If you're after tapas and cocktails, look no further than this new lounge. Called Sobre Mesa, the new arrival is located at 1618 Franklin St.

"Sobre Mesa is an Afro-Latino cocktail lounge featuring lush surroundings, refined cocktails, seasonal tapas and up-tempo music," states the business's Facebook page. 

Its Latin American-style tapas include white cheddar empanadas, truffle patatas and Dungeness crab toast; there's also a lineup of handcrafted tropical cocktails. You can even rent the lounge for private events.

With a four-star rating out of 12 reviews on Yelp so far, the fresh arrival has made a promising start.

Yelper Alexys E. wrote, “Overall, a beautiful location, interior and very inspired drinks and tapas. The execution, even down to the branding, is excellent."

And Brianna R. added, "I mistakenly thought Sobre Mesa was a restaurant, so I was confused by the velvet rope and security who greeted us at the door. It's a lounge, so don't forget your ID. You will be carded at the door."

Intrigued? Stop in to try it for yourself. Sobre Mesa is open from 5 p.m.–midnight on Wednesday and Thursday, 5 p.m.–2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday and 3–10 p.m. on Sunday. (It's closed on Monday and Tuesday.)
