Tapeo

On the busy street of Newbury, you’ll find this awesome tapas restaurant. Tapeo is for people who like adventure and aren’t scared to try something new! Always a large crowd, always a bit of a wait, and expensive, but well worth it. Located: 266 Newbury St.

She Said: Tapeo: Loud, Spanish, Fun, Tapas and Long Waits are some of the words to describe this great place. None the less, it’s a favorite. Tapeo is on the busy street of Newbury, so you’ll always have a wait, no matter what, but it is absolutally worth it. The atmosphere is very nice, the service is great and the food is outstanding! The dishes ordered included Mejillones con Aguacate (mussels with avocado) - very nice salsa. There was a lot of flavor. Pimientos Asados (roasted red peppers) - nothing about it.. no flavor. Gorditas (prunes stuffed with goat cheese, wrapped in bacon) - SO GOOD! these prunes had so much flavor and taste to them. He ate the bacon. Scallops and swordfish skewers, which were just okay…. and for the BEST dish: Tuna STuffed octopus in its own black ink! AMAZING. yeah it sounds gross.. but it is the best thing in the world. I don’t care who you are.. you have to try it.

He siad: Ok tapas are some of my favorite food, I kind of grow up with them, my mom use to make us these treats all the time. Although the selection at tapeo is more of an americanize version you still find on the menu interesting stuff like “Tuna Stuffed octopus in its own black ink” this was great just like she said’s. The service is always nice, I always find some one who speaks spanish so i just feel like at home. In last nights case we had Alberto he is from Columbia and he was pretty cool, he bought us a round of Sangria and a Flan, we usally don’t eat dessert, but I am glad we did it was really good… Thanks Alberto.

So I encourage you to go and try it is a fun place and I am sure with whom ever you go with they will enjoy it as much as She and I did.
