The Scene
This gorgeous Virginia-Highland spot is the perfect place for romantic getaways and small group celebrations. Restored red brick, flickering candlelight, rich colors and large picture windows facing North Highland Avenue attract in-town couples and friends looking for a sophisticated take on Latin flavors. Service is helpful and prompt.

The Food
Most of the tapas plates are a steal. Nicely cured Chilean salmon seviche atop crispy yucca chips disappears quickly. Tender slices of duck make a nice counterpoint to sweet caramelized plantains. For a heartier dish, try the pinchos--delicate slices of hanger steak marinated in a chimichurri sauce, then encrusted with cilantro and served kabob style. Sangria fans should be sure to sample the potent version served here--it's possibly the best in town. Churros (Spanish doughnuts) make a fine dessert, but the real star is the guanabana ice cream topped with a light papaya sauce.
