    It wasn't exactly bad but it was far from stellar. Our "steak" salad came with shredded beef (ropa vieja) which even a fast food joint in Texas will not do.

    Tapas y mas tapas!: Okay...the tapas menu wasn't extensive, but what was there was great! Plus, they were bigger than most tapas. The stuffed chilies on a wonderful bed of rice were out of this so-called world. The service was A+, the live jazz (a sax, guitar, y bass combo) was muy bueno and then some, and the atmosphere above the rest. It was also a great deal. Head on down to this place in downtown Long Beach.

    It was Great: I liked the sangria, the waiter was very friendly and patient with me. I liked the variety of food that they have. I will go back soon.
