Tapas time! Yes Please!…read more Had dinner here on a whim on a cold Saturday night. As soon as we walked in we noticed the place was jammed packed. We were lucky to get seated at the last two spots at the bar since we didn't have a reservation. The bar seating was actually nice because they had a nice display of liquor to show off. The waitress/waiters were very nice. They quickly got waters for us a couple of glasses of wine. We really like Spanish wines and they had a few Tempranillo wines to choose from so that was nice. We decided to share some Tapas and we were overwhelmed with all the options. Everything looked so good! We finally decided on the sautéed mushrooms, grilled shrimp (gambas), honey eggplant which was a nice sweet surprise and roasted potatoes with a yummy sauce. Everything tasted fresh and had great flavors. The service was great and the staff was very attentive and polite. I am curious now to try their Pallela but that's for next time!

We enjoyed our visit to this cute tapas bar! We were going to a movie in the area and this place…read morepopped up on the map. I'm glad we stopped in. It's a small space and at dinner time, it's packed. I suggest making a reservation if you plan to come at peak time. It's not fancy but it's good. The staff was working very hard, but for a small staff, they were pretty attentive. We enjoyed all of our food. My favorite was the chicken paella and the chorizo sausage. The prices were also affordable for the amount of food provided. I recommend and I'd stop back in!

Took my parents here for a Sunday dinner and it was an absolute home run! We ordered the Pan de…read moreCasa, Pan con Tomate, Dátiles, Albondigas, Croquetas de Jamon, Solomillo, and Churros for dessert and honestly every single dish was a winner. The pacing was perfect. Every 5-10 minutes a new dish would arrive, which made the whole meal feel like a fun, festive experience. No long waits, no awkward gaps, just great food flowing steadily to the table. The Pan de Casa and Albondigas were the clear crowd favorites. My parents are in their 60s and adventurous eaters, and they were absolutely blown away. My dad couldn't stop raving about the meatballs! A huge shoutout to Kayla, our server, who was attentive, warm, and made the whole evening feel special. Sunday is a great night to go, relaxed vibe, great service, and the kitchen is clearly on point. T'ahpas 529 is a gem in Melrose. We will absolutely be back!

I hate writing this review, its been many years coming, but I honestly thought I wrote it years…read moreago, but somehow it just popped up in my "Please review" section of Yelp, so here I am... So I visited T'ahpas many years ago - date night dinner, left the kids at home & wanted adult food and Tapas were becoming all the rage at the time. Read good reviews, got there, small place, quaint, really good atmosphere, we began ordering food and OMG did we order sooo much, we liked a few things so much we ordered multiple plates, Im talking total fat kid night... Then we are sitting there and it was later at night so the place was empty and instantly I FREEZE - My BF at the time looked at me and noticed panic, he knew exactly what I saw from my reaction - there was a mouse in the dining room, now listen, I GET IT.. All restaurants have them, I wasnt even grossed out like that, THEY ARE MY BIGGEST fear in life, like if someone said Heres a million dollars be in a room with a mouse, I would have to pass! That scared, I dont know why - just am!!! So I exhaled and sat there... it started to run closer, it then disappeared and I slowly was able to unclench and then it came back like 20 mins later, this mouse was ballsy, like there are people walking around in & out and I just couldnt anymore. We got the bill and left, and I told many people and they said I should have complained on the spot but that just isnt me... Im just mad because the Food was GOOOOOOOD... I want to go back but a part of me is just like Nope, Not going to happen! So my take, the food is great, better than great! Hoping it was a one off situation and not a regular occurrence but I would love to come back, Im just a big pussy!

Tried Matadora in MA, it's located inside a Hilton, so definitely convenient if you're staying…read morethere. The space is nice and makes for an easy dinner option without leaving the hotel. That said, I wouldn't go out of my way to visit. The food was just okay, especially for the price. The portions were on the smaller side and felt a bit expensive for what you get. They do offer gluten-free options, which is always appreciated. Overall, a decent, convenient spot if you're nearby, but not necessarily a destination restaurant.

It looks nice inside the Hilton hotel. A group of us arrived on a Sunday early evening with…read moreunnecessary reservations. We each had an entree, shared 2 orders of the beef empanadas (Star of the show!), and a total of 5 cocktails and 2 beers. The bill came to just over $300 before tip. This isn't horrible for a tapas spot, but the taste of the entrees were just not worth it. That, and the amount of alcohol you get in most of the cocktails. So much ice and like 2 sips of drink. There's 1 drink with aperol and champagne that is big and you get the remainder of the small champagne as a side car though. We had 2 of the paellas and they were on the smaller side for paella. The flavor was meh and nothing really stood out. I had the steak frites and it was such a small portion of steak. Maybe 4 oz? And the char flavor was so overpowering. The chimichurri I was looking forward to was extremely mild in flavor. The fries were cooked nicely though. Our server was friendly but forgetful. She kept forgetting parts of our order and whether she had already done something or not. Was a bit odd. Overall, I won't be making an effort to come back here.

Good thing one of the girls behind the counter spoke English because the menu is in Spanish. Good thing is there are pictures so even if they didn't it wouldn't be an issue. I didn't see chichironies but asked if they had them and they said yes. I got them. If you've never had chichironies (chunks of fried skin pork) you should stop in and have them. We'll be back just for those. FYI, they also have a small bar.

Both the drink and food menus have a staggering variety of items. My favorites were the tortilla español ($10) that came with the delicious garlic aioli and the jamon Iberico ($34), though nothing was a dud. The croquetas were hot, fluffy, and so unique. The interior is gorgeous and the staff are wonderful.

I was super excited to try this tapas spot - i loved aesthetic (it really reminded me of an upscale…read morespot in Barcelona) and really enjoyed the dishes we ordered but unfortunately was a bit disappointed overall with the experience The food itself was delicious! We started with the patatas bravas which were crispy, savory, hot, and delicious. The lamb skewers were sooo good - tender and paired so well with the buttery brioche and pickled onions. We also loved the steak and chorizo - sooo delicious with the garlic aioli. Portions are on the small side and you are charged extra for any adds! The service is where we were let down and why I cannot rate any higher. We came on a Saturday afternoon and despite it not being too busy, it took almost an hour for even our first dish to come out. Additionally, it wasn't until after our first dish came out that we were told they were out of two other dishes that we had ordered. Each dish took a long time with delivery and our server was nowhere to be found (never got our water refilled, never checked in on us, and never even checked us out and we had to learn on our own that we use the QR code).

Unacceptable really, the hostesses and manager avoided eye contact pretty much the entire time we waited. Don't accept so many reservations if you're going to make people wait 45+ minutes. Food and atmosphere were great though, the only saving graces.

Our server Catherine was the best. My first time here, she helped me navigate the menu and wine list. She was very attentive and friendly. FOOD: Outstanding! I tried several tapas options and I enjoyed every single one. My favorite was the lemon hummus - YUM! But the olives, patatas bravas, and hamachi crudo were pretty darn tasty! High recommend for this place - I was surprised to find out it was part of a chain, but it feels like its own local restaurant.
