“ From the coffee to the hot sauce, everything was delicious. The environment & set up of high tops is great. Server was awesome, pleasant, helpful, etc! ”
“ Had an incredible experience here! The food was seriously amazing — full of bold Latin flavors and perfectly spiced. I had the Terra y Mar and it was hands down one of the best dishes I’ve had in a while. The flavors were rich and balanced, and every bite was packed with personality. The drinks were just as impressive — creative, well-balanced, and super refreshing. You can tell a lot of thought went into the cocktail menu. Service was excellent from start to finish. Friendly, attentive, and helpful with suggestions. Overall, a great vibe and a place I’ll definitely be coming back to. Highly recommend! ”

“ I started my dining experience at Delicia with a red sangria and they did not skimp on the brandy and it was all uphill from there. The food at Delicia is bursting with flavor. The fresh ingredients in the guacamole were flavored with lime and kissed with pistachios and jalapenos on the top and served with warm chips. My goodness I thought there’s no way it’ll get better than that, but it did... My husband ordered the pulpo grilled braised octopus with toasted red potatoes salad, spanish salsa verse and fried lemon, that’s right you’re reading it right, fried lemon and garlic. For entrees I ordered the Elote pistachio crusted scallops with cauliflower puree(smooth and creamy) and a corn succotash. The flavors married really well and did a happy dance in my mouth with each bite. I gave the dish the clean plate award. It was absolutely delicious and bursting with flavor. My husband had the Cazuela De Mariscos mussels, calamari, shrimp, smoked bay scalloped and rice bathe in a white wine saffron sauce and grilled baguettes. He wolf the delectable seafood dish down, but we didn’t stop there. He ordered the Churros with a chocolate ganache sauce and I had the cut into a wedge bread pudding encircled with creamy dulce de leche cream anglaise and pepitas. Both desserts were delicious. ”
