Spanish-inspired & wood-fired plates pair with an award winning wine and cocktail bar in an airy, old-world dining room & patio. Our motto is simple: Cooking the perfect ingredient over hard wood creates the best tasting food. Bar Casa Vale focuses on recreating the tapas bars of Barcelona, Sherry bodegas in Jerez, and Pintxo crawls through San Sebastian all right here in Portland. We proudly use local ingredients: seafood from the pacific ocean, meats from pastures surrounding Portland, and vegetables from local gardens.

Went for Portland dining month. Was excited to try this place! We got the croquettes (which were good but a tad on the salty side) and the tortilla which was not the layered potato experience we were used to from our trip to Spain. We then waiting over 1.5 hours for our main. Which the chicken, was absolutely fantastic, but the pork was very dry. The flavor was great but sadly it was dry and hard to eat. We then had the basque cheesecake go desert which was fantastic. We ended up being there for over 2.5 hours and with the ambience being so nice we did not mind. It seemed they were understaffed for how many people they had. Everyone was very nice but the wait time between even us sitting Don and ordering was very long. Not sure I will be back, but glad I tried it. Also not sure the portland dining month menu is worth it, might be better to just order a few tapas and a drink!

Went to Bar Casa Vale last night and really enjoyed the overall experience.
The vibe is honestly the best part. great music, cozy but stylish atmosphere, and just really good energy in the space. It’s perfect for drinks and small plates. I’d especially recommend it for couples. This place feels like a guaranteed solid first-date spot.
Food was overall very good, and you can tell there’s care and intention behind the dishes. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but it matches the quality and ambiance.
One small downside one of the fish dishes tasted slightly more “fishy” than I expected. Also, the meat felt a little overlooked and slightly gummy in texture. Not bad by any means, just not as strong as everything else we tried.
Parking is a little limited, so keep that in mind.

The portions are small, even the non-tapas menu, so I ordered a large variety of items. Unfortunately I wasn’t too impressed with many of them, particularly the ribs, which were blander than I expected. The standouts were the mushroom rice and the squash blossoms. Both had an excellent balance of flavors.
But the desserts are where this place shines. I ordered one of each available, and all three were phenomenal. The chocolate cake was probably the best I’ve ever had. It was heavenly.

I knew the Olympia Provisions empire stretched beyond their eponymous headquarters, but was still pleasantly surprised to see how far, while checking their website. Bar Casa Vale is the Spanish offshoot, and I’m thrilled to have paid a visit.
First off, croquetas were spectacular – perfectly done. The octopus was among the top 3 I’ve ever had, anywhere. Patatas Bravas had just the right amount of seasoning, like everything else we tried here. All in all, the bar food here compares favorably with anything I’ve had, anywhere in Spain.
The space is welcoming – with lighting that makes it easy to read the menu, while being subdued at the same time. Service was knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient, without hovering.

Absolutely over hyped. We ordered the croquettes, patatas bravas, vegetable skewer, scallops, the grilled octopus, and the sangria. The sangria was the best item of the meal. The salsas/sauces for each dish were under seasoned, the root vegetables were undercooked. There was no stand out flavor. Lower mid tier at best. The croquettes tasted like freezer burn. Just so bad. The server also rushed us out even though we had a reservation and there was no disclosure as to a maximum dining limit- why even show us a dessert menu if you’re going to rush us out 10 seconds later (seriously counted how long it took her to return after dropping off the dessert menu).
This was a one and done for us.

If you’re after some great Spanish tapas, definitely check out Bar Casa Vale. The food is delicious and the portions are generous. The staff are kind and attentive. There’s also a great drinks menu with a comprehensive list of Spanish wines and spirits.

A great tapas restaurant!! We went with 4 people and ordered 7 dishes, fried cauliflower, salad, potatoes, mussels, pork ribs, hanger steak, paella. All were so good (I didn’t have steak and pork, but my friends confirmed they were very good). Paella could have a little bit more rice but the crispy bottom was so good. Desserts were excellent too. Service was spot on the wine I chose was nice too. It has nice size parking lot. Seating areas are consistent of interior room and two attached domed area with plenty of heating. We sat in inside seats but domed area with fire was an another attractive choice. I will return to this restaurant in the future for sure.

Great location for delicious Tapas and Spanish wine. Service was prompt and friendly as well! The woodfired oven gives Old World flair and the industrial style keeps the ambience classy and moody for either a romantic evening or an outing with friends.
