    Amazing food. We had a beet salad cannot remember the name of it but I was amazed. For the main meal we had to go with the paella which was out of this world good. It serves 2-3 people. Will go again

    The whimsy of apple foam and the delicacy of that chiseled eggshell were outliers. Most of our dishes were middle-of-the-road Spanish fare, though usually with just enough of an accent to seem fresh. Read more

    Great recommendations from the server, nice wine and beer for happy hour. Only problem...the chef was getting a back massage from a waitress while we were sitting at the bar. Weird.

    Try the Patatas bravas. Fried Yukon gold chunks, served with a just-a-tiny-bit-spicy tomato sauce and squiggles of aioli, are the perfect item to snack on while drinking, Spanish-style. Read more

    House wines for $4 y tortilla española $5. Or splurge on Sidra del país vasco (cider from basque country) $13 y Salpicón di gambas $7.

    Ask to try the fermented morcilla. And then ask who cures the meats. Absolutely adorable.

    Food was great but prices are all over the place, sandwiches are amazing and huge at $6 , stuffed dates were good but $6 only buys you 4 dates?
