Perfect for Tapas and drinks. Went to try their tapas on a Sunday. Was surprised with the oysters and wine deal. We were so full on oysters and Tapas that we didn’t even need a main meal! Best service by Stephanie. Will definitely go again | Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 | Reservation: Reservations recommended | Seating type: Indoor dining area, Outdoor patio / terrace, Booth seating

I love staying in this hotel whenever I’m in town. The beds are the most comfortable I’ve ever stayed in. They keep the pool heated year-round and it’s walking distance from the downtown scene. This is a great property extremely comfortable. Rooms: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Location: 5/5

We had been wanting to try Esteban for quite a while and we are glad we did. Their four course Paella special included a lot of delicious food

Had a hidden gem vibe. Great service by Jessica and great food with fresh ingredients. Also vegetarian friendly with many options. Lamb and brussel sprouts are a must have

We were seated on their large and open patio on a sunny day. Very cheerful! Our server was fun and helpful. We ordered several tapas dishes which were delicious plus red sangria. I think next time I’ll have a margarita which can be ordered by the pitcher! Great for a group. My favorite dish was the empanadas and my husband’s was the octopus! We’ll go back soon. I forgot to mention their Happy Hour offerings were nice and they also offer $1 oysters on Sundays, I believe. Not sure about other days. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Estéban Restaurant - Visited Esteban on Mother's Day

Visited Esteban on Mother's Day for Dinner. Looked like they had a special brunch for Mother's Day. It wasn't busy for dinner. Enjoyed everything. Would get a paella with seafood next time which would probably have more flavor. We really loved the Brussels and I ate all the crust from my son's pizza. The bread was so good. We found street parking easily on a Sunday night.

Estéban Restaurant - ... The breakfast menu ...

We stopped in just passing by to have a late breakfast and we were so pleased! The breakfast menu is moderately priced with a nice selection of options. I enjoyed the avocado toast, which was probably one of the best I've had. So flavorful and well spiced, with 2 perfectly poached eggs, and on Otto's sourdough. Amazing! My husband had the full breakfast with eggs, potatoes (perfectly seasoned) bacon and again Otto's toast. It was equally delicious! Staff is welcoming and friendly, and the outdoor dining patio provided a beautiful setting. Even the music in the background was perfect. Highly recommend!
