"What a great place. We had a gift certificate for the flaminco dancing show but went on a night when there was no show. Our server was stellar. She was training a new emplyee, so she was attentive to our table and great with her trainee. Her suggestions were perfect. the Barbacoa margharita was fantastic."

"My boyfriend and I went for dinner and drinks on a Friday night. The ambiance was great; the service was excellent, but the food oh my it was not good at all. Our food was awful, but the drinks were good. We didn't finish our food of course. So we went to the bar for some drinks and I have to say that I had the best margarita ever. So, I would gladly recommend this place for drinks and music, but NOT for dinner."

"There was no one to check the 4 of us in out on the patio. So the person I finally found inside went with me to the computer back out on the patio but I doubt that she knew that she needed to recognize that she needed to show my reservation was not a "no show" as I received a note earlier saying that we did not show up. We did, had a good meal and our server was excellent and ended the meal by bringing a good dessert with sparkler flaming!"

"I use to go to Cafe Sevilla and I usually like it a lot. I was late and I called the restaurant to let them know. Even though I reserved a table, when I arrived it took 20 minutes to get a table. It took so long before someone gave us the menu. It took long time to place the order, the waiter was always busy with someone else.
The food was always good, the ambiance and music really nice. So I will keep to go to this place crossing my fingers that it will be better service next time."

"Overall the ambiance is GREAT; very unique interior and nice lighting effects throughout. Love the concept of tapas; but felt it was a bit pricy for what you were getting for. But overall the food was tasty. On some nights they have live performances so you may have a difficult time carrying on a conversation depending upon where you are sitting. Drinks weren't as stiff as I thought they would be either. Would probably end up coming back here again."

"As a first time visitors to this restaurant we were very impressed by the atmosphere, food and service. We were there on a Saturday night and although in the main dining area, we could hear the flamenco music and dancers from the showroom area. Will definitely return and probably will book in the showroom."

"On first entering we were greeted right away by the hostess, who told us our table which we reserved for three, just an hour or so earlier was ready. That was great, i'm still used to waiting 5-10 minutes at places even though we have reservations. I was taking my ladies out on a date, My wife and daughter who's two. As we were being led through the restaurant i immediately noticed the ambiance was great for couples and more so adult friendly and less kid friendly with the dimmed lighting and candle lit tables but that was just fine with us. bacon wrapped dates stuffed with bleu cheese and the short rib over mash was awesome. all other tapas we tried were just okay, the worst being the meatballs, tasted like they came out of a freezer bag."

"Had been trying to get in here for awhile and finally made it... very well worth the wait. Yelp had a free app with a check in. Came with a few things that I would not have normally chosen, but again very tasty and would order again. Many items to choose from, portions are just the right size to allow for multiple picks, without feeling overstuffed."

"We really enjoyed this place. Went there before going to the Terrace Theater for a show. The happy hour menu offered inexpensive tapas that were absolutely delicious. We had a dessert with gelato, apples, strawberries and whipped cream that was to die for. The place has a great atmosphere and comfy booths. Loved it!"
