BEST TAPAS IN YEARS! Had never been to the restaurant before, but came across it while wandering round Broughty Ferry looking for a place for lunch. As tapas lovers, we thought we’d give it a go. We were welcomed by Lewis who was very personable and attentive. He explained the menu options to us and really looked after us from start to finish. When the food came, we thought we’d ordered too much, but it was just so good that we just loosened the belts and got stuck in! Without a doubt sone of the best tapas we’d had in years. Can’t wait to go back next time we’re in town. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

Fabulous meal I must admit that after seeing the owners Facebook post and then reading the Trip Advisor reviews from last week, I was considering cancelling our booking. After being a regular before the new owners took over, this was always my favourite restaurant. I am delighted to say that I’m glad we didn’t cancel. Firstly I love the new decor upstairs, it’s really classy and warm. The welcome we got was friendly and the service was good too. We went for the cold and hot Tapas and we were not disappointed. The selection was really tasty and varied. My only gripe was I felt a little bowl of salad is not a tapas but other than that, it was great. When the hot food started coming out, we could not believe how many prawns we got. The chicken skewers were tasty and we got a bowl of patatas bravas each and a selection of other hot dishes. We could not finish it all so portion wise, we had more than enough. The only thing I wish we had done differently was order a bottle of wine but instead we opted for 2 glasses of Tempranillo and it just didn’t taste like Tempranillo so not sure if the wine by the glass is different? Anyway, we thoroughly enjoyed the meal and glad we went, we will be back.

Awesome Had a few drinks and food! The gambas Al pilpil was delicious. Our waiter Lewis was fabulous, his chat was amazing and was really funny! Definitely come when Lewis is here

Friday lunch visit We came in on a Friday afternoon for lunch. Lewis greeted us and sat us at our table. We had the set lunch menu which was great value for money. Food was served in good time and was really tasty. Lewis also took a moment to chat to us. Will definitely be back again soon.

Delicious food great service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Memorable experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect balance between professional, attentive and friendly. Fresh well prepared food we chose the set menu. Though individual menu options also available. The staff made the night for us.

Repeat customers We eat here regularly and love visiting. The food is always delicious and the staff are always very welcoming and great at explaining the choices and each dish when they arrive. One of our favourite places to eat, infact we have to limit ourselves so as not to seem too needy 😅 we are lucky to live so close to such a cool place!

Birthday Tapas - a real treat! The perfect night out to celebrate my partner's birthday! We went for the Chef's Selection which provides some lovely surprise dishes - a mix of starters and mains tapas. My personal highlights was the halloumi kebab, patatas bravas, padron peppers, aioli and all of the little salad dishes we started off with. Partner loved all of the meat dishes and basically everything else! We also had a jug of the red wine sangria, which was delicious and two Mojhitos which were very well made and packed with flavour, lots of mint and ice. Huge shout-out to the two staff who were perfect hosts, super pleasant and attentive, created a lovely relaxing vibe for us. A bustling wee night at Sol Y Sombre - thanks again.

Favourite Restaurant in the Ferry Another wonderful night at Sol y Sombra, to celebrate my husbands promotion. The food was as amazing as it always is, staff were welcoming, friendly and attentive, and the restaurant as a whole is our favourite in Broughty Ferry. We consider ourselves lucky having this lovely restaurant so close to us.

Continues to be the best tapas Exceptional food and service. A group of us had a great meal and probably too much food but the dishes that were brought out were delicious and very good value The acoustics aren’t easy for a number of us who have heating problems but unfortunately 4 men who apparently had been golfing all day arrived very drunk , continued to drink and were quite obnoxious. One even put his leg up on the table. We appreciate how difficult these situations are for the very young staff to deal with but they were quite offensive. I hope they all have a hangover from H this morning. They fortunately didn’t stay that long but being literally right beside certainly made us plan to leave earlier than anticipated.

A Spanish delight in Broughty Ferry A wonderful cosy Spanish restaurant in the heart of Broughty Ferry. The restaurant exceeded our expectations and was accurate to recent reviews. The set dinner menu hot tapas was beautifully curated, perfectly flavoured and portions were plentiful. Different each day we understand but we had dishes with Cod, Pork Belly, Prawns, greens, potato Bravas. The red sangria was fruity and fresh. The service by the three young men and a young lady was attentive, helpful and friendly. Given it was the owners birthday on the day we visited we were given lots of extra treats, totally unexpected and extremely generous. A restaurant not to be missed. A great night out with my parents on a short weekend break away in a beautiful part of Scotland.

Fantastic food and service! Fabulous lunch with our visiting American friends! Service was impressive! Just the right amount of attention from very personable young man. Food was outstanding! Favourite dishes were chicken salad, albondigas and chicken and chorizo skewers.

A wee slice of Spain in the Ferry. Hands down my favourite place to go with hubby. . Food delicious and great value. Great chilled atmosphere. A wee slice of Spain in the Ferry.

Fantastic Tapas in Dundee had dinner here on Friday night, Table upstairs and great service. Menu was non existant and that suits me fine because its Tapas and you tell them if there is anything you dont like. We loved it all, And they have Estrella Galicia on Tap.

Lovely catch up lunch Lovely lunch with our friends. So much choice and what we ate was fresh and tasty. Very mindful of our friend’s allergies. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable, nothing was too much bother.

The real deal for tapas in Tayside! Consistently good, authentic, and imaginative tapas. Expect a few surprises, not your average tapas selection. Also, lovely personal service from a family business that just wants people to have a great experience. Great explanations of the different dishes too. Highly recommend.

Great food! Great food and friendly service! The tapas were delicious and full of flavor. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice, relaxed meal.
