Located in a strip mall on MacArthur Blvd in Ramsey, Sangria is a rustic Spanish bistro with rough hewn wood/wrought iron decor... to serve fresh food and captures an authentic Spanish ???????? culinary experience which we came tonight for dinner. Reservationwas easy made via Yelp. Upon arrival to a pack establishment, my partner, our friends and I were welcomed by the host and 1/2 ofhusband/wife duo, Carol who shown us to our table. Our server was Ivan who’s knowledgeable about the food and helped us makeour selections. Their tapas menu is not huge but the selection is great. We started out with Gorditos (Dates, smoked bacon,wine goat cheese), Patatas Bravas (Potatoes, smoked paprika, tomato-aioli) and Tabla de Quesos (Cheese Board) consisting ofManchego, Mahón, Wine Goat, apricot pistachio mustarda, Marcona almonds, quince paste. The potatoes came out hot, crispy andtasty. The Gorditos and Cheese Board were envisioned differently from what were presented but still tasted good. As for our mainmeal, we ordered Mariscada (Shrimp, calamari, scallops, mussels, clams, green sauce, saffron rice, vegetables), Pescado del Dia(Fish of the day) Pan seared red snapper filet, mashed potatoes, brussels sprouts and Churrasco (Skirt steak, brussels sprouts,carrots, roasted oregano potatoes, butter garlic sauce). With our selections made, the food was paced out so we were notoverwhelmed, and nothing got cold. The meats were perfectly cooked to our specifications. Unfortunately we had no room fordessert. If you’re looking for a good time, with decent food, and a fun atmosphere one would head on over as it was voted Bestof Bergen 2022 for best tapas which we could recommend. Read more

5 star service, 3.5 star food. Cute place, nice atmosphere. Okay food. Some dishes outshone others. My friends and i came here... after a long hike at Ramapo VC Reservation so we were famished. We were seated as a party of 5 with myself included immediatelywhen they opened. Wonderful staff and hospitality. I found it a bit strange that they poured out our carafe of sangria for usbut quickly understood why when they brought out a second bottle for us to share. It was teeny! Delicious nonetheless. As forthe food, we thoroughly enjoyed the cod fritters and the boys said the Gorditos and empanadas were great. We ordered seconds. Iordered the scallop and avocado and was less than impressed when they came out. It was just a strange presentation and iwasn’t wowed by the taste either. The octopus and lamb meatballs were pretty good and garlic shrimp too. I got a cappuccino atthe end and it was perfect. Overall, it was a pleasant experience but it wasn’t the best Spanish food I’ve ever eaten. Read more

We visited on a week day for dinner around 5:30 pm. We made a reservation, but it wasn’t that busy when we arrived. It got... busy later after 6pm. We shared the Tablón, one paella vegetariana & one caldo gallego. Food was very good and plenty for aparty of four. If you like Spanish food, I recommend it to you! Great place in Northern NJ.

First time here, went for a hike in Ringwood, NJ. Looked this place up on Yelp and it had a good rating! The food was actually... really good, I had the filet mignon tips with the peppers and onions and I think it was saffron rice, very tasty! My friend hadthe seafood paella, can't remember the name but that was very good also. A little on the pricey side $99 for two, just whatyou see in the picture, sangria and the two dishes but it was good! Read more

Sangría Tapas Restaurant 4 of us went to Sangria Tapas Restaurant late this Sunday afternoon, for Tapas and drinks. I like and... agree with what it says on the menus below their name “Modern Spaniard Cuisine”! They have decorated very nicely with anopen airy feel and wall art reminiscent of the old Spain. An appealing bar is to the right as you walk in and the dining areasto the left. The ceilings slant upwards with a large ceiling fan and skylight in the center. It is really a nicely designeddining atmosphere. The “signature” & “special” cocktails we had were full of tropical flavors and generous on thealcohol. (M appreciated compared with most restaurants/ bars. We shared 6 different Tapas and agreed that each was better thanthe other … that is, they were all delicious. Our server, Jackie / Jacqui (spelling?), was very courteous, attentive andpleasant! We will definitely ask for her the next time that we go. Read more

Cute place, plenty seating. Food was just alright, what I didn’t like was the empanadas being crisp on the outside & being... totally raw & doughy on the inside. The sangria was okay, we barely have places that serve good Sangria in this area so I guessthere is barely any competition. The servers were very polite and deserved a good tip! We had a pleasant time at the place. Read more

THE best Tapas Bar in New Jersey Sangria is one of the most charming little finds local to North Jersey. From the food to the... service, I'd give it 10/10 overall without hesitation. The atmosphere is fitting for a semi romantic feel, and the servers allmake you feel welcome. Despite not having a reservation, the hostess was super nice and accommodating. But I 100% recommendmaking reservations first. My table of three ordered the Tostones Sangria, Empanada Carne, Vieras Aguacate, and the CalamariFrito. If you love your seafood or calamari, do not miss this. Their sauce on the side has a nice smoking flavor that meldstogether perfectly with the crunchy yet soft calamari. The Tostones Sangria came with sliced sausage on plantains. It was goodbut not quite me. I should've added pepper or hot sauce. It was missing just a little bit of kick. The Empanada Carne was freshand juicy, arriving with a nice sweet and spicy sauce on the side that highlights the flavor of the meat. Lastly the VierasAguacate was made beautifully, and easily the best cooked scallops I've ever had. The scallops were simply cooked to perfection.The outside is charred lightly to give it a rich flavor. As you bite into it, the scallop melts in your mouth. Layered on top offresh made guacamole, sliced cucumber and tomato, this light dish is a must try. Altogether we'd interacted with at least 6staff members. They were more than adequately staffed. Each time we finished a plate, a server would come and clear our table.As soon as one person finished their water, a server came to fill it up. It's evident that this place wants the best experiencefor customers. Top notch service, amazing food, perfect 10/10 overall score. This is now my new favorite place. I'lldefinitely be back for more.
