Cooks & Soldiers

Great dinner at C&S tonight. We stopped in for dinner just as a way to avoid Midtown traffic, and it ended up being sort of perfect. I started with the Nearly Orsamus, which the bartender on staff created. I loved the way he explained the background of the drink while he was making it (shame on me for not getting his name, because he really made the evening). It’s a great summer drink, I loved it. We had a couple of the specials — house-​made focaccia with goat cheese, sausage and peaches, and their fantastic take on gumbo, along with the veal cheeks and broccoli. I’m going to think about that gumbo for a long, long time.

Was so glad did a tasting night with 3 foodie gals. For a group of 4, we ordered 1bottle of white wine, 3 traditional tapas, 5 special tapas and 3 desserts.
Everything is perfect and delightful, we were all got wooed by the food and service here, our waiter Jane was so professional, friendly with great sense of humor. Nothing goes wrong with our dishes, thanks to our smart gal ordered the food!
Again, the taste, the presentation, the décor and the service, it is another success under the Castellucci family group, well done!

A good overall experience at this modern looking tapas restaurant in midtown with valet parking. There is basically three types of food categories you can order from. There is what is called Tradicionales which is basically finger foods served atop toasted bread which comes with 2 per order and costs $ 6 – 9. There is the Especiales which is your Basque small plates, or tapas, which ranges from $ 7 – 18 (popular items sit in the $ 12 – 16 range). And finally there is the Asador which is your larger meal portions that are woodfire grilled to share. These are a bit pricier in the $ 32 – 74 range. The server recommended ordering the Asador first, then Especiales, and finally Tradicionales depending on your hunger level.
We like ordering tapas and trying a variety of items, so we went straight for the Especiales. Here is what we ordered:
Escabeche $ 12 — These are your mussels and local shrimp in a tin can paired with lemongrass pearls on a squid ink toast. It was ok. Not a huge fan of the squid ink toast as I was worried it would stain my hand or mouth black.
Bikini $ 9 — Someone told my wife that this was the «most delicious bite» she’s ever had in her life. While I wouldn’t go that far, I will say it’s the most delicious grilled cheese I’ve ever had. It comes with ham and black truffles, it’s grilled perfectly, and it’s absolutely delicious.
Vieras $ 17 — Probably my favorite dish of the night. It comes with pan seared scallops, corn, trumpet mushroom, turnip, pearl onion, and strawberries. There is just so much flavors that come with this dish, and the mixture of soft and crunchy was excellent. Everything came together perfectly. I wish there was more.
Foie Gras $ 18 — This was the most disappointing of all the dishes. Nothing much to like about it. The seared foie was not that tasty, the braised cabbage was sour, and the grapes were just too small to enjoy any flavor added. I would not recommend this dish.
Trout Navarre $ 14 — Georgia trout with swiss chard leaves, hazelnut romesco sauce, and crisp potatoes. It was definitely flavorful with varying degrees of texture. I thought it went well with the swiss chard and the potatoes were a nice addition.
Overall the meal, minus the foie gras, tasted great and had a nice presentation. The interior is your typical modern, chic looking building with unfinished looking open ceiling, hanging lights, book shelf in the middle of the room, and an open kitchen. The service was good and with reservations there was no wait time. Nice to try once, especially the grilled cheese.

Overall, this ranks as the best restaurant I’ve been to in Atlanta in my two years traveling back and forth from Chicago.
The restaurant shined in wine selection (compliments to their certified sommelier), creative flavor profiles (basque influence with Italian subtleties), service (knowledgable waitstaff and excellent customer service), and the best dessert in the city (none other than the Basque came with Luxardo soaked cherries and pineapple upside down cake childhood dream elegance).
Better than Gunshow, better than The Optimist, better than anything. Just go.
Chef Landon should be on this year’s radar for a James Beard nomination and hopefully he gets the nod.

I’m sorry, I would love to give a better review. But after my bigger party was served poorly, I only have to give a lower review. Yeah the food is great, but after waiting over an hour for our food to come out, it doesn’t make up for the overall experience. Management tried to make amends with sides of potatoes and asparagus, however it wasn’t enough to make up for the overall experience. Yes they can accommodate for larger groups, but the service is highly compromised. Maybe another time. Our server was great, but whoever was expediting the kitchen needs to re focus… We were able to watch other patrons come to the restaurant and be served and leave way before our main entrée came out.

