Best Spanish Restaurants in Lafayette

We went to Coqueta to celebrate my niece's birthday. They were not very busy mid-day on a Thursday. Service was exceptional, attentive, helpful, simply lovely. My favorite dishes were the steak, patatas bravas, boquerones, octopus, the beet and kale salads. The Manchego with grapes, grape must jam (?) was delicious, as well as the croquetas de jamon. The cocktails were great. I had one of the gin and tonics (Balta?), and heard good things about one of the Margaritas and the white wine selected by my sister. The Catalan style vegetables with nuts and raisins was good, but I am used to spinach instead of broccoli and would have preferred that. The Marcona almonds were fresh, but very salty. Their menu has something for everyone, though it was a challenge to accommodate the preferences of an 11 year old grand niece who does not like seafood, mayonnaise (aioli on croquetas and by patatas bravas. Look forward to returning.

Food was very good. Empanadas were great. Lomo saltado was done just right. Sangria was just right too! Atmosphere is very nice, casual. Our server was attentive and helpful. Very nice guy! Will definitely go back.

This is a great restaurant, food, service, and atmosphere make it feel both special and comfortable.

Excellent food and service! Wish there was some traditional jamon. Otherwise, awesome happy hour deal.

Delicious tapas; also beautiful ambience and decor.
