    Visited the Distillery District and booked a table for two at Madrina. We had never been to a Tapas restaurant before, and this definitely set the bar high. Our favourite dish was the IBÉRICO PORK SECRETO STEAK — delicious. Other highlights were TORTILLA DE PATATAS and CATALAN CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS. Note: I have a shellfish allergy, so we didn't have any of the dishes that have those items.

    Waitress was a big aggressive about collecting a money deposit for tables larger than 6. Once dinner was stated they broke a glass bottle on the table while serving .

    Patria is absolutely divine. The ambience and decor and lighting are all designed to provide a comfortable and comforting setting for the enjoyment of their exquisite food. Every dish we've eaten there is delicious, interesting, well-conceived in terms of texture and flavour, and perfectly satisfying, i.e. filling without being too much. The range of options on the menu is extensive, and the wait staff is helpful for navigating the sometimes-confusing experience of ordering in a small-plates restaurant. Service is super fast, so if you want a long evening to linger with your companions, it's up to you to eat slow (or order the paella, which take 45 minutes to prepare).
