I think was her name was rude and her lack of profetionalism shows in the way that this lovely restaurant has gone down hill....

Flamenco dancing

Rated this place:

For me and my family, the highlight of our meal there was watching the live flamenco show...although the tapas dishes were also pretty good, they were a tad too pricey. They have performances every night (except Mondays) around 7ish and the place itself is really intimate, so you can get a great view of the fancy footwork and castenetas.
