While the food at Sol Y Sombra wasn't complicated, it was certainly yummy and the service was (surprisingly given the cool vibe and the beautiful people -- I mean the staff not just the customers) totally relaxed and friendly.
There we were schlepping in with our shorts and t-shirt...and without a reservation at that. No attitude from the hostess. Though the place was fully booked, we were happy with our bar seats...easy access to their yummy mojito and sangria..and the tapas started flowing.
On my to be repeated list were the baby back ribs (for the sweet/tart quince and sprinkle of pimenton), the asparagus with crab (loved loved the romesco sauce) and the trout with sprinkle of hazelnut and salsa verde
Everything else (calamari, pan fried potatoes, brussel sprouts, mussels in tomato broth) were all solid.
3 stars for food alone and extra star for friendly service
