Bulla Gastrobar, a traditional Spanish tapas and small plates restaurant, is now open for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch in SouthPark. It’s their 7th location.
Hours are Sunday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. I visited the restaurant on Tuesday (its grand opening day) and had lunch at the bar with only two other groups.
Pronounced “Boo-ya,” this tapas spot with a modern vibe is located at 4310 Sharon Road, Suite W01 in the space formerly occupied by Chuy’s.
