Amazing food, loved the fireplace. The bacon wrapped dates were out of this world! Loved the chicken tostones and chorizo in dough along w the risotto croquettes

'the fox' cocktail - tequila and passion fruit. Goes down super smooth...and ask them to make it spicy (pinch of chipotle - if you want a little kick)

First time visitors have to start with their signature dish: costillas de cerdo. Marinated for 24 hours. The empanadas and vigoron are great appetizers.

Small tapas restaurant. Nice staff. Sit in front of the fire place. GET: mini empanadas, chorzio in a blanket, croquettes, flank steak salad

Ask for Melissa! So many great plates but my favs are The flank steak small plate and the "low-fat" chorizo stuffed dates wrapped in bacon & short ribs. Oh... And of course the Rioja. Enjoy!!!!

Hospitality like this is almost unheard of. If you make friends with Melissa, the Chef/Owner, you might be able to order off the menu - a treat.

This place is a my go-to spot, especially in the winter when there is a blazing fire and the warmth provided by the the wine and empanadas and the clay pot makes the winter blue melt away

A new fave place of mine! The dishes are small but are delicious and taste really fresh. Try the mini empanadas and the crab cakes. Yum!

Fireplace. Imperial beer from Costa Rica. Tostones que buena. Chimichuri skewers. Romantic.

The flank steak salad and chorizo stuffed bacon wrapped dates are magical.

Cute place w/fireplace for 1st/2nd date only n not looking 4 quality tapas. Just a note to self:nxt time if I'm craving for good tapas,i'd better get real spanish tapas n not latin tapas! Dissapointed

Comfy and warm inside, and the sangria is sweet and tasty. The beef empanadas are the best!

Chorizo-filled and bacon-wrapped dates - to die for

Chorizo and dates wrapped in bacon. 'nuff said.

Easier to get a table after 10pm

Decent food, terrible terrible service- not worth the trade off. Been there numerous times and each time the waiter acts like we're burdening them and even ignores the table. THE WORST-esp for groups!

The red sangria is amazing
Sanida CarrollJanuary 14, 2012
POOR SERVICE. We ordered THREE times and they kept missing our order. After half an hour of waiting, food never arrived. Instead, the waiter came to ask us to move to a new table :-(

For tapas, go elsewhere. We ordered 3 plates with chorizo, and all were burned. Service on a Friday night was poor -- our service seemed to be annoyed that we were ordering several rounds of food.

Cute place. Food is fine but not worth the prices.
MahaOctober 27, 2013
The food isn't bad - but the service is very sloppy.
Gavin BeckerJune 27, 2009
order the empanadas - small, but delicious
Running with ScissorsNovember 20, 2010
I would skip this place. The calamari and chorizo was bad and over cooked in burnt sauce. Empanadas were good but not great and not worth the trip back.
SteveJanuary 25, 2014
ridiculously overpriced

Overpriced, small portions and bad service
