Ficelle: Reviews & Ratings
Sweet spot in downtown Winters to try new Spanish cuisine and other tasty morsels more seating would be helpful for this busy little gem
We had an amazing experience! The place was busy and so we sat at the counter, but our food and drink were out very quickly. The staff was exceptionally kind and friendly. The quality of the food was exceptional and we were impressed by the prices. It is a bit loud inside, but that was part of the charm. Absolutely check them out if you're in the area!
Tapas selections were delicious and affordable! Pleased with the selection despite the very informal setting . Very cute setting. We enjoyed all of the various plates with good portion sizes. The cheesecake was Devine!
Just adore this spot! Been there many times and love it everytime. The Chile Relleno, garlic aioli & bread, Sangria. Crab manicotti, dang near everything is sooo good. It's my fave dinner spot in Winters.
Wow what a great place for tapas. Came right when they opened and the line was very long. Though there were a ton of people ordering we order so much food and the food came out within 20 minutes. It was amazing. Service was great even though they were slammed. I had gotten the chicken parm and it was great. Don't forget to try their garlic dip with bread. Amazing! The vibe of the restaurant was great and reminds me of a Spanish/Italian dining. Food was cheap for the amount of items purchased. Though pricing is not listed on the menu. Great place to go with friends or family.
This unassuming little casual tapas place is worth a visit if in Winters. You order at the counter and keep your tab open until you are done. We enjoyed the variation of dishes. A small indoors dining room and bar seats for 4 is in a modern air conditioned room. There are some tables outdoors.
First time here and SO impressed! My partner and I shared Gambas Al Ajillo, Chile relleno de la noche, teriyaki beef skewers, and crostini con queso and two glasses of wine. Everything was amazing. Such a creative and unique menu! A little pricey but worth it. Will be back!
This is like fine dining in a fast food type setting, you. Order or get a table number then order but the food is amazing, sort of a Spanish and European menu, put your number they give in your table and then they bring the food to you. Wine & beer beverages, plus their home made Sangria. My favorite dish was the Chile Relleno which pairs well with the Sangria.
