Our Ensenada friends recommended this place to us. The beau and I came here on Valentine's day just…read moreto stop in for a drink. It was in the middle of the day, a nice warm sunny day. The restaurant is located on the right side of huge Santo Tomas wine shop. Covelli has a nice little indoor dining area (very romantic) and a huge covered outdoor dining area. The entire place was decorated with hearts and flowers because of V-Day which made the experience even more fun! Our server was super nice and spoke english, but we told him to speak spanish to us so we can practice more and he was very sweet about it. He sat us at a cute and romantic wine barrel table with high chairs, decorated with a rose and he even brought out a candle and lit it for us. The menu is simple, 3 pages, mostly pizzas. On the back page of the menu are the drinks and appetizers. We ordered a glass of sangrias each and a cheese plate. The sangria is more like tinto de verano (which is red wine with lemon juice) and the cheese plate is queso fresco, olives and a bunch of oven baked toast with a garlic butter spread. it also comes with shredded cheese and a sour green sauce and a spicy red sauce. Our bill came out to about $10 with the current exchange rate! The service was excellent, food and drinks were delicious, we had such a wonderful experience here!

This is my 51ST review on Yelp! Seems fitting that it should be for Ryerson 51…read more I can only review the bar, which is awesome, but I have no doubt the food is pretty great too. Interesting, creative cocktails that are purely Mexican but of a distinction beyond margaritas and micheladas. Craft cocktails at their best, prepared by true mixologists. (Can we say, MEXologists? oh man, I'm such a racist). Awesome beer menu featuring some great craft brews. Weekends include live entertainment upstairs and not just the typical dance club stuff so common in Mexico, but real interesting musicians performing original takes on covers and their own compositions! If Pappas & Beer isn't for you, then you are definitely in for a treat stopping into Ryerson 51. Spend your money here. Spend ALL of your money here.

Everything started great, they even had my favorite beer Schmidtwick's. The food was delish and presented well. Our server was attentive and kind. The place was neat and clean, great for a mtg... The general manager came over and chitchatted with our table. I was the one who called the meeting, I chose the place via Yelp reviews. However, when the GM found out it was all three of our first time he proceeded to hand out his card. The guy that met me there was handed one, then my son who lives in Irvine was handed one. However, when I reached my hand out, he hesitated. I told him we don't live together (speaking of my son who was sitting next to me) and he started to hand it to me, but then pulled it back. He informed me it's in case we come back... funny, our topic of conversation that day was how hard it was for women growing up in my era and working their way up the ladder... how times have changed. Upon leaving, my guest laughed and said his wife would've gone ballistic at how the only woman at the table was treated. The GM appeared to look like we were the same age. I was quite insulted by his behavior. I hope something can be learned for my honest review. I did get a card, but I don't think I'll be back.

I was specifically looking for a tapas bar because we weren't particularly hungry and just wanted a…read morefew small bites alongside a good glass of wine. On the wine front, Gata absolutely delivers. The wine list is thoughtfully curated, and it's the kind of place where one glass quickly turns into two because there are simply too many interesting options to pass up. Unfortunately, the food didn't come close to matching either the quality of the wine program or the price point. We ordered the deviled eggs, which turned out to be hard-boiled eggs sliced in half with a piece of ham placed on top. When you order deviled eggs, you generally expect, well... the eggs to actually be deviled. We mentioned our disappointment to the bartender, who was wonderful, engaging, and genuinely enjoyable to talk with. The explanation was that this is simply their interpretation of deviled eggs. Fair enough, but it wasn't an interpretation that worked for us. Ironically, the standout dish of the evening was the pigs in blankets, which is not a sentence I ever expected to write about an upscale wine bar. They were delicious, but they also raised the question of why the rest of the menu wasn't reaching the same level. Looking back, we realized we were the only people actually eating while everyone else was there for the wine. In hindsight, that should have been the clue. I only wish someone had mentioned that before we made the trip over expecting a tapas experience. Gata has so much potential. The atmosphere is lovely, the wine selection is excellent, and the staff were fantastic. If the small plates eventually rise to the level of the wine program, this place could be truly special. Until then, I'd absolutely recommend it for drinks, but probably not for dinner.

Their take on an espresso martini and carajillo is the best version of an espresso martini I've had in San diego hands down. Do not sleep on it if you are an espresso martini girl.

The interior design was beautiful, but they also have a little outdoor patio. I appreciated the warm lighting inside and the cozy color scheme (greens and maroons). The Heads Will Roll drink was delicious! I don't like drinks too fruity. This was a sweet drink but it was very balanced, not overpowering, and strong compared to the taste. The server was nice. But it took a while after we finished our drinks to get the check and pay. There were lots of other guest there though.

When we entered the owner Chef Misha Moore was actually standing by the door welcoming customers. On our turn to sit down, she showed us the Menu and explained that their menu is still limited but probably by mid-November they will have their Full menu ready. To order food we were directed to the Bar to place our order and pay there and our food got delivered to the table. My wife ordered Moscow Mule for her drink and a Charcuterie Box, it has Prosciutto, salami , aged cheddar, triple cream brie/berry jam , fresh berries, grapes, olives, nuts, and crackers. For my food, I tried their Italian Meatballs with a side of toasted bread . We also had Dragon Rolls , its deep fried beef rolls served with homemade sweet chilli lime sauce , this Dragon rolls were crispy and good . Good size of Charcuterie box. The meatballs are well seasoned and decent size of meatballs, I like that the Marinara on their meatballs only has a slight sourness. Also when we started eating, they started a Trivia game so that was nice. Good music, a nice vibe, and delicious food and nice staff

The food was amazing and our server was great, friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service. We didn't have a reservation, so we completely understood that there would be a wait and never complained about it. However, the hostess came across as very rude and unwelcoming, which really took away from what could have been another great experience. We really enjoyed the food and our server was wonderful, so it's disappointing that the interaction with the hostess left such a negative impression. Hopefully, the front of house experience can be improved, as we'd love to come back.

I love how all their dishes weren't salty and honestly everything we got fit my taste profile. All my friends got matchas and a black sesame latte. Those were really good as well as someone who loves Matcha, it really hit the spot so I will most definitely be coming back. We also got the eggs Benedict and the beignets. Everything was so yummy.

It's about as close to Madrid (other than Balboa Park) as you're going to get in the county of San Diego...especially if you sit down at Barra Oliba. I literally felt like I was in a café in Madrid or Barcelona and enjoyed not only the familiar salty flavors that I've missed from Spain, but also the pure, rich, olive oil, and quiet ambiance as this is one block from the busiest part of Little Italy. My server, German, (his name) enjoyed helping me create the ideal light supper and allowed me to try a few Spanish wines (they have so many!). I settled on a Verdejo from Rueda. It was the right balance of fruit, acid, and slight floral to perfectly pair to my meal. I had the seasonal fish meuniere - white fish delicious and crispy on top (my favorite), garnished with capers and roe. It was accompanied with a tender lettuce and heirloom tomato salad with saffron dressing. The leftover dressing for the salad was the most amazing vinegar dip for a couple tater tots when I got home. The dressing was something I will go back for! Thank you, Barra Oliba for the perfect Spanish "girl dinner!" Can't wait to come back and try the Paella!
