We had dinner here with friends and all I can say is it was incredible. We started with cocktails and I had the Black Dahlia which was onolicious and strong! My wife had the guavalajara and our friend had the Spanish 77. The cocktails were nice and strong the way we like um! We then all shared pan con tomate, potato croquettes then the octopus ceviche and ended with the ribeye steak, all of which were delicious. Dessert was cheesecake and flourless chocolate cake which broke da mouth! I gotta mention the atmosphere was chill and cozy as it's in a house converted into a tapas bar. Also gotta mention the service was great and our server Makayla was awesome! She was friendly and attentive! We are definately coming back and you guys should try them too! Aloha! read more

Had an amazing experience at Dahlia's this evening. The photos speak for themselves here, but it's worth mentioning how amazingly crafted each dish we had was. The service was wonderful and the vibes were perfect. After visiting Barcelona, I have been on the hunt for a tapas spot that feels authentic and hits the mark. Dahlia's certainly did so! This Spanish, Mexican flavor fusion took tapas to a new level. Our server, Jasmine, did an excellent job taking care of us, as did the rest of the team. Planning on going back as soon as I can to try more from this gem in Phoenix! read more

Dinner last night at Dahlia's was fabulous. The owner was so gracious and welcoming, the staff friendly and professional, great wines, all the right vibes for a fun dinner with friends. Recommend going with a group that likes to share and ordering everything. My personal faves were the grilled shrimp w a duo of herby tartar and zingy cocktail sauce, potato croquettes, octopus carpaccio (that salsa negra has the perfect smoky heat), and the grilled portabella mushroom served over a super flavorful bean puree (on the special list, but they really should keep this on the permanent menu). I wouldn't have ordered the crema catalana but am so glad we tried it bc it ended up being my fave of the deserts, though the others were really tasty, too. Highly recommend! read more

Stopped in for a quick cocktail and apps before a show and were completely impressed. The service is extremely friendly and efficient. The sangria is perfect, and the tapas are out of this world! Can't wait to return when we have time to linger. Fabuloso!! I highly recommend. read more

Here's the scoop: Dahlia Tapas Tequila & Wine is one of those places you almost want to keep to yourself... but it deserves the hype. Start with the potato croquettes -- phenomenal. Jamón Serrano and Manchego inside, perfectly crisp outside, with brava sauce and crema that make the dish. The sauce in particular is outstanding: rich, slightly spicy, and the kind you want to drag every last bite through. I sat at the bar and had a couple of cocktails by Michaela, an excellent mixologist and great conversationalist. The Guayalajara (Mezcal Unión, aperitivo, guava purée, lime, agave) was bright and beautifully balanced. La Madrina (El Silencio mezcal, Chartreuse, St. Germaine, agave, lemon juice, Burlesque bitters) was smoky, herbal, complex -- and strong enough that the mezcal's name almost hints at a blackout if you're not careful. The vibe is intimate, cozy, and effortlessly hip -- the kind of neighborhood place that feels like a great discovery. Pro tip: Dahlia Tapas will be featured on PBS's Check, Please! Arizona on April 23, 2026. The episode has already been taped, and PBS usually posts episodes online afterward. My advice: go now before the post-TV crowds catch on. Verdict: four flames hot. read more

This location is absolutely beautiful, and the perfect spot for a date night. It's intimate, cozy, and a little exotic. We ate outside, December evening, and all that's needed is a light jacket (legit, Ms. Congeniality fans). The staff was very polite and quick, and the menu offers different tapas, small to large. I would say they certainly are more on the small to medium, and small is definitely small, but full of flavor!! My husband and I spent 2 weeks in Barcelona and we always crave jamon iberico, and have yet to find anything close. Of course we're not going to get the same thing like Spain; however something close would be nice which is why we were so excited to try this spot. The jamon on the menu is a small small plate ($30) and it tastes like they lightly sear or soak in olive oil & salt. It was good, but not what we were hoping for. I think the charcuterie was well worth the value (price, flavor, and amount). Overall, glad I came here to try, and the quality was high, service, execution, and taste, it was just very pricey for small portion. Bang was a bit small for a high buck. read more

Had a great time here! The food was awesome, especially the lamb chops and the Spanish dates (we actually ordered them twice). Everything paired really nicely with the Spanish red we had too. But I did feel portions were way bigger than I expected for tapas. The place itself is super cozy, but once it started to fill up, it got pretty loud and the service slowed down a bit. Overall, though, it was a lovely evening and a great date night spot. read more

I love this place it's so cute and cozy with delicious food. We got the lamb chops, grilled shrimp, and rib eye. All were sooooo good. I love their chimichurri sauce for the steak.

