Attentive and kind staff, food was good - could have been great if less sauce on the lamb shank (or just a less intense sauce) and if the vegetables that came with both the lamb and and salmon were cooked a big longer. Potatoes were pretty hard. With both entrees, meat was cooked really well. Brussels Sprout appetizer was also good but maybe lose the corn nuts - sort of an agressive flavor.

Cocktails were lovely. Our choices of cured meat and cheese was beautifully presented on a serving board with a variety of peppers; quince and pear jam; mustard and toasted slices of bread. Fantastic! Main course of braised lamb shank had an amazing mustard sauce with a hint of sweetness and was served with a perfectly roasted vegetable medley.

This was our 4th dinner event at Alqueria and they are always exceptional and get even better every time. It is such an amazing deal to have four courses with wine pairing for each course. They make it exciting to try new food, new combination of flavors and overall experience. The service from the moment you walk in the door is always so welcoming. These are events we definitely look forward to throughout the year.

We went to dinner for their Restaurant Week menu, and we have found a hidden gem! The food was amazing! All the compliments to the chef! Our service from the moment we walked in the door was excellent. The atmosphere is simple and cosy. Everyone should put this restaurant on their “to dine” list!
