    The whipped was unbelievably good. The table feels small for tapas but the service made it work!

    Would not recommend. We arrived and the place was pretty empty but they set us at a tiny table. There was an empty regular table right next to us and I asked if we could sit there instead, but was told no. Interestingly enough, the entire time we were there the table remained empty. The food was ok, but overpriced for what we got. The table situation just really annoyed me…there were PLENTY of open regular sized tables with regular chairs but four of us were made to sit on a tiny table for two with low chairs. Will not be going back.
