The vibe

A Barcelona-inspired tapas bar with an expansive patio on M Street that anchors Dupont Circle's happy hour scene. The lively interior channels a genuine Basque pintxo bar energy with jamón hanging from the ceiling and an excellent Spanish wine and sherry list. The patio fills up with the after-work diplomatic and professional crowd every weekday. Daily happy hour including weekends. Patio seating is first-come, first-served. Excellent sangria pitchers for groups.
