My favorite restaurant in Boston! It's a little place, with maybe 8 seats at the bar and, say, 15 tables. Their menu changes regularly and their cuisine is Italian small plates.

This is a tapas joint by the same masterminds of Coppa. Their menu includes a mix of Spanish classics and quirky one-offs (the bone marrow dish is out of this world).
