Always a good time with best waiter, Roberto, to serve us. Arrived early and able to be seated. Good variety of tapas, and although we prefer eating outside in the courtyard, the rain forced a cozy seating inside.

Must haves: oyster, hamachi crudo and octopus. Our main dish was Japanese wagyu not on the menu; pretty good but cost $$$$$ as predicted. I would order the appetizers again. Service was so good too.

Our hostess was able to seat us inside but once inside the server didnt tend to us as much. The food was okay, but the vibe was perfect.

Nice Japanese yakitori bar where you can get decent drinks and yakitoris. I really liked squid ink karage and pork belly yakitori. Considering the price, portion is small here. If u want a place with drinks with small foods, i recommend coming here!
