Went for the Pringa sandwich, and it definitely lived up to the hype. Crispy, fresh, great flavors. The Espinacia garbanzo was decent too. Lots of customers but was immediately seated. Fast, friendly service. read more

Fabulous food and staff. Must have the Pringa. The staff was wonderful and helped in menu selection. Arrive early because it fills up fast

This food was great. Went with a friend that said she didn't like fish and was a convert after the salmonettes. I can't get enough of the fried aubergines with the honey. We got there just as it opened and that was smart because it is small and fills up fast. Go tapas and sit outside and watch the world go by. read more

We came here because my husband saw someone on YouTube recommended & because it's on YouTube it must be true, right? We waited half an hour for a table at 3 in the afternoon (didn't know they close at 4:30 before reopening for dinner). Food was so so so bad. Service was mediocre. They have a "famous" pringa which is a small sandwich with about 2 spoons of stewed pork - picture below cut in half. Also had a shrimp something that had no shrimp but tasted of bacalao. I love fried food but this was just gross. There were a couple other tapas that I also refused to eat. $50 euros and left hungry. It's not even charming ambiance. You'd have better luck trying places on the Calle San Jacinto. read more

Bodeguita Romero - Pringa - Spanish Near Me - Seville, SE

Not for the faint-of-heart tourist! We arrived right at the alleged opening time of 8pm, but they didn't open until 8:30. Fortunately this allowed us to get in right away - as soon as the doors opened, people in line behind us were rushing inside! The food was delicious, though we were disappointed they had already run out of the papas aliñás and boquerones fritos we wanted to try during the lunch service. The asparagus dish and tortillita de camarones were highlights. I've heard their pringá is quite famous, but it was a bit plain to me. The servers were super busy and visibly stressed, but were still helpful. If you want an authentic local experience this is a great place to go, just be prepared for a huge and lively crowd! read more

Great tapas and cost. Loved the choices and lived up to the hype. Would recommend for sure.

Great atmosphere, crowded all day long. Very clean and the staff is professional. Didn't try any food as we are stuffed from other places. Come check it out, neighborhood vibe from all the clien read more

Bodeguita Romero - Seat at the bar facing sherry casks and their Iberico Jamon. - Spanish Near Me - Seville, SE

Came here to try the Montadito de Pringá or stewed pork sandwich for which this restaurant is famous for. On menu it is listed as "la autentica Pringá." Didn't disappoint. Meat was tender and tasty, bread was warm and crunchy. Didn't want to eat too much for lunch on a busy sightseeing day so the tapas version (we ordered 4) was the perfect size. Would advise to come early or ?make reservations (not sure if they accept) as this place is tiny and fills up fast. We arrived just a few minutes prior to opening lunch time 1pm and the place filled within 10 minutes. read more

This is a great local tapas bar, close to the bullfighting ring with good vibes. We ordered the slow braised pork cheek, asparagus, spinach, cuttlefish meatballs, and cod croquettes. The slow braised pork cheek was excellent - you can definitely taste the slow braise. It was so succulent, juicy and packed with umami flavor. The spinach was hearty and warm, it tasted almost like a spinach stew and was excellent. Unfortunately, I thought the other dishes did not taste like anything and were too soft in texture... almost like baby food. Tip on the beer: if you order one, you'll get about 1/4 of a pint unless you specify for a large (which is still about 3/4 of a pint). read more

Came for dinner and tried a lot of things on the menu. One tip - come early to score a table. We were there a few minutes before the restaurant opened and there was a line already. Scored an outside table and proceeded to start ordering. Must haves - montadito pringa, carrilada iberico and bacalao a la plancha. All 3 items were great. Also tried the tortillata camarones, boquerones, and revuelto de bacalao which were all very good. I particularly liked the scrambled eggs mixed together with the salt cod. A dish that is more unique is the menudo de ternera (tripe stew) which was very good but also an acquired taste. The esparrgos was OK. Would definitely come back and eat here again. Great place to eat tapas in Seville. read more

We arrived in Seville after a 4.5 hr drive and needed to indulge in a late lunch. Bodeguita Romero was steps away from the room we rented and there was a table outside calling our name. The waiter didn't speak much English (if any) but between my broken Spanish, and his ability to provide great service, we made it work! We very much enjoyed all of our waiter's recommendations; everything was delicious. We'll probably be stopping in again tomorrow to have another of the lightly battered salted cod and to try a couple more items. I could have eaten 10 of those delicious fish dishes. I must add the prices are fair! Amazing service and amazing food. Highly recommend! Be cautioned they close for a few hours in the late afternoon/early evening so plan accordingly. read more

