Ms H.Ms Helene: Dark inside. Friendly service. Weak sangria. Best tapas were grilled shrimp with mashed plaintains and mini cod cakes.

JenKuduJenKudu: The classic sangria is delicious and surprisingly potent! The pecan crusted bass is really good, ESP the crema sauce on it.

Zack D.Zack Davenport: Seriously some of the best food I've had in LIC. The steak with espresso marinade melts in your mouth. The sangria is amazing. For dessert, the coconut flan takes the meal to another level. Amazing.
