The cocktail menu is boldly creative, while the wine list showcases highly rated Spanish and Portuguese vintages. For those looking to join in on the fun spirit-free, there are a few well- designed mocktails. A fan-favorite food item for the table is the Jamon Iberico de Bellota, which is hand-cut from the famous acorn-fed, black-footed Spanish pig.

The Wagyu air bread must not be missed: it is symphony of Japanese beef, Manchego cheese espuma, caramelized onion jam and chives. Savor generous portions of carefully selected cuts of classic Wagyu and Kobe beef, prepared tableside on an Ishiyaki stone.
