Everything is top-notch: food, drink, MUSIC, ambiance. Note: the other night I was there, had a few and departed quickly when my Uber arrived. I forgot my wallet! The next day, it was there waiting for me. Nothing had been taken. Where else in the world could that happen?

Similar to the style of La Negrita, this place looks small from the outside, but as you walk in, you'll see it leads to an outdoor area with a small dance floor and a live band! Drinks are cheap here (e.g. 180 pesos for a bucket of beer). The place is adorable with tons of artwork and a wonderful open-air vibe. I'm not sure if they serve food here, as I didn't see any food on the menu, but I also came late.

I had mentioned that we didn't order them and she said they came with the beer, and oh my, it's genius! we literally didn't feel the need to leave the bar and ordered more than we should've. Some of the tapas were great, some were decent, nothing terrible but what a deal and concept.

It was not work it. They have other flatbread on the menu I hope they are not using pita chips. The fried calamari was good. The antipasto burrata was not a present nicely, needed more flavor, like more pesto sauce over the burrata and the pieces of the antipasto cut smaller which was only fried tomatoes and prosciutto in large pieces. Very disappointed in the food.

Maybe at night it's different but at noon it was absolutely a lovely brunch..
