I guess we went in with high expectations of this place, cosnidering that the name and menu seemed exotic and the location being Belltown. Disappointment stepped in at the doorstop. The place is probably 1/4th the size of a an average 7/11. It is very narrow with a bunch of bar stools and some small tables jammed in. If you are hoping for ambience, you will be sorely disappointed - there is none. We could not get to our table without bumping into other folks who were trying to get out of the place. The staff is pretty friendly and that was one plus point - the exotic small plates seemed very appetizing. Couple of them were pretty decent but nothing which will bring me back to the place. If you are vegetarian, make sure you have a booking in another restaurant following this stop. The tapas/small plates are really small - a single square inch of toasted bread with a tiny piece of fish or meat on top. We had at least 4 of these but they did not make a dent in our appetite. A major con is that there were paper napkins trashed, lying all over the floor near the dining tables. The staff did not seem bothered by those and no one was cleaning them up. It was pretty disgusting to see trash below the tables. Overall, I don't recommend this place at all unless you have some time to pass before your reservation in a real restaurant nearby. The only reason I give it 2 stars is because of some originality in their tapas and nothing else. Good luck!