Loved the décor at C&S. The food, however, was a bit disappointing. The menu is divided into 3 sections: pintxos tradicionales (basically fancy toasts), pintxos especiales (small shareable plates), asador (woodfire grilled items). We ordered a good selection of dishes to share; unfortunately, most of them lacked flavor for me. Dessert was the best part of our dinner.
~ Gambas y Pulpo — Royal red shrimp, Spanish octopus, cucumber, celery, radish, smoked trout roe on toast — this was pretty bland & disappointing
~ lengua — Braised tongue, pearl onion, caper and garlic confit, allioli, lemon on toast — great flavors!
~ tartare — cured tomatoes, traditional accompaniments, carrot ‘yolk’ — pretty good & creative
~ Azalorea Erreta — charred cauliflower steak, cauliflower cous cous, capers, carrot chicharrón — I might’ve expected too much out of this… I expected to be wowed by some interesting take on cauliflower but nope it just tasted like bland cauliflower
~ Croquetas de Jamón — Jamón croquetas, béchamel, piquillo, garlic allioli — this was just meh… again… pretty bland in my opinion
~ tile fish — special of the night — I can’t remember everything that came with it but this was decent. The fish was very fresh but the whole dish again lacked flavor to me.
~ Trout Navarre — Georgia trout a la plancha, black garlic, Jamón Ibérico, swiss chard, hazelnut romesco, crisp potatoes — this one had more flavors than the other dishes but was still missing something
~ Escabeche — mussels and local shrimp, squid ink toast, lemongrass pearls — loved the squid ink toast; everything else was just ok
~ Chistorra in a Blanket — sausage, croissant, cider glaze, maple-​mustard allioli — I think this was our favorite item; the croissant is perfectly flaky & delicious
~ chocolate & corn — Pink peppercorn gelato, corn crème anglaise, caramel popcorn, house creamed corn, chocolate tart — delicious! surprisingly everything went really well together; the chocolate tart was super smooth
Valet parking on 14^th St. Full bar. Reservations are recommended. Private room available.

One of the top 3 restaurants on this side of town. Great service, delicious food (that comes out in a timely manner the way tapas are supposed to), and the atmosphere is modern and chic. It’s perfect for a group of 10 for a party or for a romantic celebration. Last night was my fourth time at the restaurant and it was definitely my best experience. Laura was our waitress and she was amazing! Best service, great recommendations, and super friendly. I would ask to sit in her section if you go!

It’s one of those ATL restaurants you have to cross off your bucket list. Came here on a Sunday evening for dinner and was seated with ease. Everyone there was very pleasant and had an impressive knowledge of almost everything on the menu. To be honest, they could’ve told me I was eating some fancy obscure animal intestines (we did get tongue) and I’d nod with appraisal.
Our server was nice, a bit forward, but very nice and entertaining. She recommended the La Lorea for a basic cocktail drinker like myself and it awesome. It was very citrus-​y and I downed that sucker like nobody’s business. Friend got the cream bee pollen (what?) cocktail and it was hella strong.
We got the «queso» dip plate with 3 assorted cheeses made from goat??? and mustard seeds? I’m god awful at remembering fancy descriptions of food the size of my thumb.
I definitely recommend the tongue, octopus, scallops, NOT the salad (don’t come here to eat a salad pls), foie gras, asparagus and the pigs in a blanket. I suggested they open up their own bakery because their bread IS THE BOMB, especially the croissant wrapped around the sausage. This is the first time I’ve ever had foie gras and my friends had hyped me up to try it but I wasn’t all that impressed. We also had their asparagus, which I do recommend.
I’m all down for tappas and this place does it better than others. Would definitely recommend to others if looking for a new atmosphere with an innovative menu.

Friday dinner date. I can’t believe it’s taken us so long to go here.
Pato Ahumado — We started off with this and while it was delicious, I think the portion size was a little disappointing. The duck confit pairs well with the cherries and bleu cheese for a mélange of flavors.
Patatas — These are basically just fancy fries and I didn’t like how fried they were but the boyfriend seemed to like them so YMMV. The sauces weren’t anything to write home about either in my opinion.
Lomo de Cerdo — Holy shit, just order this. The pork loin is SO tender and the accompaniments are cooked so perfectly that I would definitely order this again instead of trying something new.
Wild Mushrooms — I like mushrooms so honestly I am probably a little too biased but I thought this was super delicious.
Brussels & Beets — Honestly this was a little weird & maybe a bit too smoky for my tastes (I know, I know, wood-​fired grill and all that) but if I could get past that, the slightly sweet flavor of the beets marinated well with the Brussels sprouts.
Fruity Pebble — this was too adorable to pass up and creatively plated!
Verdict — I think it was a good experience & the food was great but I’m not sure I would come back, for reasons I can’t put my finger on.

