An icon of Spanish cousine in the Metro area for decades. From tasty pastries, huge selection of liquors and wines to their colorful "paellas" their menu and service is on a league of it's own.

One of those restaurants that's been around forever. Everyone from college students to high profile lawyers goes there. They have three menus. You can have tapas, a sandwich or a sopón de gandules for two for around $15.00 or you can enjoy fancy seafood dishes and a wide variety of vintage wines. Great service and open until around 2:00 a.m. on weekends.
