샌프란시스코에 간다면 꼭 가고 싶은 곳. 연주하시는 분이 조금 시끄러웠지만 분위기 좋았다.

Amazing food with attentive service. We had the quail, sausage with whit beans, green beans, patatas bravas, jamon and calamari. Two jugs of delicious sangria and two desserts. We had a lovely lunch. The restaurant only had one other table occupied when we were there, so difficult to comment on the atmosphere.
