121 Tapas on the Water - Tapas Bars Near Me - Fort Pierce, Florida

I'm happy to see what's happening in Ft Pierce. Ft Pierce to me, during college, was a place to get onto the turnpike from 95 so to save a few bucks (poor college student!). Fast forward many years I'm sitting in downtown Ft Pierce having eclectic tapas. Love it. My wife and I love Tapas. Having gone to Spain right before Covid, we fell in love w them even more. Nelson was our host/waiter. He certainly took care of us. He is a self acclaimed foodie like us. We had two glasses of wine. It's a $20 bottle of wine at $12 a glass. Somewhat normal. I will be picky here as they weren't served in red wine glasses and it was somewhat warm. Small pour too. We had 3 dishes 1. Potatoes Bravas. I found an amazing one in Spain....this was one of the best I've had since that magical dish in Spain. 2. Forget the official name but there were 4 balls consisting of goat cheese, dates, and chorizo over arugula. Taste explosion. Try them! 3. We ordered the meatballs (name on board was was better descriptive) from the local butcher Adam. These took a long time to come out (our dish and others). For $24, and 3 meatballs, we found them small and a bit salty. Acoustic guitar playing all sorts of music outside (and the restaurant doors were open). So this was really nice. I think there could be a bit more 'polish' in the experience as compared to what we have experienced in places like this in Broward. Overall we had a great time and would come again read more

We stopped here as part of a food tour. The restaurant is really close to the water with pretty views for the outside seating. Inside is small and beautifully decorated. The owner was delightful and has a real passion for food. The white sangria was amazing!! We started with a watermelon salad, a meatball and crusty bread, date with chorizo and goat cheese and cheesecake and rum cake. Everything was delicious!!! read more

If you're looking for a great night out and looking for something a cut above the usual downtown Fort Pierce scene, step up your game and come to 121. They have a great selection of tapas (small plates) that give you the opportunity to try some delectable flavors. We shared an entree after enjoying the taste tantalizing goat cheese and chorizo stuffed medjool dates. The meats, seafood and vegetables are locally sourced. The Aperol Spritz was on point and they offer a lovely house made sangria. Nice view of the water in a quiet, tastefully appointed small venue. read more

I wish we'd taken pictures! This place is beautiful. From the moment we walked in the door to when we walked out, every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. We sat at the bar where we had some drinks and enjoyed a delicious, wonderfully prepared dinner. The bartender was highly attentive without hovering over us. This is one of those smaller venues, and I hope they grow, but never lose their approach. Afterwards, take a nice walk along the Mariana. read more

Simply put... Amazing!! The wine selection and tapas were incredible! This is a must try. The Charcuterie board may be the best I've ever had! The staff went above and beyond! We will be back! read more

121 Tapas on the Water - Tapas Bars Near Me - Fort Pierce, Florida

Unique (atypical) takes on tapas from the very passionate Sullivan University Culinary School (Louisville) graduate, Chef Jiggs, who has been helming the 12-year-old bistro serving pan-European style and locally sourced small plates for the last five months. One dish had to be remade because the line cook instead of the exec chef sent it out (gambas), and it didn't represent what he wanted. Otherwise, the food was excellent. Highly recommended intimate restaurant. read more

121 Tapas hits it out of the park! Chef Angela brings a creative flair to the amazing variety of dishes offered. WaIted till our third time to review as the first two rocked but tonight was definitely the charm The Burrata with Fig Jam was so delicious I saved a bite with my crostini to enjoy as my last bite. The Pulpo (Octopus) was tender, sweet and perfectly cooked. It was the best encore... maybe Burrata should be dessert? Let's talk Meatballs - omg - tonight's special with the house made sauce plus Manchego cheese. Home run! Our last delicious pleasure was another special.... Fresh Branzino Pan Seared with a fresh Fennel Mediterranean Salad. Just nothing short of orgasmic with the blend of flavors in that profile. Live music and dancing.... Excellent service... exquisite dinner. Definitely go and visit for an amazing evening in the Fort! Dessert - Toasted Marshmallow was as close to a real one with frozen creamy goodness! Run - don't walk and they also take reservations! read more

Had dinner last night with four other ladies. Loved it from the first champagne cocktail until the warm dark chocolate brownie with ice cream for dessert. Christina greeted us and explained all about small plates and sharing. Christina was so knowledgeable about all of the menu items and it made me want to order it all. We had the watermelon salad, carrot hummus, seasoned corn, spicy shrimp, stuffed dates, roasted garlic with fig which was all served with this wonderful crusty bread. ALL OF IT WAS FANTASTIC! Christina was great and so enthusiastic about all of the food and patiently answered all of our questions. The singer/guitar player complimented the atmosphere with easy listening songs. We hope to return to 121 Tapas very soon . Wonderful, wonderful experience. STEPHANIE HOLMES read more

Foodies will appreciate this food experience. read more

Last night was the first my wife and I have been to 121 Tapas with the new chef. We couldn't be more pleased. We tried four different small plates and they were all exceptional. We especially enjoyed the goat cheese and walnut crostini (enough to share and a steal for $9). Our server (Ann) was attentive and helpful and the chef (Jigs) is a delight. He is unassuming yet very enthusiastic about his craft. He takes pride in his menu and it shows. A singer / guitar player (Island Bob) was performing classic rock ballads on the patio which perfected the dining experience. We are looking forward to returning already! read more

