This hip Spanish-themed tapas and wine bar brings the flavors of Europe to downtown Charlotte.

In Short
Located in the Interstate Tower, this upscale spot is a big hit with the urban professional set. The elegant decor screams ''metropolitan,'' while the warm wood walls and close tables add an aura of conviviality. Chef Tom Condron specializes in tapas--small appetizer plates that are traditional fare in Spain--with both hot and cold selections on the menu, including empanadilla, jamon serrano and paella. An extensive wine list allows for interesting pairings.
