Tropenzón, Española Way’s gin and tapas gem, is now open for lunch! Since opening earlier this year, Tropenzón has established itself as a go-to dinner spot known for its cowboy-inspired design, Spanish tapas cuisine, and collection of house-infused gins.

Guests can choose their mid-day meal from sought-after sections: tapas (small shareable plates), ensaladas (salads), bocadillos (sandwiches), and dulce (dessert). Highlights from the celebrated tapas section include fan favorites like chorizo de iberico, manchego cheese, spanish tortillas with onion, papas bravas, and much more. Pair the meal with greens such as a gem lettuce salad with white vinaigrette and red onion or a tomato salad with white onion, parsley, and Pedro Ximenez.

Tropenzón also offers guests weekly and monthly happenings like Paella Sundays and Tonic & Tapas.

At $55 per guest, the all-you-can-eat special is ideal for parties of any size and available in every area of the charming eatery. Reservations for the next installment on October 30 are available now via resy.
