Really nice wine and food, and great service. Although by far the oldest people in the restaurant, we were thoroughly impressed by the wait staff and the level of professionalism they showed. The meal was delicious, too.

Best sole meunière I’ve ever had. And the French fries and salad that came with it were perfection as well.

Quality of food could be better for the high acclaim this restaurant enjoys, as the sister restaurant of Le Chateaubriand. We had an issue with the seating. We didn't know that the short table for two people is so limited (only one when we were there). We extended our courtesy to let a couple who seemed very eager to renter first and they took the only short table. My wife has a knee issue and she had to sit on the bar chair and she suffered pain for the whole night and the next day. The restaurant should mention that they have only one short table. This way we would know what to expect. The food quality is not bad but in our opinion should be better.

The Service was Not ideal, Not friendly. And wanted us to leave early, a bit arrogant. Food was great though. The atmosphere hip and modern, good concept with the tapas style. Service should improve for sure.

Pristine environment for an amazing meal. Had help to pick out a delightful wine. Steak was perfectly cooked - a large portion with sides. And all the sauces from the artichoke to the salad dressing were highly addictive.

Some dishes are superb, such as the balut (sea snails), croquettes, octopus salad, and saffron bomba rice. Some not .The txangurro had so much parsley that it drowned out the crab meat's delicate flavor. The meat stuffing in the stuffed vegetables tasted more like turkey stuffing than meat balls.

Everything was perfect! The menu has just a few options and they are very well executed. The staff is friendly and very thoughtful. The atmosphere is great, but a bit noisy. Just the wines are a bit pricey.

We came to this restaurant hoping for a great night. But it was an absolute disaster. They advertised with gluten free high quality food. We discussed our allergy needs with the staff. Checked it twice. But were served food with gluten nevertheless. If we didn’t spot their mistake we would’ve kept on eating tons of food WITH gluten. The waiter responsible for the mistake smiled and excused himself for his ‘silly mistake’, not appreciating the damage he’d done.

Each of the 7 dishes the two of us shared except the cheese was delicious and interesting. The service was very good and we were seated immediately because we had an early reservation. The crispy tapioca squares were unique. The tuna tartare was subtle and addictive. The potatoes stuffed with crab were simple but delicious. The pork was perfectly cooked. The frozen yogurt like dessert was refreshing and perfectly balanced. The wines were fine. The goat cheese wasn’t bad it just was the least interesting dish of the evening perhaps because I was satiated. We will be returning.

Terrific food and great wine list. Servers know both well. Service was inattentive at times. Would go back in a minute though.

There were too many small problems to make this a more than an ok experience. First we had to wait for our table more than 15 minutes (one we had booked more than 2 weeks in advance). Our wine order was forgotten as was one of the dishes we ordered. It took forever for a waiter to come and take orders on the dessert at which point we decided to just take the bill because we didn’t want to wait any longer. We only received an indifferent apology for “slight” delays. The food was mainly very good as were the wines. There is one general problem in the restaurant space. The interior designer probably didn’t think much about the acoustics because all the surfaces including the ceiling are marble and mirror. This means the noise level is at times terrible.
