I really enjoy Tapa the World for their sangria and fun, festive atmosphere. My favorite dishes are the empanadas (entree and dessert) and cheese platter. I do find it a bit overpriced and the...

I enjoyed the atmosphere, but was deterred by the poor service and the pricey menu items. The waitress was very non-attentive to us and did not get our order correct (although we got a free item out of it)....

I feel like this place is over-rated. I have been there 3 times; I have always had terrible service there ranging from dismissive to rude. I don't know if the waitresses are overworked or if that is...

I would go here and order a PITCHER of Sangria after work lol. I love their Sangrias and their tapas are decent enough. A little pricey if it is after lunch.

The paella is really good if you have time to wait for it. The sangria is also very good and they have a huge list of different wines. It was definitely a nice change from all the hipster places...

I thought the food was really good there. But, everytime I go there the service seems to get worst. First the restaurant is very small, so it is easy to bump into someone behind you. The menu has a wide...

Yes, it can get very crowded and loud here but it is a fun place to go after a show or before bar hopping. The tapas plates are small but that is precisely because they ARE tapas. Tapas are the very essence of...
