Regina C.Regina Connors: Excellent wine and tapas. But avoid if you want conversation. The decibel and reverb level is ludicrous. A slight auditory design change might fix the problem.

Valentin G.Valentin Guerin: When Casa Mono is crowded, stop at Bar Jamon for great tapas and wine! Try the Pan Con Tomate, awesome.

Lucille F.Lucille Fisher: Excellent place for a pre-dinner drink or an evening of tapas & vino. My favorite a place by the window. The bar is small so when it gets full, it tends to be noisy, not ideal for conversations.
