From Eve

Know before you go

Arrive with an appetite and plan to share multiple tapas dishes—this is the authentic Spanish way and allows you to sample more of the menu's creative offerings.
Reserve in advance, especially for Friday and Saturday evenings, as the compact space fills quickly and the restaurant manages its own bookings directly.
Ask your server for wine pairing recommendations from the Spanish wine list or inquire about the cocktail of the day for a curated beverage experience.
Visit during lunch hours (12:00–15:00) for a more relaxed atmosphere if you prefer a quieter dining experience than evening service typically offers.
Vegetarian diners will find inventive tapas options that honor traditional Spanish flavors while accommodating dietary preferences.
