From the moment we walked in, the service was outstanding. Daniela, our server, went above and beyond, she was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience feel truly special. The rest of the staff also deserves recognition for their professionalism and warm hospitality. The food was absolutely SPECTACULAR, every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. On top of that, the atmosphere was phenomenal: vibrant, welcoming, and full of great energy. This place is a gem, and I can’t wait to come back. Huge thanks to Daniela and the entire team for making it such a memorable evening!

Octopus casserole was outstanding. Also had a pasta dish (sorry, forget the name) that was equally as good. We talked all weekend about how much we enjoyed our meals. Drinks were well made and the service was excellent and welcoming. Will definitely go back next time I'm in the area

Really enjoyed my dinner here! The service was really wonderful and the atmosphere is cozy. We had the beet salad and the octopus to start, both delicious. Then for entrees we got the burger, the ribeye, and the chicken milanesa. The food came out fairly quick and we had a great time. We spent $193 (including tip) for three people for the two appetizers, three entrees, a cocktail, and two soft drinks.

Tabare has the best empanadas in town! The sauce that goes with it is equally amazing. I live in NJ but still make the effort to come to Williamsburg just for Tabare! The ambiance, service and food are all equally excellent! Highly recommend, must try Uruguayan spot!

I came here with my family and friends to celebrate my grandmother’s birthday and the hospitality team was so awesome. Once we arrived, two gentleman placed us in a table right away. We were offered menus and while we looked at the menus and placed our orders the food arrived within 15 minutes. Tabaré Williamsburg is cozy, warm, and family oriented. The restaurant is truly an Uruguayan and filled with warmth traditions from Uruguays music filled ambience. The food was remarkable, delicious, and well served. Most of us ordered Churrascos with the exception of our grandmother who ordered a Ribeye steak. What an amazing time we had here! I definitely recommend Tabaré Williamsburg to anyone in the area and food lovers and enthusiasts. Come here to Tabaré take a good trip to Uruguay! All are welcome!

Super cute patio in the backyard. Food was 10 / 10 and absolutely loved the Churrasco (will come back just to have that again). Would also recommend the chicken & gruyere cheese empanadas; very flavorful. All in all very nice experience. Great place for a catch up with friend :)

First time to the Tabaré and was hosted by Mateo. Very friendly, knowledgeable and gave good recommendations. What a gem in the neighborhood. Will be back in the future. The Prex Fixe was a great value and we got the flan dessert. Very satisfying dining experience.

A very enjoyable experience. A mix between loud and quiet atmosphere with random items on the wall. Top tier service with some excellent Uruguayan food to try. I have never been to Uruguay but the food was really good. Empanadas are ordered in batches of two and the Gouda one was insane. A few steak options that were all delicious as well. Ask about the homemade pasta selection of the day! The truffle mushroom one was one of the best pastas I have ever had!

Such a great spot. Happy Hour deal was so worth it and the food was delicious. I would deff come here again and try a new item and drink! 🙂‍↕️😋 Cash only tho 😅

Perfect place for a date night or an intimate dinner. The place is super cute and romantic - has a patio in the back and also outdoor seating at the front of the restaurant. One dish that stood out the most was the churrasco; the others were kinda so-so. The staff are very attentive and friendly.

The service and atmosphere were genuinely good, and the staff were great, but unfortunately that’s where the positives end. The TikTok hype is completely unwarranted. The food falls far short of authentic Uruguayan cuisine—overly greasy to the point of being unpleasant. To make matters worse, they don’t accept Visa or Mastercard, so unless you’re carrying cash, you’re out of luck. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience, especially when there are far better Uruguayan food options in New Jersey, like Pizzeria Montevideo.

The menu online looked amazing, so I decided to give this place a try. Here’s my honest opinion. First off, the food tastes incredible, no doubt they have a talented cook. We arrived shortly after opening (around 5:20 p.m.) and were the second table there. We sat inside, but unfortunately, we all ended up getting bitten by mosquitoes, which was a bit uncomfortable. We ordered a few appetizers and were excited to try them. While they tasted great, the portion sizes were very small, especially considering the price. For a group of four, they weren’t really shareable. The olives, for example, would pair perfectly with some bread on the side. As the place started to fill up, we noticed other tables getting their food before us, even though we had arrived earlier. Our mains took quite a while to arrive, and the same happened with dessert. When we finished, it also took a long time to get the check, it felt like we had been forgotten at times. Service was okay, but inconsistent, as we had different servers each time. Overall, the food was excellent, but the portion sizes, wait times, and service could use improvement.

I have been here twice before, and my partner and I were really looking forward to celebrating New Year’s Eve at this restaurant. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. We ordered lobster soup, empanadas, and a ribeye steak. Instead, we were brought a completely different order without being asked. When the server or food runner realized the mistake, they immediately took the plates away. While they did apologize, we noticed that the same issue happened to nearby tables, which suggests a lack of organization. The lobster soup was especially disappointing. It was more of a lobster-flavored soup rather than containing actual lobster meat, and it came with a lobster shell used only as a “decoration,” which felt misleading. The main reason we came was for the ribeye steak, and fortunately, that was the only dish that did not disappoint. At the time of payment, we paid with a $100 bill and the server asked if we wanted the change. That felt inappropriate. While we understand tipping culture, it should never be assumed or requested in that way. Overall, this experience did not meet our expectations, especially for a New Year’s Eve dinner.
