Incredible service in a tiny little tapas car. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was fun.read more

I came here due to a yelp recommendation because like most westerners unaccustomed to the Spanish way of living I was hungry at about 7 pm and needed something to eat. Yay yelp to the rescue. The place was crowded and there were no seats available when I arrived. There were many small groups congregated around tables and a few couples as well. It isn't obvious how to proceed once you come in the door so I probably stood there awkwardly for a few minutes near the door before making my way to the bar to what looked to be a vacant seat. A gentleman informed me that it belonged to his girlfriend so I was forced to now stand awkwardly next to the bar. Bar tender to the rescue explaining that if I waited he was pretty sure someone would leave soon and I could order a drink while I waited. I ordered a sangria and also inquired about food but was told that I need to have an actual seat in order to order food. After nursing my drink for about 20 mins when I was about to pay and head out to find somewhere else to eat, a spot finally opened up and I was treated to the most delicious steak and potatoes and zucchini tapas. This had to be one of the most delicious things I have eaten on this vacation. When I finally vacated my seat to save a pair of new arrivals, there was a line outside of people waiting for the opportunity to eat here. I might chance it again before I leave Seville. I highly recommend for the food and friendly waiters but wish there was a way to turn seats over more quickly. One guy kept insisting he was saving his girlfriend's seat but in the 90 mins I spent there she never showed up. Who knows if she ever existed. Bread comes free with your tapas order and really complimented the meal.

We ordered the Spanish potato omelette and it was so good specially with the fresh tomato salad that was seasoned perfectly. The grilled squid was delightful . Lots of options in the menu.

I highly recommend the pescaditos fritos and the artichoke appetizer, but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

Some of our favorites were the mushrooms and chorizo, pork & cheese, smoked salmon, and pork cheek. Mushrooms were just a great pairing of textures and flavors. Pork with cheese was really salty and flavorful. They gave a very generous portion of salmon with dill sauce. The pork cheek was super tender although maybe a tad underseasoned. Overall the food was was very tasty. The place was extremely crowded; we got there relatively early for dinner and sat at the bar. The place was completely packed and there was a constant line so I'd recommend making a res if you're able.

We had the tapa of the day (melon with smoked salmon and shrimp) and the bacalao al carbon. Everything was super tasty. The bacalao looks super weird like everyone says, but is super juicy on the inside. 100% recommend this place.

We got there right when it opened and they had a couple of drinks all ready for the regulars. A cana and some wine. I sat down and ordered a beer, which was great. I think it is a son and dad that run the place. The son speaks pretty good English. He was super nice as well. I ordered a prawn omelet and octopus. The dad made my perfect omelet. It was so good, The octopus was super chewy and great as well. I also ordered a blue cheese and ham sandwich. It was like a warm pressed panini sandwich and the sharp Roquefort melded with the ham wonderfully. I would totally get this again! I ordered another beer and enjoyed the dark bar atmosphere. It was a great respite after about 7 miles of walking. I would totally recommend this out of the way tapa bar, it was really cool inside.
Happy to have found some authentic tapas in Seville!…read more The service here is above average as what you would expect in Spain. The guy that helped us I think is one of the sons of the owner and he speaks good English. We ordered some a small beer, red wine (vino tinto), and of course tapas: shrimp in oil, octopus, cured meats, and an omelette. Everything is super good and reasonable priced. I highly recommend.

We stood at the bar and ate. The staff is friendly and they have English menus. We ordered olives, pork medallions in whiskey sauce, suckling pig, prawns in a brick dough and black ink rice with cuttlefish. All were small portions. And a couple radler beers. We decided the best was the juicy and flavorful suckling pig. Excellent. The prawns were also a hit. The service was quick and it is a fun as atmosphere. The prices reasonable for the quality of the food. Recommended. Get there early. Supposedly they are open for lunch.
