| - Before you go, know that "tapas" are small plates that cost between $8-20 each. With two people, you can easily spend $60 and still not be full. Also, don't expect to leave with a doggy bag...
Now that you have set the expectations above, you can appreciate this restaurant. The private parking lot was small and it was full but we managed to find one spot. I don't even know where others would park if there had been more people. When we walked in, the place has character with lots of class, intimate and fun. There was a big group of people celebrating a birthday party so it was quite loud.
We were seated in the corner for two and we first order red sangria. They were sweet and strong - just how I like them! Our server was the only server in the restaurant but she worked the room well. Not once did we feel ignored.
I asked her what her recommendations were and she said the Osso Buco and Paella. We order them with the Brussels Sprout salad. The Osso Buco was tender and savory and the Paella was rich with so much flavor! We didn't leave anything on the plate. The Brussels sprouts salad was ok - not the best dish we had, but I guess you can't go wrong with eating vegetables. In my opinion, I would skip for $9. After three dishes, we weren't full (not a surprise) so we order the Patatas Fritas with meat which is exactly what we needed to get full.
We asked for our check and the bill came to a little less than $70 plus tip. It's not cheap, but I expected it to be that price. Overall, I think this restaurant is a great addition to this area and I'll be back!
