   We only ordered tapas and the food was delicious. The Spanish and Italian wines that we had we very good. This is a great place for a small meal and for a larger one (just keep ordering tapas or get a pasta dish).

   Great place for Spanish food in the Bay Area. The sample platter was generous and delicious. We ordered two main plates, paella and seafood linguine because we were really hungry. Bothe tasted amazing, however, the paella shouldn’t have included chicken breast because it was tough, dry and tasteless.

   This was our second visit. The first was excellent. The food was delicious, service was great and the ambiance was great. On our second visit we were seated outside. I would recommend sitting inside for a better experience. Even with the heaters it was chilly.

   We had a great time tonight as first time guests. The tapas selection was great. The main menu was very unfocused. The food is delicious. The wine was good and our server even exchanged a bottle of wine that we chose that we didn’t like. Kudos to the great service and wonderful customer centered perspective. We definitely will return. Thank you so much!

   What an absolute jewel. Stephania was delightful and beautiful. We ordered the tapas sampler along with pita and hummus. So good and fresh we couldn't eat it all. Stephania recommended a Slovenian Pinot Grigio that was marvelous. What a great find the night before our flight from SFO.

   We had a great time celebrating my birthday. The live music was a nice surprise and very enjoyable too. Server was friendly and took great care of us. Food, especially the appetizers were tasty . Overall, Pulpo is a fun neighborhood restaurant and wine bar! We will return!

   We really enjoyed our meal. We had tapas (the pulpo was excellent) and enjoyed the Spanish wines.

    Lovely neighborhood gem. We enjoyed our dinner with tasty grilled octopus as an appetizer followed by my turkey burger and my husband's risotto with duck. Both dishes were delicious and plenty. The selection of wines is amazing and I would highly suggest this restaurant to everyone. We will be back. Plus, they have a full lunch special for only $25.00. Can't get better than that!
