    Surprisingly good food! The tapas nature of the meal allowed a sampling of more flavors than a typical meal out. The pork cheek was excellent as were the duck tacos. The duck fettuccine was a tiny bland compared to the other dishes but was still quite good. The Brussels sprouts had a nice flavor but were undercooked and the spicy potatoes were fairly good. Bread pudding dessert had an excellent berry sauce. Service was great. Atmosphere was so-so, it’s a loft after all. Cute bar.

    We ate here before the Magic After Dark show (which was excellent!). The menu had many interesting tapas offerings and the portions were generous. However, the food itself was average.

    This place was un unexpected treat! We wanted somewhere semi reasonable to eat before our concert at Harrah and it was a good walking to location. They serve "tapas" style and each plate was very good with the recommendation of our waiter. We didn't realize that it also has a magic show for extra. Since we were already going to a concert we couldn't do but were referred to a table that for 15 minutes held a quickie magic show for free. We were pleasantly surprised at how good the free magic/card show was. We both said we will be back and attend the larger show. P.S. The service was good as well.
