VO Version Original by Paco Roncero

Food is overall good....but service is terrible. We waited 1:30 h to get part of our order...they came with a silly excuse after we asked for the status....Definetively....first and last time....no worth the price and also a weird environment...Stay away from this place....Terrible experience.....

In this past this was a great restaurant and I used to go there often. Then it collapsed, Last week I decided to return and check out but the result was disapointing, The place was empty, your order takes an eternity to be served and the food doesn't correspond to was it should for this type of restaurant.

We went for a family lunch hoping it would be a good choice. Sadly it was not. Way too expensive for a poorly cooked supposedly spanish food, and for a long wait. Will never go back.

Why it is a scam. because it is a scam:1. paco roncero jot lend his name for this. he is not there.1. paco roncero lends its name for this restaurant. the never is there.2. the menu is not what appear in the internet. they dishes are not even close to the gourmet dishes they show in the pictures. they will tell you that the menu changes periodically but what they dont tell you is that it is a real scam. The menu is not what they present in photos. They tell you the reason is because the menu changes regularly. but the dishes are not gourmet and not so of quality. is a real scam.3. this is not a michelin star restaurant. the food is mediocre at best and the prices are outrageooly expensive. they don't list some of the prices so be aware and ask before ordering. This isn't a michelin star restaurant. food is mediocre or worse and prices are exorbitant. some things do not show the price in the menu. ask prices before ordering.4. a scam of a restaurant. do not recommend it under any circumstances. A scam. I don't recommend it under any circumstances.

I am a fan of Jose Andres' creativity and Paco Rancero's delightful menu reminded me of the things I love about Jose's -- interesting flavors, both subtle and bold, combined in non-traditional ways. We started with a flight of appetizing tapas -- including an olive emulsion that burst in your mouth, a delightfully light avocado taquito, wonderful bite sized ceviche and a foie gras in white chocolate candy! So creative for those of us who wanted to appreciate diversity in bite sized servings. We were a large group and moved upstairs for dinner where the creativity continued. Main course options were more traditional, but each was prepared with just the right hint of an extra flavor. Dessert won us over with its tableside dry ice "performance" to create the perfect ice cream topper for our hazelnut mousse. If you go, I recommend you let the chef staff make recommendations and be prepared to try new flavors with an open mind and palate!
