Went for New Year’s with some friends of mine. Very good food and drinks! We tried a lot of different dishes. I personally really liked the duck wings, the lamb meatballs, and the fried goat cheese balls. They also had a ton of options for vegetarians. There was a really good vegetarian empanada dish. Overall, I spent around $65. Some of my friends spent a bit more or less depending on what they got. Total price was ~$300, but we got expensive dishes and tried a lot of different things along with getting pricy drinks.

Best to take friends or a medium sized group so you can all split and share dishes. Good for double dates maybe too! Even when it was a bit crowded, we were able to make good conversation.

We had a fantastic experience at Tasca and can’t recommend it enough! From the moment we sat down, the atmosphere was great, but the service and food truly stole the show.

Our server, Julianna, was absolutely wonderful. She was incredibly attentive and took the time to explain the menu in detail, helping us navigate the tapas selections with expert recommendations. It’s rare to find a server who is both so knowledgeable and genuinely welcoming.

The Drinks: Perfectly balanced and delicious—the cocktails were definitely on point.

The Tapas: Every single dish we ordered was incredibly tasty. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients, and the flavors were authentic and bold.

The Vibe: A great spot for a date night or a lively dinner with friends. The decor is a bit dated, but the food and service make up for that part.

Looking forward to going back!

One of Boston's hidden gems. Been going here for 30 years and it still nails Spanish tapas. Seriously authentic food here. They stick the landing on basics like the tortilla espanola all the way to standouts like the rabo de toro. The prices are fantastic. The service is always friendly, swift and attentive. GREAT place to go with a group. Just order your way down the menu. Very good with allergies.

Usually bring folks visiting from out of town here at least once! Food’s always delicious, servers are great, and if you’re coming during happy hour you get a lot of bang for your buck. Some of our favorites are the gambas al ajillo, the bistec de ternera, and the patatas bravas.

Disappointing experience — not real Spanish flavor.
The dishes lacked authentic Spanish taste. The “setas” were just plain button mushrooms, the shrimp were clearly frozen, and the patatas bravas were overwhelmingly spicy. The croquettes were fine, but serving them with the same hot sauce from the bravas didn’t make sense. The jamón serrano came with oil on top — unnecessary since it already has its own fat — and to make matters worse, it wasn’t even extra virgin olive oil.

We usually arrive at opening time, and are greeted warmly, seated right away. There aren't many patrons at that time. I like the layout and service seems to have easy navigation to our table. This is important for a tapas restaurant as you'll be ordering lots off of the menu once you've had your first taste. Ohh you have to try the grilled octopus sooo good!

After many years thinking about trying TASCA, finally today was the day! From the minute we stepped into the restaurant, we were warmly greeted by the greeter and immediately, Yuliana, our waitress, made us feel at home and among family!

Yuliana’s superb service plus the wonderful food, and atmosphere made us to feel the urge to recommend this great Spanish restaurant to all our family and friends.

Thank you, TASCA! 🙌🏻

Food was delicious but the portions were a bit small for the price compared to other Tapas restaurants, frankly could have been better. Still recommended.

My boyfriend and I dined at Tasca last night and we absolutely loved it! The food was excellent - we ended up ordering more food than we actually needed because it was that good! They are definitely under staffed, but the employees were very friendly and attentive, despite managing multiple tables simultaneously. Tasca would definitely be going into our regular rotations and would love to keep coming back!

Great tapas and great selection of drinks. The service is very cordial taking the time to help and also very fast. We just wish the dining room was not so noisy.
