The name suggests Spanish influence, but owner Cyrille is French and the colourful restaurant is in Madagascar, so it’s hardly surprising the menu is a mix of all three. We loved the tapas à la Malagasy and the amazing rum cocktails. It has a great atmosphere and is definitely worth going all the way to the end of Rue Colbert.
