Bodega is the new tapas place on Coventry in the former Utrecht space. The space itself is absolutely beautiful with Spanish tile, slate water wall, beautiful chandelier, unique wine wall, & spotless bathrooms. It's very fancy!
I wish that the food lived up to the decor. I was immediately disappointed that the menu was not traditional Spanish style tapas. But that would have been OK if the food was good enough. We had the heirloom caprese salad, tuna tempura roll, monkfish something or other. The only remarkable tapas was the caprese. We had the banana bread pudding for dessert and it was absolutely delicious, but did not really make up for what was lacking in the tapas.
The service needs polishing -- we had to ask for bread (all of the other tables had it); and the server really couldn't describe anything on the menu. But she was very sweet, probably just inexperienced.
Granted we did not try that many things on the menu, it is possible that I will go back to try out more of the food. The website states that Tuesdays is 50% off all tapas from 4-9pm, so that might be a good opportunity.
They have a ridiculous drink menu (12 pages of martinis), so if you are in the mood for drinks & dessert, maybe this is the place.
PS -- The menu on their website is definitely NOT the menu that we were offered. Which is fine, but just note that if you are expecting to do some research in advance.
