Tapas Restaurants near Renton, WA

“Like other people have said the stand out aspect is the view and the ambience! My husband and I went to the bar to order our drink and go sit by the water, so I can't speak to the table service or the inside. There were only a couple bartenders actually making the drinks, so we had to wait in line for a pretty decent amount of time surprisingly, but the drinks themselves were really good even if they are served in plastic cups! The menu online and printed say that the cocktails options are their fall/winter 2023 ones, so I'm not sure if they haven't released the spring ones yet or what. The ones we did have were good, and didn't seem to fall/winter specific. The One Where We Use Gin 8/10 Hendrix Hall - Autumn French 75 10/10 For the price point, the drinks are more expensive - like you would expect at a cocktail bar, but if you separate the fact that the cocktail is in a plastic cup, it is a really good cocktail! I definitely wouldn't make this a regular spot due to the price point, but it's really nice for an occasional hang after work or if you're nearby! Parking validated. When you originally sign up at the garage, it will seem like they will charge you but you just go to the bar and ask for the QR code to scan and the discount will be applied for up to two hours which is $7 worth“

“Everything!! Well maybe not the licor de hierbas. I’m gallega, A Coruña, and I went to try it out anticipating it was not going to be good or authentic. I have to admit I was very wrong, I loved it! Highly recommend it and surely be back. Thank you Pilar for giving me the flavors of my childhood!“

“Decent Thai food at regular Seattle prices. I got the pad thai and chicken satay to go (for a park picnic) and had plenty of leftovers for a second meal. Utensils seem to be on request.Pad thai was the sweet tamarind type, chicken satay was a bit tough/hard and I could have used more peanut sauce, but that may be personal preference.The restaurant interior looked neat and I would go again to dine in.“

“Absolutely gorgeous venue with incredible staff! I got the Shades of Bae cocktail, and it was amazing! If you like fruity drinks, you have to try it! The view is absolutely amazing! I would recommend going in the spring or summer to enjoy the outdoor seating. There are heaters outside, but not all the tables have heaters connected to them. Staff also provide blankets if you ask, which was super helpful!“

“We went there before going to a concert and the food was SO GOOD IT WAS AMAZING. I highly recommend the poke bowl or the chicken yakitori. Their fish was so delicious and their greens were so fresh. Their service was very nice and the place had a very nice chill vibe. LOVE this place absolutely going again!!“

“I met up with a couple of girlfriends for some lunch on a Saturday afternoon. At 1:00pm there was a short wait, but you can walk around neighborhood while you wait and they will text you when table is ready. They said there was a 20 minute wait, turned out to be only 10 minutes. Our Server was legit! She knew about every item on the menu in detail, and even explained why certain items went better in some dishes than others. For example shredded chicken vs chunks of chicken. Anyhow I had a hibiscus iced tea. Dang, it was so delicious, lightly sweetened with a small amount of agave syrup. My friend had the bowl, wow it looked so good!! She said it was amazing! I had a fish Taco that was so good. On a scale of 1-10 I give it a 10. They serve in-house made fresh corn tortillas!! The fish can be breaded with Panko or just grilled. I choose the Panko at my server’s suggestion. You can order 1-3 tacos for a set price and I guess add more if you want. She offered a small side of lime cilantro rice with black beans to accompany my Taco! I am happy that I did because it was the perfect amount of food.I absolutely loved every bite of everything I ordered and some of my friends food too! I can’t wait to go back and try more stuff that sounded so good. On that note my only complaint would be trying to decide what to eat, when every item on the menu sounded so good. It was truly difficult picking just one dish!! Did I mention our server was an absolute treat! I wish that I could recall her name. Every step of the way she was there when we needed her and super knowledgeable on everything on menu, super helpful, cheerful and our service was impeccable!!Did I mention that I cant wait to go back ASAP and eat my way through the menu?? Dang, just writing about it is making me hungry ?I better go eat something. Hope this review helps! I am very sincere in all that I wrote and I swear I am not being paid to write about this little gem of a Restaurant, with amazing food!“

