Right across from the town square, this storefront restaurant is stylish, relaxing, and serves interesting and delightful food. The specialty is tapas, made for ordering many plates and then sharing them. Selections under $7 include items such as
hongo relleno con chorizo (stuffed portobello mushroom caps with Spanish chorizo and manchego cheese) or cold
gambas embueltas con jamon (shrimp with cilantro sauce wrapped with prosciutto). I learned a lot eating here! For a simpler lunch, the grilled sandwiches and soups are spicy and satisfying. The dining room has tables and a bar decorated with colored stones and bent flatware under a hard, clear surface. Monthly art shows hang on the walls. Don't choose to dine here if you're in a rush, or if you're looking for warm Alaskan hospitality; although I enjoyed the waiter's classy attitude, we didn't become buddies.
