Second visit to this relatively authentic Spanish restaurant. We had the seafood paella which was very good as was the gazpacho and the almond tart. The service was good. read more

I came here late on a Friday and it was the only place still alive in downtown Naples. They had live music and the ambiance was inviting and unpretentious. I sat at the bar and the place was full of large parties and families. I think I found my new favorite hole in the wall Latin spot. I ordered the garlic shrimps to start and they were done just the way I remember eating them in Spain. For my entree I had the short ribs and the meat was so tender I wanted to order another one. Next time I'll be back for the paella and jamón ibérico. They had plenty of parking and a surprisingly sharp beer list. The prices were reasonable for downtown Naples. The staff was attentive and worked well together as a team; multiple people checked in on me throughout my visit. I'll be back with a date next time- this is truly a diamond spot to bring a lady. read more

Extremely expensive .!!!!!!!!$$$$$$$ more expensive than service and products received! No respect for the small size of the serves and their high prices . Last visit to this place!!! Do not recommend it !!! read more

Bodega Ole - BodegaOle - Spanish Near Me - Naples, Florida

Today my parents decided to go out to dinner to eat one of their favorite types of foods! Tapas! They've enjoyed dinner here before and today they were celebrating my dads 59th birthday. My parents are both high risk during this pandemic and they've been very cautious on where they go. Today they got turned away at the door. They were asked if they had reservations. They did not. THERE WAS NOT ONE SOUL SEATED IN THE RESTAURANT. & they were told they could eat outside or at the bar. HARD PASS. I would understand needing a reservation if they restaurant actually had guests in the restaurants. DO BETTER read more

I wanted to love this spot and perhaps if we weren't in the middle of a deadly global pandemic I would have. The atmosphere and live music was really cool, but again- we're in the middle of a pandemic- the tables were very close together, multiple staff were not wearing masks, and twice while we were there they sang to customers (pretty certain singing indoors is one of the worst things you can do to spread covid). My gut told me to turn around and leave when we saw the crowded and unmasked indoors, but for some reason I decided to stay (so I know it's my own fault if I catch covid). I'm not from FL and maybe all the restaurants are operating this way, but it just felt so incredibly unsafe. I was hoping the food would be worth it but it was just ok. read more

This little restaurant is a Neighborhood Gem ... tucked away in a side street of charming downtown Naples, Chef Luis brought us to the streets of Madrid with his Spanish Tapas! Gambas al Ajillo, Garbanzo Frito, Chorizo al Vino, Churrasco and Corvina were just a few of the delicious dishes served from his Kitchen - homemade Flan and an incredibly decadent Cafe Bon Bon for dessert ended the evening meal. Sarai and Victor were just two of his staff who brought 'service with a smile' to a whole new level...tell your friends and neighbors that this is the place for a delightful dinner! read more

Service was painfully slow. It ruined the evening with friends. Entrees came out 20 minutes apart. We felt ignored. Owner came over to argue with me on the time it took to get service. D read more

Lots to recommend here. We started out with the red and white sangria. It was made to order and was excellent. Then we had the superb gazpacho. It was a creamy version. I would return for that alone. We sampled tapas alternatives of Spanish meatballs, sautéed mushrooms and were most impressed with the Serrano croquetas. Nice option was a small plate of paella del dia, though we thought it a tad salty. We finished with two desserts, the Panna choca as server Maria said, was amazing. All in all a very strong 4 almost hitting 5 on my scale. This place is a winner. read more

Delicious Spanish food with a touch of Cuba. Everything was so fresh and nicely marinated. The food is inventive and definitely not run of the mill. One of the best dinners I've had in Naples. If you're a foodie, you're going to love this place. PRO's - The sangria is made with fresh fruit and absolutely delicious - several different kinds including watermelon. - Unique and delicious tapas - including fresh sardines and to-die-for croquetas. - meat dishes were tender, generously portioned, and deliciously marinated. - paella - several unique kinds that I can't wait to try. - service was friendly and attentive t CON's - a little hard to kind as it's not on 5th Ave or 3rd St or 41 but still centrally located. read more

