A gastro-bar-inspired eatery with the heart and soul of an authentic restaurant run by couple Túe García, who left a career in radio for one in the kitchen, and Carolina Jurado, who was a family doctor before switching to front-of-house restaurant management. 12 Tapas has a name that is somewhat deceptive, as it is the owner-chef’s homage to his mother and to the 12 grandchildren that she had when it first opened (Garcia learnt everything from her and his grandmother – both professional cooks). Here, the traditionally based contemporary cuisine is showcased on a concise à la carte plus two extensive tasting menus.
