Despite this place is a little bit far for me I always do lunch there when in the area. They have the best EVER Arroz con Pollo, also the croquetas are Amazing but the new price is a little crazy so I'm staying away from them. Also, the wine list is pretty good, they have several good value wines as well as a handful of high end ones with a relatively fair price. If you are into wine make sure to go on Wednesdays since they do a 50% off on the ones under $100 and 20% on all other (if I remember correctly). The service by everyone is always personal, Belen has managed to put together a great team and that's why you see lots of people coming back for more! read more

This is my second time here and food has been consistently delicious, flavorful and great quality. Staff is just delightful from the minute you step into this popular Hialeah restaurant. We had to order the Serrano ham and manchego cheese croquettes which are the best croquettes I've had in Miami and even better than Islas Canarias which I never thought could be possible. The sangria is also one of the best in town. I had the octopus, the spicy clams and fried garbanzo beans as well and not one single item left me disappointed. They also have live music from Wednesday to Saturday I believe. I'm not sure if this is owned by Spaniards or not but they without a doubt cook delicious Spanish cuisine. Only thing I didn't like is the parking situation for its limited and not a lot of street parking either but other than that it's a nice little joint. read more

food was okay, the service was frustrating. I had to keep asking for my appetizer and it still came out only a few minutes before my main meal. I was very frustrated at home when I looked at my receipt. on the bottom it said an amount for cash and like $15 more for credit card charge. that is ridiculous. after spending more than $400, you going to charge me more for using a credit card. you will never see my face there again. read more

We go once a year to H Town to do our taxes and I had seen a few old friends of mine on Facebook post about a Spanish restaurant. I asked the girls in the accounting office and they told me about this gem. We were pleasantly surprised by this little joint. We went on a Thursday, and they had a live guitarist, which set such a nice mood. Then our waitress Jenny told us it was half off bottles of wine-well don't mind if I do! Had a great Spanish wine call tudadores or something like that. Can't recall the name as my husband chose it but it was a great red wine and for $20 a bottle, what a steal!! Anyway, we orders a bunch of tapas. Spanish omlette, grilled octopus, croquettes, mushrooms in garlic sauce, then had salmon and lamb as our main courses. The mushrooms were good, but the garlic could have been sliced thinner and let the garlic infused. into the mushrooms a bit better, but they were still nice. The octopus, could have used a little more time on the grill as some parts were like gummy and it could have used a little more acid, garlic or something?? The Spanish omelette could have benefited from being warmed up and having a drizzle of a good olive oil over it, as I've had in other Spanish places. My husband said his lamb was delicious. My son ate to his heart's content, filling up on croquettes, rice and garbanzos If I were in H town, I would no doubt be back here. read more

Food is always fresh and flavorful. On my most recent visit the sangria was mixed with coco cola and just did not taste right. Despite the waitress trying to fix it still did not taste right. It was taken back and taken off the tab. I still am giving five stars because they did the correct thing. Good service needs to be recognized. I would recommend and go back read more

Our waitress Sarah, hope I spelled her name right, was very professional and attentive. The ambiance was cozy with a guitarist playing. As an appetizer we ordered the Serrano Ham and Manchego cheese croquettes. Simply the best I have ever had! Perfectly cooked and the taste has me craving more as I type this. I ordered the Spanish Milanesa and my wife had Arroz Con Camarones. Both dishes were perfectly prepared and the flavors were spot on and amazing. For dessert we had the Crema Catalana and 2 cafes espressos, a perfect end to a perfect meal. Based on this place's location one would not expect a fine dining experience. Definitely 10 out of 10 would recommend! TTFN! read more

Love this place! Have been here a number of times and have never been disappointed. Tonight we had the camarones enchilados, paella mixta, and pasta with salmon. Everything was super flavorful and delicious. Service is good and they have live music on the weekends. There's a bar area you can sit to eat and have a drink. There's also an outside seating area available as well. Great little spot in The City of Progress!! The only downside is the parking. Limited parking up front and the rear parking is really tight. It's always pretty busy, but they do take reservations which I encourage if going on the weekends. read more

