Another welcome addition to the restaurant scene in the Burgh. Cool place. Nice to have some Spanish cuisine. There are mostly highlights but a few minor things that I am sure will evolve since only open a week or so.
We stopped in for a drink and some small plates. The bar is a stand up bar and limits orders from the menus of small plates, just what we wanted to try. Morcilla cures meats in house so we decided to give them a try. There is a small case of the many of the menu items on display at the end of bar. The bar staff was good and friendly. It was nice to be able to talk with the staff while they mixed sangria and some interesting drinks. We tasted a few of the wines available as a 2 oz. pour. Not real familiar with some of the Spanish wines, so asked the bar staff for some info on a couple of the wines. While they were helpful, I think a little more info/description would be helpful. One was compared to a french wine but did not get a real description. I would think this will change over time, but a little more of a description would be helpful. One of the wines tasted was probably open overnight and seemed to be a little oxidized but was drinkable. The others were quite good. We had a couple of the Montaditos (sandwiches), the Matrimony was terrific, the beef tartare was good but it probably had just a little to much aiolo, The Cecina of cured dried beef and the Morcilla sausage were both excellent.
The menu includes some Jamon and seafood that we did not get to try, but will definitely come back to sample. Will have to stop in with more time and have a dinner, too,
