This crowded restaurant/bar turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Low key atmosphere and prices, but the creative tapas were all good and reasonably creative. From the entrance all you can see is the crowded bar, but there are a few tables in a back room if you want to sit down. The wine selection, by glass or bottle was basic, but good value - I think the most expensive bottle was under €20.

We ate boletus croquetas, squid-ink risotto, beef-cheeks (dont remember what they were done with but they were delicious), green salad with fried goat’s cheese and boletus raviolis. We even had desert: tiramisu and chocolate backed with berries. I’d re-order any of it, except possibly the boletus raviolis, but there were lots of other interesting things on the menu we didn’t try.
