Have been here twice and the food is great. Once the service was a bit slow, but I don't hold that against them as they had a large party in the private dinning area.
Would recommend the octopus.
Great atmosphere and the servers are quite pleasant.

Pricey, but flavors are worth the price and amount of food. Seafood here is incredible, as is the service from skilled, knowledgeable and tactful staff. A real gem in Edmonton.

Bodega is the sister restaurant of Sabor, which is my favorite restaurant in Edmonton (and always in the top five according to most lists). Like Sabor, the hardest part is figuring out how to order because the tapas, while delicious, quickly add up. Having had the paella at Sabor, we decided to skip the pricy mains and combine some tapas, an a la carte protein and small charcuterie.
Cod fritters never disappoint and were perfectly seasoned without being fishy. We love the empanadas which you can have with various proteins. (We split beef and lamb.) They are never greasy and always flavorful. Garlic prawns are reasonably large and perfectly flavored without being oily or overly garlicky.
Unfortunately, while billed as a Portuguese restaurant, our visit to Portugal last year kind of ruined charcuterie anywhere else for us because nothing can match the quality of meats and cheeses in Portugal or Spain. However, they do offer a good selection of North American and European meats and cheeses that are tasty but a tad pricey. Still worth it if you enjoy cheese boards. We skipped the meats because they are overpriced by our standards.
As an a la carte protein, we enjoyed the 8 ounce short ribs which were cooked medium with delicious chimichurri on top. While we didn’t order an appetizer this time, we’ve had the mussels and would recommend them along with most others but perhaps you’d skip some tapas and choose a main instead if your budget allows.
Cherry cheesecake is tapa sized but quite tasty. Service at the Ellerslie location is excellent and wait staff are cordial, friendly and offer suggestions as they do on the downtown location. Overall, Bodega is an excellent choice for what it offers but expect to easily spend between $120 to $150 if you want to walk away full and satisfied.

Our waiters were amazing. They were both very attentive to what we needed and were very nice. The food was AMAZING. We ordered the cesaer salad, mussels, clams, calamari, and prawns. I LOVE the peri peri prawns, it is amazing. The service was fast, drinks were great. This is an amazing tapas place where vibes are perfect and service is better. A must try for Edmonton food.
Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options were available and labelled
Dietary restrictions: My mom is allergic to shellfish and the waiter noted it and she was completely fine. I really appreciated that.
Parking: There is a large parking lot across the street or paid street parking that is a little closer. Both are across the street from the restaurant so perfect options.

I am blown away with the kindness this establishment has shown. I was lost and the management came and found me. The smoked pate is to die for, the most exquisite cheese ever made (from countries you may have visited or want to), the best seafood platter, so many choices all on one dish “amazing”. The staff in the casual dining were so friendly, helpful and fun ( in a professional manner of course) to be around. Very enjoyable evening meal all round. I say treat yourself and have a splendid experience. Come on down!
We stopped by for a drink and Alda our server was fabulous. So helpful with drink and menu items. We are so coming back to eat. The menu looked amazing. Alda had some great information on food and drinks. Thank you.
