We had a great dinner experience. I highly recommend the ibérico ham with melon and Galician style octopus. They also have a nice wine selection of local wines. Staff was super friendly. We’ll go back next time we’re in town.

A Saturday evening, we were lucky to get a table as it seemed v popular later. We kept the choice simple with one lamb chops, one entrecote. Both superbly grillled and v high quality meat, nicely salted.