Amazing! From start to finish. From the hostess welcoming us to the manager greeting us on our way out. There was a lot of great teamwork with all the servers and they were all really nice to us. The bartender/​server that we had was really nice and informative and gave us a lot of information about all the dishes before we chose a few tapas-​style dishes. We went in the early evening so it was before dinner time and after lunch time. We sipped on some cocktails and had a few plates. Unfortunately I don’t remember the name of everything, but I do remember we had the pigs in a blanket (3 to an order), octupus (2 to an order), head cheese with a duck pâté board, toast with tomatoes and cured ham, and croquettas (3 to an order). Everything tasted amazing! Décor was nice with a very open dining room and ambiance was mellow and laid back.

Absolutely fantastic attentive service. The wine was phenomenal– good enough to ask for a second bottle no questions. Tapas selection excellent. Loved the jamon, cheese plate and LOVED the Apple dessert. Amazing meal with the trout. Patas way more crispy/​fried than expected. Would go back if ever in Atlanta again!

Just 5 years ago, I couldn’t have imagined a basque restaurant setting shop in a city like Atlanta, but it has now happened. Is the effort appreciated? Very much. But what about the preparations?
GREASY GREASY
Gosh, it was nearly impossible to eat the bread they have here, it is drenched in bitter oils and fats to the point where you don’t even taste the Pinchos. The only other place I recall eating bread this bad was at King & Duke in Buckhead. Seriously, I had to completely disassemble this pathetic attempt at a Pincho and eat the lengua separately and the octopus separately from the bread.
FRIENDLY FOLKS
Our server was a very pleasant fella and got solid tip that he worked very hard for.
PLEASANT VIBES
If it wasn’t for the food being so disappointing, I would have unquestionably come here. At this point, the only reason I might even stumble in is to try something other than the pintxos. But not sure if I will, if they can’t get a staple basque cuisine right, I am hesitant about the rest of the menu.
WIKIPEDIA, REALLY?
Yes, most of their description on the site is pasted directly from Wikipedia. I am all for reusing knowledge, but have some creativity if you are going to make an «About» page. Perhaps tell me the inspiration for drenching the bread in bitter oil…

I went here for a work dinner. Overall great experience-​food, drinks, ambiance, and the service. Since there were a lot of us, we got a bunch of dishes and shared.
Spanish Octopus: I am a huge fan of octopus! This is pretty good but I think the ones at The Optimist and Kyma are better.
Charred cauliflower steak: a very unique dish. Who would’ve known cauliflowers can taste so good?
Pan-​seared scallops: cooked to perfection. So good, definitely recommend it.
Paella: My favorite dish on the menu! It’s not your traditional Paella and it’s pasta based which I thought was very unique. The flavor was so rich and seafood in it was cooked so perfectly.
Bone-​in rib eye: overall pretty good. But I would suggest getting some of the other tapa dishes over this because you can get steak at many other places.
Our waiter was very attentive and gave us great suggestions. Overall a great dining experience.

Atmosphere: Fantastic time here last night. Décor was very modern and fun. We were promptly seated without anyone around us which was nice. My wife and I commented about the cool set up of the kitchen to see the large ovens and also the art on the wall.
Service: The service was top notch and our server Haley was extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of the food and drinks. Everything we ordered we had a very vivid in depth description and any follow up questions were answered. Our waters never got below half empty throughout the entire meal.
Cana Klasikoa: We started with a wonderful appetizer of toasted bread topped with tomatoes, goat cheese, shallot jam, and caramelized pistachios — delicious! They were small but very full of flavor. I fun small bite dish to start the evening. $ 6
Pulpo: We followed this up with an order of the pulpo and seared duck. The pulpo was a little different due to it being in a pool of squid ink, but the meat itself was amazingly tendered. I think that we were persuaded to ordered this due to the wonderful description Haley provided. I do not see us ordering this again, as it was just a little too weird for us. $ 17
Pato Bularreko: The seared duck was fantastic. Best duck I’ve had. Period. Order this. The mushrooms were heaven. $ 16
Chutelon: Finally, the reason we came here was because of the fantastic reviews of the Chuleton — a 1 kg ribeye steak with Tempranillo bordelaise and ensalada verde. It was masterfully crafted and grilled! After going on a small sample of steaks restaurants in the ATL area, I can say that this was one of the best cuts of meat and also one of the best prepared steaks Ive had in the city. I would go back here again just for this dish. Definitely something to share on a date or in a group. $ 74
Misc.: There is valet parking that is easy to get too, but also street parking when available. C&S will be a spot that my wife and I keep in the back of our minds when needing a dinner spot to celebrate occasions! A great overall experience!

