A friend of mine was recommending new restaurants that he had found. One was a place in downtown Riverdale that serves in Spanish tapas. Soon after hearing this, I dined there. I liked it so much that I've come back to Riviera Tapas Bar again and again.
Whenever I asked friends for restaurant recommendations in Annapolis, Maryland, Jalapeños was always on the list. They serve a combination of Spanish and Mexican food, and that includes tapas. Because of the tapas I held off going there until I had a group, in order to get a good sample. I have finally done so.
a bit of an institution in Washington DC. Not only because of the type and quality of the food, as it was one of the first restaurants in the area to popularize Spanish tapas, but also because of owner Chef José Andrés who has gained an international reputation for his humanitarian work.
A great new Asian tapas place with a strong sense of community. Located in Columbia Heights, Queen's English has Hong Kong food at its finest.
A great tapas place can be found in the Reston Town Center at Barcelona Wine Bar. This is a nice place to relax after a flight into Washington, as it is close to the Dulles airport.