Our waitress was amazing but food at the other hand was ok. We been in Spain and love the bread with tomatoes and it was a disappointing but the crema catalana and the bean soup were good read more

Good food, wine & great service at reasonable price for Naples. The Datiles con Tocino were especially good! Paella de Mar was good, but not special. Will go back to try more tapas at Happy Hour 4PM-6PM: $2.00 off Tapas $5.00 off Entrees $2.00 Beer, Wine by the Glass, Sangria 30% off Spanish Wines (bottle) 15% off Rest of the World Wines read more

This place was amazing. It's away from the main hustle of 5th Avenue but you will be impressed with the quality and flavor of every dish they put out. You can definitely tell that everything is made fresh, from their croquetas and the most delicious dates wrapped in bacon and the Paella. We tried both the Paella de Mar y Paella de Tierra. The seafood was fresh and tasty, the rice perfectly made. The Paella de Tierra was delicious, the meat was filet. They have a variety of sangrias and the most delicious desserts. Definitely give it a try, you will not be disappointed. Our server, Eric, was the epitome of what great service should be. Chef Barbosa even came to our table to check on us. read more

Had the most magical experience last evening to celebrate my birthday. Walked into our reservation to the sounds of a band playing Spanish guitar music. Absolutely wonderful to transport you to Catalan! They have an excellent wine selection of Spanish and South American wines-we went with a Tempranillo. We had the wrapped dates, blood sausage and charred octopus to start and each was equally delicious in its own right. I was surprised that the blood sausage was my favorite-I am normally partial to grilled octopus. We split the seafood paella (crispy style/traditional) and it was fantastic. Flan and champagne for desert. Definitely a do/again -will be tough to decide if we try something new or get the same exact things! read more

My husband and I drove from Fort Lauderdale to Naples to eat at Bodega Ole. I must say, this place is a gem! From the time we were warmly greeted to when we left, the experience and the food were exquisite. The ambiance was chic and inviting. We ordered a few appetizers; the gazpacho and croquetas were delicious! My favorite was the wine-reduced figs with goat cheese (Drunken Figs); now, that is a sexy appetizer! AMAZING!!! I wanted to order more of those but needed to leave room for the delectable seafood paella and the silkiest, most decadent flan I've ever had! Thank you, John, Sophie, and Linda, for a beautiful evening and an extraordinary culinary experience! read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I could not believe my experience from the other night. I was just waiting at the bar for my friend that was meeting me there and the service was terrible. I saw the owner too, however; he didn't approach me, but I saw him talk to everyone else. After a while of watching the owner go around to everyone else but me I felt unwelcomed and neglected, so I left. I honestly heard a lot of good things about this place and was going to bring a lot of people here, but after this, I will let everyone know how shitty this place and the owner is. I also felt something run across my feet and was unsure of what it was. read more

Great meal, great experience except at the conclusion when realized that I got charged for a small plate I didn't order. The small plate was brought to the table initially and when I explained it wasn't ordered, I only ordered two small plates not three, it was offered to me anyway "on the house". Upon reviewing the receipt emailed to me when I returned home, I noticed I was charged to the small plate nevertheless. Why? Very disappointing after an initially great experience. read more

We tried this place while visiting Naples because our last name is Barbosa and there were some good articles about the place in the news. We are so glad we went. The food is delicious and we tried foods we've never had before. The bacon-wrapped dates were yummy and the chorizo in a wine sauce were the favorites from the tapas choices. My husband had a skirt steak with chimichurri sauce and really enjoyed it. Sarai was our server and she was very helpful and pleasant. She gave us some great information about the menu in response to our many questions. read more

Restaurant has a great vibe. The staff was very friendly. Food and drinks were excellent. The live music made for a very enjoyable evening. This place is a gem and I highly recommended going here. read more

This was our second time dining here. We ordered all tapas: mushrooms, anchovies, potatoes, meatballs, peppers, shrimp, & red wine sausages. I also ordered a delicious white wine sangria. Very authentic & delicious. I love their new expanded indoor dining space. What's nice is their patio isn't on a busy street so you don't have loud cars. They also frequently have live music so we got to enjoy that as we sat on the patio. There's a Vespa dealership & an art gallery nearby so it's a fun vibe in this area. read more

