extremely impressive performances by the flamenco dancers. brought back memories of when i lived in spain. the food was also delicious, with plenty of options so everyone in your party is happy. the waiter was great, the ambiance, darkly lit, was also great. i'm highly recommending this show to my friends and family. what a winner!

I'm sorry to say that this show is in dire need of re-vamping with flamingo dancers that have a presence on stage, and can successfully command attention and the passion of the flamenco dance. The show consisted of a 45 min. flamenco demonstration between three older and somewhat lack-luster performers. The only element of the show that I enjoyed what the singing of an older gentleman (early seventies?) who sang from a corner while the dancers took turns on the front and center. If only the food could have made up for it....but it didn't. The food was really terrible!! Overall, I felt "dupped" at the end of the dinner and show, which was definately NOT worth the $$. :-(

You'll know how clean and organized a restaurant is by how clean their bathroom is (in my case, men's). This place looks like a run-down "Pollo Loco's" bathroom: Unkempt and dilipidated. They (El Cid) can try to hide their dilipidated facility by a country side faux look. The dance nothing spectacular. I'm sorry but I thought that flaminco dance was supposed to exude passion with a borderline of danger. Props to the middle aged women to be in great shape but I could see this in my gym if this what I was paying for. It was like watching ballet performed by middle aged dancers. The food, well you can get it any where where Spanish cuisine is served. Actually do so, and skip this farce of a show. Service was acceptable, especially when the place is half empty. Now, the juicy part: Their menu said that 18% gratuity will be charged on party of 5 or more. Guess what? I got charged that rediculous amount for two people. Another thing, don't dare take anyone on a date unless is your 70 year old mother (I did). Oh, I forgot, if you don't order anything, you'll still pay the full price of the ticket from which they'll based your 18% forced tip.
