The Tasting Room Reviews
We went to this charming looking city center restaurant in its last month of business. It had a great selection of wine, and they were all at half-priced for liquidation. However, the food was mediocre. The menu didn't represent that of a tapas bar, just another Mediterranean restaurant. Very limited selection, nothing tapas-tasting like variety and size (just "double size me" appetizers to share) that was really not very good.

Excellent food and attentive service. If you're looking for a quiet place with great food on Broadway, this should be on your short list.
Ate here for lunch and it wasn't crowded or the noise level was low. Casual atmosphere with nice staff. Food was just ok, most notably the shrimp was way way overcooked in appetizer and pasta. The kale salad was good but lacked enough dressing to moisten the large kale leaves. The octopus was tender and the empanada was flakey. I'd go back and try other things at some point but not a standout place on first visit.
The Tasting Room offers delicious meals such as chorizo flatbread, seabass Mediterranean, and Brussel sprouts. Guests can enjoy generous wine flights and friendly service in a cool upscale Italian atmosphere. The staff is accommodating, and the ambiance is welcoming for both locals and visitors, making it a great spot for a nice dinner experience. This neighborhood restaurant and wine bar provides a variety of scrumptious Spanish/pan-Mediterranean taste treats. While the food, especially the appetizers, were previously highlighted as tasty, recent reviews suggest that some dishes may not meet expectations. The selection of wines remains amazing and well-curated, with some offerings available at half-price during liquidation. The service has been noted as excellent, friendly, and unrushed, and the casual atmosphere adds to the charm of this little spot on Broadway in Burlingame. Even though some recent diners found the food just okay, the restaurant is still seen as a welcoming neighborhood eatery worth another visit.
