  Loved this place!!! Better value than nearby alternatives for Tapas. Large enough portions to share. I ordered 2, husband ordered 3 and we had plenty *and we really love to eat!*. Wine was good, not great, but that may have been our selection. I would say unless you like churros to forego dessert as it's not worth it, get another drink or plate instead. Every menu item we tasted was amazing and we were satisfying three generations at our table. Wait staff were enjoyable and did a wonderful job during prime dinner hour rush. I found the building hard to spot while driving and gps got us to the block but not the door.

  After visiting Spain tapas has been a new found love. I stumbled upon this place in Downtown Durham. There was a show that night so there were no open tables and all reservations were full. Luckily we were a bit early and was able to sit at the bar since we were only a party of two. Our bartender (who was also our server) was great. He took our drink orders and food order. We ordered several tapas from the menu. My favorite was the bacon wrapped dates, a bit of sweet and savory. My least favorite was the clam and chorizo. I clams because they are refreshing but the chorizo was too greasy for the clams. It wasn't bad but did not please my palette. The food order was placed so that it came out like a course. We started with the bacon wrapped dates, octopus (which was not chewy at all and super delicious), followed by the clams and chorizo, and our paella. The paella was better than I expected not as good as Spain but still pretty delicious.
  
  It is pretty pricey but the atmosphere is nice and it is a good place for girls night or date night.
