"Walk down the stairs into whitewashed rooms that resemble a wine cellar. Spanish artwork, wrought iron, and pottery decorate the tiny dining rooms that seem to go on and on."

"If this “immutable” special-occasion “staple” in Mt. Vernon is “favored by people nostalgic for the Nixon administration”, well, longtime faithfuls explain it truly is “as great as it was years ago”."

"One thing is undeniable, Tio's fare is hands down some of the best Spanish victuals anywhere in the city. Just try and look presentable before showing up, okay?"
