What a great treat. The location, directly across the street from the Ryman Auditorium can't be beat for a pre-show meal. We sat at the kitchen bar for the full effect and were witness to a great show. I had ONE goal for the night; proper Jamon Iberico. . . it met my full expectations. Every thing else was gravy. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and willing to talk us through the menus (food and drink). All was fantastic and truly did make us fondly remember tapas restaurants that we have visited in Barcelona. I would highly recommend reservations because this place if going to blow up with business. Don't miss it.
