Step into Meninas Grill, where the vibrant colours, intimate atmosphere, and deliciously authentic Spanish tapas come together to create a truly memorable experience. 

In Spain, the dinner table brings life. We bring that exact spirit to Beaufort Street with tapas built for conversation, laughs, and the kind of evening that stretches well beyond what you originally planned. Share, savour, and celebrate. The passing of plates is where tapas begins. What follows, the conversation, the second pour, the evening that refuses to end, is centuries of Spanish culture doing exactly what it was meant to do.

Perth’s Spanish Tapas, Done the Right Way

Our tapas menu directly draws from Spain’s rich culinary traditions.

Each dish is prepared with considered techniques and ingredients worth knowing about. Order one to start or build a spread across the table. Either way, this is how Spain intended it. Here are some of our tapas, straight from the menu:

  • Royal Tower: Our signature sharing centrepiece. Slow-cooked octopus, handcrafted albóndigas, crispy croquetas de jamón Serrano, grilled chorizo and Manchego, brought together with our house brava. Recommended for two.
  • Pulpo Real: Slow-cooked Two Rocks octopus on double-cooked crispy potatoes, finished with D.O. certified pimentón dulce infused EVOO and black ink.
  • Croquetas de Jamón Serrano: Crisp outside, creamy within. Made with Spanish Serrano ham, Manchego cheese and onion.
  • Tortilla Española: A traditional Spanish egg tortilla. Gooey inside, layered with delicately chopped potato and poached onion.
  • Patatas Bravas: Golden, crispy potato wedges with a house-made brava of fresh tomato, Spanish spices and sweet paprika. Finished with creamy aioli.

Tapas & Wine: The Authentic Experience

Tapas and wine were never separate. They are the same experience, rooted in the same centuries-old Spanish tradition of eating well and drinking slowly.

Back to its rich origin, the wine always came first. At Meninas, we honour that.

We invite you to our wine bar, featuring options sourced from some of Spain’s esteemed wine regions, perfectly fit for your tapas restaurant experience.

Spanish Tapas Frequently Asked Questions

What type of food is tapas?

Tapas are small plates of food in Spanish cuisine. They can be combined to make a full meal and are either served cold or hot.

The most popular tapas include tortilla de patata, calamares, croquettes and ensaladilla, with the list changing according to the specialties of each region and even each bar. A tortilla de patata is a simple, rustic potato frittata. Fried potatoes and onions are cooked with eggs, lightly browned on both sides, and cut into wedges. Croquettes are breaded, fried nuggets of béchamel stuffed with savoury extras like ham, cheese and cod.

You can have one or two portions of tapas as an aperitivo or enjoy a whole meal of dishes. They can be eaten standing at the bar, sitting on a stool, or at a low table. Order a few plates, share them across the table, and let the meal take its own pace.

Appetisers come before the main course and offer diners satisfaction before larger portions arrive. Tapas, on the other hand, represent the main course divided into small, delectable bites throughout the duration of a meal.
