Paul James 4 months ago
We were invited to dine here with our good friends from KC. Our server's name was David, and he was perfect. The atmosphere was loud, but very comfortable. It was ideal to upscale, but not at all pretentious. We had possibly the best Ceasar salad and sangrias I've tasted. (I don't know the spanish names of the tapas)...we had the potatoes, roasted corn, mushrooms, meatballs, and we doubled up on the tenderloins. Every dish was heavy on. The garlic, and no one minded. Everything was absolutely stellar. The sauces and layers of flavor were nothing short of amazing. Not one thing we ate was a let down. For dessert we had spanish coffee and churros. I'm sorry for not knowing the terminology. All I can say is that the food, atmosphere, and service were all 5 stars across the board, and twice on Sunday.

4.5 but rounding up Paella Valenciana — The flavor was delicious. I especially loved the rice and shrimp. This was my first time to ever try paella so I’m not sure if the ratios were normal. There were only 3 pieces of shrimp in the whole paella (We got a small.) There was plenty of chicken, oysters, and sausage. The chicken was a tad bit overdone but okay. For my own personal preference, I would have liked more shrimp and fewer oysters. Croquetas — Delicious, I didn’t know what to expect, but I loved it. Dates — my favorite! Everything about these was perfect for me. The restaurant itself is very nice. I love the paintings, decor, and the whole vibe. Servers were great! We’re here on vacation, but I would come back and recommend it to others.

Fantastic tapas in KC! The food was delicious - especially the items from the Chef's menu. Service was a bit slow, but we thoroughly enjoyed their outside seating. First time here - will definitely be back!

Stopped in for lunch with a friend after this spot was recommended to me. It was a unique experience with the tapas, but they didn’t disappoint. The chicken skewer tapas & the shrimp tapas were definitely my favorite. The churos were also to die for!!

Went in on a Friday afternoon for happy hour and it’s a great time! The sangria pitcher and the happy plates are great value to sit on the patio in the sunshine! For the two of us we had one pitcher to share and then a few plates. The paps Freitas (fried potatoes) are some of the best I’ve had! The escalavida (eggplant peppers dip with flatbread) also amazing. Highly recommend especially during happy hour. Great vibe.

We had a fantastic time at La Bodega yesterday! They’ve put together a wonderful curated lunch menu for KC Restaurant Week that really captures the spirit of Spain through their decor, lively bar, and vibrant atmosphere. The Tapas sampler for our second course was a perfect way to explore a variety of flavors. Starter: We kicked things off with the House-made Black Bean Soup. It had a lovely tang to it and was a great start to the meal. The Tapas Sampler: 1. Pincho de Pollo con Chorizo: Skewered BBQ-style chicken and chorizo with a garlic cumin aioli. 2. Tortilla Española: A classic potato and onion egg torta paired with roasted red pepper aioli. 3. Dátiles con Jamón y Chorizo: Savory chorizo wrapped in pancetta and finished with a fig coulis. 4. Bolas de Arroz: Crispy, flavorful rice balls. 5. Higos y Queso de Cabra: A toasted baguette topped with goat cheese, roasted peppers, and fig coulis. 6. Brotxeta: Succulent shrimp wrapped in pancetta. Highlights: The Higos y Queso de Cabra (#5), Dátiles (#3), and Pincho de Pollo (#1) were the absolute stars of the show for me—I enjoyed every single bite of those three! To wrap up, the staff recommended the Almond Cake and the Cheesecake. The almond cake was a total hit, while the cheesecake was a decent, though less memorable, finish

La Bodega is outstanding. While the indoor dining experience is attractive, it can be somewhat loud due to the predominance of hard surfaces. The outdoor patio, however, is exceptional—unfortunately, the temperature during our visit was too cold to fully enjoy it. The food is delicious and full of flavor. Every dish we ordered was excellent, with the octopus standing out as a highlight; it was cooked perfectly. Although I did not order sangria on this visit, I highly recommend the red or white sangria for sharing with friends. Overall, we love La Bodega and enjoy dining there!

La Bodega delivered an outstanding dining experience from start to finish. We ordered a variety of tapas to share, and everything was fabulous—both in flavor and presentation. The variety and balance of the dishes made for a fun and satisfying meal. We started with the Papas Fritas, which were crispy, perfectly seasoned, and addictive. The Albondigas Caseras (house-made meatballs) were rich and flavorful, served in a sauce that was perfect for soaking up with bread. The Vieras Romesco (seared scallops with romesco sauce) were tender and beautifully paired with the bold, nutty sauce. The Elote added a sweet and spicy contrast with creamy, smoky flavors that really stood out. The Octopus Pasta was unique and memorable—tender octopus over perfectly cooked pasta with a complex, savory sauce that tied everything together beautifully. Finally, the Dátiles con Jamón y Chorizo (dates wrapped in ham and chorizo) were a perfect mix of sweet, salty, and spicy—one of our favorites of the night. Service was excellent—attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly without being intrusive. The ambiance was vibrant and warm, making it a great place for a relaxed yet upscale evening.
