We sat at the bar and were warmly greeted. It is very cute and cozy inside. Not a ton of tables, and it is a small intimate space, so great for dates or small get togethers. Our bartender was fabulous and helpful. We tried a variety of ports and they were all great. I loved that I could try so many different kinds which I normally don't get the chance to do. We didn't have any food since we had other dinner plans this evening but the tapas looked great and we would certainly try them upon returning.

It was like watching surgeons work together.....bravo to them all for providing such wonderful service and making each dish a standout. Open air kitchen where the grilling is done counter side. Fresh fish galore (it's on ice within eye view) the fish is selected and grilled based on order. This tapas hot spot should be top on your list of places to eat. Sharing plates is all the lure of these dishes. I have never been a fan of peppers but these grilled padron peppers with oil and sea salt were superb. The ribeye cap was bought to use with a large serving spoon it was beyond tender (yes the spoon was adequate to cut this succulent meat). It took barely any effort to chew since it was so perfectly prepared. The grilled octopus with paprika was the phenomenal. We should have ordered a second serving, it was a real palette teaser. The prawns were a lot of work and extremely hot, they were bought straight out the skillet to table so pack on the patience removing the shell. The mini meatballs along with the grilled squid with ink sauce is a must try when selecting items from the menu. Don't leave without ordering the flan, it was probably the best I ever tasted.

This was probably my favorite restaurant while visiting. My absolute favorite tapa was the tuna tartar tostadas. We also got the lamb, albondigas, and sliders. We didn't leave a crumb! My sister and her husband also ordered the hummus tostadas, roasted cauliflower, and grilled carrots. She's not the biggest tapas fan so I was so glad she enjoyed the food as well. We got a pitcher of red sangria to add to the experience and ended dinner with the Pan de Elote, which was quite the crowd pleaser. The restaurant is definitely in the "it" part of the city, lots of foot traffic and so many things going on around the place. The setup is real cool too. We sat at the bar, which is right in front of the kitchen so you get to watch as the cooks prepare the dishes. The service was real fast too. It is a bit on the pricey side, but if you don't mind splurging a bit, it's definitely worth trying!

It's surprisingly large for a space that oozes intimacy and the seating alcoves maintain a sense of privacy for its patrons. There's a sound buzz of chatter throughout though the noise level never seems to rise high enough that one can't hear her companions. Our foursome were seated around a table and promptly provided water and delicately commissioned book-menus similar to botanical drawings. This place is class all the way. We went with the No. 2 gin martini (herb, grass, pine notes) and No. 4 Empire Old Fashioned w rum. We all were offered tastings of the rum prior to preparation, which in itself is described as a style rather than a recipe. The time undertaken for this approach is longer and thus a beer to keep the individual comfortable is provided. Unreal. We also ordered fresh bread and pickles for the table which were indeed fresh, punchy and the olive oil extra virgin. There were no missteps here and my rating is one given w gusto. This place is one to bring for special occasions, when one wants to feel special, and certainly to impress. Go quickly but select w care w whom you share this exceptional spot.

(It was kind of hard to find with maps being misleading). Was it awful and no one had the heart to review? Our fears were put to rest when we found the place, and got our meal!

Be mindful when you order - you won't likely need as much as the menu recommends (if you do, you can always order more) and they don't seem to be ready for taking items home (though they found a creative and effective solution for us)!

We stumbled across this place in our research and I particularly loved the idea of a unique take on traditional British dishes, so we decided to give it a shot. The place itself has a great decor and made a for a nice, romantic date night - nicely lit by candles adding a nice touch. We were waited on primarily by William, who turned out to be one of the owners, and he was very sweet and an absolute delight. The food - literally everything we had was incredible. The wild boar, game & apple croquettes were so perfectly cooked with the slightest bit of sweetness and came set atop a sauce that was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend loves scotch eggs, and was a little hesitant about a quail scotch egg as well as trying black pudding for the first time - and he wanted to order about 3 more. Following those, we also got the lamb, the crack & cheese, the truffle & parmesan fries, and the wagyu/bone marrow burger, all to share. The lamb was cooked perfectly and had so much flavor. The burger was the one of the juiciest and flavorful burgers that I'd ever have - definitely don't be put off by the blue bun! It just added to how unique it was. The crack and cheese was a bit on the soupier side, but it was delicious, and perfect for dipping french fries into after you've eaten the macaroni. I'm not sure why this place doesn't have more reviews - it's a very cool place with delicious food. I highly recommend this place - I would suggest going out of your way to check this place out. The owner also has a fantastic cocktail lounge that he recommended - Looking Glass Lounge - as it was right by our AirBnB, and that was a great experience as well (but that's for a different review).
