The service is amazing. I love the plane theme. The servers wore outfits that looked like flight attendants. Super cute. The food, tapas, was delicious but a bit expensive. The only alcohol they serve is wine. They have very good wines, but again expensive. I would love this place if they had a happy hour special and if they had other spirits, maybe in mini-airplane sized bottles. Overall, great little gem, but maybe for a fancy night out. read more

This is a gem in Old Town Spring! I'd known of this place for a while, but I was finally able to bring my pilot dad here for Father's Day. We really enjoyed the aviation theme, which they pulled off as unique and cohesive without feeling tacky. The interior has a relaxing ambiance, but very limited seating. It's reminiscent of a classy airport lounge, with classical guitar music playing in the background; but there's only about 4-5 table tops while the rest is bar seating. I would recommend making a reservation to ensure a seat. Our food came out more quickly than expected. I had to ask to be served water, which was a little surprising given that the service was otherwise good. Our waitress told us that the paella takes 35 minutes to make but we ordered the Paella de Mariscos for our table and not only did it come out very quickly, but it became everyone's favorite dish. I'd still advise you to order this first if this is something you want to try. Aside from the paella, the portions are understandably small since this is tapas, but we left feeling satiated. Because this is located in Old Town Spring, there is an entire parking lot as well as street parking, but finding a spot can be a hit or a miss in the summertime. Surprised to say that their bathroom is very cute and clean (walls are plastered with sheet music). Also know that there are huge West-facing windows here, which give this already small place a bright and open feel - but made our table very, VERY warm since we were having dinner as the summer sun was setting. This is an excellent establishment for special occasions, but think about bringing a small fan if you plan on visiting on a summer evening. - Ambiance: 5/5 - Drinks: 5/5 - Food: 4.5/5 - Service: 4/5 read more

Visited Plane and Level Up in Old Town Spring on Sunday. Seated promptly at noon, the beautifully decorated, albeit small, restaurant filled up quickly by 1:30. I shared - Fresh Bread Service ($10) - Albondigas ($18) - the meatballs were a burst of flavor with a rich blend of pork, beef, and black truffle. - Magret de pato ($28) - the duck breast, paired with sweet potatoes and confit grapes, was tender and delightful. While the dishes were delicious, the price seemed a tad high for the portion sizes, echoing sentiments from other reviews. Nonetheless, they offer a unique culinary experience in a charming setting, making it worth a visit for special occasions. read more

I had lunch with four friends and I had the best time. They offer a tapas experience with an intimate wine bar. This place has it all and the wine list is exceptional. They are known for their Paella Saturday and included a pic of the paella that two of my friends had in the slides. They have recently added paella to a daily rotation just call if you have questions. I ordered bread service, Ensalada de Remolacha which is a red beet salad with orange segments, pistachios and a goat cheese mousse and I must say top 4 best salad I've ever had in my life. I also had Fritura de Alcachofa which is a corn starch fried artichoke in a romesco sauce. For the wine I had a red blend by Paul & Remy and a sparkling Rose .. forgot to write down the name. Such a cool date night spot or a great place for a business meeting. The service was amazing and the chef, manager and staff were all amazing. Joy was my server ask for her if you visit. Let's talk value. I do think this place is pricy though and that is why I dropped a star. It was amazing but it's not a place I could go to every week. I think my lunch total was $75 for just me and for lunch that's more than I usually spend. I also thought the portions were small especially my artichoke dish. If you check it out let me know. read more

Came here with a friend looking to try a nice tapas place. Unique style, quaint, and best of all delicious food, all this passes with flying colors (pun intended) Atmosphere: Very colorful but not overwhelming, the big seller for me was that the bar table is an airplane tail wing, giving reason for the name. Food: Tapas, so expect many good sharable perfect for brining a friend along. I shared a bottle of wine as well due to their selection. My favorite tapas were the ham, beef, and pork. There's quite a few options but the severs will be happy to assist. Service: As stated above friendly service and more than happy to answer any questions you may have. Plane & Level, it's plane to see that this place is amazing and worth a visit if you are around the area. Perfect for any outing with a friend and to share a conversation with. read more

