Cute little spot downtown. It’s smallish inside, though stylish with nice vibes. I wouldn’t necessarily come here with a big group, but perhaps a date night or a small group of 4.
I had a nice experience with everyone I interacted with, from beginning to end. Saw lots of smiles. Always a plus.
They have an interesting, one of a kind menu. It’s not just basic fares, but everything has a little twist or fusion vibes. We’re talking Mexican to Vietnamese in fine dining. That said, the menu called the dishes “Shareables”, and I expected them to be larger sizes to share, but it’s actually the opposite. They are more like Spanish tapas - small appetizer sized dishes, that I don’t want to share cuz they’re good lol.
Usually when i think of tapas, i think of a plate with items that can be shared easily, with everyone just grabbing a piece by hand, or a quick spoon. These shareables were like Italian family sharing kind of food (salad, steak, etc.) but in super small portions. Among the four of us, we each got maybe a bite or two of each dish. So really, it was more like we were “tasting” than “eating.”
Cheviche
Fresh! Yum!
Tofu something
Delicious. We had a vegetarian in the group, so I felt bad eating more than a bite, but definitely would have othewise.
Watermen salad
This was ok. Definitely fresh and good taste, but the watermelon itself was not super sweet and didn’t really add to the salad.
Flank steak
I would have been happy with this dish on my own. It’s an awkward dish to share, though the steak does come cut up, to make it easy to share, i assume.
Pork tacos
Yummy tacos.
Lumpia
Fried spring rolls, kinda like eggrolls. Good, but not break my keto kind of good.
Again, all the food items are pretty solid, though the experience of sharing these “shareables” weren’t my thing. Everything is quite pricey for the amount of food we got. My tastebuds were happy, but my stomach wasn’t satisfied. May be better for a splurge date night, with me eating more than my share.
