My wife and I had the absolute pleasure of eating at Levante. We decided to eat at this location…read moresince it's the original...his son runs the other location in Valencia. To say the food and the service were great is an understatement. Rafael made us feel right at home and easily made this our best meal and service experience on our 10 city trek through Spain. I had read about him and his paella online and I can honestly it's all true! Run here don't walk :) On a side note...Jose Andres flies him out once a year to make Paella in one of his 17 restaurants in the US...it's that good.

This is a great place to enjoy a traditional paella. The location might be far (if you don't have a…read morecar) but is worth it. It is surrounded by rice fields and the restaurant itself is very welcoming. The staff is kind and last but not least the food is really good. We had a vegetarian paella for two (could easily be for 3 because we ended so so full afterwards) for 18€ which I find reasonably considering the quality and quantity. VERY IMPORTANT: if you want a paella you better call for reservation so they can prepare the dish in "advance", once you get there it will be the ready in 30min because they put it in the firewood to finish it

A local friend from Valencia took me to this place on my last day of the trip...would have loved it…read moreif he took me before!!! This place is super good!! It's a little mom and pops kind of a place but the food you get is so good. We got paella, main course and dessert with coffee (they added some, I mean a lot of cognac also). Friendly people and even let us take pictures in the kitchen with the paella while its in the oven. All in all I would definitely recommend this place. Just know its a little drive out of the city but well worth it.
