    Salt is a great place for great food and good talk. The shareable dishes are creative and well executed. Live the Jamon Iberia with black fig & goat cheese. The ribs, steak tartare and paella are favourites. With the noise level manageable it makes for a wonderful evening with friends. Highly recommend!

    As usual, the food and service are consistently excellent at Bar Isabel. It has been years since I have eaten here and I'm pleased that they are as good as I remember. The grilled octopus and Basque cake were standout dishes for me.

    From the minute we walked into Madrina to the digestivo at the end of our meal, we felt well taken care of and like we were on a vacation in Spain. Our server was very well versed in the minutae of the menu and pairings. Every suggestion was a winner. We will be making Madrina our go to for special occasions!
