Bodega Tapas, Wine, and Rum

We chose this for date night and loved it. Really cozy and intimate place. Food was really good. We ordered too much and couldn't enjoy the last few things we ordered but we will definitely come back. The house sangria was amazing as well as the staff.

Outstanding as usual. Great flavors with every dish. We have been going there for years and have never been disappointed, a real gem.

Amazing experience!!!! The team is really friendly and provided great service, the food was incredible but my favorite of all was the location, it's quiet and nice ambience. It was our first time and definitely not our last, we love this place and will be coming back!!

Not to add pressure, but Mary was hands down one of the best servers we've ever had. Had a wonderful time on my wife's birthday.

This critique is not applicable to every diner, but for those of us of us who wish to converse during our meal some people will be deterred by the ambient background noise. Bodega Tapas and Wine may not be ideal for a first date. Otherwise the dining experience is outstanding. Our server was a delightful young lady, and the food and drink is exceptional.

Very good food at a reasonable price for a Mother's Day Brunch Located in a very quaint downtown Wake Forest NC

The whole dinning experienced was fantastic, love the wine, the tapa style and MIA was fantastic lo Thank you for a lovely dining experienced.

This is our go-to spot for exceptional tapas dining right in the neighborhood. This gem consistently delivers on both food and service, making every visit a pleasure. The tapas selection strikes a perfect balance between comfort and adventure. Standouts include the crispy arancini, surprisingly addictive Brussels sprouts, and flavorful Peruvian chicken. The beef empanadas offer flaky perfection, while the lamb meatballs and escargot display the kitchen's impressive range and technique. Behind the bar, the blackberry bourbon smash is a must-try beverage that complements the food beautifully. What's remarkable is the kitchen's consistency – even new menu items maintain the high standards set by established favorites. Combine this with attentive, knowledgeable service, and you have a neighborhood restaurant that elevates the tapas experience from casual dining to something special. For Spanish-inspired small plates that never disappoint, this local treasure has become my reliable recommendation for both everyday meals and special occasions.

Amazing staff and delicious food. Marie at the bar is a wonderful host and made our visit even more enjoyable. The food is delicious, came out at separate times so we could enjoy the tapas without feeling like something would get cold or we were rushed. Can't wait to visit Bodega again!

Four excellent small plates, two desserts, two drinks and a cappuccino. Very nice dinner date!

Don't go for the 845 or 9 PM seating. They really rush you out and bring you all the food at the same time so things get cold. 

This is our favorite place in Wake Forest. It is a truly hidden gem. The service, the food and the ambience Never disappoint. Highly recommended.

Food, service and wines were excellent. We got to taste and share a variety of plates and enjoyed every bite! The crispy potatoes and the Brussels sprouts were my favorite. We also enjoyed cauliflower, Peruvian chicken, gnocchi and shrimp. For dessert, crème brûlée was excellent. Our party of four left with full, happy be.lies.

We appreciated Mary our wait staff and the food was all very good. A table of 5 shared the shrimp, crispy potatoes, empanadas, Peruvian chicken, and the lamb sausage baguette. Plan to return to try so many tempting options. They were very accommodating too regarding gluten free and dairy intolerance.

Lovely restaurant. Service was excellent. Food was delicious. Fun to order multiple tapas and share around the table. Will return!
