This place on the former grounds of Menya Sanji may look like a tapas bar on the surface, but it's actually a little izakaya run by a friendly Japanese couple with mandatory drink requirements and a selection of nihonshu to go with your Padrón peppers and tortilla (1 Tras Link #01-14). Most of the food is properly Spanish, although an occasional hint of Japanese popped in there, like the lamb tsukune above. The food was edible enough, although I'm spoiled by regular runs to Spain for work so I'll spare the comparisons to what I can get there. What I would go back here for is the friendly and laid-back vibe; this place is fun for the same reasons why I like Al Solito.
