I always pass by the restaurant so I wanted to give it a try. When I walked into the restaurant, the host greeted us with a smile and sat my friend and me by the ledge. We, first ordered a sangria, which came in a nice wine glass with couple of fruits. The sangria was not too strong but can definitely taste the brandy. We ordered a couple of the apps, see the picture since i don't recall the names. The toast was delicious, but i also love tomatoes. I am not a big fan of anchovies but it was not as salty as i imagined. Then we got the grilled octopus with the crispy potato bites, which was not too oily. The scallop carpaccio was also very fresh and had little sweet jello in it. we can't figure out what it is but it went well with it. Last app we got was a barry's fresh barrada with thinly sliced ham with arugula on the bottom. The barrada was fresh but the arugula with the dressing was definitely the game changer on the dish. lastly for main, we shared a crispy rice paella and definitely no complaints here since we ate every single grain of rest. Even though my friend and i were full, we had to try the dessert. The waiter recommend this layered souffle dessert since everybody always get the churro. The dessert was probably the most interesting of all dish since it was part souffle, part foam and part lemony ice cream. Overall the atmosphere and the environment were amazing, a cute date spot for couples or girls night out.
