Delicious! And great patio in the back!
This place was great. Arturo, the bartender, was adorable and kind and had wonderful suggestions. The location on Lark is awesome and if you're looking for authentic tapas, this is a perfect choice.
great tacos, authentic mexican style, thanks to my friend, grateful to find this fancy place
The tapas selection is varied and promising, and the mararitas were amazing. Tried the Paella, the Pimientos Reyenos De Queso Cabra, the Pulpo a la Gallega and one other dish. The paella was good, but had not developed the signature crust. The pimientos had great flavor, but were described as stuffed and were served layered (had to send them back because they had no cheese in the first serving). The octopus well was presented, but overcooked. Unfortunately, I compare it to a recent grilled octopus in NYC that simply flaked...
It was first Friday at the end of the run, and the owner was very gracious. I'll go back to try again. The menu is promising.
The food was decent. The drinks were just okay. I had the Paella and it's far from the authentic Spain Paella but it was edible. I also had margarita for a beverage it wasn't freshly made it used a lot of the margarita mix. Not a fan of the Resturant Week menu maybe their own menu is much better.
