Decided to try this much hyped place.
Horse tartar - tasteless and bland. Definitely can use more herbs, seasoning and thoughts to dress it.
Tripe stew - tripe was tender, but the stew can benefit with more cooking time as it was quite thin and rather tasteless.
Fried chicken - fried chicken is fried chicken. If it's freshly fried, it's always good. As my companion said, fresh Popeyes chicken is just as good. Eggplant was a nice side dish but the greens were too sweet. Perhaps they were trying to do a sweet and savory contrast, but not quite hit the note.
Spanish blood sausage - almost a shame to be called spanish blood sausage because the worst blood sausage in Spain is better than this tube-liked substance. The fried thyme and onions were nice though.
Glad we started with 4 dishes and didn't try more as it would be waste of more money. Yes, we didn't try their famous octopus dish, but didn't seem all that good on the next table. Besides, we probably would have been disappointed if we did. Service and vibe were decent.
