Simeone shares:
“I was truly impressed by this restaurant. I was in Spain many times for work and fun, and I did not expect to taste so many authentic dishes that I remember fondly from my trips. I was quite surprised at their delicacies, I know, as a Sicilian, how hard it can be to recreate these in the US – and even harder to find the chefs to cook it! The atmosphere in the restaurant is so cozy and I am sure our patrons will love being there with us. It will be lovely getting to know each other better, there, together.”
