    This was my first time here, but it will not be the last. The menu appears very traditional Spanish tapas at first. Quite a few plates came out looking very different than what I expected. I’ve spent a good bit of time in Spain, and I’ve eaten at many tapas restaurants over the years. I’m quite familiar with the dishes being offered at this restaurant. The dishes may look different than what the traditional version (not in every case) looks, but the flavors are spot on in each. The flavors are well balanced, and the creative expression of traditional plates is welcomed. Try the crema catalana 🍮 . You will be super surprised but happy.

     The food was delicious. Service is great, cute spot not too big so keep that in mind if you’re going in a big group. The drinks are amazing as well. Would definitely recommend especially if you like seafood and tapa style restaurants.

    Service was outstanding, quite honestly could have been the best I’ve ever received in Charlotte. Our server Jordyn, Chris, and the GM were all extremely knowledgeable, diligent, and friendly.
