We went last night for my mother in laws birthday and it was amazing. We got there at 5:30 on a Saturday. It was all amazing,... food was delicious, hot, and simply perfect. We were a party of 9 and the service was 100% on point with all our needs andwaiters were very nice and friendly. Also made sure we were good and our drink were filled to the top. I have been here beforeand it never disappoints, food and service is consistent. I recommend Spanish Tavern to all for all occasion or just because.Thank you Spanish Tavern for a amazing night, see you soon!!! P.s. cappuccino's were so good too!!???????? Read more
Great food and great service. I think it easily deserves a 4.5 stars. Removing half if star because bread was somehow "old" or... definitely not on Spanish or Portuguese standards. Sauces were also good but felt a little bit weirdly too similar. On the goodpart, great selection of wine and not overly expensive, expect aroubd 30 to 50 usd a bottle. Monkfish was perfectly cooked andprawns were delicious. Safran rice was good but not that special. I would definitely go back to check other plates. Consideraround 70 to 80 usd per person with drinks and tips included. Read more
The waitstaff was incredibly attentive without being intrusive, the restaurant was elegant yet comfortable, and the food was... absolutely delicious. Predominantly serving dishes with coastal influences, this Spanish roots restaurant is a must. It's a bitupscale and a bit on the higher range of cost but 1000% worth the $. If ever in the area I intend to return for a visit. Oh!And the shuttle from my hotel (airport Marriott) was incredibly convenient and free, clean, and comfortable. Read more

Excellent service, outstanding menu, fresh food in anawesome environment. 90 years young! #buylocal #supportlocal Read more
Excellent service and very good food. Had dinner on Wednesday with a party of 5. Mario Trindade was a wonderful waiter with... lots of stories and great interaction. I thought the food was good but not great across the board. Chorizo was on point, shrimpwas just okay and I didn?t care for the squid tentacles. I had cubed halibut with salmon and shrimp in a kind of curry that wasvery good. The lamb chops were excellent. Read more
Came in from Boston and went there bc it came highly recommended. Had dinner at the bar bc we did not have reservations... Best... move ever! The bartender (Juan???) was super attentive and very informative about the menu!(And clearly he did great work withthe drinks bc I can't recall his name right now!) The meal starts with a serving of soup (delicious btw) and some of the bestdinner rolls I've ever eaten... and that's saying a lot bc I love love love some good bread! The paella was superb! The filetmignon wrapped in bacon...amazing! Don't forget about the Passion Fruit Mojitos! Definitely worth the visit!!! Read more
My first time here and I must say it was a very nice and intimate setting. It was beautiful inside and the staff was very... attentive and kind. The food was tasty and the seafood in the paella was fresh and not tough. The sangria tasted great as well.I would most def return in the future. Read more
