Wonderful Spanish restaurant in the heart of the city. It is a tapas bar and has excellent paella. Happy hour is 4-6 each day with $1-$2 off drink and a discount on paella. TIP - order paella when you first arrive, takes 45 minutes to cook, but well worth it! We like to request the seafood paella with chorizo added (not as on menu). Live music is on Thursdays. Sunday Brunch 11-3 with full menu after 3. Off street parking lot
