What a disappointment 10/7/2005

The food is good but the portions are small even by tapas standards. There are a couple nice tables but they are outdoors and the place is crowded. Indoors is loud and too brightly lit. Most of all, the service was not just horrible, but we were treated with utter contempt by our waitress- who turned out to be the manager! Pros: decent food Cons: price, service, attitude more

our waitress was practically at our beck and call. every plate was delicious and we were full and satisfied at the end with a modest bill. get the lava chocolate cake. and the shrimp. and the pickled garlic. and some sangria. darn good sangria -- not too over-poweringly sweet, and the atmosphere was relaxed and classy. best tapas i've had in new york. Pros: attentive service, rich food, inexpensive Cons: loud music later on more
