Simona and Mercedes took great care of us. I recommend the four course tasting menu with wine pairing. Every dish was unique, flavorful, healthy, decadent, and an experience all in itself. The chef knows what they are doing. This is a foodie paradise. We were counting, or trying to, and I think we tried about 12 new dishes that we had never had with this pairing. To top it off, we sat outside and the setting is absolutely beautiful and relaxing. The chairs are very wide and comfortable, and the foliage makes you feel like you’re in another country. thank you for the handwritten card for my mother’s birthday. I forgot to grab it so I will come back for it tonight. Well. We might as well have dinner too!

It may just be ignorance on my part and if so i apologize. I assumed when you order tapas they typically bring them out one or two plates at a time. We ordered six plates and they all arrived at the same time. This resulted in cold food for a third of our order. There may have been some confusion when i told our server to bring the order out in any order the kitchen seemed fit. Food and service was excellent otherwise.
