This place has easily the best paella that I've ever eaten in my entire life…read more I arrived around 1pm on a weekday and this place was empty so I was a bit worried. However I soon realized all the locals were flooding in a little after 2 when the restaurant was full to the brim. Obviously I had to order the seafood paella which was a thing of pure beauty. The rice was perfectly cooked and was bursting with amazing seafood flavor. The top of the rice was moist and fluffy while the rice on the bottom of the pan was perfectly crispy. The combination of the contrasting textures was a treat for the palette. The prawns and mussels were fresh and sat on top of the rice was highly addictive. The little bits of fish in the rice were light and fluffy and a great addition to the rice. I can highly recommend this place for the paella. I just wish I was able to try the various other paellas they offer!

Although his English is about as good as my Spanish (which means only very basic words) he made himself understood while explaining various items on the menu and truly made the night something special. From helping us pick the right wine to suggesting his favorite things it was a pleasure "talking" to him the entire night. We had both Gazpachos, both delicious with the Almond one winning. The Garlic Shrimp as well as the Rabbit were both very good. How would I describe the meal - home cooking brought to a high level. (His wife Maria does all the cooking with the help of one other person) So with a bottle of wine the bill came to around $66 US. Make a point of visiting Antonio & his family.

The family also produces its own olive oil, in addition to an assortment of wines and pickled olives which can be purchased. Didn't expect the place to be open on Mondays but thankfully it was and we were fortunate enough to reserve the last seating for the evening. We ordered the salmorejo - a cold tomato cream soup with ham and chopped eggs that was invented here in Córdoba. Also a seafood salad (salpicon marisco), hake fillet with grilled vegetables (lomo merluza fresca a la plancha), stewed bull's tail (Rabo de toro), and pastel cordobes ( Cordoban puff pastry with cinnamon stuffed with squash filling). Everything was spectacular and reasonably-priced; not to mention the excellent service we were given. I would definitely go back.

Other than a tasty ham & egg soup, everything that followed for the whole table was practically inedible. I ordered a breaded veal cutlet; what arrived was a thick veal(?) cutlet (?) with an enormous bone, surrounded by fat and gristle. My companion ordered a pork loin that was overcooked to the point of desiccation. A half portion of fried eggplant was gigantic but also dry as a stack of dried out pancakes. Worse still was one of the water glasses had a bleachy stench. What a miserable experience.

The waiters were nice and quickly seated us, but as it got busy, you were forgotten about. The food itself was meh. We came in starving and excited to eat but left disappointed. We had the calamari to start and that was probably the best part of the lunch. My husband had the chicken kabobs which were okay, and I had the mixed plate made up of eggs, shrimp, salmon and eggplant. It was not what I expected based on the description and just wasn't good. Maybe we just ordered the wrong food that led to such a bad experience, but it's not a place I would personally recommend.

She was professional, considerate, and knowledgeable about the foods and wines. And she shared a beautiful smile. AMBIANCE: 5.0. Set in an upgraded small cloister-type courtyard with a pleasant fountain. Open to the sky, yet has a roof that can be extended to completely cover the courtyard in case of rain. Next to the fountain stands a ~750 year-old Roman pillar with an inscription dedicating it to a Roman emperor: this pillar is the source of the name "PATIO ROMANO" because it was discovered buried below the restaurant. FOOD: 4.5. Everything was very fresh and prepared with care. - 4.5: (Seasonal menu): salad with tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, and onions. Everything was at the peak of ripeness. - 4.5: House-style garlic prawns. Exquisite texture and taste. - 4.5: Ratatouille with eggs. - 5.0: (Seasonal menu) Iberian pork with potatoes. The perfect amount of salt with the pork. I don't often comment on potatoes, but these were cooked perfectly. - 4.5: House-made Cheesecake. WINE: 5.0. We each had a wine by the glass. Her rosé and my red were excellent, matching our tastes. Good selection of bottle and glass wines.
