WhitneyOctober 3, 2010Come 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.
Boston MamaOctober 5, 2012The playlist is always sick here.. Never hear music we don't know/like.. Who makes the playlist here nightly?
Anish BMarch 24, 2013Never has a place relied so heavily on aioli and salt to make standard fare tapas seem worth a two-hour wait.
PatriciaOctober 15, 2014Ok, I know $6 for two little bacon wrapped dates sounds ridiculous, but THEY. ARE. INCREDIBLE.
Steve WhiteMarch 10, 2010If you are lucky enough to be eating here -get the anchovies, live a little. Impecable food, dizzying drinks - have fun!
Tiffany HuetMay 6, 2012Be prepared to wait! They weren't lying about the 1.5/2 hour wait. But I have a feeling it's worth it!
Greg Kuzia-CarmelJanuary 2, 2011Ask them who "Butters" is, and proceed to enjoy the best Tapas in America...
- P COctober 12, 2010churros are awesome. as are the pimientos. not as big of a fan of the short rib- too dry.
Eugene SAugust 20, 2014We weren't served because we didn't have our passports on us. Our South African drivers licenses were not recognized as bring ID. Walked one block down the road and were served.

"Love this hidden gem! Great place to go on a Sunday night w/friends(or special someone)to hear live music. Cheap drinks, friendly, crowded, but it's loud; not great if you want a conversation."
