The Pan Con Tomate is the absolute most delicious thing here. Especially when topped with their Jamon Serrano.

Formally, happy hour tapas were available at tables, now happy hour food is only at the bar which fills up early so people wait for bar seats. Happy hour drink prices are available to all until 7PM. The Spanish old fashioned and Mahou draft beer are favorites. Some of our long time favorites still available include tuna tartare, pintxos, and kale caesar. On our first visits we tried several new things and discovered many dishes featured fried potatoes in different formats. We found the grilled octopus too tough, but enjoyed the corn puree base. We'll try paella and other dishes on future visits.

What an amazing place! We loved it. We came here for a weekend brunch…read more The place itself is not very appealing inside. It would be one of the best places in Tampa if they would have a better interior. The place itself is pretty rundown and has some questionable design choices. Service was absolutely amazing, friendly and attentive. We started with bread and some nice tapas: patatas bravas, tomato crostini and a salad. Everything was amazing. And we finished with a paella. We absolutely loved it. All food was absolutely amazing. I just wished that place would be remodeled.

This is our favorite spot before going to TB BUCS games on Sundays! Amazing place! We never wait,…read moreeven when busy, and the prices are so affordable. The food amazing too! We went on a date night and walked in. We did ask nicely to move after we sat, because the man behind us was playing a soccer game loud on his phone. We were accommodated and moved closer to the music man- a nice musician who plays music while we eat. I didn't want to hear a random game but no complaints- on to dinner. Rolando was our server. I ordered empanadas- came hot! She ordered white meat chicken, fried bananas, and I ordered skirt steak, and flan. Amazing! Food was hot. Atmosphere great. Everyone smiling and enjoying a great night. You got to try it!!!

This place was okay. There was a guy that was kind and did a good job. The girl up front spoke so…read morelow we could not hear or understand her. Definitely needed to speak up or louder. We tried a few things: -Churro: okay but definitely stale, wish it had been fresher. This was a bit disappointing. -Chicken and rice: chicken was not very flavorful. Parts were cooked perfect and some of it was a little dry. Definitely not great... The rice was fantastic, perfectly cooked and seasoned -Salmon and fries: this was really good, flavorful and cooked great. We just wish it was a little bigger for the cost. -Vanilla Flan: very good, just a bit small. -Tres Leche: stole the show! Fabulous! I would come back just for this! The texture was perfect and the flavor was flawless! It was sweet but not too sweet. Great dessert! Definitely check your food before leaving though as they did forget part of the meal. Not a big deal as the guy up front was super apologetic and friendly. That dude was great! They need more just like him. Also, not the cleanest, floors needed swept and mopped. (That definitely would have helped the experience) Overall, it was a good/okay experience, just not great.

Service is very friendly, bartender makes great drinks; but its proximity to Raymond James stadium…read moremakes it overcrowded on game or concerts nights. The restaurant & menu are primarily European Spanish, but it's also somewhat Italian. Our favorite appetizer here is the Tabla Española which is a charcuterie board featuring Jamón Ibérico & manchego. It comes with an optional $5 wine or Sangría. Cod croquettes are good, but I wish they would make a Jamón version. There's a good selection of Mediterranean seafood entrees; but for us, the tapas were the stars. It can get quite pricey here; but we would still return again.

I will definitely be going back…read more We had the meatballs as an appetizer. I would highly recommend. They were full of flavor and had a unique twist. The staff were wonderful, very accommodating. We came with our 9 month old and his high chair fit easily between the tables. The atmosphere was warm and inviting but had a modern flare on old architecture. Great spot for a 2nd or 3rd date because it was a little loud. The only thing I think could have been better was the chicken dish. Thought he inside was good enough the outside was very dry. I don't usually get chicken dishes but I've been craving it lately. My husband had the meat rolls and loved them. The sides were all divine as well.

Only complaint is the parking situation! $16 for 2.5 hours of parking is a little insane. The price to park is more expensive than water street and downtown Tampa. Also the rates are not posted when you pull into the garage and you are just charged on the way out. This might turn customers away!

Our reservations…read morehelped but inside was busy so we opted for the patio despite the passing rain (all worked out since it stopped). The service was very attentive, if not somewhat pressed or rushed especially for our anniversary. Food was solid and could be spectacular, if it was more curated and less production style. Patatas bravas - good but our order took so long that we finished dining before it came. Top of the list was Pulpo, Duck Proscuitto and Pork Belly. Next was Gambas and Mushrooms. Chickens Thighs didn't meet the hype or waiter recommendation. One bite was good but otherwise missed the mark as being a bit dry perhaps sitting on the pan to be served. The flan was a nice finish. Drinks were lackluster imho. The bourbon spice rack was flat without character and light. Gin tonic Valencia way too much ice in the wine glass. Strongly suggest boosting their cocktail options. Wine options need more time to sort through. Inside and bar area was lively but a bit too loud for more intimate conversations, so outdoor worked out. I think HHour would be fun. Will try again next time. Cheers
