I
had
given
this
restaurant
five
stars
in
my
previous
review
but,
regretfully,
I
must
add
a
caveat
emptor
based
on
our
last
experience
here:
the
service
at
this
restaurant
seems
to
be
more
of
a
hit-and-miss.
We
went
for
lunch,
a
couple
of
days
ago,
ordered
two
dishes
(the
paella
and
one
of
the
meat
and
cheese
dishes).
The
busboy
service
was
excellent,
as
per
usual,
he
even
remembered
us,
but
it
went
down
hill
from
there:
they
brought
my
paella
to
the
table
first
and
kept
my
husband
waiting
for
15
minutes
for
his
dish.
During
that
lapse,
I
asked
three
times
why
it
was
taking
so
long
to
bring
his
food,
no
one
could
explain.
We
had
a
few
forkfuls
of
the
paella,
which
by
then
was
already
lukewarm
(if
you
like
paella
and
have
had
good
ones,
do
not
order
it
at
Sanborns).
When
they
finally
brought
my
husband's
dish
we
were
very
upset
and
ready
to
leave
but
the
staff
kept
telling
us
not
to
leave,
that
they
would
reheat
the
paella
(Really?
Now
we
would
have
to
wait
for
that
too?
And
who
wants
reheated
paella?)
We
had
to
fight
with
the
staff
so
that
we
could
leave
the
restaurant.
We
wanted
to
pay
for
the
damned
paella
and
the
beer
my
husband
ordered.
The
server
told
us
not
to
worry
about
paying
for
anything.
So,
thank
you
for
the
free
beer
but,
most
likely,
we
won't
return.
Previous
review:
***This
review
is
for
the
restaurant
at
the
Sanborns
on
Calle
Zurich.***
We
had
lunch
at
this
location
twice.
Both
times
we
enjoyed
the
food
and
the
relaxed
atmosphere.
This
is
not
a
chic
place,
but
just
a
good
place
to
have
lunch.
Their
food
is
tasty
and
the
wait
staff
is
cordial
and
efficient.
They
bring
the
food
timely
and
at
the
right
temperature.
Their
very
popular
enchiladas
suizas
are
very
tasty
and
filling.
They
are
not
spicy,
though,
and
that's
a
good
thing.
We
love
spicy
food
but
sometimes
a
lovely
tasty
dish
is
all
one
craves.
