I walked into Via Colon on a lark, and was greeted immediately at the door. I told them that I was cold and asked if they had hot tea. The waitress ushered me over to a table by the window, and promptly brought me tea. She was so nice! I stayed for a meal, and had the BLT. It was good, and certainly satisfied the need. (Probably a 3- or 4-star meal, but I bumped the review to 5 given how accommodating and friendly the staff was. Read on.) After the sandwich, I was onto my 2nd cup of tea, and wanted a pastry to go with it. They have a good selection. The waitress ushered me over to take a look at their pastries at the counter. (Almost had a tapas feel to it, except it was a countertop full of pastries.) I wanted something with fruit in it, and she described some of the pastries they had, but thought I might find them too sweet, and suggested that I might be happier with a blueberry muffin instead. I don't know how she could possibly have known what I would like or wouldn't like, but the muffin ended up being an excellent choice for me (and went well with the tea to boot!). Note: when I was there, no one in the place spoke English. Great chance to practice your Spanish, if you're so inclined, although the dialect can be a bit challenging (but nowhere near as challenging as Malagueño).

The menu features quite a number of tapas, salads, combination plates and desserts - but we were both called to the "Specialties of the House." My wife's vegetarian lasagna was as loaded with flavor as it was with spinach. The pasta was cooked just right; the cheese was... incredible. And the sauce provided just the right amount of saltiness to round it all out. I'd give it a 95 out of 100. I opted for the "Revuelto con Esparrago Fresco y Langostinos." This was a MOUND of fresh, gently sautéed asparagus layered with large, peeled shrimp, and bound together with scrambled egg. Now, I can put away some food, but this was just HUGE. The asparagus was very tasty indeed, as was the shrimp - but there is a limit to how much I can eat, and I just couldn't finish it all! It was DELICIOUS and I wouldn't hesitate to order it again, but would prefer to share with someone. We'd read Linda C.'s review about the carrot cake, and we were sold on that, so... yeah, it was wonderfully presented, and gratefully eaten! All in all, this place merited all five stars.

It was packed with locals but you won't get the same service as a tourist (at least we didn't). Both of us spoke some Spanish but were clearly not fluent, and the waiter was blunt from the start. We ordered two drinks that were supposed to come with tapas - everyone around us got theirs with their drink right away. The waiter didn't bring ours out until much later when a local lady noticed he didn't bring us anything and pointed it out to him. If it wasn't for her, I'm sure he would have assumed we didn't know any better and cheated us. As for the plates we ordered, they were thoroughly average. The patatas bravas were pretty good but didn't stand out compared to others we've had. Maybe our bad experience was due to one waiter, but I still wouldn't go back.

We opted for indoor seating to stay warm versus outside in the cold even though they had gas heaters. Service seemed a little distracted at times but we were provided with a free appetizer which was surprisingly tasty. It was a tuna and mashed potato salad like dish. The chicken soup was simple but warmed us up with the hot broth and bits of chicken and vegetables. It could've been more substantial. The main entree seafood paella was underwhelming in many ways. First it was cooked in a nonstick pan so we didn't get any of the crunchy rice that we've come to expect. There also was a lack of seafood variety inside with just shrimp, calamari and maybe fish so it was rather unexciting to eat. Other places include at least clams and mussels. Lastly it was a bit too salty for our tastes. Maybe their other dishes were better but not impressed with what we ordered.

Environment was a little noisy downstairs due to many customers, but it was slightly more quiet upstairs where we were seated. Digital and paper menus are available, which is great because I prefer paper menu. Our server was a bit short with us but polite and moderately friendly. We just acknowledge that customer service/hospitality culture varies from place to place, of course. No big deal. Food was just ok. Iberico was sliced a little thicker than usual but still flavorful. Bread was delicious. They had a dish, red pepper stuffed with oxtail, that was a crowd favorite. Chicken soup was just chicken shreds with broth and I believe a bit of shredded hard boiled egg? Relatively tasty. It was fine in a pinch , or if you're starving, but definitely wouldn't choose it otherwise and probably wouldn't go back.

Most of the outdoor tables were taken, but we snagged the last two spots at the inside bar. We had a cana (small beer) for 2.50€ and a manzanilla (apple wine I think?) for 2.80€. I've never had apple wine before, but I don't think I'm a fan. It wasn't as sweet as I was expecting and tasted on the drier side. As part of our drinks, we got some complimentary fried fish which was delicious. We also ordered a half portion of the berenjenas fritas (8€), which is fried eggplant. It's served with honey on the side that you can drizzle over the eggplant. I don't like eggplant at all because of the taste and texture, but I couldn't taste that this was eggplant at all, so I really enjoyed it. It was surprisingly good with the honey, and I ended up eating more than I expected to. Casa Julio seems to be known for the berenjenas (pretty much every group ordered it at the bar), so would definitely recommend trying it here!
