Sangria Tapas Y Bar

Why did it close??? I am soooo disappointed. My fave restaurant in Dallas. Was heading there this morning for Mother’s Day brunch… very bummed :(

So I took two of my co workers out for brunch on 12/​27/​2015 here and they, like myself, loved it! Had a couple of pitchers of the sparkling Sangria for starters and the Vanilla French Toast (excellent) as my main course. The music was on point and the overall atmosphere was very pleasant. They will continue get my business.

I LOVE THIS PLACE.
Eats:
calamari a la plancha (you will never want to eat fried calamari again)
chicken pintxo
grilled beef tenderloin
grilled portabello mushrooms
marinated ground lamb skewer
pan con tomate
patatas bravas
potato and goat cheese croquettes
Spanish meatballs
sparkling sangria (I usually only drink red sangria but I highly recommend this)
tortilla espanola
I love the idea of small plates anywhere, but nowhere is this done better than a Spanish tapas restaurant.

This restaurant used to be one of our favorites! We moved out of state and finally got a chance to go back after two years. It was a big disappointment. While the service was good the food was bland and not what we had experienced before. Also the last time we were in the restaurant there was energy and the restaurant was packed. We were there on a Saturday night and there were empty tables! I wish I had taken the time to read some of the recent Unilocal reviews, we would have gone to our other favorite Tapas restaurant Café Madrid.

I absolutely LOVE this place. Brunch on Saturday & Sunday’s is perfect. They have live music too starting after 1pm. Came here for dinner a few times with girlfriends visiting from out of town and they loved it too!
I come here all the time!

I was hoping a lot better from this place. Every menu item we ordered was a buyout product and tasted terrible. Even the meatballs were bad. Somebody please rescue this place.

Wow what a letdown.
As a chef I came here with a group of chefs from around the country 10 years ago and it was great. I happened to move to Dallas and it’s a block away from my new place.
Tried it tonight and absolutely terrible.
Service was poor and the food was worse.
Flavorless and non inspiring.
It’s a dying concept unless someone with some passion takes over.
Avoid at all costs.

Went here with a group of girlfriends (about 8 of us) on a Saturday brunch. I arrived before everyone to make sure our reservation was there, which it was. I went to the bar for a pre-​brunch drink, and sat there for about 10 minutes with no one acknowledging my presence-​which was kinda awkward considering the place was so small, and there were so many waiters, and NO patrons. The place was not busy at ALL. Like maybe 4 parties there, so there was really no excuse for poor service. This proved to be the theme of the day, with me chasing down our waiter so that we could order food/​get more drinks. I actually had to go to the bar and order more drinks that way because we had been ignored for so long.
Brunch was pretty good; I got the tacos, but I could tell my friends didn’t like the sweeter options (pancakes and french toast). We got pitchers for the table, which after review, weren’t worth it. Don’t get me wrong, they were cheap and the sparking was definitely better tasting and stronger. But for the price, we should have been getting at least 5 glasses per pitcher for it to be cheaper than the individual glasses. We got about 3.5÷4 glasses per pitcher.
Probably won’t return
TLDR; service sucks; sparkling mimosa is better; just get individual $ 2 glasses for brunch instead of pitcher

I went with a group for a Birthday. Overall experience was good, it can be better.
Service was average, they locate us in the same exact entrance. We were 1 feet from the door, I did not like that. We made a reservation, that did not help as you can see.
The Sangria, mehh, it was like Juice.
We ordered some Tapas, for what I remember, the Cheese table was very good, the Patatas Bravas were good also, the Tortilla was amazing. My wife way that the Potato of the Tortilla cannot be boiled, it need to be fried. She likes it but she say it can be better, I don’t mind. We bought some meat on a stick (i think it was lamb) it was Ok, nothing special.
Overall, the tab was less than I expected for the quantity of food of what they serve, I would really like that they placed us in other place other than the entrance and less juice in the sangria.

Amazing food and sangria! Loved the ceviche and fries avocado. They have a great patio and nice indoor dining as well. There is something for everyone on their tapas menu. We tried the red and sparkling sangria. Both very refreshing. Yum!

A girlfriend and I were looking for a fun place for drinks and something light to eat. We split a pitcher of the sparkling sangria which was refreshing.
The goat cheese croquettes were delicious, the pan con tomate was great and the meatballs were good. Not a fan of the tuna. I found it overly peppery. I couldn’t taste anything but pepper and it really ruined it for me.
Over all though the experience was great. They had ½ priced bottles of wine and we may go again just to take advantage of that special.

Great Sunday brunch option! Live music as well! The $ 10 pitchers of mimosas or sangrias is a good deal! Food was pretty tasty as well!

Ok let me start by saying that the place is very cozy not for kids at all I did go with My children and friends from out of town, so here it goes for starters we have a crab stuffed avocado, the lobster soup, figs with nuts and cheese wrap with bacon and some flat bread, the food was tasty and the portions for sharing where good, also there is live music and I like that they also have valet parking (so bring cash for tip) only if you plan to use it, the sangria was good but not as tasty as other places overall a good hangout place with friends for Friday with a layback ambience and not really that expensive.
Note: please ask for specials because they may have some good options that are not in the menu.
Also expect the food to take a little long to be served but worth it.

