Creative tapas run the gamut from Cantabrian to Andalucian and from Asian to Mexican at this contemporary, white-walled lounge-bar-restaurant. Try Cantabria’s beloved rabas de calamar (fried squid) or Pasiego cheese quesadillas, along with one of the lyrically described wines. The menu includes some good vegetarian options, and there's a handy €14 set lunch (€19 on weekends) in the upper-level restaurant.
