I was very impressed with the setting. It was relaxed and comfortable, and most of the staff shared a similar laid back yet professional attitude.When we arrived for dinner the restaurant was full, and despite having made a reservation we had to wait at the bar.

When we arrived for dinner the restaurant was full, and despite having made a reservation we had to wait at the bar. Fortunately though, the bartender made for some intriguing conversation and was very polite about the situation, and we were soon seated at a corner table. Every table was sat by people who ordered the Groupon menu, which from what we gathered is a pretty generous deal for people interested in trying out many dishes without turning their wallets inside out. However, it seemed like the restaurant chewed more than they could swallow with the Groupon reservations, as, not only we had to wait after reserving a table, but the waiters were running all over the place, and the kitchen was in mayhem (there are windows to the kitchen and even without hearing the conversation we could tell they're having a hard time), causing our food to arrive pretty slowly.
Despite all of that, the food was of very high quality. We could tell the ingridients were fresh, and the chef made bold, creative yet comfortable decisions with the seasoning. We thoroughly enjoyed every dish that was served to us. My reccomendation would be to order a bunch of tapas to the table, and then fill up on a paella (the Mar y Montana is delicious!), and do not skip on the desert.
Now when it comes to drinks, you must try the red Sangria in Numero 15. you could spend 200$ on a 1 liter pitcher of sangria, or 140$ on two glasses containing essentially the same amount. I also went with the bartender's reccomendation and ordered a Mojito, and that was a fantastic decision. The Numero Mojito is made of all natural ingridients (no factory-made mix), topped with a layer of lime foam made in the place that really shoots up mix of sweet and sour that you want in a Mojito, bridged over by a generous amount of fresh mint.
The music seemed a bit indecisive, alternating between modern lounge background music, and popular old rock songs. We both enjoyed the latter more, although the modern background music fit the atmophere you would expect in such an establishment.
Although the restaurant has some room for improvement, the food and the drinks, and especially the staff's attitudes are all great reasons to come back and try more of Numero 15's food.
Also, shout out to the hot ex-military bartender, who makes for enough of a reason to come back on his own.
