    Everything about our experience at La Tremenda in Doral was absolutely amazing, starting with the pleasant surprise of discovering a fine dining experience so close to home at a great value. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. Jeniree welcomed us warmly and quickly seated us, setting the tone for a wonderful evening. We were delighted to learn that their weekday happy hour runs from 4-8 pm, featuring two-for-one drinks along with a selection of delicious appetizers. We enjoyed four appetizers: calamari, fried pork belly, Cantabrian anchovies, and Pan Tumaca -- each beautifully prepared and full of flavor. For our main courses, we ordered the Arroz Negro and the Asopao de Mariscos. The presentation was lovely, and both dishes were incredibly satisfying and delightful to our taste buds. The ambiance was magnificent, with soft lighting that created an elegant atmosphere, complemented by a pleasant lounge music playlist that allowed us to enjoy the music while still easily conversing. We truly enjoyed every moment of our dining experience and can't wait to return.

    We went for a late lunch and the restaurant was empty but we decided to go anyway. The place was very clean and very nicely decorated! The lady who attended us was very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. We order 2 cheeseburgers that were delicious! The French fries were so crispy and skinny and tasty! Our drinks were lemonades, I had the strawberry and my hubby had the regular lemonade. They were okay nothing great. She invited us back to come on the weekends when the have a Flamenco dancer. Loved the music playing in the background too! We will be coming back!

    10/10 no notes! Randomly found this spot on Yelp and now it's my new hyperfixation. Loved everything - from the food, to the service, to the ambiance. Everything felt so warm and comforting. They have 2 for 1 drink specials and some select bites during HH. Easy parking in the front. What more can you ask for! I can't single out one favorite dish; they all were really good. But the octopus salad and the croqueta have to be mentioned! The amount of octopus slices were generous and the croqueta was bursting with creaminess from the goat cheese. I'm thinking of the next visit already as I'm typing this...

    Branzino

    My mom had been wanted to try this restaurant for some time so we decided to go for dinner on a Wednesday night. The restaurant is not as big as I imagined considering they have live music some nights. It's very cozy and comfortable. The service was excellent! The staff were very friendly, helpful and professional. They have a great menu with good prices. Right now they're offering 2 Miami Spice dinner menus which are great! I chose the $45 and got calamari, Branzino and crema catalana. The fish was very good, well cooked with crispy skin and in a delicious sauce. I did not like the breading on the calamari and it tasted like overcooked oil. The dessert was also disappointing. My mom loved her seafood paella and we also had some Tempranillo wine that was very good!

    Crema catalana and Tiramisu
    Michelle L.

    Was in the Doral area and we were looking for a Spanish food restaurant I remembered La Tremenda! I had dined there previously with some fellow Yelp elites and we loved it. Took advantage of their Miami spice menu that included a beer or glass of Prosecco! The octopus salad appetizer was stellar and flavorful and so was the paella main course. The tortilla esoańola was a bit on the runny side which we later found out we could order wet or dry traditional. I tend to like it better dry but good to know there are options. And the branzino fish was really good too. But the dish came alone no sides. You could order a side of something if you wanted for like a $4 add on not bad. For dessert they were out of my fave there which is the basque cheesecake. Bummer. But the crema catalana and tiramisu jar were great. Be sure to check out there performance nights Fridays and Saturdays. Love taking pics in their fun bathroom hall lights area. Good times!

    It's a very nice restaurant inside. It has a cozy atmosphere and actually it was bigger than what I was expecting. We went on a Friday night expecting to have some kind of show. But was let down when they say there wasn't any show that day. The food was really good. We started with some calamari and they were fresh and tasty. My son ordered a hamburger and was surprised how good it was. My husband ordered a fabada and he loved it. My meat with risotto was on point. To finish the night we had the cheesecake and it was good, but could have been more smooth. Overall it was a good experience and it would have been nice to have the entertainment that was advertised for Friday. Maybe it's better to call before going to make sure they have the entertainment.

