Merida's Tapas & Cantina offers a cozy and trendy dining experience that truly impresses! 🌟

I loved the **Gambas al Ajillo** - spicy garlic shrimp that paired perfectly with their rustic bread, though I would suggest making sure to include it next time! The **Brussel sprout salad** was fresh and crispy, a delightful start to our meal.

Samantha, our server, was outstanding - cheerful and knowledgeable! 🥂 The outdoor patio is spacious; just keep in mind it can get busy. The only downside was a bit of a wait for drinks when it was packed.

Can't wait to return for more delicious tapas and
