We had 4 small portions – two were very good (Patatas bravas, Albondigas de ciervo), and two were ok (Ensaladiilla russa, Bunuelos de merluza). The recommended wine was decent. Given the high ratings of the restaurant, we were rather disappointed.

Our service was good, the server was polite and very nice. Possible the best part of the experience was Paloma’s wine list. We are wine lovers and this list is EXTRAORDINARY. Covers all price ranges, from a fantastic red wine recommendation at 17.5€ to a Vega Sicilia Único 2009. The selections, red white bubbles, reflect a very deep knowledge of the best wines and producers in Spain’s main DOCs. It is simply astonishing Paloma is without a doubt, a diamond in the rough. She’s put together a wine list that outperforms most very high end restaurants we’ve been to around the world. And then, to finish, she also had Oremus Aszu Tokaji… and this is her second job. Just amazing! We went to Tapas 3.0 recommended by a local, don’t miss this small tapas place, it is excellent!