“Love this concept. I think it needs more beer options . But other than that it was super cool and a great time. The happy hour flat breads were very good. The seating was very comfy. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. Everyone seemed genuinely happy for us to be there. A note for first time goers that drink beer. If you are getting beer I'd recommend just doing 4 oz pies to try. Trying to get just a bit to taste just racks up the cost . Make yourself a flight and if you really like one go back for a full cup.“

“Hot Off The Grill! Stop by @ciudadseattle for some delicious Mediterranean inspired tapas. Located South of Seattle in the Georgetown neighborhood you can this buzzing restaurant. They offer a variety of starters and small plates plus their grill-able items.•We started with some fresh hot flatbread with hummus, labneh and baba ghanoush. I really enjoyed the labneh! The roasted beets were beautiful and looked almost like ahi poke ? tasted amazing too! The saffron cauliflower was packed with flavor. The hanger steak was the star of the show! Make sure to get chimichurri and black garlic aioli sauces! The octopus was grilled perfectly. Can’t go wrong with @ulisfamoussausage sausage. Have you visited before?“

“We've always enjoyed coming here. I love the sparkling wines and have purchased some to take home. Desserts and charcuterie boards are also delicious! I think for more of a wine bar/chic vibe, I'd recommend some bar top tables set up, for a more relaxing atmosphere. The lower tables makes me feel like it's a sit-down dinner place. But overall, I'm a repeat customer especially when trying to just relax with a nice glass of bubbly in hand“

“Randomly discovered this spot yesterday. Had drinks with my husband here and it was super cozy. The wine list is excellent and Tomas was very helpful! He will take care of you.We'll definitely plan to return.Also if you are lactose intolerant like I am, plan to bring Lactaid. They are dairy heavy. ?“

“Ordered this on Uber Eats to have a quick bite at my hotel while in town. I was a little worried on how this would travel but was pleasantly surprised that it came hot and secure. I ordered the Korean Fried Chicken (KFC) bowl with sweet garlic chicken and added an over easy egg and a side of Napa kimchi (not my favorite). The chicken was super tasty but wish there was a little bit more in the bowl. It also came with spicy pickles (amazing!) and a creamy sesame sauce (YUM), which went perfectly.“

“Small, cozy neighborhood tapas restaurant serving delicious, albeit expensive, small plates. Ironically, the extensive wine list is very reasonably priced – especially the Spanish labels – which might help take the sting out of paying as much as $29 for a plate of octopus. The food itself, however, is consistently top-notch, however, arrives quickly, and service overall is friendly, timely, and attentive. This was our second visit and we’d definitely return, if only for a special occasion.“

“Stumbled upon this gem on the way to the airport. Diego welcomed us in as if it were his living room and showed us true hospitality. If his amazing hosting wasn’t enough the authentic Latin food filled a craving we had been missing greatly since moving from south Florida. Highly recommended! We had the Piccadillo empanada, Cuban, black beans and rice (my sons favorite) and sangria! Chefs kiss and an extra special shout out to Diego who takes it to the next level.“

“The pad Thai was really good, I got it with tofu. It was expensive but I was able to make 2 meals out of it because the portions were generous. Very good Thai , I ordered delivery so I don’t know how the atmosphere is but I would order it again. I should also mention it was a fast delivery.“

“Miles is amazing. Raspberry margarita is Miles specialty. The experience at habitant is similar to service I have experienced at a five star hotel. I haven’t had a better cocktail in my life. Maria is wonderful manager and I truly felt at home.“

“I absolutely loved the vibes in this place! It was like speakeasy meets hip NYC bar. Dark and moody with wall covered mirrors and a really cool bathroom. The food was quite tasty, and the wine was delicious. Their happy hour goes super late, which was a happy surprise because it's usually like 2-4pm in most places. We arrived very late and their kitchen remained open along with happy hour which made everything even better. Service was also terrific, our waitress was very attentive and helpful when we were indecisive. On top of all of that, it's very reasonably priced. We were a party of three, we all had drinks, dinner, and dessert and it was under $100 which is a rare occurrence in Seattle. I highly recommend this place!“

