Corn, dates, bone marrow and churros must.

Come for brunch. It's much easier to get a table for brunch than dinner and still very good.

House cured meats are amazing. Try their house ham (when available) - a formidable competitor to true Iberico.

Never has a place relied so heavily on aioli and salt to make standard fare tapas seem worth a two-hour wait.

The octopus. And the tequila.

Ok, I know $6 for two little bacon wrapped dates sounds ridiculous, but THEY. ARE. INCREDIBLE.

Be prepared to wait! They weren't lying about the 1.5/2 hour wait. But I have a feeling it's worth it!
