    Food and service was very good. Always coming around with different meats. The only complaint we had is they don't expect Visa gift cards. Also paid $120 cash for a $114.08 bill and only got $4.75 charge. Don't care to be robbed at a restaurant. Don't know if it was done on purpose for extra tip or they don't know how to make change. Just recommend if paying in cash give exact change. They would have gotten an extra tip besides the gratuity they automatically take out, but I just wasn't feeling generous after not receiving correct change.

    We tried about 7 tapas and each was equally delicious from the lamb chops to the short rib meatball to the chicharron de pollo. The drinks were delicious and not shy on the alcohol. Our service was amazing. We will be returning.
