Best Spanish Restaurants in Tysons

I visited on a Friday night, when there are live l performances. On this night, there was Flaminco music with a dancer. They were outstanding! A great add on to the ambiance. The restaurant is beautifully decorated to the theme and the service is stellar. Everyone was pleasant, attentive and knowledgeable. There are several intriguing options in each section of their robust (but not overwhelming) menus. I did not need the cocktail or wine menus, but I did glance them over. But all of my attention went to the food menu. Everything was fresh and delicious. I had the calamari appetizer, the eggplant appetizer, a salad and paella. That's enough food for 3 meals (I took much of it to the hotel room). It was all prepared to perfection. I also had to go in on dessert, which was also delicious! I might apply for a job there to justify me spending as much time there as I want to! Excellent overall experience!!!

A lovely pre-theatre dinner. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. We opted for à la carte and shared six dishes between the two of us.

We had been wanting to have dinner at Jaleo for the past few years and finally got to go tonight for my wife’s birthday dinner. Let me start off by saying that it lived up to and exceeded our expectations. We had the mid-range tasting menu with the sherry pairing and every bite was delicious. Our experience was enhanced by our server Carlos’ knowledgeable description of each course and each of the sherries. We look forward to coming back.

I was here in the summer for the first time and really liked the food and the service. Walter our server then recommended a really good bottle of wine. I returned this time to celebrate a friends birthday. The hostess who greeted us was friendly and welcoming, and we were seated immediately. I was pleased to see that Walter was our server and again recommended an excellent wine. The food was fabulous. We ordered multiple tapas for our group of five and each dish was excellent. Walter has a great personality and is very knowledgeable about the wide variety on the menu. All our dishes came out in a timely fashion with no delays. The noise level was moderately loud as the restaurant was completely full. The lamb, grilled octopus, peppers stuffed with beef, the cod fritters, veggies grilled with goat cheese , chorizo, papas bravas and the flan for dessert — all delicious. We never felt rushed and left 3 hours later, like the last time. Had another great experience.

This was an experience to remember!! The food was amazing and very well curated. I left not too full and certainly satisfied. I especially enjoyed the iberico and the prawn paella. We had the wine pairing which I can see why they won the sommelier guide, they were uncommon varieties yet and I appreciated the time and care they took to explain each course.