We went for the Valentine's Day experience/menu. Had reservations for 7:15pm but they were behind on previous reservations so I think we finally sat around 8pm. The restaurant is a small, cute, close seating spot. The Valentine's Day menu was good, we had the ribeye which was yummy, cooked really nicely. It did seem a little chaotic in there for a little bit, we kept getting the wrong food to our table and then out food out of order but eventually things straightened out. I would say if you go here on a special event night don't be in a rush and have time to wait. The food was delicious, you could tell the menu was well thought out and prepared. The bar drinks are really good. Service overall was good, our server was friendly and fixed any issues we had very quickly. There is only one restroom so go before you head here for sure lol we will go back in the future. read more

Boy were we late to this party! Until we saw this restaurant on "Check Please" on PBS, were we missing out on one spectacular find. The restaurant is charming, a hundred year old house converted to a fabulous restaurant. The staff is so friendly and helpful, making suggestions of all their selection of Tapas. Don't miss the potato croquettes with a spicy sauce, they are perfection. Crispy exterior with a flavorful, moist and creamy interior. The grilled shrimp were also perfection. We also ordered the chargrilled mixed vegetables, which were excellent. The offer a full bar with a great wine list. You can choose either inside or patio seating. They suggest reservations, especially for larger groups. Chef Andrew and Audrey will take great care of you at their exceptional restaurant! We cannot wait to return to try their other selections! read more

Started with the pan con tomate, absolutely delicious! We almost ordered a second one. The potato croquettes were awesome. The lamb may have been our favorite. The crudo a close second place. The boquerones and shrimp dishes were both stellar as well. Service was spectacular. The restaurant is cute and quaint inside. Parking is limited and best to go to their other lot about two businesses south of the restaurant. Price is up there...after tip for 4 people was about $315. So, not a weekly place but for a special occasion this place is outstanding. read more

We ordered eight different dishes, and every single one was outstanding. I honestly can't think of a single negative thing to say about this place. The service was excellent, the food was exceptional, and everything exceeded our expectations. To top it all off, we finished with the Basque cheesecake and it was hands down the best cheesecake I've ever had. read more

Made a reservation for 4 about 3 weeks ago but there was no table ready when we got there. We were sat right by the front door and the constant open and closing of the front door was unpleasant. The main dining room looked lovely and we would have preferred to be sat there. Especially with reservations so far in advance. We arrived right on time! The first bottle of white wine we ordered was warm. We didn't complain. Ordered another and asked for it to be on ice. That helped. Tapas for 4, 2 bottles of wine, one bottle of sparkling water --- our bill was $330! Yikes. Portions weren't overly big. The steak had a lot of fat on it. But the asparagus salad was delicious! The olives were amazing. The potato croquettes were also delicious! read more

I've been seeing this spot all over social media, so we had to check it out! Definitely recommend making a reservation--it's a small space with limited seating. The parking lot is also tiny, so driving isn't ideal. The menu is on the smaller side, but it looks like they rotate the options. Cocktails range from $16-$25, featuring fresh juices and mezcals, and the wine selection is excellent. We started with the jamón, but it was a bit underwhelming--the sauce overpowered the meat. The croquettes were average, nothing memorable. The highlight of the meal was the ribeye steak: top-quality meat, perfectly cooked, and a generous portion. If we return, it would be for a bottle of wine and that incredible steak--but be prepared, it's pricey! read more

I'm from LA, so I'm incredibly spoiled with amazing food everywhere. Our friends in Arizona booked Dahlia Tapas Tequila & Wine for dinner, and as their "foodie friends," they told us we absolutely had to try it. The ambiance is super charming. I love restaurants that feel like you're dining in a cozy house or backyard lit up with string lights. Inside there's also a beautiful bar with great cocktails, which really adds to the experience. The food left me impressed and ordering more just to try more (one of the perks of a tapas restaurant). The wine was great, and our waiter was phenomenal, helping us decide on the showstoppers and guiding us through the wine selections. The owner came out multiple times to check in, which I always think is an important touch that you don't get everywhere you eat. It shows the love the owner puts into the place and that they appreciate you spending your hard-earned money there. Everything we ordered was delicious. The ribeye was perfectly cooked, and the sauces tied everything together. The dates are not one to miss, and the shishito peppers had the perfect amount of heat for a side dish. And who doesn't love potato croquettes?! Crème brûlée paired with an espresso was the perfect way to end the night. They even brought out a chocolate cake for our friends' engagement celebration, which was such a thoughtful touch. Make the reservation, we loved it here! read more

