Tapatinis brings trendy tapas and martinis to the Hill

Equal opportunity prevails: the city's hottest happy hour for "boy's night out" is here. Monday night, men enjoy discounted drink specials. The same applies to ladies on Wednesday nights, which includes free wine. To sum up this newcomer to the scene: Top notch service, A+ quality and great use of space.

Nestled away in Capitol Hill, you'd expect to find a place as hip as this in the Village. Familiar house music in the background, but no DJs - "they take up too much space" according to Tapatini's owner, who would rather use the space to accommodate guests.

The trendy lighting decor and retro use of color contribute to the great vibe you feel the minute you walk in the door. You'll encounter friendly bartenders and a bar that makes you want to mingle. Ordering a martini is an absolute must, as there are over 25 to choose from.

Don't leave without trying these tapas: The fresh calamari with a spicy tomato sauce or the grilled blackened chicken with strawberry and avocado salsa. Try the patatas bravas if you love spicy food, and ask for a side of Mango Martini to ease the spice.

Overall, the feel of this local lounge is very accommodating, familiar and comfortable. If you want the hip and contemporary feel without all the pretentious drama, this is the spot for you. Don't forget to try the hooka, and ask for the fabulous lime flavor! The highlight: $20 open bar ALL DRINKS on Fridays! Check out their website for more happy hour specials.
