el gato azul

nice atmosphere on the patio.  my cinnamon pork was over cooked. service was mediocre.  owner is friendly, caring and personable.

a local gem. my husband & i were in town for the wkend and had the privilege of dining here on a saturday night. the lamb kabobs were incredible as was the mediterranean salad. great music, service and atmosphere . so glad we got the recommendation from a local. too bad we live in lakewood, oh or we would be back on a regular basis. wishing continued success.

i've had some really bad experiences here with slow service and freezing to death in the wintertime. skip anything that seems like mexican food. what you want here are the tapas. if the paella is available, it's also very good.

wontons con queso were ok. paella was sub par. service was slow and disorganized

arrogant, defensive, abusive management

before i go anywhere, i check whether there is anything i can eat given my considerable dietary limitations. when i called i was specific that i can only eat vegan with egg or fish. the young lady started listing names of dishes she thought would be ok for me. i asked her for details. the first ingredient she stated was 'shrimp'. oops... so i asked for a manager. he was very defensive about how wonderful the food was and how they had a wide variety available they could make from scratch and how his staff does not need to be better trained to listen and had no intent to harm anyone. sorry, intent is not relevant to causing an anaphylactic shock in someone due to negligence. i would not trust these people to prepare safe food.

the ambience was great, small bar tables & chairs made for tight seating & dining, the menu had many unique choices, the prices moderate, the portions small, the staff horrible!! this place is incredibly popular thus busy. took forever to be seated, took forever to bring us water & menus, took forever to come back and take order, took forever to get food, and server never came back. we had to request our bill as we were leaving and felt no obligation to tip the poor service. with the menu being so vast (tons of tapas!!!), it would have been especially helpful to have a more attentive staff to help customers make recommendations and boost revenue! retraining the staff in customer service, menu knowledge, and time management could go a long way here.

wish like anything i had taken pictures of the food, because it tasted even better than it looked!!! however, when it came i couldn't keep the crowd off the food!!! we ordered 7 tapas for the table and all shared. amazing! we had fried artichokes, jammin' chicken, sticky chicken (yum!), papas con queso, coconut fried shrimp, pecan/goat cheese on pita bread, & beef and garlic!!! lovely!! wait staff also wonderful!!!! this is a must try gem in prescott with great atmosphere over creek!!

we enjoyed delicious drinks and food. we had taps on the lovely back patio on a warm afternoon. strongly recommended and perfect for date night!

this place is a must go to when in prescott, az. the food was top notch and staff were awesome. we love tapas places and have been hit and miss in our travels but this is by far a hit. they have a large and varied selection of tapas along with a good variety of main courses. we stuck with the tapas menu as we like to try different things but it was hard not to order off the main course menu as there were some enticing choices. the wait staff was perfect. they didn't hover over us and only stopped by when it appeared we needed something. even though they were busy we didn't feel rushed and was allowed to eat at our own pace and enjoy each selection. the bonus was when when we got the bill. we weren't keeping up with everything we ordered but we had tried so many items i prepared myself for a fairly large bill. however this was not the case, with a main course salad, 6 tapas and a couple of micro brew beers it was less then $50. for the quality and quantity it was a great value. this will be one of our go to places anytime we are in prescott.

the place is compact with a larger outside area. i went at night and felt that the lighting wasn't suitable, but some people may enjoy a darker setting. the waitress acted in a manner that conveyed lack of courtesy and was in a hurry to take our order and go. in addition, no one came to my table to offer a drink refill or to ask how was everything. my wife had a legitimate complaint regarding her stake. it was very hard. i tried a piece and it was rough. they replaced it with chicken. it is also my opinion that the meals are over priced. overall, i believe that the current rate of 4.2 for this location is grossly inappropriate.

great service with shelli, a very nice afternoon on the patio for lunch, enjoyed the tapas to share. starts with the black bean cakes topped with a spicy aioli, carnitas, sticky chicken, and the chicken quesadilla.  the sticky chicken had a nice hoisin flavor, the carnitas tender, and the quesadilla was topped with a kick sauce and pickled onions. relaxing the patio just made it for a wonderful experience, with plenty of beverage choice. there is a lunch menu if you prefer. desert was a cranberry grenauche, rich and flavorful.

seems like a great place. i'm glad we arrived before we got hungry. the service gave me time for my appetite to catch up with my food delivery. if you have lots of time on your hands, this is a great choice.

great place. 1st date w my fiancé was here. great food, affordable prices. they have specials if you come early. i'd call them for more details. fun stuff!

wannabe hipster joint. food's ok, but over priced. weak rendition of tapas.
attracts the wannabe hipster crowd.

what's with the service?. the food was good. never got the sauce that was supposed to come with. food took a loooong time! server just said sorry. not sure if i'll be back or not.
