    The restaurant is absolutely beautiful. It was a cooler day, so we sat inside, but that patio looks nice too. The food was incredible. We had a LOT of tapas, each one was uniquely delicious. Definitely a worthwhile experience. And to top it all off, our server was amazing. Such good care he put into our dining room experience, super friendly, and helpful with the menu. We will be back.
