Best Spanish Restaurants in Parkside

My husband and I just celebrated our anniversary here. After perusing so many positive reviews and images of the cozy and intimate interior - not to mention the appealing menu, I made a reservation. Frascati did not disappoint. The owners were friendly, engaging and thoughtful. We were provided a table upstairs that afforded privacy and a wonderful view of the activity of the restaurant. The ambiance was romantic and reminded us of the best osterias in Italy. The servers were friendly, responsive and wildly efficient. The food - absolutely divine. Easily one of the best meals we have had from start to finish. We began with olives and autumnal potato gnocchi. We split the potato leek soup with basil aioli and the roasted pear salad. For main courses, we selected the pappardelle and the filet mignon. To finish, we split the black and white chocolate bread pudding with homemade hazelnut ice cream. We don’t typically eat so much, but it was truly difficult to decide because the menu is so appealing. Every dish stood out and we savored - and finished - every bite. We will be back and I could not recommend Frascati more highly. Thank you for a beautiful and satiating evening!

Sucha. quirky and fun place. The staff was amazing. The food great. We had such a fun evening!

We have dined at Canela Bistro numerous times, but this was our first experience with their prix fixe menu, featuring paella and two tapas per guest. Our group of four enjoyed a wonderful assortment of dishes, and everything was delicious! My two favorites were the gazpacho and the potato and jamón croquettes. The Albariño recommended by our waiter, Mitch, was also an excellent suggestion and paired beautifully with the meal. Canela has a warm, cozy atmosphere while maintaining a professional and welcoming level of service. Mitch was attentive and knowledgeable, and we felt exceptionally well taken care of throughout the evening. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and would highly recommend Canela Bistro. It’s a neighborhood gem that keeps us coming back!

Always a delight to go there. The service is A1. The food is excellent.

Food was delicious, service was attentive, and ambiance was cozy. Thanks Raul and the others for a great experience. Would order the off menu specials again, like the Octopus/Shrimp Paella, Grilled Tiger Prawns, and Kanpachi Crudo
