    This was our 5th visit to Costa Brava Bistro and it has been outstanding every time! The white bean and chorizo soup can’t be surpassed! We also enjoyed the frisée salad, the yellowfin tuna and the duck breast with potatoes. The service was exceptional and the ambiance was conducive to great conversation. We will definitely return!