    Paella marinera

    Place is very very nice, you don't expect it from the outside, the happy hour is a phenomenal deal and the bread with tomato and iberico is so light and delicious, the patatas bravas is the closest i have tasted to madrid and they were great. The chicharon was crispy and perfect. Would 1000% come again.

    Came here for the Miami Spice menu. Ordered the lamb risotto which was decent. My husband had the picanha which is always a bit tough. Service was good. But also it was a Tuesday night and there was only 1 other table besides us. I came for the Miami spice signature chef experience but we weren't offered the chefs story time or the cooking experience. Overall we would rate this spot at solid 6/10

    Gazpacho
    Erbira B.

    This quaint eatery is definitely a must! Great decor with high ceilings and a DJ was playing cool music. We ordered the gazpacho, octopus and beef carpaccio as appetizers. They were all delicious although the carpaccio was a bit salty. For the entrees we ordered the paella (of course!), the lobster rice and the beef tenderloin. Again, everything was tasty, however, the paella was a bit dry for me. We ended with the Basque cheesecake for dessert (delectable) and coffee. The service was very good (although our server didn't speak English!).

    Ordered 6 happy hour Tapas dishes and several regular Tapas. Everything was great. WOW can't wait to return. The chicharones were incredible. Beef carpaccio was awesome. All great!

    Basket cheese cake
    Lilly W.

    This is definitely a hidden gem in a very friendly neighborhood. Mains easy for parking( free) and good for all age group. We have been here many times but have never tried the weekend ( Saturday and Sunday) brunch. Again, never got disappointed for the quality of dishes, services, and ambiance. I am happy they have seafood paella( individual/single) ) on the brunch menu and other authentic Spanish influenced dishes. All the brunch dishes ( starters and mains) are normal size but not half from the regular menu. With a complimentary glass of bubble are only $ 28. What a good value. We order the basket cheese cake in the end as usual. This is the best cheese cake in town and good for 2 ppl. The server Mr. Felipe, he's great... everything in on point as well as the main host. Highly recommend to make the reservation and come early ( 12:00pm ). It fill up very quick.

    Sopado de Mariscos small portions

    The food is not that great , doesn't taste like Spanish food. The paella we order was full of SALT and other plates were too salty I believe if you like salt you can add by yourself at the table. The service was excellent very fast and very friendly ,recommend . The drinks are very good we order sangria. Recommend The ambience I don't know ,because the place was empty at 8.pm on Wednesday. Only two women seating at the bar . On the website recommend reservation with the restaurant empty Probably on the weekends is full that why you need a reservation We will try on the weekends only to drinks ( no to eat) to see the live music how they're

First things first: if you want their Spanish tortilla with chorizo, you have to order it ahead of time. Same-day they usually only have the regular tortilla available, so plan ahead -- and trust me, it's worth it. Thick, soft, perfectly layered potatoes and egg with that extra smoky chorizo flavor that takes it to another level. A true comfort dish done right. Their tortilla is one of their staples for a reason. We also ordered a variety of croquetas: jamón serrano, queso manchego, camarones, and bacalao. Honestly, all of them were good (and I mean all), but the bacalao croquetas? Wow. Next level. Super creamy inside, crispy outside, packed with flavor -- easily my favorite of the table. And because it was Mother's Day, dessert was mandatory. Everyone ordered something different: flan with almond ice cream, crema catalana, Basque-style cheesecake, and I went for the Tarta San Marcos. I'm not Spanish, so it was my first time trying it, and I was pleasantly surprised. It's made with layers of sponge cake, cream, chocolate truffle -- but somehow it doesn't feel too heavy. It paired perfectly with a cafecito and was the ideal ending to the meal. The place is small, cozy, and very authentic. I hadn't been in a while, and you can tell they've organized the space better -- the wine boxes and market area feel cleaner and more intentional, and there's a little more room to breathe. Service was super nice and welcoming. Overall, La Vasca is one of those hidden gems where the food feels as authentic as it gets.
