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!

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.

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!

We decided to pop in and grab a snack after a day on the town. This place is fantastic! We ate a few tapas, drank beer and wine, sat outside on their patio. The server was amazing and the service was top notch!! I absolutely love this place!

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.

Nice little Spanish bodega in Georgetown. Their Paella was really good. The food and service was good.

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

Awesome restaurant located in Georgetown, D.C. I had a great experience with the delicious food and the service was very good too. Our server Melvis gave my family the best service ever! He was very attentive and super friendly! Will definitely be back. A must go if you're in the D.C. area 😉

Went here for a work meeting and had a great time! The staff were very kind and attentive and helped us get seated as a large group.

Delicious plates. Specifically loved the salad and the paella. Had a great time here!

Lovely place to stop into for an early afternoon drink, and make plans for the evening. Their cava sangria was a delight, but the highlight was the manager, from Morocco. She took our reservation for dinner, at lunch. When we arrived for dinner, she insisted we have the best table in the restaurant, and that's where they took us. Afterward, course after course of delicious tapas arrived with great service from the staff, and with special attention from the manager/owner, herself! Great food, great service, great manager! We were too stuffed to try the paella, but the presentation looked delicious! The cafe con leche was a great way to end the meal! A must in Georgetown! Seasonal Mushrooms, Spinach with Pine Nuts and fruit, and roasted pepper with artisanal breads and Spanish olive oil highly recommend! These, and the fantastic cheese course were tops for Spanish vegetarian fare, which can be hard to find. My fiance's meat choices looked equally as great!

My wife and I had a wonderful lunch here today. On a cold rainy Saturday, walking the damp icy streets of Georgetown we stopped in as the over rated saloons were slinging cliche egg dishes and boring sandwiches. The bartender was on point and made some very good recommendations. The Gambas and octopus were fantastic as was the pimento stuffed with short ribs. This restaurant knows how to properly serve seafood as it came out hot but perfectly cooked. The place has a cool design including the restrooms that share an open wash room with beautiful copper sink top and fixtures. There is a mix of table, bar and lounge seating. I would highly recommend this place.

The food was good but the service left something to be desired. I hate when a wait staff hovers. I felt pressured by our waiter. I felt like he was back every 5 minutes to see if we were ready to order. I know some people like that but we don't. We had our teenage who had never been to a tapas restaurant before so we wanted time foe her to peruse the menu and ask us any questions and I swear the waiter was on top of us every timr we looked up

Cannot believe the higher ratings here. All I can guess is they are all from out-of-townets or locals who have never been to Jaleo. OR ANXO, OR Estadio ...ANY any which are infinitely better than this place on their worse respective days. I had over cooked salmon over a bed of chopped jarred olives, lentil with chorizo (a paltry single medallion), and a huge serving of mediocre sautéed mushrooms- they would been better served with a portion 1/4 the size and used better and more interesting mushrooms. The bread and olive oil were good. My meal was a "Lunch Exprress" which was a choice from three tapas list for only $16.95. I dearly wish I had spent more and gone elsewhere. The only thing even worth finishing was the soup. Avoid.

I've been going to this place for years. Great place for true Spanish Food! I've spent a lot of time in Spain and the food at Bodega is spot on. Wish there were six stars because this place is excellent! Highly recommend all of their paella dishes and red sangria.
Joyce S Valdivi
I used to love this place for its paellas but now I came back after years and the paella was not good as it used to be, and the service questionable, The decor is nice but that's not enough to like a place. Disappointed.

Chris Harris
Couldn't get in our first choice, but we stumbled on this gem. Great Tapas. I wanted to have paella, but it's only served for 2 or 3, and everyone wanted Taps. Wonderful food and great service. We'll be back!

We had a big party and let's just say we were there for over 2 hours. I'm pregnant and not once did someone come around and give any re-fill on water. No one even offered. They got a couple orders wrong and brought food we didn't order and then charged it to the table.
Mamicela Morrell Diaz C
Good ambiance, the food is fenomenal and good prices. I give them 💯 👍🏼
Clare Buchanan
I liked the decor and the atmosphere, the food was lovely, however service was slow despite several waiting staff walking past is several times and us looking at them- we felt ignored! They also didn't have churros on the evening menu which we had been looking forward to greatly, even ordering less to leave room for them.
