Small plates, Spanish style. Nice atmosphere, cozy. Not as crowded as newer, trendier restaurants in area, but still good food and drink menu. Outdoor seating.

Hipster coffee joint with 2nd-hand decor in a not-so-well-lit space, so atmosphere is lacking, IMHO. BUT coffee is great, place is large, you can hang for a long time and there is outdoor seating!
