Loved this place! Our server Samantha, made it the best. Food was outstanding. Try the sparkling sangria and prosciutto wrapped dates w/feta. Potstickers, cevichi, and tuna were great. Tapas and a lively atmosphere. Don't miss the bread pudding.

Outstanding service and even more delicious food! Had a fabulous date night here with my husband we ordered two plates at a time (Beef short ribs were soo yummy) and for dessert we got some banana pudding dessert with espresso and a macchiato. Will return for sure!

This place is a GEM. Not far from the bustle of Duval Street, but it might as well be 100 miles away. It’s so quiet, and the service and food show care and attention to detail. We tried multiple salads, hot and cold tapas, and dessert, and every single item was top notch. Maya was our server and an absolute delight. You want to visit this place!

Here's a polished and engaging version of your positive review: Great food and a refreshing dining experience! I really enjoyed the small portion concept! it was a nice change of pace! It lets you try more dishes, slow down, and truly savor the flavors. Plus, you feel satisfied with less food, which is a bonus. The portion sizes are reflected in the prices, making it a great value. I’ll definitely be back! *I was so caught up in enjoying the meal that I forgot to take more pictures! This last piece of bruschetta is all I managed to capture, but everything was absolutely delicious!

Amazing place to try different things. We had the bread service, fresh ceviche, French onion soup, croquettes, quesadillas & short ribs (not pictured). Our favorites were fresh ceviche, French onion soup, and short ribs.

Found this gem on a rainy afternoon and our server Maya (sp?) Took amazing care of us and we enjoyed some amazing food and bottomless sangria. Highly recommend!

Santiago's Bodega was a fantastic restaurant to chill when you need a break from the persistent hustle and bustle of Key West. It’s elegant and classy and the food was superb! The ambiance is romantic and the wine/sangria flavors were delightful. It’s also located in a quiet area that perfectly matches the vibe inside the establishment. Our waitress, Nikole JJ, was lovely and very friendly, not only walking us through the menu and the special, but also providing us her favorites, which was superb helpful! I highly recommend this establishment if you want a nice and beautiful escape from the wilder flavors of Key West. You won’t regret it (though be advised, it will be smart to reserve to dine).

They get booked up for a reason. Best tasting tapas! We ordered 20 different options and every single dish hit!
