Ok, let’s start with the food. It did not feel much Spanish, even though at least half of them are supposed to be. Nonetheless they were all very tasty. The highlight for me was (surprisingly) the bruschetta. Omg so tasty. Now, in terms atmosphere and service there’s nothing to complain. Great in both aspects. The prices seem a bit high at first, but the tapas come in an appropriate amount.

We took the 6 tapas for 36 Euro combo and was good enough quantity. Tasty food and good service. The inside seating was full but sitting outside was fine in good weather.