This is by far one of my favorite tapas restaurants. It’s a tiny place so make sure to make a reservation. Otherwise I suggest being patient and waiting. It’s totally worth it. Their red and white sangria is awesome! I typically drink their red in winter and white in summer. They sell it by the pitcher if you choose to share!
For food their bacon wrapped dates are absolutely amazing! Sweet with a nice meaty flavor. The garlic shrimp is awesome! If you’re on a date beware! They are heavy in garlic flavoring and coated with olive oil but oh so good! The clams and muscles are amazing. They are served in a garlic sauce with chorizo and potato chunks! So much flavor and spice. Honestly I haven’t had anything new here I didn’t like. Prices are reasonable and portions fitting to the price. I’m one who doesn’t like picking just one dish and sticking to it so the idea of tapas is ideal for someone like me who wants lots of options to pick at.
The service here is wonderful. The staff is so friendly and quick. They’re great with recommendations.
This is a great place for a date night or just to hangout with friends. If you can’t find parking they have a valet on the side.

I love sparkling sangria, best in town, and the shishito peppers and manchego croquetas, are my sunday brunch treats. Service and food quality are consistent, but I prefer more simple and healthy food (too much sauces, grease and processed ingredients in most of the plates). Another minus are the waitresses rushing with the check… Happy hours/​brunch prices are fantastic, as well as the front terrace. One of my favorite sangria spots for this summer weekends.

I stumbled across this place on shear luck, and man Oh man was I surprised. Great atmosphere, excellent service, and great food… We had the calamari, fried ravioli, seafood paella, Spanish meatballs, sparkling sangria and coconut mojitos… All fantastic… We’ll definitely be back!

I’ve been here a couple of times and it’s what I remembered of it. Perhaps it’s better during happy hour, but the normal prices for this food and drink aren’t quite worth my while. I’d rather spend money across the street… at any of those places.
The pomegranate sangria is funny. It has nothing to do with pomegranates and tastes like apple juice. $ 6.50 is not worth that glass. The caprihini is strong. Better.
We got clams and mussels dish, shrimp and crab croquettes and some toasted mushroom feta ravioli. All solid, but nothing wow-​ing. The ravioli is fried basically and had a lot of feta inside. The shrimp and crab croquette reminded me of an asian shrimp ball. And the clams and mussels were flavorless (but not fishy which is good). It’s a bit of a joke though bc you get about 10 of a combined amount of clams and mussels… for $ 10. Whereas I could go to the porch and get a pound of awesome mussels for $ 13. In reality, mussels cost $ 2 a pound, so perhaps that is expensive…
It’s not about the money, it’s about the value! I’ll pay a ton for something that’s worth that much, but I’m not out to waste money on something that’s not that good.
Sangria is a Spanish tapas place with a good concept, but I don’t think I’ll be that willing to come back.

This was my first Spanish Tapas restaurant/​bar experience. Being a Latin American foodie I must say that I was more than satisfied! The location is kind of hidden and does have a patio with a view (sadly it was construction filled for now) that will be nice soon.
They have 3 different types of Sangrias (yes we tried all and yes they were all amazing), several types of Mojitos and many other mixed drinks. Matter of fact, their 2 page menu consists of 50% alcohol.
We tried the salad with peaches, pan con tomate with manchego and prosciutto, meatballs, and fried ravioli filled with portobello mushrooms and truffle sauce. Each bite left us wanting for more. I could go on and on but that would bore you. Just go try and it. Best place I have ever eaten, hands down!

Love this place! This was the first Tapas restaurant my wife and I fell in love with in Dallas. We love to shop at the Knox street area stores and come here for lunch.
Last time we sat outside, where they have a really nice covered patio. Got a pitcher of Sangria and ordered up some tapas. Last time, I got the paella, which was awesome.
This place is weird because in addition to the Spanish flavors and the tapas, they also have Greek items, including traditional Greek moussaka and baklava! They also have homemade pasta and Italian items, such as ravioli and tagliolini. I have not had these items. We stick to the tapas, but people around us have gotten this stuff and it looked great! Maybe someday…

Being new to the neighborhood, I stopped into sangria one weekday evening for dinner not really knowing what to expect due to its mixed reviews on here.
What can I say? I was impressed all around!
Even know it was a packed house, we were seated immediately and greeted by a very friendly server. I was catching up with an old friend and not once did our waiter make us feel rushed even though they were so busy.
We went with a few small plates including the ahi tower, the mixed salad and the pan con tomate. Each were equally delicious, leaving us wanting more. We also shared a picture of the sparkling sangria which is a nice light, refreshing and smooth refreshment on these warm summer nights.
I am looking forward to being a regular at sangria and trying more of their delicious tapas!
