Best Spanish Restaurants in Shelton

Our first visit to Tablao was a wonderful experience. The reserved table fulfilled my teservation requests: away from bar, kitchen or service station. The room is nicely arranged in rows of small tables, set apart a reasonable and comfortable distance. Our wait staff varied as the evening evilved, at one point including the owner in serving our meal. Our selections, from an extensive listing of 25-30 tapas, was served in pairs, so as not to overwhelm either our tastes nor the small square table. There were breaks, respites, as we finished the two before the next two were delivered. We had no influence about which were served or in what order. Each was interesting, tasteful, sizeable and seemingly authentic- showing care in the preparation and presentation. We added cappacino, coffee and a split dessert, the last being the low note of the entire fare- a lemon tart. We spent an enjoyable two+ hours in leisurely dining and, though not inexpensive, was worth the pricing ( tapas averaged @ $16) We will return, especially to partake of their 3-6 pm happy hour with occasional 1/2 priced bottled wines.

What a wonderful meal! The food was stunning visually and delicious. The service was excellent and the drinks were great! I recommend having a reservation, we had dinner on a Tuesday evening and it was packed!

All 3 of us really enjoyed our entrees- red snapper, chicken, salmon all expertly prepared with Latin flair. Empanada appetizer was outstanding, sangria was fruity and flavorful, mojitos as well. Will be back to try other dishes on varied menu.

We had a great experience at this restaurant. I celebrated my husband’s 50th birthday with twenty people. Food was good, service was great. I will be celebrating many more events here in future .

Wonderful place with great , carring staff. Food is fresh and delish.
