Paella – The Soul of Spanish Celebration
PAELLA
Paella is more than Spain’s most iconic dish — it’s a living tradition that turns gatherings into celebrations. Cooked live over an open flame, it fills the air with the irresistible aroma of saffron, peppers, and smoky broth, creating a warm and vibrant experience for your guests.
We use authentic bomba rice, the heart of every great paella. Its unique texture absorbs rich flavors without losing its bite, finishing with the golden socarrat — that crispy, caramelized layer of rice at the bottom that everyone waits for.
Our paellas are crafted with passion and fresh, seasonal ingredients:
Seafood Paella - Saffron-infused rice brimming with the freshest catch and delivering a pure Mediterranean taste.
Farmhouse Paella – tender chicken, garden vegetables, and rustic flavor.
Steak Paella – juicy seared steak with smoky depth and hearty richness.
Garden Paella – vibrant, vegan-friendly, and full of Mediterranean color.
Smoked Ribs Paella – slow-cooked ribs, bold flavor, and melt-in-your-mouth goodness.
Black Paella (Arroz Negro) – a striking, ocean-inspired paella made with squid ink, calamari, and shrimp, offering rich umami flavor and dramatic presentation.
From intimate dinners to large celebrations, paella brings people together. Guests gather around the pan, share stories, and savor every bite — because at Tapeo, we don’t just serve food, we serve experiences — the Spanish way.

Chicken & Vegetables Paella.
Hearty, rustic, and full of soul, our Farmhouse Paella is inspired by the Spanish countryside where simple, fresh ingredients come together.
Tender pieces of chicken are simmered with a colorful medley of seasonal vegetables — think peppers, green beans, zucchinis, onion, and ripe tomatoes — all cooked in a fragrant saffron-infused broth with traditional bomba rice. The slow flame locks in deep flavor and forms a perfect socarrat, the crispy golden rice layer that everyone loves to scrape from the pan.

Black Paella.
A dramatic ode to the sea, our Black Paella (Arroz Negro) is Spain’s most striking classic.
Laden with tender calamari and shrimp it’s slow-cooked over flame with traditional bomba rice, an ultra-rich shellfish broth, and natural squid ink that infuses every grain with deep, briny intensity—brightened at the finish with fresh lemon and a silky garlic alioli.
Every bite delivers ocean-deep flavor, luminous inky rice, and the unmistakable crunch of authentic socarrat.
-
Steak Paella.
Bold, smoky, and indulgent, our Steak Paella is a modern twist on a Spanish classic.
Thick cuts of tender steak are seared to perfection and simmered with saffron-infused bomba rice, caramelized onions, mushrooms, and scratched tomato. The result is a rich, meaty paella layered with deep flavors — finished with that signature socarrat, the golden crispy rice that brings it all together.
Every bite delivers the rustic soul of Spain with the hearty satisfaction of a perfectly cooked steak.

Vibrant, earthy, and full of Mediterranean sunshine, our Garden Paella celebrates the flavors of the Spanish huerta — the lush vegetable gardens that feed the soul of Spain.
This colorful dish brings together peppers, zucchini, green beans, mushrooms, onion, and ripe tomatoes, all gently cooked in a tasty sofrito and a saffron-infused broth with traditional bomba rice.
Each bite captures the freshness of the harvest and a golden socarrat at the bottom — that irresistible crispy rice that makes every paella unforgettable.