Excellent tapas bar in seville. There seem to be a few with rather similar names, but this one has some amazing food. We went here for dinner around 9:30 and sat at the bar. Drinks: Manzanilla sherry- quite dry. Not quite my thing. Vino tinto de verano- nice. But all the ones in seville have a slight rancid taste. Vino blanco- asked for a medium to sweet. This was great. All drinks were recommended by one of the guys behind the bar. What we ate: ordered everything in tapas sizes. Chickpeas and spinach(v)- excellent. Perfect for vegetarians. Had a touch of cumin. Tortilla espanya(v, eggs)- this was nicely done and very filling. Grilled cut of bacalou- amazingly tender fish. Saw lots of locals getting this and just pointed and asked got the same. Pork cheek- amazing. Probably the best dish here. Very tender and amazing flavors . Would go back for this. read more

Seville was our last stop of our Spain Trip so we were pretty tired of eating tapas however this place was highly recommended by our airbnb host so we stopped by. We really wanted to try the oxtail and it did not disappoint. It was flavorful and moist, tender, amazing! However we did come back on another day late at night and they were sold out :( And we had another friend come back on a weekend around 3pm and it was also sold out. We also tried the famous stewed pork cheek (their most popular dish) and it was also super yummy! I would recommend as well. The pringa montadito was okay. It tasted like a pulled pork sandwich without the sauce but our friend really liked it! Everything here was reasonably priced. Definitely a good spot to hit up in Seville! read more

Wonderful little bar with fantastic food. Insanely busy during high time, so expect to wait and have to fight your way to a bar seat or a coveted table. They are known for their pringa sandwich which doesn't disappoint. You can probably end up pounding 3 or 4 of these, but you'll want to try the other dishes they have. The braised beef cheeks and spinach with garbonzo were particularly tasty. Locals definitely flock to here, so it's super crowded, but it's worth the work! read more

Bodeguita Romero - Beef cheeks and spinach with chick peas - Spanish Near Me - Seville, SE

I love restaurants like Bodeguita Romero, where it's always crowded with locals so you know it's a hot spot. We came here twice in our 3 day stay in Seville because we were trying to get the ox tail stew! Unfortunately we didn't get to try it :( hence the -1 star. BUT everything we tried here was FRESH and delicious, seafood included. Besides the ox tail, they are also known for their pork cheek. The meat is literally pull apart and not dry at all. The sauce went great with the meat, and you could tell it's been cooking for hours! My other favorite dish was the fried cod. It's a small, but THICK piece. Whenever I get a fried piece of fish somewhere, it's always a thinner piece and OVERCOOKED. This piece was perfectly cooked -- still flaky and moist! The bf claims this was his favorite restaurant on our whole Spain trip because of the vibe and food quality! **If there's a wait, let the man outside know how many people are in your group. He somehow mentally keeps track of everyone waiting and will tell you where to sit when a table becomes available. Don't just walk in and grab a table if there are people waiting outside! read more

This is a wonderful and intimate restaurant that gets filled up 10min after open. We found it on Yelp based on good reviews for serving delicious, authentic food. The reviews were spot on. We arrived 10min before open at 20:00 (typical for Spanish restaurants) and grabbed a table, soon all the tables filled out with people standing next to bar to wait for tables. Some were tourists as it's close to sights, but many patrons are locals! We ordered a variety of tapas - Iberian ham, potato and sausages, stewed spinach, fried jalapeños cod, chick peas with spinach, and braised pork. Oh, the pork was heavenly, bursting with flavor in the mouth. We also liked the cod a lot. It was fresh, tender, with just a hint of jalapeños. My son loved the potato with sausages. the portions were generous, we had to work hard to finish all the food. Staff was very friendly too, fast service. read more

If you like pork, are adventurous, come on in. I was looking for the Sevilla classic of braised pork cheeks (Carrillada de Cerdo) and the internet led me to Bodeguita Romero. We came in after a walking tour and were hungry, which unfortunately meant we went for the full racions (full plates to share) so ended up with too much meat and took some home. Every dish we got though was excellent and had you licking the plate for every last drop if you could. We were very meat focused and went for the pork cheeks, stewed oxtail (which our tour guide earlier told us about and that it is bull tail - quite a special treat), tripe (menudo) and spinach with chickpeas. In hindsight, would recommend getting tapas or most 1/2 racions to try a few things and not get way to full like we did. Still, everything super tasty, they have a good rotating wine selection too, I got the mazanilla one because my very limited Spanish had me thinking that was a mash of apple and vanilla. Why came was a refreshing crisp (and yes appley!) white wine. Not a traditional pairing with dark meats by any means but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. read more

