The food was amazing and we had a large group so we were able to sample a large number of the tapas. The next time I'm in McMinnville I will go out of my way to dine at La Rambla!

What a delightful birthday dinner! Traveled from Denver with a group of 7 twenty-something gals to celebrate my birthday and experience Willamette wine country. Wide variety of food with vegan and vegetarian options. Having studied in Southern Spain during university, I had yet to experience a Spanish restaurant stateside that embodied the delicious food (drunk or not) during my time there. La Rambla delivered not only amazing food, it brought back cherished memories. They were super accommodating when I called the night of to change my reservation to the latest available that evening. 4 of us ordered the flat iron steak entree and that took longer than expected, but considering that we were a big group that showed up an hour before closing, it is understandable. Our host, Justin, kept the bread and olive oil flowing so our hanger was kept at bay. Looking forward to dine here next time we come back!

Very good food and service. A little too loud, however, for a romantic dinner. But the name does imply it’s a bar, too.

Our waiter was very helpful with recommendations since we wanted to try too many tapas and needed help narrowing down our options. My husband loves paella (I'm more ambivalent). He thought it was a tad dry, but had great flavor and still enjoyed. We're looking forward to going back and trying more tapas. Considering all the food we tried and the bottle of Rioja, the bill was very reasonable - a good value.

The food was amazing, as always! Service was spot on, very natural timing and she just kept brining tapas as we wrapped up our previous round. It was DELISH!

The dining experience at La Rambla is always exceptional! When I want to share a special occasion with friends, it is our first choice! Food presentation and quality is always excellent. But, without warm and friendly staff, the restaurant would lose it's appeal. I believe our server that day was "Phil"...and he was wonderful. I also want to thank the person who took my online reservation request and was so thoughtful in reserving the front round table for our group. I am not sure if his name was "Justin", but I truly appreciated his call back and honoring my request. Thank you, Pamela Canaday

Delightful! I booked a large party here, for The McMinnville Short Film Festival. Everyone loved it. My only regret is that we don't have a La Rambla in Portland. Love the vibe. Keep up the great work!
