| - I came here yesterday in gorgeous sunny weather, so my friend and I were seated on the patio area.
We ordered cocktails, the Sopa Tarasca, the Ceviche, and the Chicken Tinga Tostada (all to share).
On the flavour: the Sopa was a great tomato-bean puree that really brought out the flavours when warm, and although seemingly simple, had a great consistency and taste. The Tostada was still crispy when I was at the end of slowly working my way through. The chicken was brilliantly flavoured and packs quite the kick. By far, I think the ceviche was the most "average" - nothing stood out to me about the flavour - it was just incredibly sour from the lime/lemon juices, but no "interesting" herbs, spices, or otherwise to elevate to the next level.
Service: Friendly and mostly decent, but getting the bill took awhile, water refill was inconsistent.
Ambiance: Cute interior decor, and great area for sitting outdoors in warm weather.
Price: I tend to agree with what a number of yelp reviewers have brought up - for the price you're paying for these tiny tapas dishes, the value is just not quite there for me. My friend and I were "OK" after the meal, but even then, it was just not a lot of food, and I didn't feel like the fish in the ceviche, for example, was particularly high quality to warrant such a large premium.
I would have to think twice about going back, but the soup and chicken Tostada were my favourite.
