    The menu is, as always, the star here. It's limited but each item is near perfect in execution. I don't love the ambience, it's hard surfaces all around and so quite loud, over which they make the inexplicable decision to play some kind of lo fi techno, which isn't to my taste and seems unnecessary in a foodie establishment where people might wish to talk about their experience. The service envinces effort but I found attention lacking; in our recent visit and order was missed and coffee came to the table with an empty cream pot. This is probably nit picky, but for an establishment that might have Michelin Bib Gourmand aspirations, it feels a little sloppy.

    The Paella was excellent. The mojitos delicious and the fried plantains wonderful. The service was 9/10 (brought the food a little too quick). And the space has a great atmosphere. Highly recommended!
