    Took mom for her birthday dinner and she loved everything. From salad course to entree to the noise level, she was impressed. Raved about the food. Bacon wrapped scallops were very good and the fish soup with shrimp and clams were my personal favorites. Mom had carrot cake for dessert and loved it too! Come here for an intimate setting. Good date spot after an event in downtown Newark.

    Fantastic Dining Experience The food quality was excellent! The tapas selection, including the steak tips, crab cakes, scallops, and clams, was superb—each dish was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. While parking was initially a challenge, the extremely considerate staff quickly provided clear directions, making it a non-issue. The sangria was so good, it was almost dangerous! Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for top-notch food and service.
