We were wandering around, looking for somewhere to eat. I had read a translation of a review and…read morehad put it on my list of places to try. When we came down one of the streets, it's so much fun to get a little lost, they had just opened, so we thought, what the heck!
The inside is cozy and inviting. They have these great cushy chairs and everything on their menu has pictures. We ordered a bottle of the Portia to start and the cheese sampler which went really well with the wine. There was a brie, a bleu, a munster(?), a hard white cheese(?), and this other one that was shaved like ruffles. Each one changed the flavor of the wine which was fun! We also ordered a jamon y brie tosta which was delicious!
We had to order another bottle, so we went with the Luis Cana. Again, the places we have been have several really good bottles on their menu, and that's pretty much all they need. We also ordered the molten chocolate cake and lemon meringue pie. Both came with chocolate sauce swirls on the plate and whipped cream on the side. Our server, Ruben, was attentive and friendly.
It didn't surprise us that we found ourselves back the next night for wine and dessert. This time we ordered the carrot cake and coco y Nutella (and another lemon pie). Ruben had recommended another bottle the night before, so we decided to try it. The carrot cake was alright, and the Nutella creation was okay, but they were fine to end the evening since we had that lemon pie again.
The vibe is really great! It's right across the street from the Teatro, so tapas and a play would be great, or a play and after-play wine and dessert would be fun. The whole staff is very friendly. If we had one more day, we'd probably come back for another meal.
