Leticia Rivera

service is great! they have great wine , the tapas aren't exactly authentic to spain but they are delicious. I like their version of patatas brava and you have to try the arugula salad !

Christian Alvarez

Literally a hole in the wall place, but when you set foot, it’s so pretty and lively ! I’d recommend getting at least three items in the menu if you intend on sharing with one other person.

Hotel Indigo

The menu changes nightly, but specials like the char-grilled octopus and barbequed local lamb dumpling keep our interest piqued.

Alix Record

There are seriously NO bad answers here! Order wine by the glass and little plates one after another. Eat until you can't anymore!! You won't stop until you are stuffed!

Audrey Fiala

Go here ad get anything! AMAZING!!! Especially the pork cheek and the Jesus Built My Hot Rod cocktail . Hands down the best food and drink I've has in a long time!

Brandon Roberts

Best Spanish tapas I’ve had in the US. Beef skewers , croquettes , carbonara bites, everything was superb.

Nancy Hankins

Every thing is good at Zambras! Wonderful place for a girls night out or a romantic evening .

Devi

My picks: patatas bravas , chickpeas , tofu . Meatballs are also nice, and the candied pecans on the salad are worth it.

Meghan McGee

Great tapas . Had the cheese plate , flank steak , scallops and the gnocchi .

Lindsay Plunkett

Soup , sautéed chickpeas , honey-butter turnips with mash , chicken sausage , wine

Mairead M

The bartender was friendly and helpful, cozy atmosphere ; margaritas , whiskeys , and bourbons are recommended ;)

Tony Miller

Amazing food, must go, try everything!

Wallace Shealy

Try dinner at the bar when busy. We had a blast and food was exceptional!

Randall Skeeters

The pomegranate braised pork spring rolls are incredible

Tilsit MO

Shrimp and gnocchi were great!

Jonathan Ammons

The gnocci is always good and changes often. Always a new flavor, always the ideal first course.

Sandra Diaz

Only order the Chile Flower drink but only if Josh is there. He doesn't work there any more but he is there a lot. Yeah, I don't get it either, but if you're meant to, you will.

Cindia G

We went without reservations and were told that the wait would be 1 1/2 hr for party of two. 20 mins we got sat. Don't let the wait scare you off.

George Smith

Unfortunately, neither the food nor the service were as good as it was during our previous visit. And, a duck leg was substituted with a duck breast "special" for the same price. :-(

Jae eun Shin

Great music with contrabase, you can enjoy half bottle wine .

Krissy R

The pomegranate spring rolls are amazing! We had to get several orders of this dish!

Michael Havens

After 15 minutes of waiting for a bartender to say hello, or anything when it was fairly quiet , gave up and walked out.

Tanya Triber

Always delicious, a favorite date night destination. Don't miss the chick pea dish - delish!

JessC ⚓

Large portions for a tapas place .

Rimple Patel

Pumpkin gnocchi was great as well as the paella

ty hallock

Charreah

Must try trout and goat cheese brownie !

Kirstin

Great tapas and beverages - order the pomegranate braised spring roll and try some cava Read more

Pete Hicks

Internet says they open at 4:30 .. that is not true. Its 5:30 on weekdays.

Richard Cassidy

The best lamb I EVER had.

Heather Foltz

Great red sangria ! Tried the white but it was a little too sweet for me.

Sean R

The Seafood Paella is outstanding!

PFrank

Be careful if more than 5. They add gratuity, even on bottles of wine . That's just wrong.

Regina Driessen

Nice bar tenders

Chris Heilig

The alcohol is fantastic!

Julia H

Paella takes 45 min to cook. Order it early!

Kia S.

The fish tacos are extremely dry. The Sangria is heavy on the watermelon

Mandy Rumfelt

Cheese Plate !!!!!!

Kadi Prescott

Order the pomegranate braised pork spring rolls

Kadi Prescott

Order the blackberry chipotle margarita .

Jade Landis

The wine is pretty good but the service is horrible!! Probably won't go back.

J Crowley

Food was average. You’re paying for the atmosphere here. If you want really good tapas , hit up Cúrate instead. My entire group agreed it was 2x better.

Esthela Villavicencio

Del menú del día... La carne de cerdo les queda increíble!
