Worth it?
Anchovy fans should not skip it. The house specialty is marinated anchovies on toast with toppings that range from spider crab cream (the signature) to blueberry jam and foie gras, all on a family recipe used since 1972. One creator also liked the house white wine and the ham croquettes. It takes cash and card, which helps on a crawl.
Before you go
- Order the anchovy with crema de centollo, the signature.
- Try an unusual topping such as blueberry jam.
- Add the ham croquettes and a glass of house white, as one creator did.

- Signature anchovies with spider crab cream (crema de centollo)
