    Went in summer 2026 when very hot out. Restaurant was comfortable. Staff was incredibly friendly and top notch service. Appropriate speed of serving and clearing. Two of us and we decided to do all small plates (created our own tapas dinner) so ordered 7 items. All were incredible. Lots of flavors, perfectly cooked and served.

    Excellent food and service. Only complaint was the music was loud and out a place for a restaurant with the quality of food and service. A more relaxed and subdued and quieter playlist would have added to the experience.
