This place is literally the definition of a "hole in the wall". As we were driving to the place, it seemed like it was in the middle of nowhere. Be aware that parking is pretty tight. But there is a family dollar parking lot across which has some parking available. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you've been transported to Spain. It feels like those little bodegas. So keep in mind the tables are pretty close together. There is a wall that displays all their wines and it's beautiful. They also have a stage and there's flamenco on Saturdays! Our waiter was awesome. It was our first time and we were in a large group of 12. And he was very patient with us. He thoroughly explained the menu to us and answered any questions we had. All the food came out relatively quickly and he was on top of making sure everything was delivered to the table. So menu wise it's a Cuban flare Spanish style restaurant. So think tapas and paellas and some Cuban dishes too like vaca frita. It was a great combo. We went for a bottle of wine and a tabla mixta. The tabla was huge. Great for the price. We added an order of pan tumaca and omg that's a board in itself! Delicious!! We also tried the croquetas mixtas which bring 2 croquetas de jamón y manchego and 2 croquetas de paella! Yes.. you read right, paella croquetas! Of course we had to try it. It actually tasted just like paella lol!! It was quite interesting! I loved it! But the jamón y manchego croqueta was the favorite among the table. We also got an order of chorizo en vino and it was delicious as well. For dessert I got the crema catalana. The taste was perfect. And finished it off with an espresso and that espresso was the highlight. Que Rico! The perfect Cuban espresso! It was a Saturday night so we did get to enjoy the flamenco dancer and guitarist. It was amazing. Definitely recommend checking this place out! But make...
Read moreLa Bodeguita Tapas Steak & Wine restaurant, nestled in the heart of Hialeah, offers a delightful fusion of Cuban and Spanish flavors. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Hialeah for all the delicious food on the menu.
Featuring a diverse array of dishes that showcase the best of both cuisines expertly prepared with fresh ingredients and traditional spices.
For the main course, the restaurant offers an enticing selection of Spanish-inspired tapas and hearty Cuban entrees. My favorite dish here by far is the Loca Frita. It's a nice twist on Vaca Frita (shredded fried beef) with chopped fried plantains, muenster cheese and alioli sauce. You can have a regular vaca frita or even a vaca frita sandwich!
Spanish Milanesa de Pollo is another one of my favorite dishes on the menu. They have a nice selection of steaks and even a extensive seafood options to try. Everything I've eaten here so far has been amazing. If you like Croquetas try them here! Tapas and tablas....Try the crema de natalana

Read moreFor years I've drove by and heard of the food and service at this restaurant. I must have seen this restaurant in the last 25 years and always thought. I wonder if the food is really good there. Well one day the wife and I were looking for a stone distributer for a kitchen project. After traveling through the city we were hungry and tired. I told her, I have just the place to try. This was our lucky day. We arrived at the location aroud 3 pm. The place was occupied by many patrons who seemed to enjoy the ambience. Once seated we started with the mix drinks that were tasty, even for a non drinker. We had the corn as a starter and that just flew right in our tummies. The taste and flavor were great. We moved to our main dish and I must tell you I fell in love. Wow. We ate from each other's plates to take in the different flavors. Well the verdict is. You must go and try it for yourself. I plan on splitting my time on Saturdays between my New favorite restaurant and the old favorite restaurant. Let me know how it turned out for you guys.
I would recommend you try anything and your company try something else just to take in all the best tasting you can in one sitting. They are famous for their croquetas de Rabo..... the wine selection if plentiful. There is a flair of vintage Spaniard in the restaurant and most of the clients are well dressed and...
