Espana is a magnificent restraunt. Espana has wonderful seafood dishes. Service is good but not great. The music they play, and the decorations they have, are very authentic. If you have not gone to eat at Espana, they are exspecting you soon! more

We found this great Spanish and Tapas place during our stay at Amelia island. We really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. They do some great fish dishes, our favorite was the spicy snapper. The food here is high quality and the atmosphere is great. more

My wife and I arrived late Saturday night at a local B&B in Fernandina Beach. Not many restaurants welcome guests arriving at 9:15 pm... but that was no problem for Espana Restaurant who immediately made us feel very welcome.

We ate here based in part on reviews on this site, chowhound, and our concierge's recommendation. The service was lovely but the food, quite frankly, left a lot to be desired. We had a seafood paella and a local shrimp with vegetable entree that were mediocre. Appetizers were a little better, some salads and marinated anchovies. We went into town... more

My first visit to Espana provided an overall positive experience. We had four different types of Tapas and were only dissappointed with the Calamari. It was very average and reminded me of Appleby's. The sangria was watered down and I would probably not order it again from there. Service was quite good and the waiter was present but not overbearing.... more

Just okay.

Went to Espana for Tapas - they advertise Spanish and Portuguese tapas -- while staying at the Amelia Island Plantation Inn. My guess is if you go there on the right night Espana could be really charming. We weren't there on the right night. When we told our server we were from out of town and asked for recommendations, she... more

My husband and I vacation in Amelia Island every year and ALWAYS look forward to dinner at Espana! The Sangria is some of the best we have ever had! Love the atmosphere, service, and food! Especially the PAELLA! Already looking forward to our trip in May! more

Nice atmosphere, very good service but average food. Maybe our expectations were too high based on prior reviews but we did not think the food was anything special. We had an enjoyable dinner but nothing extraordinary. more

Delicious

We decided to try Espana after Bob and Shannon, the innkeepers of the Addison, had highly recommended the restaurant. We were not disappointed. The food was delicious, we had mussel tapas and seafood paella. more
