Best place to have a quiet dining experience. Phenomenal food and service. The rating menu with wine pairings was out of this world!

Getting together with old friends

What a wonderful evening it was at Taberna del Alabardero! The food was excellent and so was the service. We felt pampered. Thank you so much for making our celebration special.

Food is great. Pulpo was cooked perfectly. Formal enough for a business lunch, but not stuffy. Will be back

Great food, service and experience!

Outstanding ambiance, down to earth sophistication, authenticity and and highest quality of preparations, presentations, extremely responsive service, cosmopolitan vibe, quiet elegance. By far the best spanish cuisine in DC. and the place to be.

The food and the server was outstanding, we made outdoor reservations to hear some of the Flamenco but we were seated outside but it was almost in the street not even under the awning, we felt like outsiders. Our server Saul made us feel very comfortable but disappointed with the seating.

My girlfriend and I went here to celebrate 6 months together and Taberna truly delivered. The staff made our night so special.

Such a fun dinner! The dancing on fridays and Saturdays is so fun. Definitely felt transported to Spain that evening!

Excellent experience - was just a little too warm inside.

A very beautiful restaurant! Great staff. Food was delicious and plentiful.

Excellent food, great wine options, great service, not super quiet ambience but far from being annoying. Recommended.

Me encanta este restaurante. La comida es rica y ser en muy bien

Great service! We had a lot of fun and my friends and I loved the outstanding food here!!

The flamenco show was exceptional and a really good complement to a delicious dinner.

This restaurant is for special occasions for our family. We save up to enjoy a meal here. Another lovely dinner and family celebration. We are so delighted to have found Taberna del Alabardero!!

We had a family celebration of 5 members. My mother is an Alzheimer’s patient and she was delighted. Enjoyed the ambiance and the food as much as the rest of us. The wines was great and so was the paella, the cod fish and the lamb. The Serrano jam... well as always the best. The Spanish music gave a additional touch to the celebration. We can not wait to have another moment to celebrate and bring our family together at La Tanerna del Alabardeto!! Gracias.

Had a fabulous evening great food, service and the flamenco show topped it off

My husband and I had a lovely evening. The food was quite good and the service excellent

Excellent food, atmosphere, and service. We will be back.

Outstanding food and ambiance for celebrating 55th anniversary!

Highly recommend! Such a good atmosphere, delicious food, attentive and friendly staff.

My partner has Celiac disease and we were pleasantly surprised to find that they offer gluten-free bread service and are knowledgeable about which dishes are safe for those who are allergic to wheat gluten. Delicious meal that reminded us of trips to Spain. Ask for Antonio.

Lovely food—just the right amount of attentiveness from the wait staff.

Awesome, food was awesome, service was awesome , best in Dc

Wonderful meal and excellent service. Thank you!

Wonderful place... the interior design (we sat inside as it was hot outside) was lovely and perfect for what I would hope for given it was a couple of blocks from the Whitehouse in DC (1800's coolness). I had been to Barcelona for a few weeks in the past and the food reminded me of the places we would eat at in Barcelona (tapas are a fav of mine).

The staff was lovely as well... attentive, fun... And, this place was tapas but very upscale as well... we all loved it (my mom and my husband) <3

The food was excellent, different -- in a good way. The entertainment was outstanding -- Flamenco music! Servers were efficient and helpful. We'll be back.

Great food and service! (Please put on the AC however…a tad toasty!)

It is a great Spanish restaurant, probably the best in the USA

Professional, knowledgeable, and attentive service. So refreshing to have tablecloths and servers in suits. The Salmorejo soup is amazing! Strong wine list. Like a visit to Spain

Impeccable service. Good food. Expect to drop $100 without alcohol.

Somos clientes desde hace mas de 10 años y en cada biaje a DC incluimos una visita al Alabardero

Love this place. I met my colleagues for the 1st time an the service and foos was incredible

The waiter asked us if we wanted Sparkling water or regular water. They've never specified tap water. They charged us for 2 bottles of water $12. This is not the first time it happened to us at this restaurant, but I haven't been in a while and I forgot about it.

We went for Father's Day, and my husband asked for meat, it was well cooked, but the quality of the meat wasn't good, it was hard meat. $50 plates, need to have an excellent quality.

The staff is very well trained, they courteous, but not very nice.

I've regretted spending the $200 at Taberna. We moved to D.C in 2008, and their food back then was incredible, last time we went as a family was probably 3 years ago, and the food was just OK. We thought it was just that day, but we the experience yesterday, I am sure, I won't give it any more chances to go back.

Bronzino very good. Solomillo not remarkably good, rather hard to chew. A pitty! We expected more from it.

This is where my wife and I go to celebrate special occasions. Been so for over twenty years!

Great authentic Spanish restaurant. We had tapas tonight. Have been here on several occasions. It's a go to place for your Spanish food.

Great good and service. Authentic Spanish restaurant.

Great food and excellent service. Love the variety in the menu
