"5"^^ . "1"^^ . "In a word, \"delicious\". Amazingly delicious (but that's two words). We had walked by Casa Tapas many times, but my son suggested we try it out as it had some vegan options. The five of us tried seven tapas plates as well as a plate of vegetarian paella. Four of those eight plates were outstanding - I'll go as far as to say the best tapas plates I have ever had. These included:\n- a shrimp dish - crispy shrimp in an incredible garlic dressing;*\n- asparagus - with Manchebo cheese;\n- braised veal cheeks in a tomato/red pepper foam;*\n- the vegetarian paella, which had perfectly done veggies and either some incredibly tasty secret seasoning or more saffron than I've ever used in making paella at home. The fact that we had to wait 30 minutes for this dish is proof that it isn't something simply microwaved in the kitchen.\n\n* Casa Tapas provides a nice basket of bread at the beginning and refills it as often as you empty it. I've tagged these two dishes as ones where we used the bread to sop up every last spoonful of the sauces.\n\nService was excellent. Warm olives are served as you sit down. They have a good wine list of Spanish wines. I admit to not knowing much about Spanish wines, so we asked for a recommended dry white. We were served a Jan\u00E9 Ventura Blanc Seleccio which our waiter said was in the style of a sauvignon blanc. It was better than that. Unfortunately, I couldn't find it on either the LCBO or SAQ websites.\n\nTo finish it off, one of the best espressos I've had in Canada.\n\nI'll be going back."^^ . . "0"^^ . "2"^^ .
