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.