I recently took a short trip to Atlanta, first time, and wasn’t 100% sure what to expect in terms of the food scene. I mean, I’m quite familiar with Waffle House, but wanted to, you know, go beyond the land of late night waffles. I got a tip on a few places, and had to check them out. First, I was off to Cooks & Soldiers.
First off, the aesthetic here is wonderful. The space is open, a little industrial, but structured, with fantastic light fixtures. The menu is mainly driven by Spanish cuisine, with some other Mediterranean influence. Everything on the menu sounded incredible, and luckily, the focus is mainly on sharing plates, so, you get to try a number of things.
First, I had the Hongos Y Setas (coal roasted mushrooms, goat cheese crème fraiche, black truffle). Are you there, God? It’s me, Sprung, and I would like to eat this everyday. Thanks. This was so incredibly delicious. The toast is crisp around the edges, and softened in the middle, soaking up the rich truffle flavor and smear of crème fraiche to cut a bit of that richness. The mushrooms are tender and flavorful, and all together perfection.
Next, I had the Tortilla Espanola (classic Basque omelette, onion and potato, garlic allioli). Another total slam dunk here. The layers of potato are savory and tender, and the garlic allioli on top adds a creamy richness that compliments it so nicely. It was completely delicious.
After that, I had the Ratatouille (Piperade, wood grilled squash and eggplant, one hour egg, guindilla). This was a very nice dish, but not my favorite of the bunch. The vegetables were absolutely fresh and delicious, but I would have preferred them to be a bit more stewed, since they were a little al dente to me. The flavors were really nice, but I’m also not a runny yolk type of person, so the egg kind of threw me off.
Next, I had the Azalorea Erreta (charred cauliflower steak, cauliflower cous cous, capers, carrot chicharron). This was pretty fabulous. The cauliflower’s natural flavors maintained their integrity, and when paired with the creamy and rich sauce that they were laid on top of, it really balanced nicely. I loved the capers with this, adding a bit of saltiness to the more neutral flavor of the cauliflower, and the carrot chicharron was just brilliant.
Finally, the winner of the evening might have to go to the Pulpo (grilled Mediterranean octopus, guanciale, roasted new potato, fennel, squid ink). To start, visually this was gorgeous. The squid ink here was in more of a substantial sort of purée than I’ve had before, and I loved it. It was savory and spicy and amazing. The charred fennel went really well with the spice of the squid ink, balancing out the bitterness. The octopus was perhaps the most tender octopus that I’ve had, completely melting in your mouth. On top was probably the most interesting element, not noted on the menu, I believe that I was told is might have been a paper-​thin taro crisp? It was basically like rice paper, but salty and seemed to have the flavor of a taro root. It was fantastic.

Made a reservation for a Saturday evening (6:45). It wasn’t super packed, but the tables were slowly filling. Thanks to Unilocalers on tips for parking! We were able to know ahead of time where to park: complimentary valet in the garage right next to the restaurant.
We opted to order 7 pintxo especiales (small dishes) and 2 pintxo tradicionales (appetizers served atop toasted bread) and share between 3 people.
Everything we ordered was very good; however, the dishes I would absolutely recommend are:
1. Pan con Tomate, add jamón ibérico
2. Vieiras– This comes with 2 huge perfectly seared scallops.
3. Chistorra in a Blanket– The croissant is so buttery, flaky and amazingly good!
4. Veal Cheek– The meat was very tender and reminded me of braised short ribs.
5. Stuffed peppers (special of the night) — These were stuffed with pork belly and topped with a cheese (maybe goat cheese). So flavorful!
Our server was excellent! He gave us great suggestions and was very attentive throughout the meal. He made it much easier to decide on what to order.
I would definitely come back here.