Oh my goodness! What a find! This is the best restaurant we have been to in years. The food, drinks, service, and atmosphere were all fantastic. The best bite of food was the Spanish Dates paired with the pickled veggies were problematically delicious. But make no mistake, everything we ate was amazing. The drinks were all great, unique. The drink of the evening was the Como La Flor. A perfect balance of sweet, tart and wonderfully floral. You need to make it a point to get here!! read more

Made a reservation, smooth sailing check in! Waited for the rest of our party and got to order a drink while sitting in the cute patio area. Great cocktails!

Such a cute place, thankful for the most chill server welcoming us to our first night moving to AZ! read more

Came for food, coming back for the people...and food :) read more

Still obsessed with Dahlia. It's truly a special place. This time around we tried the crudo they had on special and it was phenomenal. I love how they mix flavors here. The croquettes were good as well - they have a nice kick. The stuffed dates and octopus carpaccio are still freaking fantastic. Had a cocktail with mezcal and passionfruit that was much better than the drinks the first time I came. Service is really exceptional. They pace the food out perfectly. I hope Dahlia is around forever because it's definitely one of my most favorite places! read more

We had the most incredible time here. We said goodbye to and celebrated our dear friend who is moving back to Chicago. It was without exaggeration the perfect experience! The food is absolutely incredible. We ordered the roasted veggies, anchovies, grilled shrimp, and bread with tomatoes. Every dish was simple and clean, yet melt-in-your-mouth and bursting with flavor. I've never liked anchovies, but WOW was that dish delicious! Buttery, spicy, savory goodness on crisp chips. I cannot wait to visit again and try more items on the menu. I don't doubt that anything I order will be a slam dunk! I tried "The Experience", which I won't spoil for you here but I highly recommend it. If you want to make your culinary adventure even more mysterious and fun, try it out! The staff blindfold you and you try several food tastings and a shot. Every detail is crafted to make it unique. The cocktails are SUPERB. I definitely overindulged and have no regrets! :D We ordered a bottle of some of the best wine I've tasted, and also tried several cocktails. The flavor profiles of both are such that you barely taste any alcohol--it's an equally thoughtful culinary adventure to drink here. The location is adorable. It's small and packed tightly with tables, but the ambiance is unmatched and it feels cozy. It boasts a romantic and relaxing atmosphere! Great place for a date night or get-together. Thank you to the amazing staff, who were so fun and charismatic. They really made the night that much better! They were attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate. They made sure we did not drive and had a safe plan for getting home. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. We will be back! read more

So excited to see this spot on 7th occupied! The first time I visited, I came for drinks with friends but ended up ordering food because the menu looked so good. We came back for a double date dinner and it was tons of fun to try several different things. The potato croquettes came recommended (for good reason) and I have to agree they're a can't-miss. We also enjoyed the tostada trio and the dates, but the lamb was really a standout--and easy to share. For drinks, I recommend the Black Dahlia and the Seville, but they also have seasonal specials. Both times I've been, the service is exceptional. Depending on how hungry you are, it can get a little pricey, but it's great food and a beautiful atmosphere. I recommend sitting outside if the weather allows. read more

The atmosphere is so charming and cozy. The staff is extremely, helpful, friendly and kind. We found this place by happenstance. We aren't local, our group of friends came from various parts of the country. We found this place to be unique and DELICIOUS. The owner came by our table and greeted us with charm and interesting conversation. We would absolutely come again next time we happen to be in town. Casual yet fine dining at the same time! A plus read more

Service was great! Our server was attentive and treated our larger group very well. We ordered the shishito peppers, tomato bread, tostada trio, steak, croquettes and lamb. I really enjoyed the tostadas and steak - very flavorful. I love tapas but the price is just so high for the amount of food - it's definitely something to consider. I will say I've been to other tapas restaurants and this is by far my favorite. read more

We live this place! Amazing food and staff are just great. The owner seems awesome and you can tell they take a lot of pride in what they offer. Cool vibes, great food with quality meats! The one thing is I think the cocktails in general are a little sweet but they'll make them less sweet if you ask. Just go here, you won't regret it! read more

