Sol y Sombra has been Dundee’s most popular tapas bar since it opened in 2011. Born out of a love for Spanish food and culture, we have created a menu of fresh, authentic and simple tapas. The aim is to recreate the feel of a typical Spanish family meal, so everyone has to share and enjoy the meal as one.

    Lovely Spanish tapas the staff explained the dishes and asked if we had any dietary requirements which they would cater to. 3rd time I have been and my friend from Edinburgh loved it.

    Really great second visit to Sol y Sombra for a birthday lunch. Apart from the fact that the food was delicious, they were very careful about allergies and intolerances and service was wonderful Sangria, patatas bravas, manchego with quince jam and chocolate mousse tart were all stand out
