Constance ReardonOctober 21, 2011Great for a date night. Sangria is really good and all of the tapas are amazing!!
- Amanda NelsonNovember 28, 2011The whole shebang is definitely worth it! Be warned, though, they only take cash and American Express.
Anushka PaulSeptember 17, 2011The food and drinks are excellent...tho make sure you have enough cash or an american express card coz that's all they take!
Lauren DininnoFebruary 24, 2012Fried goat cheese will blow your mind. Brussel sprouts will change your life.
There's a dining area behind the kitchen upstairs. Try to sit there so you can walk through the kitchen.
Shiv HiraJuly 19, 2011Best tapas in the city - if seafood is your kryptonite they have an special menu for you!
Mariko NakataniSeptember 8, 2013Guys, the brussel sprouts aren't that great. Octopus salad was great but don't get it if you don't like cilantro.
Steven GantmanAugust 23, 2010Small plates but delicious, make sure you make a reservation or you'll be sitting at a table where you have to walk through the kitchen
- Club MonacoMay 16, 2011Mediterranean-inspired tapas! Round up a group of friends for the entire menu option for $420 - "The Whole Shebang."
- Peter SigristOctober 23, 2012You can't pay by card (except Amex). Like this tip. Tell people because it's stupid!
Jamie FarnamJanuary 26, 2013Cash or Amex only. A little unusual, but the food is tasty, so it works.
Gary EggersAugust 10, 2010If you're with a group, order "The Whole She-Bang". If not, get a plate (or 4) of Fried Goat Cheese w/ Lavender Honey and you're all set.
Lizz SpanoFebruary 11, 2011Fantastic tapas spot, and the brussels sprouts will knock your socks off!
Anna FrenkelMay 22, 2010bacon wrapped dates, fried goat cheese, pulled pork empanadas, even the brussel sprouts are good!
- Anand DharanAugust 26, 2018Outstanding food, but WAY too loud. Some of the diners have no shame with their yelling and laughter
The torjia dessert is amazing. It's their version of bread pudding.
