Through a nondescript storefront with scorpion insignia, grown-up club kids and Kitson-junkies are seduced into this Spanish-revival eatery and intimate bar. The space emulates Barcelona's gothic quarter, with walls aglow from candlelit sconces, oversized mirrors and a long bar attended by polite, well-dressed bartenders. Transitioning between buzzing bar and serious dining room, patrons vie for tabletops in the main bar or more private rear lounge. The Latin-themed menu includes sharable late-night dishes like whitefish ceviche, fancy tamales and slow-cooked meats.
