We had dinner at Boqueria last Friday, and it reminded me why I keep coming back. There’s always such a great vibe! ... The croquetas were crispy and delicious, the salt and pepper squid was perfectly cooked, and the pan con tomate was simple but full of flavor. ... chuletón. It was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly.
Really friendly service, nice terrace and perfect tapas to share.
We had an amazing experience with Boqueria. We had a quick tappas meal before the movies. We enjoyed it so much we are definitely coming back. The food, the service, the atmosphere. Everything was exceptional. Warmly recommended.
Authentic tapa experience. I wouldn’t dare to try other so called tapas restaurants in the area. This is the best.
