Ocho

This is an excellent place for tapas that has some gluten free, vegetarian, and soy free options. The staff is very knowledgeable about their ingredients.

I really wish Ocho had more gluten free and dairy free options. We were pretty limited on food selection, just eggs and potatoes. While totally acknowledging the fact that 1. Ballard is expensive in general and 2. This isn't Spain, the dishes are over priced for the quality of food. I wasn't impressed with any of the flavors I tried (even the Albarino was not a good example of that wine). Tapas are supposed to be snack size, and they are, but since when does a snack size portion command a $10 price tag?
