What a great time!! Christmas decor and fun music were going on. We all got cocktails and tapas and we were all delighted ❤️ we ordered the pan con tomate, and because there was a party upstairs, it took a little longer than usual to come out. We loved it and had no complaints, but our waiter felt it wasn’t up to normal standards so he comped it for us!! How nice of him!! And he asked if we were celebrating something and we just said being off for winter break so he brought us free churros, too 😂💃🏼 it was a great experience and all the food was fabulous… especially those dates omg!
