Tapas we’ve been loving for years include goat-cheese-stuffed red peppers, crusty bread rubbed with tomatoes & layered with thinly sliced Manchego, a textbook gazpacho, & warm dates wrapped in bacon.

Be sure to stop by on Wednesday nights when flamenco dancers transport you to Spain over plates of tiny tapas. Try the eggplant flan or eel with shallots for an exotic snack, and don't forget sangria.

Washington Post food critic Tom Sietsema always fit in house-made chorizo on mashed potatoes, a perfect Spanish omelet, and garlicky shrimp.

Bacon-wrapped dates are amazing. Also try the white wine sangria for something a little different.

I've been coming to Jaleos for 17 years...even did a promotional commercial for them and have known Jose Andres for almost 15 years. The food is consistently fantastic and the staff is amazing!

Make sure you eat the apples out of your sangria. Feeling a little loopy is amazing

Head's up...the Penn Quarter location of José Andrés' Jaleo is due for a facelift in the coming months. So stop in and enjoy the lengthy tapas menu now.

Complement a glass of sangria with Ibérico ham, croquetas served in a shoe and, of course, a variety of paellas served in pans that feed six or more. [Eater 38 Member]
