Want to go to Spain but don't have the time? Then go to Tasca Brava and enjoy the best of Spain with owners Juan and Marta. I have had the privelege of travelling different regions of Spain and have taken the time to educate myself about the varied cuisine and culture of that great country. I am quite pleased to have part of that culture and cuisine right here where I live. The food is authentic Spanish and nowhere in Spain have I had anything that topped what's available at Tasca Brava. The soups are always delicious and should not be overlooked. All of the tapas are wonderful and I have tried almost all of them. The paella negra is a must, there is really no way to describe it with words alone. I figure that I've been to TB at least 50 times and have never been disappointed and I have always been treated wonderfully. Just like in Spain, if you act like you want to be there they are extremely grateful for your visit. Don't forget the desserts, all prepared in Marta's kitchen, they are a fine way to end your meal. Juan has an extensive knowledge of the wines he carries and he will always lead you to a perfect choice. Try their coffee and I bet you end up taking a pound of it home to enjoy. If you have a taste for fine sherry you should enjoy what's available at TB. It's so nice to have a place like Tasca Brava to frequent. Treat it like Spain, don't rush it, just savor it. Obviously I love this place and it's important to me. If you become a regular there is no doubt that you will feel like part of Juan and Marta's family. They are good honest people with a genuine respect for good food and good people. Just like Spain! Saludos!
