What to Order
Chorizo Mac (Mac and Cheese)
This isn't your average mac and cheese; it's a rich, flavorful dish with a complex roux and perfectly spiced chorizo that will leave you wanting more.
"The mac and cheese arrived first and I have to say, the roux and the complexity of flavors easily beat any mac and cheese I've ever had. It was incredibly flavorful and well spiced. It was just crisp enough on the surface and I would easily eat this every week for the rest of my life. The meat in the mac and cheese was excellent."
Josh Sigurdson
Patatas Bravas
A classic Spanish tapas dish featuring crispy potatoes, often served with a spicy tomato sauce and aioli.
"The food was so good and pretty authentic as it reminded me when I was in Spain and Portugal a few years back. The thing is, we were wanting and hoping for this place to be great and it surely was. I strongly recommend a bottle of red which was Chateau Haut Garriga Rouge Bordeaux that paired beautifully with the Tapas. We got house marinated olives, patatas bravas, chorizo con patatas, mango meat ball and the ‘pick any 3’ charcuterie board which was beautifully prepared and served."

House Marinated Olives
A simple yet satisfying starter, these olives are marinated in-house, offering a burst of savory flavor.
"The olives were delicious. Someone in our group recommended we stop by here after seeing a movie across the street and it really was a good choice. I’ll definitely be back to try more tapas."
Justin Baraniuk
Mango Meatballs
A unique twist on meatballs, these offer a delightful blend of savory meat with a hint of sweet mango.
"The dogs had the mango meatballs, and we enjoyed our cocktails while nibbling on our marinated olives, escargot, Spanish roasted potato salad, curry mussels, and corn salad. Rounded out our tapas parade with a little crème brûlée. Chef’s kiss!!"
Cherie Martin
Corn Salad
A refreshing and flavorful tapas option, this corn salad is a standout for its unique taste.
"Really enjoyed the corn salad tapas. The rest were good. Would go back to try more."
Gopika Manniath
Charcuterie Board
A well-prepared selection of meats and cheeses, generously portioned with enough bread to accompany it.
"The cocktails were amazing, and the cheese/meat board was very good for the price, and geez…it actually comes with enough bread! Iykyk. Great music too, Great vibes. I like it! 👍🏼"
