First time to Ortanique, enjoyed the atmosphere, service and most importantly the food. Had a perfectly adequate glass of Tempranillo, but the food was delightful: pan seared corvina (yes, yes, I had red wine with white fish, but I'm of the "drink what you like" mindset and was in the mood for a Spanish red), served with perfectly cooked, julienned carrots and chayote, all atop a bed of sweetened, citrus-enhanced, plantain and Caribbean sweet potato mash. I opted to save room for dessert instead of eating appetizers (though my table ordered several, all of which looked delicious)- smart move as I had the coconut tres leches cake... so moist, with the perfect amount of shredded coconut, homemade chantilly, and just the right balance of sweet and creamy! I will be returning to Ortanique for sure!
