    Andersonville diners can be difficult to win over, but first-time restaurant owner (and native Spaniard) Francisco Bolanos has steadily accumulated a following in the area. Cozy and casual, this storefront spot puts out hits like patatas bravas, huevos rotos (manchego, jamón serrano or Spanish chorizo), and marisco paella (mussels, clams, calamari, shrimp, green peas).
