The patatas bravas were just like those I had in Spain - aioli style. The wine was especially good, too. The whole experience felt like being back in Spain with good food, good wine and big laughs with genuine people.

I went with a big group and we tasted lots of dishes, say for hours, had kids running around, sat at the bar, moved to a table, drinks lots of cerveza, ordered at random times and absolutely everything was perfect - the staff, the food, and the space. Really nice job.

Another miss by the Michelin Guide... seriously, what happened here?…read moreYet another head-scratcher from the Michelin Guide in The Hague. How this place snagged a Bib Gourmand is beyond me. The location itself is nice -- right in front of the Kneuterdijk tram stop, across from the VOCO IHG hotel, and just a short stroll from our Hotel des Indes. So far, so good. My husband made a reservation for lunch, which turned out to be completely unnecessary -- there were plenty of open tables. We sat down and ordered their "bread service," which turned out to be... grocery store bread with a side of EVOO from Greece. Now, this is supposed to be a Spanish restaurant, so I'm not sure why we're doing Greek olive oil here. Nothing against Greek oil (love it, actually), but it just didn't make sense. The bread itself? Meh. And yes, you pay for it -- which I know is pretty standard in the Netherlands, but still. For our meal, we just ordered a few appetizers since we weren't that hungry and had another reservation later. We got the sardinas anchoadas -- just three little slivers for 10 euros; shrimp croquetas that barely tasted like shrimp and were overcooked by about 30 seconds (the color gives it away and you bite into a over crispy bite that skins your whole roof of the mouth; and sobrasada, which was chorizo on brioche. Except the "brioche" was not fresh at all -- it was basically sliced white bread cut into a circle and toasted. Come on, guys. We also ordered a board of jamón ibérico, which should've been glistening with that beautiful marbled fat, but it looked dry and lifeless. None of these dishes were standouts, and honestly, not one of them was worth writing home about. We had three glasses of wine with our food, followed by coffee, verbena tea, and crema catalana for dessert. Again -- nothing bad, just nothing special. Everything felt... average. And for the prices they charge, that's a no from me. The bill came to about USD 120.

From the owner: Restaurant Tapisco is 7 dagen per week geopend vanaf 11:00 uur 's ochtends…read more Tijdens de lunch worden authentieke gerechten uit de Spaanse en Portugese keuken geserveerd in een moderne uitvoering. De lunch gaat langzaam over in de borrel waar je een heerlijk plateau vers gesneden Spaanse Hammen kan bestellen. Cocktails hebben een groot aandeel in het concept van Restaurant Tapisco. De eye-catcher in de zaak is dan ook de fraai geoutilleerde bar die in het middelpunt van de ruimte staat, met 6 grote Spaanse hammen die hangen te rijpen. De bartenders draaien hun hand niet om voor een klassieke cocktail of een eigentijdse variant. Naast de Spaanse hammen die sowieso heel de dag verkrijgbaar zijn, kunnen de gasten in de avond kiezen uit een scala aan tapas en petiscos, zoals empenada's , gilda (beroemde pinxto uit San Sebastian), macaron van inktvis en tonijn, kiphaasje en gamba piri piri etc.

In the evening it's a restaurant that turns into a Bar when everybody is eating. The main reason i ended up here was that it seemed to be the only place in the street with proper chairs to sit comfortable. After walking a lot the day i was in the need. Inside they serve high quality alcohol, good beer, whiskey etc... and not only the standard stuff. I didn't taste the food really, but we had a good talk to the barkeeper.
