Came here for dinner. It opens and 5 and no reservations so make sure to show up early to grab a table especially if you are with a big group!

To start drinks are typical wine, beer and cocktails. I tried the whiskey and tequila based cocktails and both were tasty!

Dishes we had so many! Gambas Al ajillo (Grilled shrimp with some special sauce), maiz asado (corn), foie grais, jamon Serrano (cured ham), escalivada catalana (eggplant), patatas bravas (fried potatoes with cheese and sauce), pulo (octopus), filet a la plancha (skirt steak), hamburgers, tuna, scallops, pork, fried chicken wings, churros dessert (hot, warm and you dip in chocolate) and 2 paellas....

As you can tell we tried a ton haha. Good news most were delicious! Favorites were the shrimp, corn, chicken wings and pork but like I said everything tasted good. I would even venture to say this is one of the best tapas places I've been to! So why a star off? Cost. A lot of dishes are tiny and cost $15. Really tapas should be more moderately priced. You can easily get an entree at a great restaurant and pay less.
