Taberna del Alabardero

Hands down, one of the most unforgettable dining experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment we stepped into Taberna del Alabardero, we were transported to the heart of Spain — the ambiance, the service, the food, EVERYTHING was simply extraordinary. The bar area is elegant yet inviting, and we chose to sit right at the bar where the energy and buzz of the restaurant truly come alive.  The highlight of our evening was our bartender, Jorge — an absolute rockstar! His mixology skills are out of this world, and every drink he crafted was nothing short of perfection. He made us feel like VIPs the entire night, always with a smile and an impeccable attention to detail. His recommendations were spot-on and elevated our meal beyond expectations. The Spanish cuisine was rich, flavorful, and bea

A spectacular dining experience that feels truly Spanish at every turn. The ingredients are fresh, the food is delicious, and you can never get enough. Every dish we had was delicious and i would highly recommend making a stop here. Fantastic place to be.

Everything at La Taberna del Alabardero was absolutely delicious! We started with the patatas bravas, gambas al ajillo and eggplant, both packed with flavor and perfectly prepared. Then came the stars of the night, the mar y tierra paella and the black rice… ufff ufff ufff! Truly incredible dishes, rich, hearty, and unforgettable. If you’re craving authentic Spanish cuisine done right, this place is a must-visit!

Food was amazing. We ordered the Paella which was fabulous. We haven’t had that good of a Paella since we were in Spain. The Sangria was also very good. The service was also top notch. All the staff were extremely professional and welcoming. The vibe was really good too. The restaurant is really elegant and it set the mood in a great way. There is a 20% service charge no matter the party size so that’s something to keep in mind.

I had a great time here last night! The service was very professional, attentive, and the flamenco was great too! The croquettes were tasty. I enjoyed the sangrias and the waiter gifted me a little dessert wine with my flan which went perfectly together. I thought it was sweet that a waitress handed me a rose ☺️Loved the guitar and the dancers, I felt transported back to Sevilla! I recommend this place for anyone that wants a little slice of Spain in DC 💃🇪🇸❤️