My friend and I came in on a girls night, this place was so unique and beautiful, very cozy snd intimate. Great for a date night! The staff was super friendly and attentive. We ordered a few of the plates. The food was good, but the portions were way too small for what they were charging. Overall, this place was really nice but we left hungry and went and got burgers and wings after somewhere else. read more

This was an interesting experience. I'll first say that I am from Spain so I am probably biased in my opinion. I really did enjoy the food. It was delicious and flavorful and fairly authentic. However, the price point was not that of tapas. The portion size compared to price did not add up. We spent over $100 and were nowhere near full. We actually had to go to another restaurant afterwards to actually feel like we had a full meal which was the first time I've ever done this. Now, could we have ordered more and spent a lot more? Yes, but I didn't want to. So if you are fine with the prices and can get your fill then great! Just be aware that these are very small portions as they are tapas sized. The croquetas de chorizo were delicious but much smaller than anything I've ever had in Spain. The scallops was my favorite plate. Very delicious. The patatas Bravas were fried to perfection and I just wish there had been more. The octopus was a little tough on the thicker end and very small. The basque cheesecake was not the burnt style I am used to but it was very delicious and I loved the mint and orange peel. Overall I loved the food just not the portion/price point ratio. It is a really nice small restaurant. We had no idea it was airplane themed so it was kind of confusing for the first ten minutes. I think it needs to be made more obvious. When we walked in the waitress kept saying you can sit at the wing or at a table and I kept asking her to repeat herself because I had no idea what she was talking about. She finally said bar. The bar is actually made out of an airplane wing but we had never been there and I couldn't tell from the door as people were sitting there so it was just confusing. The waitresses were even wearing flight attendant uniforms which was wholly unexpected. It was cute once we were aware of the themed experience. Service was great. Very professional and attentive. However being a Spaniard, the waitresses had a hard time understanding me when I ordered even though I was reading clearly from the menu. They also could not actually pronounce anything on the menu. They even had trouble saying grape varietals when explaining the wines. I think some training on proper pronunciation would be helpful since this is supposed to be an authentic high end experience. Now lastly there are two walls of shelves with rose wine right in front of glass window walls. While aesthetically pleasing...it was a very sunny day. I believe these are served to patrons and this exposure to sunlight is damaging the wine. We were very confused that a wine place would do this with their bottles. read more

Thomas made our experience exceptional! We stopped in on a whim because of the airplane theme and our friend is a pilot. Thomas directed me to a lovely Tempranillo. He had a couple other selection ideas because there are so many options. All are unique to this restaurant! Our friend got the Plane & Level Martini (it's made with wine because they do not have a liquor license) and she was very pleased. My hubby got the Bock...he was a happy camper! We also tried the croquet & yellowtail tapas. Delish!! We finished it off with a taste of the Mas Amiel 85....not gonna spill the beans. Plan on pairing with the chocolate tort!! read more

Service was so slow and we were the only ones here? Plus we ordered a salad and we ended up getting it to go since it was delivered AFTER the dessert. I want to come back and give the place another try since it was so cute and quaint inside but the slow service and salad to go was no acceptable for the amount we spent. The duck was amazing and the empanadas were good. The decor and ambience is so elegant and makes you feel like you're in Spain, at a tapas bar. read more

~2.4 stars. Came in for dinner for two on a weekday night. It's a nice cozy place. That being said, leave your kids at home as the place is tight and there are no high chairs. Pulpo a la Plancha - $24 This was a small tapa with four pieces of octopus legs with a bunch of chickpeas. The octopus was soft and flavorful, I just wish there were more pieces and slightly less cooked so we had a bit of a chew to the meat instead of it being uniformly soft. Seafood Paella - $70 Took about 30 minutes and was told before ordering. Dish was bigger than the tapa we had earlier but not all that big considering the paellas I've had in the past. Dish had two big prawns in the middle a few octopus chunks and mussels and squid, and the majority were clams. The prawns were delicious, not overcooked and soaked up all the paella flavor. Unfortunately, from there things went downhill. The rice was overly salty (probably to try to balance out the unseasoned mussels and clams) and the dish had an unusual amount of sand/grit from the seafood. I don't mind a little bit here and there but our paella had a very noticeable amount from not properly cleaning/releasing the shellfish. Also, not a huge biggie, there was no crispy bottom. We also ordered a salad but the server forgot to put it in. By the time the paella came out, I asked them to just cancel it if they hadn't already started. There was no apology or mention that they forgot. Otherwise, service was good. Reviews were good so we were excited to try it. Unfortunately, we must have come on an off night. Prices are definitely steep for the quantity (and quality). Wine ($16/glass) was good at least? read more

