Tapelia

Tapelia brings contemporary Spanish cooking to the pedestrian heart of Lincoln Road in Miami Beach. Known for paellas made in the Spanish tradition, the kitchen turns out seafood paella, ham and cod croquettes, crispy empanadas, and a raw bar with oysters and ceviche, alongside Mediterranean flatbreads and specialty cocktails like sangria and mojitos.

The space is casual and lively, with outdoor tables that put guests in the middle of Lincoln Road's foot traffic and big screens inside for sports. It's a family-run operation that leans into sharing plates: jamon and manchego boards, mussel pots, and paellas built for two.

Expect moderate to higher prices typical of South Beach's main pedestrian strip, with meals running from quick lunch plates to full seafood towers. It draws a mix of tourists exploring Lincoln Road and locals coming back for happy hour and weekend brunch, with service extending late into the night daily.
