Lively bar scene. We arrived at 5:45 to get dinner before Pat Metheny at the Carolina theatre. Place was quiet, but by the time we left at 7:15 it was packed. Had the dry Sherry sampler, a couple of glasses of wine between the two of us. Started out with the Pan Con Tomate, the Pintxo Platter, Datiles, and the mixto platter. All excellent. Dessert chocolate mousse with local NC Vidari Chocolate - excellent. Cheese cake good, but needed a punch of flavor. Peaches were not ripe and needed something. Overall meal and service were excellent. Kayla our server made the whole thing great. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Price per person: $70–80 Parking space: Plenty of parking Parking options: Paid parking lot

Mateo Bar de Tapas is an excellent restaurant that I highly recommend. Situated in the heart of downtown Durham, the restaurant has delicious Spanish and Southern cuisine in a chic yet cozy atmosphere. I adored the décor, and the employees were very welcoming. My party and I ordered various tapas to share with the table: the pulpo a la plancha (grilled octopus), ensalada pipirrana, calamares fritos (fried calamari), and the “mixto” option for the cheese and jamón charcuterie platter. For the platter, we ordered serrano and chorizo for our two jamón options alongside the Manchego and Carolina Moon cheeses. The food was served as it was prepared; we would have a couple tapa plates at a time. For dessert, we ordered the chocolate mousse, crème brûlée, and cappuccinos. The cappuccinos were amazing and a wonderful way to end a lovely meal. Though somewhat expensive, I felt the prices were worth the excellent service and the high quality (and very reasonable quantity) of the food. Mateo Bar de Tapas is a deservingly popular restaurant, so I would recommend making a reservation several days in advance, if not more. In terms of parking, there is a small lot right next to the restaurant. That said, parking in Durham can be sometimes tricky as downtown is often crowded in the evening with Durham residents enjoying all their city has to offer! My party and I used a rideshare app for transportation to and from the restaurant, which proved to be very convenient for us.