If you love sharing small plates, great wine and a chill but elevated ambience this place is for you. They have a great selection of wines you can choose from by the glass or the bottle. One top of their menu they have daily specials you can choose from. Our waitress was amazing! She was very attentive and kept the water, wine and cocktails flowing. Most of us chose one of her recommendations which was a special. The lamb kabobs with the sweet potato purée was amazing! The flavors were so different but complimented each other so well! This place if you are alone, a couple, or in a bigger group! read more

We lucked out - walked in after shopping. Wanted a cool glass of wine and ended up staying 2 hours. Stephanie is AMAZING! She answered all my questions and was so patient with us as we couldn't decide. All the staff was first class; attentive and friendly. We did a wine flight and had several tapas. There was an extensive wine list and a variety of food for the pickiest of eaters. Everything we had was amazing. read more

This place has such a nice ambiance, music is very nice and relaxing. Very appropriate for the tapas style of food. Every single plate we ordered was perfect! Very tasty, perfectly cooked and amazing presentation. The service also was immaculate! We didn't order much because we made a mistake of having eaten ice-cream a little before coming here, so we were not on empty stomach. Nevertheless, we hope to come back soon to try the rest of the tapas. read more

I really enjoyed the food at this place. Great flavor. My only issue is that it was very expensive. Also, I noticed they had quite a few wine bottles on shelves near windows. That's a lot of light and heat going into those bottles. Probably not the best placement for those. Especially with how expensive they are. I'd hate to spend a lot of money and get a wine that has been destroyed by the heat and sunlight. read more

Wow. Authentic Spanish tapas in Old Town Spring? Yup! Not only are the dishes intensely (and wonderfully) flavored, the wine list is a delight. We stumbled in for a late lunch on a Sunday afternoon and were absolutely blown away. We ordered the gambas, croquettes, duck breast, and about 10 other things. Each was beautifully presented with quite a flavor payoff. The octopus was divine! Having been to Spain 3 times, I can honestly say this place comes about as close to a great night in Madrid as you can get, absent an 8 hour flight! read more

This is a hidden gem. Just got back home after a wonderful evening there. We ordered a lot (the tapas were that good) and had a bottle of wine. The charcuterie and empanadas was a big hit for us. The ambiance was great. To make it amazing (romantic) I would recommend dimming the lighting a little to make it more cozy but that's just me nitpicking. Loved the waitstaff to clientele ratio which added to the attention we and other patrons were getting. This is a small place which added to that coziness I mentioned above. This may very well be my go to place to decompress and enjoy a wine with tapas. read more

Cool tapas bar with authentic Spanish food. We got the paella which is a large load of food, the empanadas, and tried the iberico jamon which they carved off a leg right at the bar, something I haven't had the pleasure of tasting since my last trip to Barcelona. They served the jamon with these crackers that were so crunchy and perfect. We had so many bites of a lot of tapas, which is as it should be. It reminded me so much of nights with friends in Asturias stuffing ourselves full of tapas and American beer (for them it was imported so they thought Coors was fancy, lol). The only thing that was missing was someone pouring cidra above their heads into the glass and passing the glass around while everyone sips out of it for the sake of community. We got great service, but that might be because the friends we were with are regulars, so the staff already knew which wines they would order. It's a small room with a lot of people in it and everything we tasted was delicious. It's been a long time since I've said that so let me say it again- EVERYTHING was delicious. read more

Plane & Level - Great wine selection! - Tapas Bars Near Me - Spring, Texas

We don't deserve this place. Plane & Level is among the best tapas restaurants at which I've ever dined. The wine list is fantastic and well thought out... they pour so many great bottles by the glass, that you'll never be miffed at your inability to try something new. Spring / the Woodlands doesn't deserve this place. I'm glad it's here--please come so I can come back. Standouts included the Gambas al pil-pil, the charcuterie board, the braised short rib, and the piquillo peppers. Honestly everything we ordered was wonderful. I should leave a lengthier review but the food pics and stars stand on their own. Don't miss this gem... it would have a home in the busiest, most competitive areas of any big city. What a true gem. read more

