Carrying on with Irish tradition, we offer an atmosphere that infuses the alluring and relaxing nature of an authentic Irish social club and the warmth of a Gaelic home kitchen.

    Food was great and service was outstanding. A little issue with needing table moved when we arrived because we could not all fit where we were originally seated. They moved us within 1 minute of sitting down and all was well from there. Delicious food and our chef was extremely entertaining. One of our favorite family food places and we out often so that’s saying a lot.

    This was our initial visit to Bodega Tapas, and we will definitely be back! Nick's service and recommended small plates were excellent, and food presentation, as well as flavor, were wonderful. We may have enjoyed a bit more Serrano ham than was served on that small plate, but the flavor was excellent. Thanks for a wonderful dining experience.
