    House red Rioja
    Anabel M.

    Some of the best food I had in all of Spain was at this restaurant. I'm at a loss for words. From the food to the dining experience, everything was excellent. My friend and I ordered the tuna tartare as an appetizer and wow. The best tuna tartare we've ever had. It was so fresh and paired perfectly with the aioli it came with. As our entree we decided to share a small portion of black squid ink rice with two full portions of pork loin with sweet potatoes. OMG. That rice. It was absolutely amazing!!! I've had black rice in paella before but this was absolutely delicious on another level. This rice was completely black, creamy, almost risotto-like. It tasted fresh and had small pieces of squid. I would have eaten a large portion by myself if I knew just how exquisite the rice was. The pork was cooked perfectly - tender and flavorful. The sweet potatoes completed the dish and added the perfect hint of sweetness. We ordered the house red wine Rioja instead of Ribera Del Duero and enjoyed it so much we each purchased one bottle to bring home! Smooth, slightly fruity and medium-bodied, it went perfectly with our meal. Our server was extremely helpful and the outside seating was spectacular. Absolutely loved every minute of my time here.

    This was hands down my favorite tapas restaurant in Seville. The prices are reasonable considering the high quality tapas they serve. I really enjoyed the tuna tartar with avocados, but all of the other tapas were equally as delicious. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything here. There's an English menu and the servers speak English, which was a very nice touch.

    Seville is our second stop after Madrid and so far this place has the best tapas and sangria! Get the sardines, shrimp burger, pork cheek, oxtail and pan fried cod. The shrimp burger was so good we had to order a second plate! We also got shots after the dinner, which was on the house. Great service and awesome food equals happy customer.

    This place was fantastic. Just a shame I was already full from a night of eating. We decided to stop here because we saw the menu and there was a few interesting things worth trying. The tuna tartar on a potato purée was ok to delicious depending on if you like tartars. It was declicious but maybe because I was full I couldn't quite enjoy it as much but nonetheless the actual dish itself was perfectly done with a balance of not being too acidic. Next up we had the oxtail on corn which was phenomenal. The meat was so tender and it had the right amount of taste to the accompanying sauce. Lastly was the fried cod over abed of veggies. By far my favourite. Loved the perfectly fried fish. Batter was crispy and the fish retained its meaty moisture and texture. Top it off with the fresh veggies it was a perfect dish. The tartar sauce wasnt overly strong which created a fine balance with the fish Service was excellent - no delays. Price point - 2 drinks, 3 well portioned tapas with side bread and olives for 18 euros was more than worth it if you ask me Would come again. Would try dessert if stomach capacity allowed

    Ribs with potatoes. These were good but not amazing

    The arepita with oxtail or arepita de maíz con cola de toro is one of the best things I've eaten. Super tender oxtail with excellent flavor. If you come here you should definitely order this. They also had excellent sangria

    Great food - we had sardines, pork with sweet potato, salads, potatoes, crème brûlée. The pork was thick but amazingly tender.

    I don't think this place really needs another glowing review, but here I am. I stumbled upon it…read morecompletely by chance on the first day of the arrival, after a long drive, simply because it was close to where I stayed. I knew nothing about it at the time, so I wasn't surprised later when I checked Yelp and saw how consistently praised it is. The restaurant sits directly across from the stunning Baroque San Luis de los Franceses (18th century). From the moment I walked in to ask about the menu and timing, the team was incredibly welcoming and patient, carefully explaining how everything works. We took a short walk to explore the neighborhood, got lost on the way back, and somehow found our way back just in time before the restaurant closing. Despite that, the staff remained warm and accommodating, especially when helping us navigate the wine and jerez selections. I was too tired and out of practice with my Spanish, so I reluctantly switched to English, and it was still completely fine. The food was outstanding, exactly as everyone says. There are no substitutions, and once you've eaten there, you understand why! Everything is intentional. They go out of their way to accommodate you within their philosophy and to make the whole "slow food" experience feel thoughtful, relaxed, and special.

    Stopped by to have a late lunch (recommended by a local tour guide) and we were simply swept off…read moreour seats with the creative, delicious and whole-heartedly inspired cuisine we were served. Along with the gracious chefs, owner and servers, our 'happen-by lunch' was a memorable one, indeed! Carole Bumpus, Author of Culinary Travel series, Savoring the Olde Ways.