As to be expected from the owners of Iberian Pig, menu items are heavily focused on pork, cheese, and seafood. Luckily I have no issues with all of the above so it was a tasty meal for me!
The night started off well when I scored free street parking right in front of the restaurant and our group was promptly seated in the middle of their large dining area. There is easy garage parking behind the restaurant in the same building so that part is also easy. The crowd was loud and lively, which was fun for our girls night out but maybe not so much for an intimate and romantic dinner for two.
As per usual, we shared all our dishes family style so I got to sample a little bit of everything. We started with the Vieiras (or scallops), Pulpo (grilled octopus), and Fideua ‘Paella’. I really enjoyed the scallops which came on some crunchy fennel and apple for a nice contrast in texture. The paella was very simple with just shrimp, mussels, some ground pork, and an interesting short pasta called fideuà. It was my first time not having a rice version of paella and I loved it! The octopus was good, but the squid ink weirded me out a bit. It was okay but my least favorite dish of the night.
As for our main entrée, we opted to share the whole wood grilled red snapper that was on the menu for the night. It was seasoned perfectly and had a ton of meat to go around. I highly recommend this if you’re with a group and want to share a fish. I believe our red snapper was 2.5 pounds! We complimented ours with a side of charred cauliflower.
And for dessert, we tried their pumpkin cheesecake and also their chocolate and corn dish. The chocolate bar was not overly sweet and the corn was interesting. Not my favorite but I have to give them credit for creativity.
All in all, a very satisfactory night out. The food was delicious without being too heavy and ambiance, service, and drinks on point.

I would give Cooks & Soldiers between a 4 & a 5. Since I genuinely liked everything I consumed and left happy, I’ll round up! I studied abroad in Spain so I had high expectations for this place, and I wasn’t disappointed.
We ate at C&S on a Sunday night. It wasn’t packed but it wasn’t empty either; the patio area where we sat was full. Our server was very friendly and attentive. We described to him the type of wine we wanted and he hit the nail on the head. We were off to a good start.
To begin, we ordered pan con tomate and two pintxos tradicionales — the hongos y setas (mushroom) and pulpo y piperado (octopus). Both were traditionally served on crispy crostini bread. I enjoyed both. The pan con tomate was good but less traditional — tasty nevertheless.
We then moved on to the pintxos especiales (small plates) where we ordered the patatas (potatoes), vieiras (scallops), pato pastoreo (duck), croquetas de jamon (croquettes with ham), chistorra in a blanket, and one asador simultaneously — the ratatouille.
Potatoes — excellent. I expected more of a patatas bravas set up and I didn’t get that, but I was super impressed by this dish. Sort of a Spanish play on French fries with a cheese dipping sauce and a basque ketchup. I could eat these bad boys all day.
Scallops — also excellent. We had them made without the fennel and it was awesome. These seem to be extremely underrated. The scallops themselves were perfect and the flavors in this dish were perfectly balanced.
Duck — I love duck. This was one of my lesser favorites because I think the duck was overcooked, but this had some good stuff in it too. The mushrooms were delicious and the duck jus was great.
Croquettes — Very traditional. Beschamel in the middle, good flavor, perfectly proportioned. I was surprised that three big croquettes came in this dish, especially for the price.
Sausage in a blanket — I don’t even like sausage and I was still eating this. The mustard dipping sauce is incredible.
Ratatouille — Big chunks instead of the usual chopped up stuff. Good flavor, lots of veggies, nice sized portions.
All in all, great experience. Would love to come back — we saw a bunch of other small plates and several large plates /​desserts go to other tables and every item looked /​smelled amazing. Would definitely recommend.

