Review of Besame Steamboat

I had booked this dinner reservation a month out, when all the reviews were good. Then, the morning of, we were scrolling through looking for lunch when we saw the newest, terribly unsafe review! We decided to risk it by informing the restaurant about it and exactly why I was nervous. Our server showed great concern (because it hadn’t been accidental, environmental contamination, but the diner being given the wrong food!) and was extremely conscientious, double-checking with us and the kitchen several times. I safely ate the apple manchego salad (delicious!) and a scallop and a scoop of mango sorbet. My non-GF husband and friend really liked their paella and several tapas.
