    My wife and I have been coming to this restaurant over the last few years. We have enjoyed ourselves, the food and the ambience. Tonight was different…We are not sure what the expectation is. Is the theme Tapas or regular dishes? My lamb shank was excellent, and the Eggplant appetizer however, my wife’s dish the drum was very, very small and not very tasty with bloodline. please offer bread to the table without the charge… we will come back, just trying to offer feedback

    Great service! Wish I could remember her name as she was a fantastic waitress. Overall the entire party loved their meals and the bread. I found the music was just slightly louder than I would like for business lunch conversation.
