El Pimiento is a neighborhood Spanish restaurant in Miami Lakes built around tapas, paella, and dishes meant for sharing. The dining room holds about a dozen tables, strung with twinkle lights and hung with Spanish fans and medieval weapons.
The kitchen's most-ordered dishes include garbanzo frito, chickpeas sautéed with chorizo and smoky paprika, alongside pulpo a la gallega, gambas con champis al ajillo, and bombones de jamón serrano. The menu also runs to bacalao a la gallega, albondigas in salsa brava, pulpo al ajillo, and a seafood sopon marinero, with the Tabla Pimiento offering Cantimpalo sausage, Serrano ham, and Manchego cheese for the table.
Live flamenco takes over the dining room on Thursday nights, with singing and dancing starting in the early evening. El Pimiento also caters tapas and paella for private and corporate events out of the same kitchen.