The entree arrived while I was finishing my soup; I got it. You needed to turn the table for the next customer...but give me a break. I went to relax and celebrate my birthday, not to be rushed out. Overall I will give them a second chance. A compliment to the chef: food was prepared and cooked excellently. read more

This restaurant isn't reinventing the wheel or doing anything particularly amazing when it comes to its dishes but it provides the perfect homey meal when you just don't feel like cooking after a long day. It's filling and balanced. I'll take it for what it is. Drinks: I had the Hennessy Margarita which I've never heard of before in my life but it tasted good. One was enough. Ambiance: Very quaint and cozy inside. Warm lighting, somewhat sultry. A place to feel comfortable like a neighborhood bar but a bit more upscale. My date had the chicken with slightly sauteed vegetables (onion, pepper) on top with maduros and Moro rice. A solid meal. I had 6 large lamb chops which 3 I took home with garlic sauce, mashed potatoes and seasonal veggies (zucchini and squash. Overall the lamb chops dish I could've made at home better but for a lazy I don't feel like cooking night out it did the job. The garlic sauce was flavorful. I could do without the veggies - it needed some seasoning it reminded me of something you get from your school cafeteria. The mashed potatoes tasted instant. read more

I've been coming here since they opened the restaurant and I'm glad to see they have consistently continued to grow a deliver great quality and service. This place is the perfect fusion between Hialeah and Spain. Their croquetas are just a staple at this point. That day we also tried some new items: empanada de rabo encendido aka Oxtail empanadas, and what a great idea! Idk how no one has come with this before but the flavor was so rich! We enjoyed la teracita, for a nice lunch during happy hour, and it was excellent, also their staff is so attentive and nice, which sadly is a rare find these days, but so refreshing!! And the place is very nice and intimate. Just love it here, I've been coming for years and everyone I recommends becomes a regular read more

As a Hialeah Native, my heart is rejoicing with the existence of La Bodeguita in H town. So pleasantly surprised with the food, the ambience and the service. From the outside, you wouldn't know what to expect. I've travelled down 4th Ave countless times and I never thought much of the strip mall or the corner in where it's located- So I'm glad that through yelp and the grapevine, I heard about how fantastic La Bodeguita is. We started of with one of their charcuterie boards. So yummy. The quality of the cured meats was great. The cheese and jelly paired well with their delicious bread. For entrees, my husband had masitas de puerco with ceaser salad and tostones. I have to rave about the tostones because they came with a green garlic sauce. I'm a sauce girl, so that was awesome to see and taste. For my entree, I had the arroz con pollo. The presentation was lovely and the dish itself was tasty. It was a great meal. I also had a couple of their mojitos. Refreshing and well served. Overall, great food and service. Would love to come back on a weekend to see a show. TIP: There is extra parking in the back. read more

I have been going to this little Spaniard gem for a while and today I said I need to write a review about this place. This place makes you feel like you are in Spain. The place is small but you feel welcomed. They do have outside seating as well. The food here is delicious and the service is always amazing. I went here with my mom for lunch and we both had the picaña ( sirloin steak) $21 meal with white rice and fries. That is my favorite and it was super delicious. I added my meal with shrimp w for a couple dollars more and it comes with 4 pieces of shrimp. I paired my meal with a delicious Sangria that cost $8. We also shared a crème brûlée for our choice of pastry and it was ok alittle burnt. They have live flamenco dancing and a person that plays guitar on certain days and they charge like $5 per person for the entertainment. I love this place and this is my go to place when I want to have Spaniard food. read more

The Ambiance was nice and welcoming. The service was great! The food was awesomely good for the price. I had the vaca frita and it was tasty favorable. Folks, must stop by and try this place out, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy! read more

I ordered 4 seafood paellas for my mom's birthday. I had been told they were very good and decided to give it a try. I have to say they are not stingy with the seafood. There was plenty of everything, even a small lobster tail. However, the rice was not moist and because it was stuffed so tightly into a small container, the dish became clumpy. I do not recommend ordering this dish unless you are dining in. I will give it another shot soon. read more

It's a small restaurant with very few booths which is my favorite seating but the food was really good and the service was very on point.

