Best Spanish Restaurants in Wallingford

EXCEPTIONAL Paella this evening. The fresh mussels, clams, shrimp, chorizo sausage, chicken, veggies, and authentic Spanish crispy rice were the best ever!! Our server and service were perfect also. Terra Plata's attention to allergies and customer satisfaction are always consistent and greatly appreciated. Beautiful setting to enjoy too.

Food was good but food service was painfully slow, though we understand we came on a busy night. Waiter offered port as an apology but still, for the omakase price, it's disappointing. Also we were asked still or sparking when we sat down and didn't realize until we got the bill we were charged for ordering sparkling! Genuinely nuts, have never had this happen at an upscale restaurant. It's fine if it costs extra, but you got to let customers know first.

We had an amazing experience at Mari Pili and will definitely be back! We enjoyed some delicious cocktails, including the Sangria which was delicious. We then dined on a series of small bites. Since this is a tapas bar, all of the portions are small to medium which makes it easy to try lots of different things. The dishes that stood out the most to me were the croquettes with ham and cheese, the scallops (they were very instagramable, served on cute half shells), and the arroz meloso, though everything was incredible. The staff was super friendly and helpful and the price point was reasonable. We cannot wait to go back!

GREAT wine selection and good place if you love great wine but don't really know how to talk about it (like me). Great entrees and Tapas to go with. We'll be back!
