First time visiting a place like this, and I'm in love. The homemqde sangria was awesome. The lamb chops, Pulpo Gallego, potatoes, and the dessert, cheesecake, and chocolate cake. Amazing. I recommend this place. Also, the fried garbanzo as an entry/appetizer.

My wife and I had an amazing time at Spanish River Grill last night. Our server Gene was a true gentleman and knew his stuff. Food was flawless and the flavors were banging! The whipped feta appetizer and setas (sauteed mushrooms) were perfect! Definitely coming back here again! Thanks

Enjoyable night out at this cozy, mellow restaurant. The ambiance created by music, pleasant servers, and decor gave us an experience to remember. To top it off, the Tapas dishes were all superb--no exaggeration!--leaving such a good feeling on the palate and satisfaction overall to everyone in my party. We will definitely return and recommend this place to others.

Our server was amazing and attentive. We ordered a bunch of tapas and split everything, which all were amazing. We had the whipped feta, shishitos, pork belly, mussels & scallops. All so delicious!

Super cool vibe, excellent service and the food was very good. Favorite dishes were the roasted chickpeas the kitchen sends out ‘as a gift’ and the ricotta, so delicious! Would love to see a greater variety of wine.

I think this might be my 5th time coming here. Usually dine with my wife. I came by myself this evening. I try to sample new things each visit. Everything thus far has been simply incredible. I am not one that frequently leaves reviews, I am just amazed with Spanish River Grills style, food and staff. My server once again was Jillian who described the menu well, made wonderful suggestions and made my delicious dining experience as good as can be. I can't wait to return with my wife.

Delish.Cheaper than flying to Spain for Tapas. Perfect for Brad Pitt and entourage when he makes part of his movie here on Dixie Highway on January 23-29th. Tapas and Wine Baris right down the streetThe braided bartender is adorable kind of like Brad Pitt.Vegetarian options: Potatoes a la espana

Been there a few times, made a reservation which they said they could not find. They sat us at the bar while a table sat empty the whole time.Food was not a good as other
Absolutely our favorite restaurant!!! Love the vibe, the knowledgeable wait staff and the food is spectacular!!!! We love dining tapas, it's such a lovely way to share & try new dishes. The mushrooms & whipped feta are perfect together along with the steak & the empanadas are a MUST try!!! Finish it all off with the warm olive cake!!!!

I was really looking forward to trying their new spot since we enjoyed the old location so much. I went with a friend I haven’t seen in years, made a 5:15 pm reservation to have drinks and catch up. The server rushed us to order and told us she had a 7 pm reservation which wasn’t very welcoming and felt odd since it was early. I told her I had a dairy allergy and she recommended a dish that ended having cheese all over it. Then she recommended my friend and I switch dishes since hers was dairy free but come to find out it had milk in it. I ended up ordering a more expensive dish on the spot, whatever was dairy free.To be honest, I feel like they should have at least charged me the first dish I ordered since this one was on the server. Or at least keep both dishes on the table that had dairy in it for my friend to try since their manager said once a dish comes to table it can’t be sent back.We are local, and we’re so bummed about our experience. We will not be back again. Just go to Third Wave for better quality of food, and much better service/atmosphere.

We were rushed out because our server let us know at 6:00 she had a 7:00 reservation…although the restaurant was completely empty. Soooo yeah that was weird and made us feel very unwelcome. Anyway, it was basically downhill after that to say the least. I’ll spare you the details- but we will not be back and I would not recommend. I was so excited to have an old local spot back in business but it is not even close to the original. Hard pass.

Extremely happy to experience the new location! The 4 of us enjoyed our tapas style cuisine, the server was delightful and so well informed of the dishes. The Chef owners are “available” and very much a part of the ambiance without being pretentious (I love that!). Look forward to more experiences there!
