Opened in 2014, Seville Tapas is the realization of our dream to share the flavors of Spain with the people of the coastside. Tapas, small snacks meant to be shared, are designed to encourage conversation among diners. There are many stories surrounding the origin of tapas, but, since the word itself means “lid” or “top” it seems likely to have come from the custom of serving sherry with a small slice of bread, which is placed on top of the glass between sips to keep fruit flies from being attracted to the sweet drink.Opened in 2014, Seville Tapas is the realization of our dream to share the flavors of Spain with the people of the coastside.
