They were short staffed, but did their best to respond to our order. The Tinto de Verano was very good and my catch of the day was fantastic! The croquettes were standard, but the shrimp were very good. My wife's need Tenderloin was very good as well. Only complaint is the bill, but you pay for the atmosphere.

First, we were told "5 minutes," while they cleaned a table for us and they ushered us to the bar. A different waiter gave that table to another couple who just walked in. The table we got was never set with placemats or utensils, including after the food was brought. The waitress acted like it was a great inconvenience that we needed utensils to eat. Food was so-so and flavorless. Had to ask for salt and pepper, which took a good 5 minutes to be brought. No one ever asked to refill our drinks. It took more than 15 minutes to get the check (having to ask the same waitress twice). When she brought our change, she slapped down a "reserved" sign on our table and began spraying it with glass cleaner while we were still seated. Absolutely rude.

It is the place to be for dinner in the summer which will make you wait for a table really long (30 minutes at least) but it is totally worth it. The rest of the year it is very calmed and nice to be there. Also during the summer they only offer tables outside, leaving the inside area empty. During the winter time, the do offer tables both outside and inside.

After reading all the positive reviews, we decided to try Puratapa on a Saturday evening. They do…read morenot take reservations and some outside tables were already full at 7:45pm, waiting for them to open. We really wanted a seat inside, so that was fine. The menu are chalkboards on two walls. They are only in Spanish language. The atmosphere is hectic. My boyfriend and I ordered 6 different tapas and a sparkling water and 0,0 beer. Olives and a bread basket were immediately placed on the table. They had 6 waiters who provide attentive service. We watched plate after plate being served outside. Finally, my Hamburguesa Ternera arrived. Then my Hummus Tapenade arrived and shortly after that, my Pate de Ave. I had finished and was sitting a good 20 minutes before my boyfriend received his first plate,Tataki Atun. Pretty much all the people seated outside, even those who came after us, had finished their plates by now. Another 15 minutes passed before by boyfriend received his Bikini de Rambo and Bikini Bacalao at the same time. It was obvious the kitchen could not handle the Saturday dining crowd. They were making one type of tapa at a time to fill all orders for them. My Pate was good. I have had better hummus at a neighboring restaurant. My boyfriend's Bikini Bacalao was supposed to have guacamole. The sandwich was somewhat tasteless. When he removed the bread, there was none to be seen. He asked the waiter where the guacamole was. The waiter looked and pointed to a tiny unseen fleck on the bread and said that was the guacamole. The check was 33€ which included a 1€ fee for cutlery and 10% IVA. I don't see how this is considered the top tapas restaurant in the vicinity. We have had better experiences elsewhere.

If you want to sit in the air conditioned area with nice tables with cloths, no tapas. That is reserved for those having dinners. Those wanting tapas are confined to the bar area or the verandas. Fortunately, when the temp is 95° outside, the bar area has ac. A server came to take our order at 8pm sharp. The tapas menu is in English and Spanish. My boyfriend and I ordered 6 different tapas: 1/2 portion Boquerones, Russian potato salad, sesame ahi tuna, fried Camembert, chicken Pate, melon & mint gezspacho soup. We drank sparkling water and 0,0 beer. The obligatory bread basket with 2 rolls was brought to the table and contained the utensils, too. The tapas were being served "assembly line" as in everyone who ordered a specific tapa got it at the same time. My boyfriend got his Russian potato salad & Boquerones, while I sat and watched him eat. Then my Pate came. There were 3 tiny toasts with it and not nearly sufficient for the amount of pate. My boyfriend's ahi tuna arrived and was a huge portion. Last to be served was my gezspacho. I had really wanted to start with it. It was excellent. Empty bottles were removed from the table. My glass sat empty for a good 20 minutes and no one asked if I wanted another sparkling water. The atmosphere was hectic with the servers rushing outside to attend to those sitting on the veranda. We asked for the bill and paid leaving it on the table. No one collected it or said "thank you" or "bye bye." Another couple was waiting for our table. The bill was 29€, which included 1,20€ "complementos." I felt like the atmosphere was to turn table as fast as possible - assembly line.

The ambiance is muy pijo and gorgeous especially the outdoor dining area, we had the pleasure of having the whole area to ourselves because we dined there on Monday afternoon. I heard it gets crowded at night, which doesn't surprise me.The service too is excellent, the staff is super friendly and gave me free tinto de verano, jamon Iberico, and cafe cortado! Graciaaaas!! I had the following: 1)almejas: this clam dish cooked in delicious garlicky broth was amazing! I kept dipping the bread(ooooh the bread!!! So delicious!!) in the broth! 2) berenjenas fritas - this fried eggplant dish is served with 2 dipping sauces; honey and thick creamy sauce. I prefer honey, loved the combo of sweet & savory! 3) arroz negro - hands down the best!! It comes with a generous amount of seafood in it too! Que rico!!! 4) helado con piñas - simple and light but delicious dessert! I highly recommend this place! For two persons we spent about €75, which I thought was not bad for the quality of food and the ambiance. I would definitely go back!!!!

The staff was so friendly and helpful they actually suggested a half portion for the eggplant and even that was more than enough for two. The beef tenderloin special was exquisite.

A must visit and the most friendly Michelin star we have ever visited.
