    What a fun dining experience. We had just returned from vacationing in Spain and this restaurant delivered authentic Spanish cuisine with impeccable service. The big surprise was the amazing clientele, enormously talented, who shared their gifts as part of open mic night. Not only was the quartet performing first rate, they were funny, accommodating and talented. Definitely surpassed our expectations in this cool little part of the city. Our out of town guests loved the vibe, too. So grateful we found you!!!
