El Mercat bar de Tapas is a vibrant spot in the Pentagon Row neighborhood, offering absolutely phenomenal tapas that are packed with flavor and perfect for sharing. Guests have praised the cured meats plate, patatas bravas, grilled octopus, and sweet potatoes with yogurt among other dishes as incredibly tasty and satisfying. The short ribs, flat bread, and bacon wrapped dates also received high marks from solo diners. The service is friendly, prompt, and attentive, ensuring that orders come out super fast. The atmosphere is warm and lively, making it ideal for date nights or outings with friends. Drinks are on point, with the red sangria being highly recommended. Happy hour runs daily from 3 pm to 7 pm, featuring reduced prices. While the beer selection is a bit light, nearby options like Nighthawk brewery offer easy alternatives. Overall, this new location is well-suited for a fun tapas night, and many guests look forward to returning to try more of the menu.
