Taberna de Haro serves the authentic cuisine of Spain, including tapas, entrees, sherry, and over 300 Spanish wines. The hospitality is warm and the food has integrity! Whether you choose a leisurely dinner with our famous roasted free-range chicken or a quick dish of spicy garlic shrimp at our bar, Straight Law Bar (a Gin & Sherry bar named Best of Boston for cocktails in 2015), your senses will be gratified. Our open kitchen sends out seductive aromas of braised lamb, grilled fish, sautéed artichokes and griddled mushrooms - you will be transported to Spain! The Iberian ham is cut to order, the black paella is sultry, the eggs are free-range, the French fries are hand-cut, the octopus is perfectly cooked, and the anchovies are plump, and the exquisite, imported olive oil is downright drinkable. The wine list offers Spain"s most intriguing wines, and has won awards from The Wine Spectator, The World of Fine Wines, and The Wine Enthusiast as well as local awards.

Taberna de Haro is such a fantastic restaurant! The food is amazing, one tapas better than the other (the sweat bread being out if this world among others), the wine list excellent and the pricing very reasonable. Add to the mix a perfect service and you will want to come back over and over again!

Friendly but slow service. Could have been a new guy. Quality of the tapas seems to have suffered over the past couple of months. Wonderful wine list but lousy bread. Barcelona make their own bread and it is superb.
Taberna de HaroResponded on April 13, 2022
I apologize for the slow service. We are training new servers for our busy season, and I'm so sorry this may have delayed dishes, etc. FYI, our normally outstanding Iggy's bread was unavailable last weekend due to a terrible fire in their bakery. With less than one day's notice, I had to secure bread for the weekend (almost 400 people!!), as did hundreds of other restaurants in the city as the much-loved Iggy's provides so many of us with bread. I thought I had secured us a good one, a sliced sourdough from NY, but I am seeing it wasn't up to the usual standard. We never microwave our bread to make it seem fresh-baked, either. I hope you'll give us another try to experience our authentic Spanish cuisine, our friendly and fast new servers, and our excellent Iggy's bread.

Everyone on staff is amazingly knowledgeable - the bartender guided us through a mini-lesson on pairing sherry with oysters and our server helped us pick a selection of dishes that really showed off the menu. We arrived early to take advantage of happy hour, and they held on to our sherry and drinks for us so we could step outside for a few minutes before our dinner reservation. Chef Deborah was absolutely wonderful, and it really just seemed like the whole staff was having a blast! The atmosphere was cheerful and inviting, and there was something interesting catching your eye no matter where you looked. I've been wanting to come here for almost a decade, ever since I moved to Boston, yet it took entertaining out-of-town family for us to finally make it here. But between the ease of getting here, the fact that it's a place we can afford to make a habit of, and the food being OUTSTANDING, we're hoping to make it more of a monthly thing.
