| - If you're looking for some of the most DELICIOUS tapas in town, THIS is the place to be.
I came here for the first time with a couple of my friends and we ordered a few plates to share. I've wanted to try this place for the LONGEST so I was really excited to finally get the chance.
Our server was really nice and attentive. She was able to accommodate our needs, answer our questions and give us some recommendations.
The Kale and Apple salad was SO crisp and delicious! The kale was tender and easy to chew, the candied nuts added a sweet crunch in addition to the apple, and the dressing cut through the bitterness of the greens so perfectly. I could eat a bowl of that salad every.freaking.day.
The calamari was very flavorful. The sauce that they toss the calamari in reminded us of buffalo sauce. Not sure if that was the goal but we definitely tore it up!!
The lamb kefta sliders were okay. I thought they were dry and needed a bit more seasoning. I think a yogurt sauce would pair better than the chopped onions and tomatoes.
The short rib flatbread was the FIRST plate that we finished! From the time it touched the table we wasted no time digging in. The ricotta was light, the meat was tender and the overall composition of flavors was harmonious. I don't think I've ever had a flatbread so delicious in my life.
The butter chicken was nice- very tender and juicy, and we liked how the "naan" was made like a baguette. If you're a fan of curry then this will be right up your alley.
The Pork Buns were good, but once you dip them in that schechuan sauce??? PERFECTION. The pork belly was tender, the bun was soft and it surprisingly didn't get soggy because we left them sitting there for a while before we started eating them.
Our least favorite was the Gambas al ajillo(rock shrimp). It looked beautiful, but it was lacking flavor. A little bit more salt would've been good and maybe even some more garlic. The oil had little-to-no flavor at all, but the shrimp was cooked nice and the bread was good.
ORDER THE KALBI BEEF.
This dish is so absolutely tender and harmonious you'll be fiending for the last bite! The kimchi was okay-it wasn't traditional kimchi so that threw us for a loop, but the parsnip purée was smooth and FULL of flavor. It got to the point where we were literally scraping the plate clean!
All in all, I will definitely be coming back with more friends to indulge in another deliciously satisfying tapas feast.
