We went for a birthday celebration and we’re pleasantly surprised with the restaurant week menu. It was fantastic and made our evening as we shared lots of delicious tapas. The music and buzzy atmosphere made it a great date night.

Wait staff was great. The food was good. It took some time to find food not beef, pork, or chicken. The food came out backwards. Shrimp, salad, mushrooms, salads, ham and manchego, etc. Thankfully the drinks came first.

It was quite cold and unfortunately it being one of the coldest days out it made for an unpleasant atmosphere to enjoy our food.