This place sucks. Overpriced food for small portions. Terribly poured Beers. I got two beers both of them didn't pass the halfway point on the glass. When we sat down, without saying a word, they gave us a basket of bread that was on top of our knives and forks, and then charged us for the bread. Highly recommend walking another 4 or 5 minutes to go somewhere that is not a completely terrible business. Food was 3/5, but the terrible service and prices made it a 1/5. Please don't waste your money. read more

My sister and I stopped by for some tapas and drinks at the bar. It was packed with locals which is always a good sign. We shared 3 tapas (about 3 euro each): squid meatballs, rabo de toro (bull tail), and the pork cheeks. All 3 were pretty large and delicious, the bull tail was falling of the bones, the pork cheeks were incredibly tender as well. Definitely recommend this place! read more

Bodeguita Romero - Pringa - Spanish Near Me - Seville, SE

Cheap and delicious. I had pork cheek, cuttlefish meatball and marinated potato. Can't really describe how moved I was when that slow-cooked pork cheek melted in my mouth. I also loved the meatball even though it's too soft and cannot be compared to pork cheek to some extents... but I love that flavor. Marinated potato was recommended by waiter and that's quite a good balance. Went there twice before I left. Ordered sausage and pringa this time. Sadly they didn't offer oxtail so I just had pork cheek again :3 since I'm not a mater in sausage reviews I choose not to expose my ignorance in this field. But pringa was FABULOUS. ATTENTION: some dishes would be prepared in a loooooong time (slow cooked dishes such as pork cheek and meatball). And sometimes kitchen seems to be incredibly busy, which makes delivery of food to your table even slower. Make sure that you have enough time and patience (and perhaps timely and positive communication with waiters?). It took me approximately one hour to wait for the first time and 45mins for the second. read more

I heard this place was famous for its montadito de pringa, so I tried one, as well as the stewed pork cheek. The montadito de pringa was very tasty. The pork and sausage are savory, and I really like the toasted bun, though the sandwich is a bit dry. I also really enjoyed the pork cheek. A good traditional and cheap dish, the meat was very moist. It seems like this place is very reliable for traditional Andalusian tapas. There are probably other bodegas with similar food, but at least the prices are cheap. read more

A three-generation tapas bar in Sevilla that blew my socks off. By far the most incredible food I had during my week and a half of Andalucian eating. The marinated potatoes soaked in olive oil so that they are perfectly tender and luscious are genius. The pringa mortadito, a grilled little round sandwich with the holy trifecta of black pudding, chorizo, and pulled pork is simultaneously flavorful, tender, crispy, warm, succulent, and incredible. It's squarely within last meal on earth territory. And the pork cheek stew here is tender as could be, almost beefy, and the best I've ever had. Finally the spinach and chickpeas were tasty and very cuminy, which I liked but the rest of my party did not love. I'll dream about this place for awhile to come. The decor is by no means fancy. And it's closed Sunday evening and Monday. I am arranging my last day in Seville around a last meal here. read more

Wow! This place was awesome! The excellent food, good service, pleasant outdoor seating, and reasonable prices made for a lovely dinner. My husband and I shared the following tapas: 1) pringa - pork sandwich (rich and tasty) 2) solomillo de whiskey (pork tenderloin in a garlicky whiskey sauce, served with potatoes) - amazing! 3) presa - grilled Iberian pork - quite good 4) berejenas (eggplant with honey) - delicious! 5) salmorejo - tomato soup with ham (just ok - the only dish here that didn't impress us - we had a better salmorejo at Casablanca in Seville a couple nights ago) 6) stewed pork cheek - melt in your mouth awesome! 7) Padron peppers - quite good (though we've had better in Madrid and Barcelona) 8) Piononos - traditional dessert - very good! Our wines were also quite good, and my husband enjoyed his Sherry (the manzanilla this area is known for). The service was friendly and the food came out quickly. We sat outdoors on a high table in front of the restaurant - it was a perfect 75 or so degrees at 10:00pm on a mid-September night. Note - this is a popular spot, and we grabbed the last table outside when we arrived around 9:15pm. So, if you're American tourists like us and don't mind eating "early," you may want to arrive before 9:00pm to be sure you get a seat. Wonderful place! read more

