Misha Shahbandi Spanish Tapas Meets Latin Comfort Food
The menu uniquely pairs authentic Spanish tapas like croquetas and paella with Mexican and Latin favorites like tacos and house nachos.

Practical advice on drink ordering, outdoor seating, and set menus for your visit
Order Sangria by the Jug for Best Value
If you are dining with a group or planning on multiple drinks, ordering sangria by the jug offers the best value for sharing across the table.
Choose Outdoor Seating for Breezes and Pets
The covered outdoor patio allows you to bring your dog along and offers a cooler alfresco breeze if the indoor dining room feels warm.

If dining vegetarian, ask about the Taste of Spain banquet menu, as the kitchen can adapt the structured course selection to suit dietary requirements.
