We wanted something other than Mexican food, so when we realized there was a tapas/paella place in…read moreTulum, we decided to come for dinner.
We stopped by on a Tuesday evening around 7:30 and it was hopping. The restaurant is two levels and has indoor and outdoor seating both. We were seated outside next to the street.
We started off the meal with complimentary bread, which was amazing as we were starving from a long bike ride earlier.
The menu has a good selection of tapas as well as a couple different types of paella. For the paella, the minimum size they can make is for two people. We tried:
Tortilla de patatas (110 pesos) - we enjoyed this
Chistorra i.e. grilled Spanish sausage (95 pesos) - too salty, had to eat it with the croquetas to make it more palatable
Croquetas de setas (95 pesos) - was okay but had a weird / slightly sweet aftertaste I didn't like
Paella de montana (230 pesos pp) - chicken paella was good. I wish there was slightly less chicken and more rice
I'd say the paella was the best part of the meal. The tapas were a bit hit or miss. But overall it's a cute restaurant with decent food, and we enjoyed our experience here.
