“ Zineb was a wonderful waitress and agreed to served us, as we spoke little Spanish. She was super patient with us and also was very great at communicating! The food was amazing, especially the boneless ribs. We even ordered seconds! Thank you Zineb for the wonderful service, if we ever return to Spain, we will request you! ”

“ A great restaurant and wonderful atmosphere; always my first choice to eat here! ”
“ Had a great evening dinning in! Portions were a bit smaller than expected but cost was ok. Food was good, and because price is not too expensive it's a great option overall. The service of Ironelis was absolutely wonderful! She recommended the chocolate cheesecake and that one was by far the best dessert. ”
“ Great food, a nice variety of fish, beef, veal, pork, chicken, and seafood. We ate an early lunch and our waitress seemed very put out. She could have been friendlier and more helpful. ”
“ Lateral was suggested to us by Canopy Hilton Hotel, which is just around the corner as a good traditional Spanish restaurant that is good and not too expensive. We really enjoyed the food, artichokes being our favourite (me and my 10 year old daughter) and the drinks were great. Best of all was the service, most waiters were Spanish speaking unlike me but one waitress Andrea was super helpful with her great English and sunny personality. She made some great food suggestions and was very swift and helpful. We had a great time and came back the next night for more! Highly recommend this restaurant! ”
