Sangria Tapas

1033 MacArthur Blvd, Mahwah, NJ 07430

Found this place online and choose it sight unseen to meet our friend Jenn G.  It is somewhere in the middle between us. Were (wrongly) a little worried about the strip mall location... Our own prejudice.  We made reservations for opening time and laughed that we did not need to. WRONG! the place was packed before we left with a couple large groups and several tables with families. The staff was friendly and attentive, the selection was extensive, and the food was delicious. Be sure to stop here if you are in the area.

Notes




The great part of tapas is that you get to order LOTS of small plates!

Pan con tomate (Spanish bruschetta) and Olives to start
