Sol y Sombra has been Dundee’s original and favourite tapas bar since it opened in 2011. Born out of a childhood love for Spain and Spanish food we have created a menu of fresh, authentic and simple tapas. The aim is to recreate the atmosphere of a typical Spanish family meal, requiring everyone to share and enjoy the meal as one.
Our chefs use the morning’s freshly delivered ingredients to decide which dishes will be served that day. We can cater to all dietary requirements and pride ourselves in offering truly delicious vegetarian and vegan dishes. Our lunch set menu with cold and hot dishes is £22.50 per person and dinner is £31 per person (not including drinks and desserts). We also have the option of Hot tapas only with bread and Aioli for £17.50 for lunch and £26 at Dinner.
We have dining areas on the ground floor and first floor which boast a wide range of gins, beers, wines, spirits, cocktails and our signature sangria. Our expert staff are always on hand to help you find the perfect drink to accompany your tapas.
Our vouchers are very popular and the perfect gift for any occasion. They can be purchased online or in the restaurant. If you’d like to put a smile on someone’s face with a Sol y Sombra gift voucher please click here.
A first-class visit to Sol Y Sombra. There's a brand new menu if you want to select the tapas dishes yourself, but you can still opt for the chef's selection, which is what we did, and no regrets. An excellent 'summary' of the menu dishes, a really good mix including for me as a vegetarian (there's also a whole page vegan menu by the way). Sometimes vegetarians can feel a bit left out, but there are so many inventive and imaginative dishes here. Not just the classic tapas you can get elsewhere. My favourites were the corn ribs, vegan meatballs, vege kebab, patatas bravas (done VERY well) but also loved all the cold starters. My husband, who eats meat and fish, said there were too many to choose a favourite and was impressed by all the exciting flavours. Also enjoyed a jug of red wine sangria which was delicious and better than some of the sangrias we just had in Barcelona last month! Service was bang-on - super friendly and informal but also professional. Can highly recommend.read more
