This place has an eclectic menu and everything is extremely tasty and well prepared. The bread pudding is out of this world!

Great New Place!!
By Lala from New Jersey, January 11, 2009

Overall rating:

As great and perfected as everything at this place is, you would never know it just opened recently! This is definitely a place that other tapas restaurants and wine bars should look out for. They have an extensive (and very impressive) wine list and a tapas menu that doesn't let you down regardless of what you order. The dishes are eclectic and presented beautifully. We ordered a number of tapas and desserts, each of which we shared so we could taste a little bit of everything. My favorites? Definitely the octopus, quail, goat cheese, and rack of lamb tapas. As far as desserts, the chocolate mousse melts in your mouth and the banana bread pudding is AMAZING!! The staff was very friendly and the ambience was trendy and romantic. We will be back!
