Silla Del Toro - Marietta

We've been to this place several times, and the food is awesome, and it's got a cozy, intimate atmosphere. We love the bacon wrapped dates, the octopus, and the steak all pair well with their nice selection of handcrafted cocktails.. Our one gripe is the customer service at the door. We spontaneously decided to go on a Wednesday, and the guy at the door acted like he wasn't sure if he could seat us, even though the restaurant was sparsely occupied. He asked us if we had a reservation and there was this long pause as he appeared to look to see if they could accommodate us. Please keep in mind that the restaurant isn't large and there's outdoor seating, plus bar seating. It was very off-putting. I am making it a point to mention it because this isn't the 1st time it has happened there, and it's starting to become a turn-off. I'm all for a swanky and exclusive experience, but not at the expense of having to wonder if I'm welcome or not.

Make reservations, this place isn't a walk up restaurant unless you're ok with sitting outside I made reservations for my boyfriend and I at Silla Del Toro on the square of Marietta for his birthday dinner and it was amazing. Tapas and drinks are all good! I ordered an Old Fashioned. Then,we had a grown up lunch able, aka a meat and cheese board that was delicious. We ordered these tapas; Tortilla Española, Empanadas, Pinchos, Spanish Style Mac Cheese and Manchego stuffed Dates wrapped with Bacon.They even gave him a free dessert which he chose the churros. They were DEVINE!Would definitely go again and try something new!If you're new to this area, arrive early to find parking the square can get crazy on the weekends, especially.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Silla del Toro is more than just a restaurant; it’s a place that takes pride in crafting lasting memories. Bill went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at ease. He greeted us with genuine warmth and took the time to enthusiastically guide us through the menu. Bill’s dedication and attention to detail were truly impressive. He patiently discussed every aspect of our visit, from the menu choices to the seating arrangements. His professionalism and sincere desire to make our special day extraordinary shone through in every interaction we had. The staff at Silla del Toro reflected Bill's exceptional commitment to customer service. Throughout our meal, we were treated with the utmost care and kindness. I wholeheartedly recommend Silla del Toro. Thank you, Bill, and the entire team, for creating an unforgettable experience that we will always cherish.

Great food and service. Israel was a wonderful waiter and took care of us. Loved the tapas and the wine selection. We had the grilled shrimp, salad, meatballs, and bacon-wrapped dates. For dessert, we had the toffee cake with ice cream. Everything was delicious and fresh. Wish they were open a little earlier in the day as I'd love to have late lunch there.

The service was excellent; our server was attentive and helped us with our menu inquiries while checking in on us throughout the meal. We started with drinks and ordered several dishes to share. The timing of the plates was perfect, coming out one or two at a time, which made it a lot more manageable and enjoyable. I tried both the sangria flight and the mezcal flight, and they were both delicious. For dessert, we shared a plate of butter toffee cake, which was absolutely amazing. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I’m looking forward to returning, even just for drinks and a charcuterie board. Although not photographed, I also highly recommend the Albondigas (meatballs), which we ordered two servings of, the tasty pinchos (steak), Gambas Al Ajillo (very good), and Calamari, which was a hit with everyone at the table. I didn’t try the escalavada, but our group ordered two plates and they really enjoyed it.
