Excellent Cal-Spanish-Mediterranean cuisine in a hip fun environment with a friendly staff. Locals crowd to this place so if you want to get a table, best to make reservations or arrive early and sit at the bar. Better yet, go for lunch or happy hour. The chef/owners were both "Top Chef" competitors and live in the neighborhood.
