They serve burgers however they will run out because they only make them on a daily basis. We are rather late due to our scheduled activities so no burgers for us. But the selection of other items is really great! The restaurant itself has a very unique decor. It reminds me of a small restaurant you would find in the Village of NYC. servers are young but super ON IT and very outgoing and friendly. Try the empanadas... you won't be disappointed! Didn't take any photos of the food because we were so hungry lol. Loved every bit.

This is a good old fashioned watering hole owned and operated by a citizen of the world who is world traveled with a passion for service drinks and human interaction. No games no gimmicks. The owner and the staff are wonderful. Great conversationalists. So very accommodating. The glassware is vintage and I can say, I stayed till close, they sterilize. We didn't have any food service at the hour I arrived but I'm told they do in the day. I'm rating totally on bar. When you're in Paris, you'll be hard pressed to find a bar serving classic drinks in a divey setting. When near by the 1st arr! stop by El Tonel, order a cocktail. Tip well. Be kind. Be present.

Quite possibly the coolest people we have come across during our entire stay in Paris are the guys…read morethat run this place! They were located just outside our apartment door and a block away from the Louvre. First encounter: Arrived in Paris, luggage in hand & map, waiting for our guy to arrive with apartment keys. We are tired and hungry, sit down for a glass of sangria (which is awesome). The server was polite but busy, we asked him a few questions about the map, he turns it a few times at states: "You have a shit map." We all laughed about it. Right next to us were some folks from Spain, so we chatted them up about our next vacation to their country, they spoke no English, but we knew quite a bit of Spanish and were able to converse for a good 30 minutes. They were super warm and friendly. Encounters two, three, four...: El Tonel has a great menu of tapas, the serrano ham and chorizo are awesome, you can have it thinly sliced or on a baguette with some tomato spread. For just 4-5 euro it's a steal. Le Piece de Resistance of the menu are: - Albóndigas - a freaking amazing meatball stew. This is the ultimate comfort food, with meatballs and bean like peas. - Chorizo Tortilla - this is nothing like tortillas we are used to seeing at the grocery store. It's a thick pancake like dish, that is baked in the oven, It contains (I'm guessing here), masa, potatoes, egg, chorizo. Served with a spicy mayo sauce, I could eat one of these every day folks. By the time our trip came to an end these guys were like friends, a few late nights of drinking here were a blast.

Certainly love all the cheese we've had in Paris, but Manchego is a real favorite of mine and we were served two kinds (6 mos and 12 mos) and both were great. The sangria looked great, but we ended up choosing a Rioja that was great.

There was one other group when we started our meal and by the end of the night each table was filled. I totally understand why. The paella is absolutely delicious. Be prepared for a little bit of a wait, the menu says it takes about 30 minutes to cook but it took over an hour. We only got the 2 person size but it was absolutely more than enough. When we were leaving we met Ramona downstairs and she was absolutely hilarious. Overall, an authentic, warm, and welcoming place.

Awesome atmosphere. Delicious food. Just an amazing experience…read more First, the food. The "Tapas Espagnol" were delightful and the assortment had a great variety of different traditional dishes. The "Paella Mixte" was also excellent and I loved the soccarat - the crunchy/caramelized/slightly burnt crust on the bottom of the pan that absorbs all the flavors of the paella. Just mouthwatering. I would recommend ordering some "sangria" to accompany your meal and to make it a little bit more fun. Also, try the grilled calamari! One of the most amazing characteristics of Casa Pepe is its ambiance. The place is a little small but is nicely decorated and feels really homey. During dinner service, two guitarists usually sing and play some traditional-fun music while one lady dances the flamenco. Other people/customers also join in with them, turning Casa Pepe into a really festive dinner experience. It can get really loud but everyone seems to have a good time. The people sitting next to us shared a big bottle of wine with us while we told them to take some of our sangria. Staff here are super friendly. It does get really busy so service may seem a little slow but I would suggest just enjoying the show, savor some good food, and spend a wonderful time with friends or family. Come to Casa Pepe if you want to experience Spain and immerse yourself in its incredible culture. I recommend making a reservation online, on their website or on LaFourchette.com (or TheFork.com) to get a little discount.
