"Nice spot to Eat delicious tapas for a good price. We finished at this restaurant after a tour. We really enjoyed the montaditas offered. A small sandwich with tasteful topping. Flavours were good, presentation ok. The Sangria was very good. Nice view of the church as well."

"I loved this place! Their creativity + quality make it totally worthy. We had some of their lollipops - I could not choose a favourite once, loved them all. The idea and execution is unbeatable. Also had some tapas sandwiches and they were all amazing. Highly recommend! As an extra, they have gluten free beer! Loved it!"

"Nice spot after hiking up and down the Santa Barbara. Order and pick up at the counter if you're sitting inside. The larger beer size was so refreshing and paired well with the tapa dishes. The mini sandwiches were my favorite. The menu is huge so lots of options for big or small bites."
