This was my second visit to Finca. It’s tucked away in a cute neighborhood with a few other businesses. They have a small, inside dining area and a similarly sized patio area. You should definitely plan ahead and make a reservation, if possible. In spite of being seemingly understaffed, they took great care of us and got our food out in a timely fashion. The staff was great! The paella, while not entirely authentic to the paellas I’ve had in Spain, was flavorful, a little on the spicy side, and lacking the common seafood tidbits. However, the chorizo and chicken in the paella were tasty and plentiful. If I want legit paella, I’d prolly go elsewhere but if you don’t know the difference, it’s a flavorful, filling dish nonetheless. Three of us shared the paella along with four of the tapas. None of us left hungry! The tapas we had were the Tosta de Chorizo, the Ceviche, Patatas Bravas and the lamb meatballs. All extremely flavorful, and would definitely recommend each of them. All in all, very pleased with this place! Thanks for a great experience. 👍🏽

I FINCA love this place! First time here with hubby and I’m so glad we took the chance to come out on a super cold night. It’s literally a cottage converted into a restaurant and it’s cute and charming but very tiny so make sure you make reservations first! Loved the Brussel Sprouts and Bravas but the Relleno’s were my favorite appetizer! I’ve never had rellenos stuffed with manchego cheese and then battered and deep fried! So scrumptious! My husband ordered the Paella and although the seafood was good, the flavor was lacking in the rice- next time he’ll try it with the noodles. I had the BEST Scallops and Risotto! Perfectly seared on the outside. It was just packed with so much flavor! I could eat this dish every day! Dessert was delicious as well. The Bread Pudding with the cherry sauce is divine but the Churros with the chocolate sauce was incredible. The churros in Spain don’t really have the cinnamon and sugar on them but I enjoyed this take. The churros themselves were thick yet crumbly and delicate. Absolutely loved this charming restaurant.

Really great experience at Finca! We made a reservation and were seated promptly. The restaurant is VERY small, so reservations are necessary. We ordered lots of small plates and three entrees. We ordered the calamares, croqueta, and coles de bruselas and they were all great. The brussel sprouts were sooooo good! For entrees, we had the paella de Valenciana, costilla (braised short rib), and Vieiras (scallops). Now, the paella was good, the braised short rib was delicious, but the scallops? AMAZINGGGGG! It is SOOOOO hard to get the cook on scallops just right- where you bite into them and they delicately melt in your mouth. Finca achieved just that!!! I have had scallops at plenty of places and they're always slightly overcooked, but not here. PERFECTION! We also ordered their churros and they were the BESTTTT churros I've ever had! Do airy and not overly dense as they almost always are. We will be back, for sure!!

The Finca restaurant, specializing in Spanish cuisine, is a charming place located within an old house, making it extremely cozy. The tapas I tried were delicious, and I really enjoyed that part of the experience. However, I regret to say that the rest of the food did not meet my expectations. The paella, which was one of the dishes I was looking forward to the most, turned out to be quite simple, as did the other dishes we tried. Considering the price we paid at this place, I expected higher quality in the food. The truth is that you deserve more value for your investment. It’s worth mentioning that there were few Spanish restaurants open on a Sunday, which led us to choose this place. Unfortunately, the choice did not turn out to be as satisfying as we had hoped.

Finca is one of the better Spanish tapas restaurants in salt lake!! Their dishes are unique and flavored well and well plated for a good aesthetic. The service was ok, when we got their it started to downpour so it was quite chaotic, I think they handled it the best they could. As for dishes: Croquetas: very delicious, the outside was nice and crunchy and the inside was cooked through. Good dipping sauce. Patatas Bravas: nice spin on crispy potatoes. Great flavoring. Pinchos Morunos: lamb skewers. More like meatballs but yummy. Unique flavor to them. Paella: big dish, was able to take some home for leftovers. I wish the rice had been crispier in some parts but the flavor was good and the chorizo was delicious. I’d go here again and definitely recommend to a friend!

We were really glad we made a reservation to come to Finca! It's so cute and the staff are lovely, so friendly! However, the service is a little loose, our salad was mixed up with our neighbor's salad and we sat a little too long waiting to put in for our next round of food. The wine list is great and overall the food was good. We loved the relleno and tosta de setas. We could have done without the ensalada remolacha, it was missing a bright note. The scallop dish had so much potential to be yummy but the scallops were not cleaned very well (sandy!) and were very over salted. Lastly, the carrot cake was straight up gross. I cannot believe we spent 8 dollars for a tiny, one-note piece of "cake." The "frosting" tasted like cottage cheese to me.
