Not sure how much this accounts for, but to us this was the best restaurant in all of Barcelona & Sevilla. Simply wonderful and almost enticed for a round 2 but our schedule didn't allow it. We ordered the seafood rice (basically a paella), the garlic clams, and seafood croquette, with wine. We also got complimentary shots and some sort of rolled dessert with cream filling.
First, the croquettes were really crispy fried and piping hot. Once you bit into them however the gooey cheesy goodness almost leaks out (make sure you don't waste any) and believe it or not this dish was ranked the last in comparison to the next two.
Our next dish was recommended by all the other yelpers, and especially Jenny P. Initially i thought it was an exaggeration as I had the first clam, it tasted good but certainly didn't deem worthy to be considered "doing your palate a favor".....that being said as we continue eating, and before we knew it we were fighting for the morsels of clams as well as using the complimentary bread to soak up everything drop of that delicious garlicy butter sauce.
The seafood rice was no different. We thought we had a great paella in Barcelona, but after eating here we simply cannot give the place in Barcelona 5 stars. Unlike the other Paella we ate, the one here didn't have as much texture, but it more than made up for it with flavor. The rice was drenched in a rich seafood and tomato sauce that made carb on carb (rice on bread) a great option. While the rice was good, the best part of the dish (which we unintentionally saved for last) was the head butter of the shrimp which was in the rice. As there was some shrimp flesh left, it served as a great stopper for all the head butter which had chance to absorb all that tomato sauce. Lets just say, we finished 3 baskets of bread that meal and I for one am proud.
As we paid, we were greeted with a plate of complementary shots and crispy almost egg roll like desert which was a great ending to this feast. If you're in sevilla, DO NOT miss out on this place. read more