Went here for restaurant week earlier this fall after a lot of waiting. I can’t believe I’ve been here for 5 years (prior to my last year in Baltimore) and hadn’t eaten here. Tapas is one of my favorite things to indulge in and while my go-​to spot is Iberian Pig, I was chomping at the bit to try their fix prix menu. Things we ate included:
Shrimp on Toast
PROS
–Definitely shareable but probably one plate for two people
–Good flavor
–Bread was not soggy which meant that it came out fast instead of sitting under a heat lamp
CONS
–Not shareable between four people
— — –
Halibut on Toast
PROS
–shareable for two
–generous portion of fish
CONS
–way too salty. It tasted like a salt lick had been dumped into the fish.
— — -
Pan Con Tomate: this is probably one of my favorite tapas ever. It’s even more delicious in Spain. I think this one dish was the closest to authentic Spanish tapas.
PROS
–awesome flavor, not overwhelming with the tomato-​bread balance
–well portioned
–served with Iberico ham (Jamon Iberico), one of my favorite type of meats
CONS
–considering this is a favorite of mine, it’s hard to share between 4 people but 2 people? I’d make an exception if it was a significant other.
— — –
Carpaccio: definitely well plated, great flavors. I can’t say that there was a con with this dish and so I am going to write just what I think. It’s very difficult to share this dish because essentially, each person only gets a bite. The sauce was great, the fish was pretty fresh tasting as well. No complaints here!
— — –
Clams in Sauce: definitely not the biggest favorite. For one, it was pretty salty, just like the halibut on toast. I am not sure if this is just the «flavor» of the restaurant itself or if it’s just a fluke chance that two out of the four or five dishes we’ve ordered came out salty. That’s bordering on 50% salty dishes. My friend who polished off the dish said that there wasn’t enough wine. While she tends to like the wine to be a bit stronger, I couldn’t really taste it in the sauce so maybe she was correct.
— — –
Seared Trout: this was a really great dish. The fish was just amazing. It had that awesome crispy skin and also had great portions for sharing. The sauce had some pretty good flavors that balance out the fish and the kale. It also wasn’t ridiculously salty either. No cons.
— — –
Seared Octopus (Pulpo): it is really difficult to do octopus well, but C&S did a fantastic job. It wasn’t over cooked at all but rather, had that awesome expected tenderness to the meat. The seasoning went really well with the chickpea smear as well. I have to admit though, it was slightly salty. At one point, we saw the chef being extremely «generous» with the salt, «heavy handed» some would say. I’m sure that it is probably a restaurant tactic to maximize the amount of alcoholic drinks purchased at dinner, but for those of us who really go for the food, it takes away from the quality of the dish. I wish they wouldn’t do that but hey, what do I know?
— — –
Smoked Duck: this was my favorite dish. In fact, it was such a favorite at the table, we ordered two of this in addition to the octopus.
PROS
–not gamey
–super tender
–great flavors
CONS
–some of the second plate had meat that was ridiculously chewy. I think it was just a cut that had a tad bit too many ligaments for me for the second one. Flavors were still spot on though.
— — –
Braised Veal Cheek
PROS
–perfectly done: meat was just flaking off at my fork and was super tender
–great au jus flavor, not overly salty like the octopus and the shrimp on toast
–best combination with the purée. I can’t remember what kind it was though, possibly parsnip?
CONS
–none
— — –
Seared Foie Gras: definitely pricey but worth it if you can afford it. I know it’s absolutely revolting for animal lovers, but I’m limited to my animal love and not so much with my food love so pardon my vices. This went REALLY well with the duck, the veal, and the octopus. Truth be told, it did make the perfect bite for some of these dishes. I can’t say I’m the biggest fan of the angel food cake bits though.
— — –
Pear Custard Brulee: I love brulees, especially in citrus form. The cookie that it came with was extremely cute and delicious as well.
PROS
–lighter and smaller than most crème brulees
–good size to finish off a fix-​prixe menu
–not overwhelmingly rich
CONS
–not for chocolate or decadent dessert lovers
–not for those who love desserts and have to share
— — — –
That’s that! Definitely looking forward to coming back here and trying a few other things on their menu. Thank you for a delicious meal, you don’t need too much salt if the food is already good ;) I took way more pictures but it was taking forever to upload on Unilocal for some reason. So they’re on the blog:

Second time’s a charm. It was certainly true for our second visit.
Pushing outside the box is definitely the mantra of this eatery. Of course it comes with a price. Not everything tastes outstanding but one thing is for sure each plate that comes to the table is a treat for the sight.
One thing that I love about this place is its ambiance. It’s very hip/​trendy without being snooty. The décor is modern yet is very welcoming. And one can sit there for hours and not feel rushed.
Our server Christian was just outstanding. She recommended wine and brought it out first for taste. And her recommendation was spot on.
The only negative I have to say is the size of the tapas. It’s a little too small for its price but then its tapas style. They do offer dinner size entrees, especially their full fish 2 or 3 lb which is plenty.
The other thing that makes this eatery outstanding is their constant change of menus. We went after about a month and were pleased to see newer options.
Overall it’s a great place to hangout with family or friends and I can’t wait to go back and be a part of the chef’s new culinary adventures.
