Tapas are small plates often ordered in several varieties and shared. At La Mesa Tapas, guests can choose a selection for the table or build a meal around the dishes they most want to try.
How many tapas should we order?

Can tapas accommodate dietary needs?
Options and preparation can vary by dish. Tell your server about any allergies or dietary restrictions before ordering so the team can explain ingredients and help identify suitable choices.
