My father and had a wonderful dinner for his birthday here. The cocktails were top notch, and every plate we ordered was fantastic. We'll absolutely be returning!

Circa 81 has an excellent cocktail menu with a variety of drink offerings. The staff is always very friendly and efficient. Great menu and the food is always delicious. One of our favorites that we frequent often.

Excellent tapas, as always. Gambas (garlic shrimp) are a must. Great service from Becca B.
Jon and Penny
Fantastic Customer Service-from Reservation to Check, Excellent Cuisine Options and Cocktails (Ginger Martini)!

I always enjoy coming to Circa 81 with my husband, sometimes including family and friends. The food and service are exceptional! The menu is varied so that there's something for everyone. I'm looking forward to coming back again soon!!

We stop here whenever we can when we're down at the beach. The food is always incredible and the quality very consistent. They have the best seared tuna on the coast! Everything is great and we will continue to go back over and over again.

Food was delicious! Our server Phillip was exceptional! Phillip was friendly, attentive and helped us with suggestions for our dinner. We will be back again soon!

My visiting girlfriend and I love to go to Circa for one of our meals out. We try to hit the special martini night and enjoy those and tapas items. Last night did not disappoint! We capped off the evening with chocolate creme brulee. Garrett welcomed and seated us right away and Jared was a wonderful, attentive server. We will be back for her visit next year and I will certainly be back all throughout the year.

Great place to share a drinks and a meal with friends.

We took our neighbors for their anniversary. Had all Tapas. The she crab soup, pork belly, stuffed mushrooms were excellent. The fried goat cheese and lamb meatballs left a little to be desired. When we asked for more bread is seemed to take a while. They have added some new dishes to the menu and that's nice. We will be back.
Top Notch Food and Service. It seemed that everyone enjoyed working there. Excellent menu selection of foods and drinks. We made reservations for 1945 and it was busy so recommend making reservations. You won't be disappointed.
Janice
Absolutely my favorite restaurant of all time. We had the salmon bruschetta, mussells, Brie, and pork belly with bacon bourbon walnut cheesecake for desert. My husband loves mocktails and they had a whole menu of them. He had the Mai tai. Make a reservation! It's the only way to get in.

Everything was great. In an area where most restaurants are pushing the price level, Circa 81 remains reasonable value for money. Wide range of menu items.

Unfortunately, my experience at Circa 81 Tapas & Cocktaileria left much to be desired. The standout of the evening was our waitress, who was both knowledgeable and friendly—by far the highlight of the visit. However, the overall experience was disappointing. Despite several open tables upon arrival and same tables open upon departure, my party was forced to sit in a very awkward and uncomfortable part of the restaurant, with staff insisting there were no other options available. The atmosphere was uncomfortably cold, with several patrons visibly affected by the temperature. Service throughout the evening was inconsistent, with long intervals between the arrival of tapas and entrees, minimal engagement from staff. The food itself was underwhelming, lacking the flavor and execution expected from a tapas-focused restaurant. The mixed drinks were particularly poor, with the pomegranate mojito tasting unpleasantly medicinal—more like Robitussin than a refreshing cocktail. If you're seeking great food and well-rounded customer service, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

We had a wonderful evening at Circa 81 today! The food and staff are fabulous! Peter and Jared the reservation host were a pleasure! Thanks for everything! Loved the steak, pork Wellington, and sea food Mac & Cheese Tapas. We even had room for delicious desserts! 😉 The Fox family!
