This sumptuous tapas bar/vinoteca/gourmet market brings authentic Spanish cuisine to Coral Gables. So whether you are craving a glass of Spanish wine, Tortilla Espanola or Croquetas de Jamon Serrano — you will be sure to fulfill those desires and more.

Before you leave, be sure to stop by the gourmet market and stock up on your favorites.
