Top Tickets: February 20-26
This week, view posters made to protest the Vietnam War, enjoy the photographs of a local legend, laugh along to a madcap onstage adventure, and more.
Dish after delicious dish complement a California and international wine list at this decidedly grown-up Livermore hangout. A convivial spirit reigns within the intimate lounge, filled with long communal tables, and a cozy—often crowded—backyard patio pulses with live music. The spicy atmosphere, along with the selection of seasonal Latin tapas, calls for crisp and lush wines. (Find a favorite among the flights of worldly whites and reds.) Plump paellas, chorizo-flecked quesadillas, bacon-wrapped dates, and deadly sweet potato fries are rich and satiating. Most glasses and small plates run in the $10 range, but you can blow a paycheck if you start in on Double Barrel’s Cellar Reserve wine list. Lunch Sat.–Sun., dinner Tues.–Sat.
