Estragon Tapas Bar: your slice of Spain in the South End. Estragon is owned and operated by Julio de Haro and Lara Egger. Voted Best of Boston 2023 by Boston Magazine! Chef Julio was born and raised in Madrid and his cuisine reflects the fresh simplicity of traditional Spanish fare. Many of the dishes are family recipes, served straight from Abu Luisa's kitchen to your table. To complement Estragon's extensive tapas menu, you'll find a unique cocktail list, a selection of local and craft beers, and an all-Spanish wine list with references spanning both the country's established and emerging wine regions. An evening at Estragon is unlike any other dining experience. The decor-- art deco meets vintage chic-- provides an inviting, sophisticated setting perfect for any occasion.

The wines here are outstanding, and the wide variety of tapas always means you’ll find something you’ll like. We also like the non-institutional, neighborhood feel here.

Esteagon is one of our favorite Spanish restaurants in the USA. The tapas are always excellent. This time we had Jamon ibérico, Tortilla española, Gambas al ajillo, Grilled octopus, and Oxtail. For dessert we ordered a delicious Tarta de queso with berries. Out waiter did an outstanding job.