Very expensive, but wonderful food and a lovely atmosphere. We are outside and we're there on a Friday night when the restaurant provided a gentleman playing live music. We had roasted vegetables, a bruschetta and manchego cheese dish, and the best: a Buffalo mozzarella with fig tapenade. A Nice glass of wine to top it all off, and it was a lovely evening. read more

This place is so cute! It's right on the water and the ambiance was perfect. We came for my boyfriends birthday and the dinner did not disappoint. Aside from blowing my mind with chorizo stuffed dates, the steak and meatballs were amazing! The individual strawberry cheesecake was freshly made, and you could just tell. Add in live music with live flamenco dancing and We were very impressed! read more

1st visit on 8-21-22 was with my mom, BF, and her mom for lunch. We shared 5 plates together. Burrata W/ Black Fig Compote, (2) Filet & Potato Pintxos, and (2) Shrimp dishes. The food was so freakin' awesome (Food-Network Worthy) and we were graciously greeted by the Chef; she really makes some killer dishes and takes pride in her cooking. 2nd visit on 10-17-22, I enjoyed a day date with my husband. We shared 4 plates together. Patatas Bravas (spicy potatoes), Ham Croquets (that was a special that day), Filet & Potato Pintxos (because it was outstanding the 1st time I tried it), and the Cheshire Pork dish which was garlicky and so good! He raved over all the food and loved it as much as I did. We will be back, he said! I wish I took pictures, but both times I went, I couldn't wait to dig in and try everything! They will be changing the menu in the next 2-3 weeks, so get in there and try this menu before it's gone. read more

There were four of us that went for dinner.... Two of the same meals came out together, the 3rd came out 15 minutes later and the 4th meal NEVER came out. I spoke to the manager and she informed me the meals were meant to be shared....since when?? The service has a lot to be desired and other than saying she was sorry she offered nothing to say give us another chance to make things right as to not loose a customer read more

I'm sorry to see that this restaurant has closed the food in the ambiance was great. I feel that this is Fort Pierce's loss. The chef and the owner's vision for this type of restaurant is going to be lost the cuisine was next level I'm sorry they weren't that many people that were here to support it again it will be a great loss. But if it was open I would highly recommend it. read more

Beautiful location right off of the water.Each dish we had was flavorful and the staff was very attentive. We visited on a Saturday, so we also had the pleasure of live music. Couldn't ask for anything more. read more

121 Tapas on the Water - Branzino - Tapas Bars Near Me - Fort Pierce, Florida

Amazing tapas & great service! Wonderful experience. I believe they also have musicians performing on certain days. Highly recommend.

We ate there last week. The food is good. The service is slow and everything is made to order. My Cesar salad was good. My husband said the house salad was good as well. There were sliver of apples in his salad. We shared a flatbread and cheese and fruit platter. Both delicious. This restaurant needs to be taken in at a slow pace it is not a place to eat and run. Enjoy it read more

Great food, great service. We have become regulars. Love this place and staff Jiggs, Christine and Ann read more

121 Tapas on the Water - Tapas Bars Near Me - Fort Pierce, Florida

I so wanted to love this place considering its local vibe, waterfront location, and live music. But sadly, everything was fresh out of the box if you know what mean. We ordered a variety of tapas offerings - everything had the same flavorless taste and somewhat stale texture. Extra star given for friendly and attentive waitstaff. Would recommend though for a drinks only experience. read more

Nice little spot by the water. I was extremely impressed with the service. Everyone was so attentive. There is a nice wine and champagne menu but not very many options if you follow a Vegan diet. The only thing on there for me was the beet salad and I had to hold the cheese. That being said the salad was out of this world. I'm not sure how they marinate it but the flavor on the beets blew me away. The chef came out and asked us how everything was. I thought that was thoughtful. Because there is not one item on the menu that is Vegan without being changed I almost gave a rating of 3 stars. I decided to give 4 stars because the service was the best I have had in a long time. Please get something on the menu that is plant based. I know your staff is talented enough to do so. read more

Super nice bartender....he was new but I cannot recall his name. He reminded me of David Bowie (no, he wasn't dressed as Ziggy Stardust but it would have been awesome if he was). We should up late Sunday morning and we were the only people in there. A bit pricey but the mac and cheese and flatbreads were good. As mentioned, wines are pedestrian. The atmosphere was chill with a Barry Manilow vibe. While it was good, I don't feel terribly compelled to come back. read more

Perfect! I don't normally write reviews but I can tell you this place certainly deserves the praise. It will exceed your expectation at every turn from the ambiance to the staff to the food and wine! The staff is friendly and give their customers due attention. The chef and the food - what can I say so spectacular that we not only ate lunch there, we went back for dinner the same day. Everything is prepared with love and consideration to ensure the customers savors every bite! Will definitely return! read more

I really really want this place to succeed. Server /bartender Heather was excellent. For what it is , food is overpriced. Had to send something back. New management. I truly believe they will get better and I will be back to give it another try. They just have to up their game a bit. If they listen , I'm sure they will. Very nice wine list. Nice ambience on the water. read more
