It is a lounge setting, festive place with a live band performing. It is dark but lively. With a couple bottles of wine, it’s a party!
Hamachi Tiradito
– Sliced hamachi with yuzu citronette, sweet peppers, shallots, and jalepenos
There seems to be a lot of sauce. Looks A little excessive too. While it does have the citrus taste, it wasn’t sweet as its look might appear. It was actually quite good. And I love the jalepenos and shallots that gave it the little kick and crunch.
Pulpo a La Gallega
-Saute Octopus, galician ajada and potatoes
Octopus was very tender. There were a lot of potatoes, and it’s rather salty. It would go very well with a couple of beers, or in our case, with some chilled white wine.
Rabo Encendido
-Tender slow braised oxtail, fiery rioja wine sauce, roast garlic-goat cheese malanga mash
Yes, we have a thing for oxtail. When it is on the menu, we couldn’t or wouldn’t restrain ourselves to not order it. Because when it is done right, it is irresistible. And this one is spectacular. Tender, meaty oxtail slow braise in red wine. It is rich, juicy! And look at those big chunks of meat!!! What a cow!!! That potato goat cheese mash was amazing too. And seriously, the portion here are ridiculously generous. Look at that plate, it is portion for two!
Chilean Sea Bass
-Fresh fillet pan seared, lobster cream lobster mashed potatoes
To balance the heaviness of oxtail, I thought we would order a fish. However, the sea bass is quite filling too. Large fillet of sea bass perfectly cooked, topped with lobster cream. YUM! The mashed potatoes, hidden with chunks and chunks of lobster. Oh I don’t know how to stop eating. Sorry, no dessert… I’m stuffed! (June, 2015)
