"Like its once-sister restaurant, Picaro, Esperpento is a haven for straightforward, affordable Spanish tapas dishes, albeit in a smaller, more intimate, and homely space. While Esperpento and Picaro no longer share the same owner, their relationship is friendly and the menus bear a striking resemblance to each other — including the unforgettable, garlicky salsa brava with a complimentary bread basket at every table." - Adrian Spinelli