Top notch! My partner found this off open table and surprised me in celebrating our 6 year anniversary here. I'll start off saying I was grateful they were accommodating to our being 10 minutes late for our reservation. We'd called ahead and informed them that we were behind. They said, "ok, see you when you get here". Parking is tough because it's a small lot and there's a lot next to the building south of it but it's hard to see and find at night. We ended up parking behind the Coffee spot at the corner and walked north up 7th ave to find it. The lights and sign are cute and easy to spot driving by. It immediately felt romantic walking up, the outside patio area seems so cute and they have misters. We were ready to ask our server to seat us outside upon seating us close to the entrance at the small table we had, but quickly felt as though the loud inside with laughs and groups and the tight space gave to the ambiance there. We enjoyed it and decided to stay seated. Had an amazing server, Reyna, who immediately welcomed us with such warmth and realness. We loved her vibe and loved how authentic she was with us. Gave us some wonderful recommendations on the menu and we took all but one, mainly because my boo doesn't like tomato's that much (I know, so sad!) We ordered a few apps: the croquettes, the dates, jamón ibérico, lamb chops, grilled vegetables, and finally the ribeye... had sparkling water because we wanted to eat our calories although I am semi sad that I didn't partake in one of their drinks because reviews and even a current fellow patrons were "mmm"ing from their tables when they took sips of theirs. Loved how the items were spaced as they were brought out so we had some time to munch and enjoy each because y'all.... DAMN everything was SO. DAMN. GOOD. Reyna said it and it was basically "stupid" how effing good the food was... I mean wow. Croquetas, I didn't realize they had jamón but it's gives them a kick. The papas inside were a perfect consistency and the flavor... wow. With the crunch and the cream on top and the sauce. Oh my wow. Next, the dates.... Holy... the bacon wrapped around and with the creamy mayo sauce, YUM. Perfectly paired with some pickled veg: carrots, cauliflower, snap peas, so good. The jamón ibérico... WOW, the smoothness to the jamón, the rosemary infusion was subtle but present and I WISHED I'd finished her full recommendation and had the pan con tomate to enjoy with the jamón ibérico... im dreaming of it now and when I come back I won't miss it. The grilled vegetables, I loved every single one. Seasoning was wonderful and I loved the variety. It came with peppers, zucchini, mushroom, and was splendidly paired with the meats. I saw a few asparagus salads come out and also feel I won't miss it next time. The lamb chops - came with some yogurt and mint of sorts... when I tell you I was struggling to NOT suck on the bone that was real. The flavor of the seasoning and they were so perfectly cooked. Finally, the ribeye... we were stuffed and trying to save our tummies to the savory ribeye which we ordered cooked medium rare, and it came out so perfect. The tenderness, the flavor, came with a cebolla atop and two sauces. My partner enjoyed the red spice and the oil to the side was my jam. We decided also on the dessert which was a crema with berries and it was literal perfection, almost like a crème brûlée type of custard with torched top, blueberries and raspberries on top. We left with boxes and had excellent conversation with Reyna the entire night. Was perfect for our romantic, delicious, very enjoyable anniversary dinner. It's a gem of a spot and I can't wait to go back to enjoy some drinks at the bar. It's beautiful as you can see; and the drinks sound incredible. read more

My wife and I had dinner at Dahlia yesterday. This wonderful restaurant defines the ultimate in quality dining. Each of the tapas was prepared with great skill and love, from the exquisite preparation of the marinated mushroom capping the mushroom special to the fine toasting of the bread for the pan con tomate. Equally impressive was the staff that seated us, our waiter, and the owner who made her way to each table to be certain of each party's satisfaction. As we are vegan, we were delighted with the menu options available to us. We will be returning to this stellar establishment! read more

First time, date night with my love. A pick me up "Friday evening " reservation for two. I didn't know where my husband was taking me, thought the area was a bit sketchy when we were exiting 7th St. No hostess standing at the booth, so we decided to go in and let someone know we had a reservation at 530pm. I was surprised to see the inside ambience and how clean it is compared to the outside. The service was on point, wine suggestions and all the amazing dishes. I've been to a high end tapas before and honestly, hit me with a car, this place did their things! Elevated quality and great service. I am definitely coming back for my Octopus Capacio! Honeeeeey! That surprise me with your Mole' sauce under the sea of Octopus got my taste buds going Whaaaat????! And the lamp chops are melting in my mouth and into my soul! Grab me a paramedic! I need to be resuscitated from over eating! Why aren't there lines out the door for this place? I'm totally bugging! The only thing keeping me from a full 5 horses is because the pan con tomates was not delicioso to my experience of it. I'll be back again for sure. read more

