    This was a business team dinner. Everything went as it should. Food was prepared as anticipated and was delicious. We were served by Andrew who did a phenomenal job, he provided recommendations as requested and really demonstrated knowledge of the menu. It was a great time! We made an excellent choice in deciding to go to Founding Farmers on Mass Ave.

    If you love tapas you can’t go wrong at Jaleo! There’s a huge range of hot, cold, meat, cheese, seafood, veggies, etc. The traditional shrimp & garlic is loaded with sweet (!) garlic slices, the octopus was grilled and tender, the gazpacho is silky (with crunchy “bread fingers”), the peas were delicious. We shared about 10 plates, and our waitress, Sylvia, was attentive but not hovering. It’s our 3rd visit and we’ve enjoyed every meal we’ve had. Last year we had the chef’s tasting dinner and it’s a “must-do” - at least once!
