We love Tapas, and the portions were excellent and delicious. We have the challenge of finding delicious gluten free food due to an allergy and they deliver on options. The Iberia game, Octopus and burrata salad were very good. The star of the meal were the tuna tacos, perfection! The wine was excellent and the service was outstanding. Thank you!
