Guys - you've got to try this place. Period!
We enjoyed an evening as guests - not clients - as the waitress ("chica from BCN!), the owner, and his wife, all made the evening amazing. This is what makes a dinner into a memory!
The food... The foooood!! Incredible. Everything is made on the premises - spices, smoker grill, even their own distillery for amazing cocktails. If you are a considerate meat-lover where it's about the flavor & quality - you have to try the beef brisket. Even in the US I didn't enjoy a brisket like this - the owners wife smokes & marinates it for 30 hours, and boy does it burst w flavor! The vegetable arepa, for those more plant based, is a melange of lightly smoked vegetables and a crispy/doughy (yes, at the same time!) homemade arepa... Wow!
Our one disappointment was that we didn't try one of their cocktails - which look like amazing individual creations. However, we did get a small taste as a goodbye gift - a mix of fermented grapefruit, smoked butter, and some sort of alcohol that I don't remember because it was too delicious to keep track of all the details.
Thanks to the entire team for a wonderful evening, and to everyone reading this - please check them out! You'll be amazed and be helping this new, unique spot to get...

Jorge & his wife Monica have created the most Amazing place. Their daughter is named Nara for the white deer of Japan where they spent 5 yrs.
Everything is sourced locally & from very small & distinct regions by Jorge himself. I truly enjoyed the conversations we had while this was my first dining experience since arriving on the island. What a culinary artist!
I was just in my element listening to all of the passion poured in every little detail of the whole OMAKASE curated tasting experience! This is the Alchemy of Food & the expression of Love!
It’s clear to me that Jorge & Monica have a such a distinct, palpable passion for capturing the various essences of nature so as to transform them into a journey & nourishment for the Mind, Body, Spirit, & Soul is a True Alchemist!
Oh & did I mention the ambience!? Again, perfectly paired like the food. 🥰
I can use all the words but this is beyond what can be written — You Must Experience the Magic!
I will definitely be back! In fact, I’m looking forward to trying their coffee during the day at their Bagelhouse...
Read moreWe arrived at 20:30 and the last dish (main course of course cause we couldn't wait for dessert any longer) arrived at 00:45 even though we were the second set of clients in the whole empty restaurant.
We agreed on a premium omakase which is supposed to cost around 250 per person and ended up paying 460 per person without any further or pre-explanation. Note that the ''wagyu'' was not A5 or anything closer. And the meat where nowhere near a star-chef quality product.
Talking to the owner about it, he showed no understanding or questioning himself and laid the faults on us: Late because we had some cigarettes (yes you have a cigarette when you are waiting 35mn between every dishes) without noting that the table next to us never went out of their seats and waited as long as us, he was just very slow, that's the reality. Expensive, because we asked for caviar and the few grams he lais on a piece of bread had to cost so much...
The food wasn't bad but I still feel poisoned by the lack of respect I was given and the experience ended up very bad.
For the sake of your restaurant, ask yourself the right...
