First time here and definitely not my last. Sat at the bar with the gf for her bday. Great service, cool atmosphere with strong European vibes. Tasted our way through the menu and everything was delicious. Menu seems to change seasonally so there is always a reason to go back. Great work.

I am so happy I found this restaurant. The food, wine, service and atmosphere are OUTSTANDING! Especially the pea salad. It is an hour drive from where I live or I would eat there at least once a week.

May 2025: I just loved this precious surprise tucked under the hundred-yr-old ficus trees that line Verdugo Road. Windows boarded by day like the streets of Madrid during siesta, I had no idea what a beautiful restaurant & wine bar hid behind these doors. A total treat. Impeccable service, quiet indoors, swanky garden patio in back. Will try that next time. Wonderful night out, beautiful food and drink but most neat was being seated indoors “under a tree”. Thank you Wife and thank you Somm. jennifer, new to the hood ~
