From the OpenTable editors: Elegant bites, like a black olive tart with grilled squid, are just the beginning of the Spanish delights at Xiquet. Valencian-born chef Danny Lledó serves up showstopping paellas and other seafood-forward fare in an intimate, MICHELIN-Starred tasting experience.

    What a great and amazing experience. The Chef's Tasting menu was something out of this world and some dishes were out of this world, like the Octopus with Uni and Caviar where the server pour a really tasteful sauce with more Uni and more Caviar. The wines were in perfect accordance with the food and the service was great but not intrusive. Just a perfect evening with a great friend in a wonderful place. We will be back!

    The music was fun, the room was nice and intimate. Excellent way to celebrate an anniversary. The paella and the octopus were show stoppers and I absolutely loved all the unique options in their wine pairing.

    I was excited to come here especially given I had just been to Spain, but was sadly disappointed. Service was attentive, although the sommelier seemed a little stuffy. Drinks by the glass were limited (only those offered for the wine pairing) and pricey for either a 2 or 5oz pour; mostly bottles (all high $$$). Surprisingly there were no cocktail offerings, which was also disappointing. Some dishes were delicious but some hit the mark. The first course/Act 1, which was a platter of small bites, was a bad start. The rose water apple had good texture but was overpowered by rose water…it felt like I was eating a grandmother’s old perfume bottle. I suppose if you like rose water you might like it but it was a terrible first bite (instructed to start with apple rose, followed by another; and the rest in the order of our choice…didn’t finish a single one). It definitely made us worried about the rest. Thankfully the octopus dish was much better-but I’m a sucker for Uni and who doesn’t like beurre blanc sauce?!? The star of the show was the paella…perfection! Could have eaten that all day! The pork and waygu beef dish was also well executed but not a wow. The dessert assortment was eh…the main one was some sort of chocolate donut-didn’t finish that one; however the little bites in the box-gelee, pistachio, and some other tiny bites were pretty good. Overall I was disappointed for a Michelin star…not worth the price-point, and sadly would not return.
