My wife and I met our friends there and it was such a welcoming experience. We really loved the ambiance and that the restaurant was filled with so many locals. That's always a great sign! Recommendations: 1) For Quesos, try the goat cheese with onion chutney and walnuts. It goes great with the bread basket. 2) For Montados, try one with cream cheese and dried tomatoes and capers, and one with serrano ham and brie. So good!

Waited about 20-30 minutes, then got a table right along the sidewalk next to the entrance. Beer for me, white wine for the wife, and then some tapas to share--gambas a la plancha, pimientos de padrón, calamares fritos, & alcachofas fritas. Everything was delicious, super fresh, and the highlight was for sure the artichokes. Fried perfectly. Service was also great. Food came out fast. Wine flowed. We liked the place so much, we returned a couple days later for breakfast. Hard to beat the view and vibes here.

Located right by the Valencia public market and a five minute walk from the cathedral, this place is great. I came here on my own and it was busy, but I found a table. The servers were all very friendly and accommodating. They have a wide selection of tapas, which are truly traditional and so good. They also offer full dinners / plates here too if you don't want tapas. But seriously, the tapas portions are generous and the best part is they are just the right size to order multiple different kinds of tapas to try. I ordered a Tinto de Verano (summer wine) to drink, which is more refreshing than regular sangria. It's a mix of red wine with Casera, which is a less sweet version of Sprite and a sweeter version of Perrier (so somewhere in between). It's GREAT. Definitely recommend.

Welcoming staff - husband and wife. All smiles and warmth, they were happy to make food and drink recommendations to a Valencia novice that got my evening off to a great start. I had a half-size cheese and meat platter that was freshly prepared and served quickly. A local IPA recommended was a perfect accompaniment. I had to follow up with the smoked sardine tostas- simple yet divine! The sardines were plump and juicy, subtly smoky. Unfortunately these smoky little fish are bought from a fishmonger - nothing I can take back home with me. Afterwards they were happy to suggest some off the tourist track sights to see.

They get a really good sear on the outside and the middle is red...like bright red. But it's delicious and so simple. This was really good stuff and the vermouth was on point. Hope to return.

For example, the last time I went by Pincho y Corto, my friends and I decided to come back for the "cocido" on a future date. Six-and-a-half hours later, we left the restaurant after enjoying a delicious meal. A cocido is usually MEAT, MEAT, MORE MEAT, AND MEAT ON THE SIDE. However, for me, the owners prepared an incredible set of vegetarian dishes that made me very happy. For the first dish (primero), there were blue-cheese-stuffed mushrooms that had been heated perfectly to melt the cheese, along with croquetas de calabaza, with the perfect amount of crunch and savory goodness that made this dish stand out. Usually, croquetas are soft little affairs, tasty but kind of mushy. These were perfect, crunch on the outside and tender (not mushy) on the inside. The flavor was savory and a little sweet from the calabaza. For the second course (segundo), the vegetables in broth were perfect. Garbanzos, carrots, potatoes, and wilted greens made this dish both colorful and tasty. I enjoyed the broth, too, which was a nice complement to the vegetables and replaced the soup that the rest of the table received as the third course. For dessert, there was this puff pastry drizzled with chocolate and dulce de leche (I think... it was hard to tell) that the entire table ate with gusto. Coffee, drinks, and plenty of conversation made this a memorable meal. The total time at the restaurant was 6.5 hours... now where is my badge?