Nothing bad to say, just an extraordinary experience both service and food. Our server was on point and even the owner came outside for feedback. I will be back! read more

My husband and I were looking for a good seafood place when we came across Bodega Ole. I yelped it, the reviews were amazing. I was interested on the snapper but we decided to order seafood paella. My husband loves paella but I am not too fun of paella; but let me tell you the paella was out of this world. read more

I have been before and enjoyed Bodega ole. Last night not so much. We had reservations or we thought we did. We made the reservation online. Arrived on time and they admitted having difficulty with the online reservations and could not accommodate us for at least. 30 minutes. Asked us to have a drink at the bar and they would try to get us a table. Happy to see business doing well but this was just not acceptable. It is Friday in Naples and we have no other dinner reservation as a back up. Disappointed in response to our dilemma and left. read more

Let me just start by saying that I usually don't like writing bad reviews. But in this case it is highly recommended on my behalf and in my words that I write a bad review because this is the worst experience I've ever had. I placed my order at 4:30 p.m. did not receive it until 6:30 p.m. the time I had to leave to go to work. When I had placed my order I ordered garlic chicken and it had given me two options for sides. My first option I wanted sauteed carrots which I got. My second option was white rice and I never received it. I had also ordered a side of asparagus which I got. And garlic shrimp which I got as well. Now I do not think that letting an order go the way it did missing items is not worth $44. when my order was running extremely late not just by a couple of minutes but over an hour I called customer service through Yelp to cancel my order. they called the restaurant and the restaurant denied on canceling the order because it was ready. I understand times are hard but having to wait all the way till 6:30 p.m. is not acceptable. $44 for a piece of chicken two types of vegetables and the smallest tapas I have ever seen is not worth it. read more

Wonderful, delightful restaurant, I highly recommend. My husband and I shared the seafood paella which was delicious and cooked perfectly! Our server, Ashley, was attentive, professional and very personal. We will be back. read more

Best octopus and osso buco and excellent wine selection. My friend had the sangria flight and loved it. Great ambiance and music. Thanks!

This restaurant is hard to find. Well worth it. Classic Spanish food. Great tapas.

This was wonderful. Great tapas from bacon wrapped dates to Spanish style sliders. Friendly service and nice bar. 4th Ave north in Naples Fla. read more

Had dinner there tonight. The tapas were exceptional and the service was wonderful and friendly. I would highly recommend for anyone who enjoys Spanish cuisine. It did not disappoint. read more

Food is good. Service breaks the deal. Flustered. Salad with incorrect dressings. Medium chops served rare and with wrong course. Wine list not updated. There are too many excellent restaurants in Naples to compete. read more

Well prepared and authentic food in a humble setting. Everything we had from seafood, tapas, beef, and paella was excellent! Friendly and caring service. read more

Classic Cuban catered our wedding reception and did a phenomenal job! My entire Cuban family could not stop raving about the food. They let us create our own menu full of traditional Cuban dishes and they even threw in a few extras for us. They were very accommodating - no request was too big or too small. All of the employees were friendly and professional. 5+ stars! read more

We had a very delicious dinner at Barbosa kitchen. We sat at the bar and had the roasted mushrooms. The grilled octopus was crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. A very generous piece enough for two to share. The star of the evening was the seafood stew. The flavors were outstanding. I had to ask for more bread to wipe up every last drop of sauce. The food at Barbosa is five stars plus. However, The restaurant needs a host/bus person. The 2 person wait staff and bar tender cannot seat people, clear and set tables, and bring water and bread. Wait staff need to be able to spend time relating the specials, asking if you would like another drink or dessert. But We will be back because the food is so great. read more

This place opened about a month ago. I came across on a spontaneous road trip with my husband and we had a great experience. The staff is super friendly. Our waitress Mia was amazing, she recommended us to try the datiles with bacon and the croquettes.... everything tasted yummie! Nice place for a quick stop or for a cute date! read more
