    If you’re planning to come here for happy hour, I suggest you go to Jaleo. We came here first, had a few drinks and tapas, but were quickly disappointed. The hostess was quite rude (the woman with the glasses) and the happy hour dishes were subpar. The chorizo sausages, according to the people sitting close to us, tasted like they were from Wawas. Unfortunately, I don’t think they were wrong. Jaleo had great food and drinks and surprisingly was at similar, if not cheaper, price point given the size of the dishes. Our night would’ve been ruined if not for Jaleo. Just something to consider if you are looking for good Spanish food in DC.

    There is a seating and bar area in the front that is dark and lively and a restaurant area in the back which is quiet but nice. Next time, I would definitely prefer a table in the front. Food is good but not tremendous, I’d go back for a drink. The service was excellent
