Really good paella and nice service. The patatas bravas were good, but the chistorra could be better.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Incredible food and amazing service! La Paella is a hidden gem! The food was absolutely delicious—every tapa was full of flavor, and the paella was one of the best I’ve ever had. You can really taste the care and quality in every bite. A special shoutout to Mike, the owner, who made the experience even better. He was welcoming, attentive, and clearly passionate about what he does. His personal touch really sets this place apart. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic Spanish food and a great atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back!
