Bodega Spanish Tapas & Lounge

Best Spanish food I’ve had so far in DC! Starting off with the tapas I strongly recommend the pan con tomate & jamon, patatas bravas, lamb chops, and croquetas. These were all incredibly flavorful and a must try. As for the paella I had a small issue with the chicken and chorizo as the chicken had a strong odor & taste unfortunately it didn’t taste that fresh other than that the rice and chorizo were excellent. The paella marinera is definitely better choice if your deciding between which one you want. The service was also excellent so no complaints in that department. While the bill did end up being quite pricey it’s hard to find Spanish food for much less. I definitely recommend you driving out to Georgetown to give it a try!

I visited this amazing restaurant by chance. A friend and I were looking for a place to eat after being at a rooftop for an hour waiting to try to order some food. We ended up choosing this place due to their variety of plates and flavors. We had an amazing evening. From start to finish the service was great, we asked if it was ok to order a paella, as the restaurant was about to close in 45 min, the server told us it was more than ok and glad to place the order. We noticed the restaurant carries a special from Sun-Thru 1 cheese board, 3 tapas, 1 paella and 1 dessert + 50% off wines. Food was so delicious, with every bite I was truly surprised with the exquisite taste and flavor of every plate. I highly recommend this restaurant, one of the best I have been to in Georgetown and Washington DC. Shout out to our server Melvin for giving us such a great treatment and taking care of us. Will definitely come back! Happy holidays!

Great serving sizes and flavor. The ambience is just what you can expect for a tapas place. All the tapas came out super fast, tasted very fresh and were just the right amount. The complementary bread was also very good. Looking forward to trying the paella here next! Definitely recommend stopping by.

With a reservation on a Saturday night, we were seated right away and food started coming out quickly! The paella takes 30 minutes to cook so we ordered it right away with our drink order. Everything was fantastic and the portions for the price were solid for the US. For four people, we each picked two tapas and shared one paella, and that was the perfect amount of food. Stand-outs of the evening were the paella, muscles - they were so delicious that we even took the leftover sauce home with us - tuna, and croquets.

Fancy restaurant, they serve tapas in a Spanish atmosphere. Went with a friend on a Saturday night, it looked busy but my food came fairly fast, i had some overpriced salmon with a scoop of potatoes. Sangria was good and made me tipsy quite fast. I appreciated the customer service, they were all friendly . It’s a good restaurant in Georgetown