What a gem!! I'm so glad my friend and I stumbled across this place. Fantastic wine and Spanish tapas! The atmosphere is modern and classy, with a plane/flight theme-- pretty unique. The service was absolutely fantastic, attentive, and very professional. All the tapas we tried had such a good flavor, and we highly enjoyed it. I would say to come here mostly for the experience, rather than getting full. We tried the croquetas de chorizo, albondigas, jamon, and empanadas. All were delicious. I definitely recommend to try the Jamon, which is one of their specialties. On Tuesdays they have oyster and champagne specials, and on Saturday they have a Paella and Rose special! read more

What can I say? Lol! Definitely a unique atmosphere for a tapas place. Good selection of wine. They had four tables and a bar. I was greeted by a friendly waitress in a flight attendant uniform almost! Then I realized the theme was aviation. I opted for the grilled octopus and the duck breast topped with foie gras! Both were delicious. I was pleasantly surprised. Not a place if you're hungry as the portions are very small (not shareable). If you're in the mood for expensive tapas in a nice setting please don't hesitate to stop here. Ciao everyone! read more

Ambiance- there's a lot going on but I love it! It's got an old school furniture in the second part of the building like you walked back in time.

This Saturday we were visiting Houston, TX and we decided to go to Old Town Spring. This small restaurant has the best Spanish food I have tasted in the USA, I lived in Spain for 17 years and the flavors I found in each dish were as if I were in Spain. We started with a Galician bread that the manager told me that they bring from Galicia directly, Then we met the chef who made us feel at home, we let ourselves be carried away by all his recommendations, the octopus was a soft butter, the beetroot salad is to die for, we also ate the best Serrano ham croquettes and patatas bravas. the wine was also spectacular, and to end the night we ordered a manchego cheesecake that I never imagined eating such a creamy and flavored cheesecake. I'm sure we'll be back to this small and cozy place in TX. read more

They were spot on with service and knowledgeable about the food and more importantly the wines and pairing them. Definitely give it a try if you like wine and Tappas.

Cute atmosphere but the food was honestly HORRIBLE. Tapas took a little to long to come out seeing's how we were the only table. Our servers were switched without explanation. Bravas are the entry to a good Spain inspired meal. The potatoes were undeniably frozen and flash fried. Similar to something Id imagine Denny's would serve. Un seasoned. Dressed with refrigerator temperature sauces. The croquettes were good. The only saving grace to this meal that we ended quickly. The crab meat piquillo peppers were room temp at best. I'm glad that's where we stopped. Didn't finish what we did order ( which are small tapas portions , wasn't worth eating ) asked our server what ounces the octopus was and she didn't know. $70 for a meal that felt like a waste of calories if we continued eating. Now searching for another restaurant because we are starving. ! read more

Let's talk delicious! This tapas restaurant is located in Old Town Spring. The restaurant is small in size, but wait they have some additional retail space that they plan on expanding. The ambiance has a nice charming feel with a plane motif. Literally their bar is made out of an airplane wing. How clever can you get. The wall has some meta with beads that resembles a side if a plane. Let's talk food. Since this is a Spanish restaurant and wine bar they serve tapas. Think small bites with Spanish fusion. It's a little pricey for small bites/tapas but I promise the food options we tried were delicious. It's worth the price. We had a beef empanada which had a nice flakey crust. The order came with two empanadas so my hubby and I had one each. Again think small. It came with a nice chimachurri . This was my favorite. We also had a chorizo croquette. This has a nice flavor explosion when you bite into this tapa. Think small hush puppy, lightly breaded. Inside you have the chorizo sausage with a nice sauce inside the ball. They were positioned in the plate with a nice dip. Nice fusion again small but a nice flavor. Ladies if you want a nice wine drinking experience you have to come here after a morning of shopping. They have a nice wine list by the glass or bottle. The amazing Thomas Perez was super personable and helpful. He is one of the partners and a wine enthusiast. We'll be back! One of the better experiences in Old Town Spring. My new favorite places to visit! read more
