Tapa Toro (Helena Modern Riviera): Spanish Tapas From $2

Tapa Toro runs happy hour every day from 3:00 to 6:00 PM: 2-for-1 drinks, half-price house beer, wine and sangria, and half-price cocktail pitchers. One condition to know before you pick a table, the drink specials are available at the bar only. The appetizers are individually priced and run $2 to $7: Empanada $2, Fierce Potatoes $4, Smashed Hummus $4, Pork Belly $5, Meatballs $5, Potatoes and Chorizo $5, Ham Croquettes $5, Calamari $6, Sliders $7, Mussels $7. A nightly flamenco dinner show runs at the venue, though its show times and any ticket or package pricing are not published.

Taverna Opa Orlando: Greek Meze From $5

Taverna Opa runs happy hour every day from 3:00 to 6:00 PM with 2-for-1 drinks and discounted meze priced item by item: Tzatziki $5, Tirokafteri $5, Housemade Hummus $5, Opa Fries $5, Keftedes $6, Spanakopita $6, Crispy Zucchini $6, Hand-Rolled Dolmades $6, Feta and Elies $6, Horiatiki Greek salad $7, Crispy Calamari $8, Pork Souvlaki $10. The specials are not available on holidays. Belly dancing and Greek entertainment run nightly from 7:00 PM, with no cover listed for it.

Choosing Between the Two

Same window, same 2-for-1 drink structure, so the decision is food and mood. Tapa Toro's plates start lower, at $2 for an empanada, and top out at $7, which makes a wide spread cheap for a group; its drink specials are bar-only. Taverna Opa's meze start at $5 and run to a $10 pork souvlaki, and the whole room turns into a show at 7:00 PM. If you want to stay through the entertainment, Opa hands you the transition; if you want to graze and go, Tapa Toro is the cheaper table.
