    LA Paella is a true treasure in the heart of Los Angeles, serving up some of the finest Spanish cuisine around. The paella is outstanding, bursting with flavor, and the sangria is a must-try—easily one of the best in town. The service is excellent, with waiters who are well-versed in the menu and always happy to help. A highly recommended spot for an authentic taste of Spain!

    We made reservations for Saturday night, and since we were a group of people, we got seated at a big table upstairs. We tried so many different dishes: champinones con chorizo, croquetas de pollo, gambas al ajillo, calamares romano, serrano, pescado a la sal, paella marinera, paella de montana con chorizo, all so very fresh and flavorful! Oh, and the best sangria I’ve ever had! The restaurant was packed, but everyone was so cheerful and the vibe was very European.Highly recommend, this is hands down very authentic Spanish! The owner spent years in the restaurant business in Spain, and we are so fortunate to now enjoy the best paella right here in Los Angeles!

    An exhilararing experience. The first time in this restaurant and certainly not last. The best calamary I ever had, the shrimps in a garlic sauce with unique delicious slices were to die for, the transparently thin Spanish hamon were melting in your mouth, and the “piece of resistance”, la paella, superbly made. All home-made (in-house) and with fresh ingredients. The service- impecable, the set up (white table cloth and coordinated fabric napkins) elegant yet in a family-like, intimate ambiance. Thank you Damaris and team! We will be back soon!

    I always wanna try paella and checked out this place on google. The restaurant is at reasonable distance from west LA and reasonably priced compared with other paella restaurants in west LA.The food is great. We ordered mushroom and olives for tapas, and shrimp paella.The first serving of bread is free and comes with amazing garlic butter and diced olive spread.The staff is very friendly and comes to check if we have water frequently.The staff recommended classic paella that comes with shellfish. We def will come next time to try it.The restaurant is definitely hot in the neigh and many people are already here on Saturday night before pm. Reservations by phones are recommended by the restaurant.
