    The four of us thoroughly enjoyed all the tapas we ordered - dates wrapped in bacon, Mixed greens topped with Cabrales blue cheese and honeyed walnuts with a sherry vinaigrette, Queso con Pacanas, Jamón Serrano, Patatas Bravas, Champiñones Rellenos, churros, and Tarta de Chocolate y Caramelo. Service was excellent as well. Ambiance, however, was much to be desired because we were seated next to a very loud woman and child, who played a video on her tablet quite loudly. We should have asked to be moved. Unsure why we were seated near the kitchen door, when there were plenty of tables in quieter areas of the restaurant. We did have a reservation for 6pm. Others that did not have reservations were seated as well.

    Wonderful, creative menu with lots of options and daily specials. The cold mixed seafood and the bacon wrapped dates were my favorite. The mango margarita was beautiful and delicious!

    I had my birthday celebration with a group of friends and I absolutely loved it. From the wonderful birthday message on the table to bringing me a surprise treat and singing me happy birthday, Tapas’ staff me feel special. The food, drinks, and ambience was perfect. My personal favorite was Queso de Cabra and spicy mango margarita. This place is definitely recommended 🫶🏼
