In the basement of a cool old brick building, a tapas joint. Upscale, subtle lighting, almost dark says Rob.
I was the only one that actually had tapas, Pete and Rob ordered more full meals. They had a large beer selection, and Rob chose a 14.5% Icarus "Kalashnikov". Dark, warm, and boozy. Rob had to have Pete drink some of it so he wouldn't get drunk :)
Jenn will make fun of me, but I order a fig cosmopolitan, and I loved it.
For food I had a plate of battered and fried olives. Sounded weird to me, and that is why I ordered it. I liked it, not super olivy, and it came with some unidentifiable dipping sauce that was tasty. (some research tells me the sauce was Romesco) Then I had Chorizo and Shrimp in Garlic Chili oil sauce. Yum. Great fried plantains (very thinly pressed) came with it.
Pete had a fantastic cheese steak. He loved it. Lots of meat, cherry peppers, onions and cheddar. His side caesar salad was also great.
Rob had the "Chef's Choice" pizza, which turned out to be red onion, ham, and bbq sauce. He could have done without the bbq, but he liked it, and didn't leave any behind.
Overall very good. Seems like it would be a good date night place.
