Despite the restaurant’s name and their atmosphere, Albariño ultimately falls short when it comes to delivering on its core promise: tapas. True to its namesake, I was expecting a wide variety of small, shareable plates that allow for a diverse exploration of flavors. Instead, the majority of the offerings are composed of larger entrees, and the handful of tapas-style dishes on the menu lack the creativity and vibrancy that one would expect from a restaurant of this genre. In terms of drinks, their bartenders do a great job and offer lovely cocktails along with wine pairings. Also, their menu recently changed and they took off all of our favorite items. The last time we were at Albariños, we were disappointed by lack of flavor in every single dish.

Albariño exceeded my expectations with its mouthwatering paella and exceptional happy hour offerings. The intimate ambiance makes it perfect for social gatherings.

We had my sister in-law’s baby shower at Alborino. Food, service and decor couldn’t have been nicer for 40 guests. Everyone raved about the restaurant and food. I would go back to Alborino for a party or casual dinner anytime.

Badly made food, well let me say that the clothes are in bad condition, they don't wash the containers that have the food well, they don't clean the restaurant well, it has all the vomit inside, they have cockroaches and even mice

The fried squid had no flavor, the shrimp sauce was tasteless, it only tasted like canned tomato sauce, the pizzas 🍕 were delicious, but the tapas not so much.

6*s! It's all fantastic - food, the staff, the place, and the menu is clearly marked for gluten free and gf available items and there are PLENTY of them including some fried calamari which were excellent.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and gf available all over the menu.

We really enjoyed our meal at Albarino. We ordered 6 tapas dishes (to share) and that was plenty for 2 hungry adults. I also had a flight of Albarino wines (3 small glasses for $19) and I enjoyed them all very much. Service was excellent. Noise level was what I'd expect for a popular restaurant, even though it was just a Tuesday night (it was busy). I'll be back for sure.
Tapas are great (5 star). While Seafood paella lacking - v dry and no flavor. None. Plus, seafood overcooked. Not worth $$. Paella in Madrid set the bar high but this paella is below low (1 star). Tip: Stick with the tapas & pass on paella!

First off, our server Kyanne was great! So friendly and attentive. Calamari was light and crispy, wild mushroom pizza was delicious. Ensalda mixta was my favorite. Can't wait to go back!

We sat at the bar and had some tapas and drinks. The bartender was very personable and our conversation with her added to the experience; It's so refreshing when you have a bartender that truly connects with the patrons sitting at their bar. The steak was a bit fatty.

The empanadas were absolutely delicious. Food came out quick and my server Kyanne was amazing. I recommend this place for great service food and atmosphere.
Really nice, lowkey spot for tapas and drinks.