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere in a really unexpected space and location. Everything we ordered was superb: the croquetas, arroz con pollo, pork belly, salmon, churrasco, and all the sides were absolutely to die for. For after-dinner drinks we had a little shot of coffee with some type of liquor but I can put my finger on what it was at the moment. Just trust me that it was delicious LOL read more

I had been to this placing many years ago and yesterday a Friday night I decided to go try it out again they had 2for 1 drinks and some music which is what I was looking for to relax after a weeks worth of hard work. The service is good . The yuca frita a la española was different and good the lobster dip the put with it is awesome. La Loca vaca frita is also unique a well done . The arroz con pollo is not all that could do much better it lacked taste. As a desert we had some almond cake with coconut ice cream it was delicious not to sweet just perfect. What really bothered me was we were a party of two and we got to included in our bill. I understand most restaurants included after a bigger party. Say a five when it's only two people I don't believe this should be the case. it was a $20 tip and then if you pay with credit card, it was an additional five dollars to pay with a credit card Which I think it's ridiculous and it's my reason for the three stars. I know companies have a fee for the vendor, but it is not a five dollar fee. I think they need to look into this better and we're talking about a restaurant in the middle of Hialeah. It's not even in Brickel that you kind of expect perhaps those Prices. read more

Very quaint and cozy spot. Good food and music! The best ham croquetas I've ever had!

I can't say enough good things about this place. Visited for my second time on Mother's Day and despite it being a busy holiday, the staff showed out! The host was so sweet and attentive to our group. Such a pleasant experience from the moment we walked in. They have live music on Sundays and it made for such a nice atmosphere for dinner with mom. Make sure to order garbanzo frito and pulpo as starters. The octopus was served on a bed of mash and was perfect to share with the group. Garbanzo frito comes in a fairly small bowl so I would order one for every couple. Not sure if it was a special for the occasion but our groups favorite starter were the rabo empanadas. If you're a fan of rabo, don't skip this treat! Their paellas are so big and paired with maduros or yuca frita. These can easily be shared between two people after some starters. Their crème brûlée is their perfect light but delicious dessert to finish off such a perfect dinner. read more

The only reason I am not rating this great restaurant a 5 , is because restrooms Both men and women - were not taken care of. TP and paper towel wise. Other than that, we all had an amazing time. Food came out quick, nice and hot! I felt like I was eating homemade Spaniard tapas Our tables favorite dishes, a few were recommended by our next to us table of regulars: were the bacalao tapas with the tartare sauce, and the Mahi mahi dip with the sweet chip plantains . Also the brava potatoes were nicely seasoned and crispy. Oh, and the croquets were yammy- thevinside was saucy - nice and soft texture if you like that type of croquet. Service wise, We had Carlos, the waiter Nice guy and on top of everything. Last but not least, The entertainment show was ver good. The singer and guitar player. As well as the flamenco dancer was very good read more

Very good tapas! Music is nice. Very nice to go with friend or on a date. Everyone is very nice.

I was about to not go because the reviews on Yelp were great but wow! Everything was delicious. You know a restaurant will be great if the simplest items on the menu are fresh and high quality. I ordered a side of tostones and when I saw them I noticed they were FRESH! Pay attention Miami! Stop serving prefrozen tostones! From there everything was just fabulous. Will totally come back. Oh and for the safety conscious: their booths are divided by see through glass for covid precautions. Awesome! read more

Was super excited to come here. I love a tapas bar. I quickly learned that maybe it wasn't the right move. Staff was friendly upon arrival. We sat on the covered patio. Ordered a drink- wow. I think all I had was straight tequila. I didn't wanna be THAT girl and return it- so I kept it. I ordered two tapas : calamari and yuca bites. I love calamari, but they came out over cooked and looked more like onion rings. The yuca bites were decent. Mom and grandma got churrasco. That was pretty good. No price on the menu- which was weird. ** apparently you have to tell staff before you order if you're going to have separate checks. They will NOT split it for you. && then they hover to get the signed copy and top** Also all three of us had upset stomachs for the rest of the night and in the morning. I wouldn't come back. read more
