Thinking about trying it this weekend. Was curious if the tasting menu or ala carte would be preferential.

Think it’s fantastic. Been several times - eaten twice. Giving the English names for everything.

Ham croquettes - phenomenal and filling. Crowd pleaser

Smothered potato chips - also filling and crowd pleasing. Nothing weird. And the meat on them is so rich

Chickpea and mushroom fritters - good but not as great as the ham

Sautéed garlic shrimp - really great, but it’s as good as any sautéed shrimp so wouldnt waste stomach room unless you’re not into the more adventurous stuff

Seared coulatte - this is probably the best thing I’ve had. I loooooove romesco sauce and also love beef so it’s everything I want in a dish. Superb

Mussels with saffron butter - I get mussels everywhere I go. These are good, but I’ll probably skip them next time

Lamb skewers - if you like lamb, you’ll love this. I’m so so on lamb, but it’s still executed very well

Grilled asparagus salad - same sauce as the beef above so of course it was fantastic. I used the plate to dip everything else into it

The plate of all 4 toasts - shocking myself, the white anchovy and goat cheese was sooooo good. The tomato too.

Gin cured salmon - love a good crudo type dish. Had the same tomato mixture that’s on the tomato toast. Sweet but with a fiery bite

Compressed cucumber salad - it’s cucumber salad

Pan fried gulf fish - fish of the day was triple tail. Very good. The veggies it was served over were out of this world

Bone in pork Chop - I didn’t try this one! But friend loved it.

They have a nice wine list as well. Tons of Spanish wines.

It’s too early for me to go into detail, and LL already has, so I’ll just say that it’s very, very good.
