Everything was wonderful! Food and drinks were very unique. Beautiful place and loved the fact that music was not loud as it seems to be the case in most places these days. One tiny issue I had was how long cocktails took to get ready which discouraged us to order a second drink.

Amazing food. It’s tapas so best if it’s 4 so you can order several dishes to share. The Portuguese based items ordered were all fabulous. Service is good but could be more personable. Cocktails are pricy but interesting. You need to search the wine list for value but it’s in there. Would go again.
