Reviews

Really fantastic tapas. Seafood is the specialty. Recommend the scallops and the seafood rice (a mini paella). Approach is classic Spanish--not over-spiced or heavily sauced, just excellent ingredients cooked simply and beautifully. The bustling space and quirky decor feels more like Barcelona or Seville than it…
