Outstanding on all levels! The tables are spread out well, the decor warm and welcoming with, I am guessing, artwork from residents. You are greeted and served by Sonny, a true treasure of a soul! The food was fresh and flavorful; we started with the bruschetta and then, for the main courses, the sea bass and the octopus, accompanied by French beans. The bread was also fresh and delicious, with a variety. The wine selection was excellent, and it was from small wineries, so it was not your usual. You must go and experience La Escalera. Thanks for the bottle, it was delicious.
