La Crema is at the top of our list of restaurants on 30a and never disappoints. The food, atmosphere and server are always outstanding.

We had a group of 10 on a Saturday night. Service was fabulous and food was great.Kid-friendliness: Our server was great with the kids. There was a kid menu but tapas style dishes allowed kids to sample. Chocolate fondue and chocolate chip cookies were each a ? kid rating
I was so excited to come down to try their paella.. I've tried paella in various restaurants around Florida and back home in Chicago. I was hoping it would hit the spot after an hour wait list. Once seated, it took about 15 mins to be waited on, and that's because I flagged someone down. Ordered 2 paellas and hummus dip. Paellas arrived before hummus. I had to remind them. About hummus. Asked for extra lemon wedges, the waitress brought a couple of lime bits from the bar that wasn't suited for my dinner. As for the paella, we had the seafood paella, which specifically had 2 of each seafood. That's it. We basically ate rice, which was good. I wish it had more seafood. It's called seafood paella. The molten lava cake a la mode was fabulous. Overall, the experience wasn't what I expected. Reviews were to hyped up, set the expectation high, that I actually waited for 1 hr. Hummus was good with 8 pita chips, not enough to finish hummus. 1 martini, which was delicious. Overall, with tip, $140. Was it worth it... I went out of my to come here, but my husband and I weren't extremely pleased. It was ok. I gave it 3 stars because I really liked the cocktail and dessert. I probably will not be returning. The service could have been better too.

La Crema = Good and Warm fuzzy Feelings. The food was very good and is definitely one of the best places in the Area. The food was warm and there were many selections. We got everything we needed at the right time. Our waiter was outstanding after working for an Entire day. The Ambiance was nice. Great feel and it made me want to eat lots. I recommend the Fondue.

La Crema Tapas is a small location but big in flavor. Depending on the time of your arrival you may have to wait a while. Luckily we didn't have to. We ordered the steak empanadas. They were fluffy and full of shredded beef. Afterwards the ordered the seafood paella. Absolutely delicious. The paella portion is enough to share among two people even though the try to sell it as only for one person. We got a grilled cheese sandwich for our son which was nice as well. The table we were placed at was in the corner next to the kitchen so we had employees coming in and out non stop. Also the music didn't match the restaurant vibe and was super loud. For a "Spanish restaurant" located in Rosemary Beach, it was good. Check them out.
Food was absolutely amazing, but service was NOT! My friends and I came here for dinner and were unknowingly charged a $30 gratuity fee. We read on the menu that the gratuity fee was only for parties greater than 6 and unaccompanied minors. We are all adults and there were 5 of us so we were not expecting a fee. After receiving our bill, it was more expensive than expected. We asked our waiter after putting down a 20% tip and he hesitated to say that it was a gratuity fee for being “unaccompanied spring breakers” even though we were of age. We almost tipped him $60 because of this and it was very deceiving. We were not toldthat we had the gratuity fee when given the check and the fee criteria on the menu did not apply to us. It just felt very deceptive and wrong to us and we will not be returning.

The best restaurant I have ever been to. The steak empanadas are flaky and hearty, the ceviche fresh and delightful, all dishes delicious and scrumptious. Their fruit tart can only be described as transcendent. The atmosphere is laid back and sophisticated, and the service prompt and professional. I was almost tempted to leave a bad review so as to keep this place to myself, but it deserves to be praised beyond what mere words can convey.

I had seafood paella, which came out unsalted, I had to ask the server for some salt. I added salt, taste better but I don’t think I would order it again. Was an average paella.

We loved the chocolate fondue - which they can make GF by putting the pound cake on the side or ask to leave it out altogether. We tried all three paellas, seafood, country and veggie paella and all were pretty good. Can do pork free if requested leaving out ham or sausage. Our servers were GREAT.

If you could give a zero star, I would! The manager, Andrew Preble, came over to our table, told my friend she was a saying the "F" word and was so rude he made her cry, she got up & left, balling her eyes out. The wait staff was so kind, came out & apologized for his rudeness and hugged her. Absolute worst management I have ever experienced!! It's pretty bad when the wait staff agrees with you! She was talking about her mom who is dying from dementia and already upset, she was not swearing and he added to her sorrow! We were sitting out on the street with lots of people, they moved us to the patio where there was one 14 year old boy. Disgraceful is the best word I could use for the management at this establishment! The owners should be aware of the rudeness they hire. I Am disgusted!! It is also spring break, there were a ton of drunk college students around using bad language and he singled out an older mom going through the worst time of her life! So gross!!

La Crema is a must do when on 30A! We go at least once and usually a few times on vacation. We love sitting outside, enjoying the night and watching the crowd walk by. The service is top notch, and the food is delicious. Always have to end with chocolate fondue!
