Sara was a great server and the food was good as usual. Took a star off as the bolognese didn’t taste or have the flavor we are used too.

We've gone to Andaluca many times over the year but time slipped by and it might have been 6 years since we've eaten there. It didn't let us down. The atmosphere feels like a small NYC bar/restaurant. It's dark and sophisticated but comfortable. The food was very good. All five of us liked the paella, lamb chops, pork chops, risotto and beet salad. Prices aren't cheap but they are on a par or even slightly below comparable restaurants. Last but not least, the service was perfect.
