This was such a find! Great prices, the best paella I've ever had. A nice spicy sangria and not too sweet.

Spanish cusine is of course... more

A couple of my Spaniard friends (ex-pats) advised me that they offer tapas just like at home. The place is cozy and family owned. There wasn't a dish that I wouldn't order again and appreciated the flavors was all about the ingredients. Saltiness didn't get in the way. Just wished had more friends with me so could order more from... more
