    I have been eating at Jaleo since 1995, and even though I don’t live in Dc anymore, I must eat at Jaleo each time I visit. And the food never disappoints. They also have excellent Spanish wines, which are not easy to find in the US.

    First time at the restaurant and had a wonderful time for our “date night” (as married parents). Really enjoyed the food and wine options. Customer service was really impressive, made us feel welcomed and led to us staying longer. Had the a selection of tapas, paella with oxtail and ended the night with rice pudding and coffee. Great night!
