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.

The place is really small with 5-6 bar stools which my sisters and I already took two. There were customers who went away because of overcapacity. We tried the place after reading the rave reviews but thought afterwards that we could have saved ourself the trouble. Each tapas were 3-5 €. The drinks were small so be ready to order several.

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.

However, generally I wouldn't go back for normal menus because it's pretty expensive for the kind and the quality of food they have. Even so the atmosphere is nice.

The paella is served in 2 person portions since we were 3 we had to order either 1 pan or 2 pans. We ended up getting 2 pans. The food did take alot of time to prepare as they are made fresh to order. We order black squid ink paella and the seafood paella. The black paella was really good and taste was on point. The seafood paella was too salty and we had to drink alot of water after our meal. We did encounter an issue with our order they brought some croquettes and hot peppers to our table. We did not order them and asked them to take it away. Overall the meal was good but if I had a chance to redo it I should have tried the duck paella or the Valencia paella (rabbit and chicken). Thank you for the memorable meal and we were able to dine on the heated patio with some fellow guests on our tour.
