Highly recommend trying the Anchovy Plate and Crema Catalana — absolute flavour bombs??Beef carpaccio, Serrano sandwich and ceviche were decent.Lamb meatballs were overcooked, dry and bland. Moroccan chicken was bland too but maybe that’s what it should be like.

Amazing food, good for vegetarians as well. Nice beer nice wine. Amazing service, with server being quite knowledgeable and ready to suggest.In my group I had people who were trying tapas for the first time and they absolutely loved it.A Must try.

We had lunch here and the wines, food and service were all excellent. The menu is mostly gluten free and caters for all allergens well. Definitely recommend

This is fine tapas place for sure...Wish they had more wine list but it is still nice. If you are in Victoria island, and feel like having a Spanish food, sure why not.

We love this restaurant the best for this short trip! All foods were high quality and tasty! Won’t get too much burden since all dishes were served small plate! We love it! We tried various and they all perfectly matched with baguette! Wonderful time!

An absolute delight and hidden gem in Trounce Alley. It's dripping with style yet feels homey.An exceptional wine list showcasing Spanish (and Spanish-style) wines from a number of excellent producers (many of which do sustainable practices), an enticing cocktail list inspired from the stylings of Thom Yorke, knowledgeable staff that care about their food and drink menus, and to cap it all off, delicious plates rife for sharing.My girlfriend and I had an absolute blast there (she could practically see my eyes glowing), and it will be a must-visit every time I visit the island from now on.

Had a good experience here, tapas are good and so are sherry wines.Btw they don’t offer sangria as shown in the google map page

Bodega is always a treat. Fantastic food, delicious drinks and some of the best staff in the city.The heaters on the patio make for a delightful time even on the coldest winter days.Will go back again and again.

Have eaten here about 15 times. Consistently good. Good value for the prices. Staff are very pleasant and good variety. Fun spot. Annoying no reservations but they are always full it seems.

Bodega is mine and my partners favourite spot to go and is often the one we highly recommend to others, however when we went to dinner the other night we felt neglected to say the least. On the plus side, the food and drinks were amazing.I hate leaving a 2 star review because we love the place so much, but we felt that are server was inexperienced and not very personable. We both have been in the industry for at least a decade so we know what good service looks like. The host on the other hand was a highlight, she knew everything that was on the bodega board and quality checked us in efficient timing. As I watched our server move around the room she went to every other table consistently including the needy table table directly beside us, however rarely came to ours. We felt as though we needed to prompt her in service when we wanted more drinks and more food rather than paying attention to the empt plates and glasses on our table. At no point did she quality check our meals. When she did quality check it was on our dessert. After dessert we order a sherry and before we even finished our drink she asked if we wanted our bill rather than asking if there was anything else we needed.Overall we left feeling very underwhelmed. Perhaps more training for new staff members would go along way in service.