This place is absolutely OUTSTANDING. I saw reviews about 'surly waiters' and honestly people, if you have a smile on your face and say 'gracias' I don't know anyone who wouldn't reciprocate the same! I found the waiters to be sufficiently friendly and knowing some high school Spanish was enough to communicate. Some reviewers complained that they don't speak English there. Duh, we're in Spain!! Speak their language! I digress... The famous 'pringa'...toasted pork sandwich with chorizo and blood cake. Sounds like a dry sandwich but the flavors of the meats came through and were fine on their own. Didn't need sauce or cheese (and shouldn't) to mask the wonderful meat flavors. GET IT!!! Carrillera Iberica (pork cheek stew)...oh my this was heavenly!! Easily the star of the show! I tried the fried potato slices doused with the gravy first and it was sooooo amazing! The potatoes were perfectly fried and still slightly crispy. The pork cheek was fork tender and luscious with whole peppercorns in the sauce. GET IT!!! Tortilla Patatas...skip! Basically a dry potato cake wedge. Wasn't worth filling in my tummy so I didn't finish it. Menudo...maybe get it. I am Chinese and love a good tripe stew but this one was just too fatty and sticky on the lips. Good to share but a small tapas plate of this was too much for one person. Conclusion: GO! Order what I recommended and learn a few Spanish words and try not to act like America owns/runs the world and you'll have a great time! read more

I feel like a total failure (for not ordering the Pringa). Traveling abroad means limited data usage, which means not being able to rely on Yelp/Internets for what to order at a new place. That being said, I think we did A-OK with our orders at Bodeguita Romero. We decided to start our night at this tapas spot, and noticed that many others seemed to be enjoying themselves too. We came early enough to get a cozy spot at the bar, glazed over the menu and placed our orders. + Garbanzos and Spinach - Really good! Super duper flavorful... Moroccan tendencies with some of the flavor profiles.. We're not vegetarians we just wanted something with fiber after all the bread we'd been eating + Lomo w/ a paprika based sauce - I think I thought it was going to be more like a chimmichurri for some reason, but when we got it was more paprika-y. Good, I would probably order this with sherry next time instead though. + Racion of Artichokes & Jamon - This was really tasty and simple. It was a pretty hefty portion of artichokes, and the jamon was of course a highlight. Get the Pringa you guys! I didn't get to try it and I'm totally having FOMO. read more

This place was crowded with locals. We had Spinach and Chickpeas (I think it was too salty, but my fiancé liked it), Cuttlefish ball (do not order this - did not taste good at all), Pork Cheek Stew (just okay, a bit too salty) and Pringa (the best Pringa in all Seville). In Summary, all of the food was average except the Pringa. We only spent 13 Euro for all of these Tapas. Very cheap dinner. I gave 4* because of the PRINGA!!! read more

This small traditional and authentic tapa bar is located half a mile from the Seville central area. We walked all the way here for dinner because our car was parked nearby. This bar was packed when we walked in. After some time of standing at the bar, a kind couple gave us their spot on the way out. We ordered couple of glasses of Sangria and around 5-6 tapas and try to take in all the vibe and madness of a typical tapa bar since this was our last dinner in Spain. read more

This place was so good! We luckily got there when they were opening for dinner so we were able to get seated righted away. Loved all the tapas we ordered. We had fish, potatoes, sandwiches. Everything was delicious. I also got a sangria which I think was the best sangria I've had in all of Seville. And everything was so reasonably priced too. The bf and I tried to go back there for lunch a couple of days later, but it was packed and the wait was too long, so we only got to eat there once during our trip. The service is great and friendly. When you're in Seville, you gotta go there. read more

We came right as they opened up for dinner at 8 and there was already a line. Once the door opened the place got packed within a few minutes.

*looks at previous reviews, smacks forehead* Yup we probably shoulda got the Pringa! Either way, we loved our meal and the service at Bodeguita Romero. It was the prime place to start our night of tapas hopping. We sat at the bar, had a few drinks, shared a few tapas, paid the bill (a teeny tiny amount), and were on our way to the next. Shared here: Espinacas con Garbanzos--We needed something green. But this was so much more than something green. It was PACKED with flavors and had a nice Moroccan touch to it. Oh and I have to comment on the crunchy bread it came with--a slice that I believe was fried in olive oil. That bread, topped with the spinach and garbanzos, completed the PERFECT BITE. Every texture you could ever need, in one simple bite. Solomillo w/a Pepper Sauce of sorts--The dish was solid. Not great. Still solid tho. The sauce got better after each bite. And the potatoes were left to soak in the sauce, which is always a good call. Marinated Artichokes w/Crispy Jamon--Another solid dish. We were clearly aiming for some veggies. The jamon bits were the best part tho...and plentiful. Thanks for that. It was a hearty dish. A racion, not a tapa. Glad we arrived a little early (just before 9pm) to avoid the rush. We hear(d) it gets quite crowded there. read more
