Yet I have middling feelings, mostly because while I enjoyed my parradilla, I wasn't amazed by it either. The beef was an okay cut, but had to be cut very small less it be too chewy. Pork was probably the best part of the meal and a massive portion, while the lamb was... I really wanted to like it, but it didn't have the wonderful seasoning and flavor I was hoping for. Seemed almost more like it could have been pulled lamb than the lamb chop I was hoping, so maybe it's just my expectations being off? Wine list is solid and the service is pretty good. 3.5 stars seems right.

We visited this restaurant before opening and loved the decorations... when hunting for food at the right time (during opening hours) we came back for dinner! The staff were super cool and showed great friendliness towards the kids. The salsa that came with the corn chips was delicious and I was tempted to get another round! They were quickly followed by an impressive ceviche (perfectly done). We enjoyed three flavours of tacos and everyone chomped some grilled corn! With friendly attentive staff, rapid service and delivery and delicious food you are on a winning combo! We would definitely return!

It's easy to find good ceviche but really hard to find exceptional ceviche, and this is one of them; reminds me of the ones I've had back in Peru. I also like spicy food, the kind that later you almost regret eating. If you like it as well, this is the place to go and ask for the Diabla Prawns. The staff was also very kind and friendly. An excellent experience throughout.

It's got a wonderful Latin American vibe, with a patterned brick floor, colourful banquettes & seats and - as is to be expected in a record store come café - delightful beats. The menu's pretty exciting too - think soft arepas , fresh & flavoursome tacos, quinoa cazuelas. I'd never had arepas before so I opted for them - 1 vegetarian, 1 pulled pork. As the waitress explained, Arepas are Venezuelan cornbread served lightly grilled, cut in half and filled with delicious goodies - sort of like a South American slider of sorts. It's hard to pick my favourite. The vegetarian one was filled with black beans, guac, a crunchy slaw and cilantro and the pulled pork was juicy as with some sort creamy dressing (mayo?) and pickles. They could of done with a touch more salt and more hot sauce (they did come with one but it wasn't spicy enough for me) but that's being fussy! I'm really looking back to heading back from brunch - they're open from 9am in the weekend! Ideal for summer.