“I am absolutely in love with Princess and Bear Winery! As a member of their wine club, I have had the pleasure of working with their incredible wine concierge who is always so helpful and knowledgeable. The free wine tastings each month are a wonderful perk, and I am always excited to try the latest selections. The wines they select are like stepping into something French and fabulous, with rich and complex flavors that truly transport me to the vineyards of Bordeaux. I highly recommend Princess and Bear Winery to anyone who loves great wine and exceptional service. Thank you for making my wine journey so delightful!“

“found a little gem near work. this place has a great selection of lunch menu including burgers, pasta, soup and salad all freshly made. tried the dijon chicken pasta and i ended up licking the bowl clean.forgot to take pictures of the food but outside is a nice courtyard with apparent hatred towards corgis...“

“Went here for a team dinner. Food, service, location - everything was great! We got a bunch of stuff. My favorite were their flatbreads, fried chicken, some fish with cheese, dates and veggies. Drinks were really good too. I got the pisco sour. A lot of my colleagues got wine, old fashioned, mojito etc. everyone enjoyed their drinks. Desserts- loved their chocolate cake and ricotta cake. Bread pudding wasn't really a bread pudding. All in all this was a great experience. I'll definitely recommend“

“Came here for dinner recently with a friend and had a great time! Our waitress was very friendly and patient (took us awhile to figure out what to order). The food was good, a little pricy b/c the portions are tiny but that’s kind of normal now. About $180 for two of us to dine out, we split 4 things and had 2 glasses of wine. All the food was great but small portions for the same price as other places with much larger portions. Scallops were the smallest I’ve ever seen in my life LOL but delicious! The Asian fried chicken bites were kinda dry and meh but the sauce that came with them was bomb.“

“Fantastic experience. The cocktails were very fun and delicious. I had the Long Thailand Ice Tea that was strong and creamy. Very good. The patio seating was very nice and had a covering so no need to worry about weather. My food was so rich and decadent.“

“Love that reservations are available. Sunday brunch was super yummy. Filipino breakfast passed muster with my Filipino husband, was delicious. Gluten free options always a gold star for me. Coffee was A+. Not the friendliest service, but also not unfriendly, so I guess it depends if you care about that kind of thing. Most importantly all the food was very well prepared.Dietary restrictions: Lots of options for dairy and gluten issues.“

“Great place, love it since the moment I walked in. Great staff, she was amazing, above and beyond thanks for great service! I loved the breakfast sandwich that I got And my coffee yum yummy, Great place. Definitely I’ll recommend it and come back.“

“Had a visit while staying in the hotel. The place is not too large but cozy enough for a drink or teo. The outdoor area is the place to be. The cold windy weather was “helped” with an oudoor on table fireplace. The view itself not too bad, Puget Sound waterfront was a bit blocked by few tall buildings, but sure a visit won’t hurt.“

“Stopped by here for dinner after being in the city for the night.. Seemed like one of the best crowd pleasers for our larger group.. It is located more or less in the mall with the patio on the sidewalk.Excellent happy hour prices and menu, which we all appreciated. Ordered largely off of that. Drinks were standard, food was I would say average and unremarkable..Service was excellent and attentive, which is also more noticeable in a larger group.Above average experience with nothing coming out exceptionally positive or negative.“

“Excellent bar with a nice vibe. Even though it is in the AC Hotel, I would still come here just to get a drink. The bartenders are excellent, and the folks around the bar enjoy the ambience of it. They close at 10:00p on Friday and Saturday. Apparently it's a budget measure, because it's a work hotel. As I pointed out to them, experience is experience. AC has a rep. I stay at hotels where I cross into the weekends. There is no bigger drag than to be someplace that offers a good bar, only to find that it's shuttered to save a few cents at a hotel with reasonably high enough rates. Then you have to go out and find someplace else far less convenient, and often not nearly as nice. We had some exceptional cocktails, and their inventory even offers your "straight" drinkers some nice options.“

“The food is ok. Nothing extra ordinary, but its really difficult for me to understand why they add 18% tips by default. Even for group of 4 or just one person for that matter. Price of food really on higher side with minimum quantity. Another thing is you cant split a bill. So on one table they only accept one credit card. This place is not for celebrating with friends for that reason.“
