The story
SER Restaurant, located at 1110 N. Glebe Road in Arlington, Virginia, brings the spirit of Spanish cuisine to the greater Washington dining scene. Its inclusion in the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence recipients speaks to a commitment that goes beyond the plate — a wine program carefully assembled to complement the bold, honest flavors that define Spanish cooking.
The Wine Spectator Award of Excellence is not handed out casually. It recognizes restaurants that demonstrate genuine depth and thoughtfulness in their wine selections. For a Spanish restaurant, this kind of recognition carries particular weight: the Iberian Peninsula produces some of the world's most distinctive wines, from the structured reds of Rioja to the crisp whites of Galicia, and pairing them well with food requires real expertise. SER has earned that acknowledgment.
Open for both lunch and dinner, SER offers flexibility for those looking to explore Spanish cuisine whether on a weekday afternoon or an evening out. Arlington's dining scene has grown considerably in recent years, and SER holds its own as a recognized destination within it — a place where the wine list alone is reason enough to make a reservation.
