Food: Lots of hot and cold tapas to choose from and sharing adds a lot of fun and romance. Prices range from $4.50 to $9, which is quite a bit more than what people in Spain pay for, but I love coming here for a splurge. The seafood paella is large and quite filling! Don’t forget to have some sangria.

Atmosphere: The rooms is loud but tables are romantic with dim lighting and rose petals. Last time I was there our table for two was in a small nook. People crowd around the bar or outside since this place doesn’t take reservations after 6 or 6:30 pm.

Location: Parking is not the easiest. There are a few spaces on the street with meters not in effect after 6 pm. It’s an easy 15 minute walk from Harvard Square.

The food here is pretty decent, but certainly not great. The tapas at Taberna de Haro in Brookline are more authentic and tasty. However, Dali is an excellent place to hang out over a few small bites with friends. The ambiance is great – dimly lit and cozy, although a tad noisy.

Consistently excellent. I’ve been coming here for more than a decade and have never been disappointed (although sometimes the sangria is better than others). The wait is long for a reason. The conejo escabejado (braised rabbit) is especially tasty, and the gambas al ajillo (garlic shrimp) are not to be missed.

I thought the tapas were ok, overall good but not excellent. But the environment is great, excellent for dates – cozy tables, dark lighting. Couple that with the excellent wine and sangria selections and it makes up for a nice night. Although some of the areas of the restaurant are noisier than others.
