   Great vibe and drinks! The food could be better, but they are meant for snacks.

   The whole setup needs revamping. I paid a $30 deposit to set a RSVP. I get there to find out most of the food that I wanted was gone. I requested to obtain my deposit back. It was declined. I had to order something to utilize my deposit. Thanks for the experience, but I definitely would not be returning.

   Came on a Friday around 8pm for girls night, we were a group of 6. Our initial seating, greeting, and ordering were fine. Our first hiccup was the food hitting the table before the drinks. The food seemed streamlined and hit our table quickly, our drinks noticeably lagged. 3 of us ordered the same cocktail, and 3 were different. We were chatting and catching up, would’ve been nice for the food to be held and not fired until after the drinks hit the table or for that to somehow have been communicated. Food arrived as it was ready, we pretty much did everything on the menu since we knew it was small plates and tapas style. The tamale was my favorite item, ceviche was a strong second, and the empanadas were delicious! A few of us ordered additional drinks, but never all of us at once and each time the drinks took a long time. The very last one we ordered we ended up cancelling. We did express to our server that we felt the wait for drinks was extensive, we were told the delay was because it’s a craft cocktail bar. Table maintenance or even suggesting drinks as opposed to waiting for us to order them may have made for a more pleasant experience. Considering it’s still new, hopefully drink builds can be simplified and a better service flow can be established.

   Last night was absolutely amazing!!! The food OMG!!! so seasoned, not oily, perfect tapas. I visited for my birthday, but the restaurant is a great location for date night or a first date. The atmosphere is sexy but not too dark, I will visit again and often.

   Love the vibe and the service was excellent. The food is really good. One dish, the lamb barbacoa was a little salty, but I'm chalking it up to us dining late and will definitely try it again.
