We were served a complimentary plate of grilled bread, hummus and a garlic cream cheese spread (2.5 Forks). Our first order was the obligatory pan fried dates with almonds in a balsamic reduction sauce and sprinkled with goat cheese (4 Forks) and Manchego mac and cheese (3.5 Forks). The second round was less successful: camarones al Ajillo (garlic shrimp) that were slightly overcooked and served at room temperature (2 Forks), a mundane house salad (2 Forks) and pastelillos pollo (chicken cake) served with a gribiche sauce (2.5 Forks). We closed out the meal with a chocolate tres leches cake.

This local tapas bar, emphasis on bar, is located near the South Point on Southern Highlands Parkway. We were started off with a plate of grilled bread, hummus and an addictive, though spicy, garlic cream cheese spread. Our first order was pan fried dates stuffed with almonds wrapped in bacon with a wine reduction sauce and blue cheese were above average, but the quesa fundido, baked cheese in a roasted pepper and tomato sauce lacked flavor. We then shared an entrée of paella which was disappointing due to the absence of saffron, a good seafood broth and chorizo. We concluded the meal by sharing a delicious flan..
