I will be posting waaay better pictures soon.
Every time I go here I leave drunk, full and happy.
First off it's tapas.
Most men don't fancy tapas.. too much sharing and not enough food.
I get it.
But this place is so good and there are so many excellent dishes that men fear not! You can order as if you are in a regular ol restaurant.
bummer for whoever your date is because sharing is best and there are so so so so many choices it would suck to be limited to only one or two things off the menu.
Ceviche- sea bream w yuzu and shizo leaves - uh yeah amazing, fresh, bright, delicate flavors,
Duck dumplings- pass, there are better choices
crab avocado salad- perfectly good but still other exciting things to order so unless your dying of a craving pass for the first visit.
Cornish hen- incredible
Beef short ribs- you'll want two orders
frogs legs- if you can get over ickie factor they are pretty good.. The flavor was amazing but it's because it has over three hundred thousand pounds of garlic. the meat is good... really tender but I feel as though frog legs are a passable option
venison wrapped in shisu leaves- thumbs up
the phesant is really great as well.
And the rice pudding! mmmmm
You can have a bad experience here depending on if you have to wait or if you have bad restaurant karma. I've gone a few times and have been lucky enough to have a great experience each time
