Excellent dining experience. Everyone on the staff was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, prompt, and friendly! Our waiter answered all of our menu related questions beautifully. I am gluten intolerant, and my dining partner was not, so I'll leave notes after the items about the gluten content. We told the staff beforehand, and they were great about answering my questions about gluten containing ingredients. We tried 'I Smoked my breakfast' and 'Where's the smoke?' cocktails. Both were great! 'I Smoked my breakfast' was smooth, sweet, and spirit forward. 'Where's the smoke?' had the signature smokiness of mezcal balanced with light and refreshing citrus notes, not too sweet. I'm looking forward to trying more cocktails in the future. The menu also has low ABV and nonalcoholic craft cocktail options, so there's something for everyone. We had: Patatas bravas - a generous serving of crisp potatoes covered in a balanced spicy sweet tomato sauce and mayo drizzle. These took me back to the restaurants in Barcelona, a very nice representation of a traditional favorite. (Gluten friendly as is) Haloumi cheese - the green sauce and bean salad paired nicely with the fried haloumi cheese, I would order this again. (Gluten friendly as is) Beet salad - very good! I always enjoy a good beet salad. (Order without crackers and barley to make gluten friendly) Cheeseburger - a good burger and something on the menu for the less adventurous diner. (Bun, not gluten friendly) Roasted piri piri chicken - seriously amazing. The waiter described the heat level and flavors perfectly when he said the 6 out of 10 spice of the chicken is balanced with the buttermilk sauce on the bed of green beans and potatoes. I would eat this chicken again and again. (Gluten friendly as is) Chocolate cheesecake - this crustless cheesecake caught my eye as a gluten friendly dessert option. Garnished with a chocolate ganache and candied orange pieces, this final course was both exactly what I needed and what put me over the edge of way too full. It's hard to pace yourself when everything is so good. (Gluten friendly as is) We also had the pleasure of chatting with the owner during our meal. He was friendly and kind, the ideal host. I highly recommend this gem of a restaurant! I'll certainly be back.

The small bites appetizer in the bar was amazing. Cocktails wonderful, truly imaginary, great staff. Only issue with their menu is that it doesn't list gluten free options. So if you have a sensitivity or allergy, I'd call ahead and ask your questions first.