This place is a little confused imo. It felt like they are not committed to being a proper tapas restaurant. From the interior/exterior to the rather overboard bar to the poor service. First and foremost, the service is just tired and uninspired. They seem very disinterested in everything. There is no desire to explain the food or other. Nothing to make a person want to experience the tapas!! In addition, we were often left looking to flag someone down for something. As for the food/tapas, there is some good and some bad. The croquetas were excellent, hot, tasty and with a nice spicy sauce to accompany. After that, the rest was mediocre at best! It was the single worst example to pan con tomate we have ever had. It was toasted bread with a small ramekin of tomato. Such a magnificent tapa when down right turned to a big fail. The crudo and accompanying sauce and toppings were bland and pretty much no taste at an outrageous price(which they hide)!!! The lamb chops tasted good but were cold! No one came back for us to express our concern. One final strike, they can make espresso but not a cappuccino??!! Even a basic frother pot would do the trick! Drinking a cappuccino is pretty much an expectation during a tapas visit. Such a huge miss! Won't be returning anytime soon! read more

Starting this review off with a WOW! If you don't already know about Dahlia, let me put you up on game! This is the place you want to go eat at. Want a ribeye steak? Dahlia is the place. Want lamb chops? Dahlia is it. Want a Tapas style restaurant? Look no further than Dahlia! You will not be disappointed, we definitely were not. A special shout out to our server Jorge, who did an excellent job with providing great customer service. He answered our questions and made great recommendations. He provided us service with a smile and laughter. For our dining experience we ordered; Drinks - Black Dahlia The Matador Sangria Drinks were AMAZING Food - Roasted Veggies which included zucchini, large mushroom cap, broccolini, and red bell pepper Chilean Lamb Chops - lollipop style chops served over a yogurt sauce and Salsa Rojas on the side Argentinian Beef Ribeye - 20oz, with a grilled green onion over the top and chimichurri sauce and Salsa Rojas on the side Recommendations for the food, if you're a lamb chop eater, we do recommend getting this medium, just to enjoy the flavors. We went with the recommendation of getting it well and while it was still good, we feel we would have enjoyed it better on the medium side. Jorge did state getting the chops medium carries that gamey taste, so keep that in mind. The steak, definitely recommend medium rare or medium. We can't even put into words how beyond fantastic this steak was. We went with the recommendation of medium and OMG! The steak was PERFECT in every way! The chef/cooks did the damn thang with this steak. Lastly, the roasted veggies were so delicious, they were grilled to perfection, had great seasoning and went well with everything. All in all, our dining experience left us singing Johnny Gill "my, my, my, my, my, my, my, this food was sho nuff good tonight!" You don't even have to question, yes I'll be back, who's coming with? read more

I have found my new home for steak. Dining here was a delightful experience. This place is charmingly cozy and dimly lit. The wait staff were very friendly and accommodating. Service with a smile and suggestions on the menu was great! I selected this place to celebrate the completion of my book signing event and I am so happy that I did. The food specifically the 20 ounce Ribeye steak was phenomenal. Cooked to perfectiion. The taste of herbs and seasonings made my mouth so happy. The roasted veggies were cooked perfectly tender. It was all so explosive with the flavors. I have frequented several steakhouses (not chain restaurants) the upscale ones and as a foodie from IL to AZ and the Ribeye here was the best I ever had. Next visit is the 40 ounce Tomahawk. If you order it takes 45 minutes to prepare. read more

4.5/5! Overall, really liked Dahlia Tapas! This was great for a more quiet and intimate date night, as the location is a slightly off the beaten path and the property is a small, older house turned restaurant type restaurant. For Spanish tapas, this wasn't the best I've ever had but it was very good and we definitely enjoyed our meal. We had the catch of the day tartare and it was OK; the fish didn't have a whole lot of flavor but we really liked the sauce, which was like a spicy ceviche marinade flavor. I loved the potato croquettes--these were crispy on the outside and "fluffy" on the inside, and the serving was larger than expected. The lamb chops were good, but we really loved the Argentinian ribeye. The chimichurri was more oily than chunky, which I personally like, and the ribeye was a perfect medium rare; the meat was so tender! We also really liked the dessert, which was like crème brûlée with a hint of lemon. The staff were great--friendly, helpful and honestly just gave the impression they were happy to be part of this newer business. This is the kind of place I enjoy trying out; looking forward to coming again another time! read more
