Not a bad place at all. Good ingredients and attentive service. Pimientos con melva tapa was great…read more Same for the croquetas. Bacalao Dorado was a bunch of fries with egg and a ghost of bacalao taste. We returned it but they charged for it 12 Euros anyway. Trying to get away with a good experience we ordered half a portion of Gambones al Ajillo. The gambones were ok but undercooked. Verdejo wine for 13 Euros. Was ok.

This is only a review of the bar as we ate elsewhere that night (we should have stayed here as it…read moreturned out). Despite its unappetizing name we found De Tripas Corazon to be a refreshing change from the old-school local bars where we usually hang out. De Tripas was well lit, upbeat, trendy and fun. We would consider this to be an ideal date night spot. Located only a few steps away from the Temple of Diana we were concerned we would be overrun with tourists like ourselves but it soon became evident that was not the case. (Perhaps because it was 2230 and most English speaking tourists were already in bed.) They have a vast inventory of liquid libations and we took this opportunity to sample liquors unknown to us. Even though the bartender was slammed she took the time to guide us through our sampling and gave us recommendations (all in Spanish which made it even more adventurous for us). Our favorite was Legendario, a Cuban rum. It soon became our go-to nightcap for the rest of our trip. In retrospect our impression could have been influenced by the number of quaffs...so your number of stars may be vastly different however, we had a good time. If you wish to have food in the quieter upstairs dining room just let the bartender know and she will make the arrangements for you. If we were in Merida again you will be able to find us here.
