We had a wonderful evening in Spain, on the corner of Ma Square. Intimate evening with a very creative, authentic Tapas menu. And...you must give 'build your own 'Gin & Tonic' a test drive. Sean, the weekend mgr, gave me a tour through the choices of Spanish gins, tonic type, bitter type, and spices. My Gin Mare, Mediterranean Tonic, Juniper berries, lime, and mint was the best G&T I've ever enjoyed. And as I sipped joyfully, we explored the menu and ordered Spanish olives (my wife ate more than half and she rarely enjoys olives by themselves) and Marcona almonds. We then got phenomenal Tortilla Española (the most delicate, lightest thin layers of potato and onions I've ever eaten); fried Spanish Sardines (a must!), Pan con tomato, and brilliantly prepared Turner mussels. We often try mussels (which rarely differ in taste and texture) and again, Silla's focus on authentic Spanish flavors and ingredients also made these mussels stand out as an amazing dish.
You must, must, must give Silla de Toro a try! Definitely get a reservation on the peak hours. If it's a date night, call and ask for the couples table up front. It's perfect. Most comfortable wing back chairs that create a visual intimacy AND an audible convo 'zone' eliminating the white noise around you both.
Obviously we will return whenever in Marietta. Already cannot wait.
