Yasaman MahdianAugust 16, 2019One of the best and nicest bar/restaurants I tried in D.C! Implacable service! Amazing host and caring owner! Food is top notch and the vibe is so lively! Loved everything about this place! Superb!
Yong KwonOctober 7, 2014MVPs: hanger steak, pig ears, croquettes, pan con tomate, ..... Too many. Just order a bunch and see what meets your fancy. Btw, Monday night = 50% off wine bottles. 'Nuff said.
Kaz K.July 9, 2015they have happy hour here now from 4p to 6p! $4 selection of tapas and $20 sangria pitchers and others! gets crazy crowded at 6pm, come before and sit near the bar.

Great spot for happy hour. Go early in the week to grab a table outside and try their Moscow mule cocktail or sangria specials for something chill.
CaraNovember 12, 2014Delicious brunch whether you're ordering tapas or brunch classics. The size-to-price ratio on tapas is better than most places, & cocktails are incredible. Brunch service was shaky & a little slow.
Marta D.November 23, 2013Can't complain about a single dish! Loved the hangar steak, the pork/foie Gras sausage, tuna tartare, any mushroom dish! Everyone is very knowledgeable on wine and each one we tried was excellent.
Mikael WagnerFebruary 12, 2014Celebrated a friends birthday and is was packed on a Monday night. Favorite tapas. Octopus, chick pea fries, pork croquets, white sangria, tuna tartare and lamb chops. Delicious. Adrian was our waiter
Asha SJuly 7, 2014Amazing food and very friendly and attentive service. Spinach chickpea dish was a knockout as well as the lamb chops. Oh and the pitcher of sangria is a good deal. Overall A++ experience.
The best place I've eaten in DC. Sat outside by the fire and heat lamps in the middle of winter. Simply amazing.
Lawrence StanleyMarch 10, 2014One of my favs in the city. If you've ever lived in Argentina... You'll feel right at home or on vacation. Wine selection is fantastic and the tapas are exceptional and well priced!
Josh KrakauerDecember 22, 2018The fresh bread is delicious and pairs with every tapas dish. Recommend the eggplant and the churros for dessert.
Kasia KMarch 15, 2016fantastic tapas! Tried tuna steak, hanger steak, croquettes and the shrimps (gambas), everything was above expectations! A pincher of sangria is a must
Offa ChiboubDecember 20, 2014Very nice place to have a pleasant evening !!! The service is really good, warm atmosphere !!! I really loved it :D their paella are amazing !!!! Miam miam miam
Juillet M SandovalJune 12, 2017Everything here is on point, Meat and cheese plate, Albóndigas are top top and the staff excellent, wine list and drink on point. Thank you 🙌🏻- Izaak BeekmanJanuary 25, 2014The duck dishes are epic! Duck breast and duck liver mouse. A little bit cheaper than Estadio, and just as good.
Ebrahim BandookwalaJuly 13, 2017Good Spanish selection ! Jamon and other tapas ! Just wish they had the real stuff (jamon iberico!)
GonzaloJanuary 26, 2017Great environment. The boquerones and the croquetas were great. Stay away from the octopus and the cheese table.
Lana VenturaOctober 20, 2015Cheese, (real) bread, sangria and charcuterie are excellent. Bar is very busy at night, grab a spot at the bar. Ideal for small groups.
Matt WellsAugust 28, 2019Great food and atmosphere. Swordfish portion was small, but other dishes were of a good size. Great selection of wines too. Would recommend.
BrandieNovember 19, 2020You should definitely make a reservation! The tapas is amazing, and they have a great selection of wine! Love the atmosphere.
Io As SoonJuly 18, 2017Very good place for tapas. It s very busy the weekend. Need to book a table. Very crowned and somewhat noisy but cool
Tamer SozerNovember 18, 2014Just arrived D.C,I guess it is one of the best Tapas food in city.Service is great , bread , lots of tapas , hanger steak is delicious...- Virginia RudnickOctober 6, 2013James the waiter rocks he is so friendly and helpful. Order the rockfish, it was amazing. Also the red sangria pitcher is a must. Best new restaurant on 14th st!
Cassie PJuly 26, 2015Don't expect to be full with only 1-2 plates! I had a great experience with the ambiance and food. Food was great and tasted fresh and flavorful!!
Julia IvanApril 8, 2019good tapas, the wine selection is impressive and Friday the bar turnes a little bit into a dancefloor, I loved it!
Stacy Bo BacyOctober 1, 2021Nice wine and tapas. Servers are very helpful with recommendations. Fair warning: you will likely be approached by homeless if you sit outside.
Anthony IaffaldanoApril 22, 2015There has literally not been a dish brought to our table that hasn't been outstanding. Pork shoulder, veggie paella and mixed grill are all standouts.
Morgan ThomasNovember 11, 2014This looks really nice and has a great selection of drinks and wine but the food isn't really that great. Don't worry, there are plenty of great places to eat close by.
Great food. Best tapas in the States so far. Reservations are limited so get there early to snag a spot in the sun.
Delicious mezze style/tapas plates, tasty cocktails, awesome bartenders. Gets quite crowded Fri-Sat- Everything is amazing! Must try the hunger steak and mushroom croquetas
- Arrive by 6p if you don't have reservations. Try the hanger steak and cider glazed pork ribs and a glass or 2 of Priorat.
Sajad AmiriAugust 21, 2019The best par and tapas restaurant in DC. Try hanger steak with truffle sauce plus a mouth shot!
She Loves FoodOctober 13, 2019It’s all about the vibe, great sharing plates and Spanish tapas. Try the blank ink risotto
ZoeJanuary 18, 2018They have a secret all inclusive menu for 5 or more that $35 dollars a person. Come hungry and wearing stretchy pants.
Lauren YSeptember 28, 2014Oxtail churro is like doughnut fries with oxtail goodness. The "coffee" is actually braised cow caramel. Mmmmm
2M StreetAugust 13, 2014Go early Saturday morning for brunch on the patio. It's so peaceful! Have the pancakes they are SO Fluffy!!!
Kat LNovember 17, 2013Definitely get the croquettes, button mushrooms and chorizo with egg ok, skip the empanadas and Brussels sprouts. Try hangar steak next time.
Adrian FarinaJanuary 2, 2015Excellent wine selection. Tapas are good, paella is very good, and service is knowledgeable and very nice.
Chris LinnNovember 12, 2013Friendly service and nice ambiance. Good design that thoughtfully considered noise so you can have a conversation comfortably. Just did drinks and will come back for food.
Rob ZajdelJanuary 15, 2019Fill out the comment card and give to a host or manager. You’ll get a token for a free drink or tapa on your next visit.
Jim McMahonNovember 22, 2013Great food and vibe. Get here by 5:30 for a table because this place gets packed early (for good reason)!!!
Laura SFebruary 24, 2019The chef marked gluten free items on the brunch menu for me! Celiac / gluten intolerance friendly
The steak tapa is amazing. Great bar to grab a glass of wine any day of the week.
Lynn PinaMarch 18, 2014The hangar steak is awesome as are the brava potatoes. The chorizo with figs is too sweet and sticky.
Fill out the comment card for a token good for a drink on your next visit.
Brandon SchuhMarch 31, 2014This place has amazing tapas! Just make sure you have a reservation or you'll be waiting about two hours on most nights.
Jeremy ThomasAugust 22, 2014The patio is hard to claim an the service can be slow at times. But the food is good and the wines are delicious.
Emily EganJanuary 20, 2014Awesome patio. Get a fur blanket in the winter. Desserts are large enough to share with a friend.
