    Can't go wrong on this menu! Tried a bunch of different tapas and loved then all! Favorites: beef empanadas, fries calamari, & chocolate cake and fresh fruit dessert!

    The crab and mango stuffed avocado is yummy! Also try the broccoli + cauliflower fritters and the grilled shrimp w/ spicy mojo verde. The raspberry flan is the only thing I wouldn't order again.

    The food is amazing and the atmosphere is very romantic and relaxing. Great for group dates, wear nicer clothes and def get the house sangria! Perfect for breezy summer evening dining.

    Drinks are unforgettable here. Hand-crafted and fresh to order. Food is excellent. I love small plates of food. Even the french fries are delicious.

    If you get the goat cheese and sauce tapas, get something to put it on or you'll have a bowl of sauce for dinner.

    Braised short ribs, seared salmon, and the sizzling shrimp really hit home. The mint julep and side car is great!!!

    The Pato Braseado (Roast Duck with Berry Sauce) is a must have for us!

    The Valenciana Paella is just plain awesome. If ordering tapas, this will come out last, so be sure to save room.

    If Sangria's not your thing, try the Alhambra Lager beer. Tasty, drinkable brew that goes great with the tapas.

    The Lomito calabrales are to die for. However the calamari dish here is very bland and is chewy.
