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!

A tapas bar with spacious patio right at the foot of the Mercado Central. Okay, okay. It caught our…read moreattention with how busy it was, so we talked to the staff and put our name on the list (I always go by Juanito in Spain). 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.

Another awesome spot for a meal & drinks in Valencia--it's very centrally located too! We were on…read moreour way to a cocktail bar and another spot, but quickly stopped in for a bite and two vermouths. Happy we did too cuz one of the spots we were headed to ended up being closed for the day (COVID hours). We shared an order of the entrecot (cooked on the plancha and served with fries and padron peppers). Rare. And hey, Spanish places know how to cook something rare haha. They get a really good sear on the outside and the middle is red...like bright red. But it's delicious and so simple. This was really good stuff and the vermouth was on point. Hope to return.

As an upscale restaurant I must admit the food and the service as well as the atmosphere was well…read moreabove par. The staff really couldn't have been more professional. But also being somewhat upscale they were a little more formal than obviously a casual place. Once seated we were told we had 2 hours to finish our meal which is a very long time for just two Americans eating. The only issue I have is that our food arrived amazingly fast I mean like maybe under 5 minutes post ordering. After that the staff kept coming by asking if they could clear my plate because I eat quite a bit faster than my companion, my wife. They asked me two to three maybe even four times if they could clear my plate which really was unwelcome since we had 2 hours to finish our meal. As I stated earlier the food was really really good if you check out my photos the atmosphere was really nice. I am an architect and can really appreciate nice design and configurations. I would gladly go back and run to recommend this place I do know my wife stated the same issue I outline regarding being rushed and they said that they would adjust it. I would gladly revisit the establishment and when we return back to the Valencia I plan on going there once again. I highly recommend it especially the steak that was very well cooked perfect for our desire which was rare.

This was a Michelin rated restaurant and obviously thrives on the fact. Reservations are required…read more The sittings are timed but sufficient to allow for one to enjoy the varied and tapas style cuisine. We could only get two stools at the bar which might likely have suited a more romantic and younger couple. Despite this setback due to a previous day in-person last minute reservation the food and ambiance was excellent. Must say despite the frantic activity the staff were friendly, helpful and courteous. Our shared dishes were Grilled Sardines, Black Sausage (the best we've ever tasted), Cod Croquettes (nothing exceptional), Pimentos de Padron & Salad. The wine by the glass was good bit I'd skip the local region French style overly expensive Sauvignon Blanc and stick to Verdejo or other Spanish wines on offer. This is not a restaurant for a relaxing or a laid back evening. I don't think the servers feet ever touch the ground and the kitchen must be volcanic! Great value and well worth a one-off experience. Our meal €64.35 for 2 and like many tourists was rounded up to $65.00. We might be tempted to return but definitely only to sit at a table.

It's pretty easy to make one online and there are usually plenty of options available. 2. 40 euro for a tasting menu and bottle of wine!?! Sign me up to do this once a week please. 3. Adorable ambiance and vibe. It felt so cozy and just a nice spot to have a relaxed dinner with friends/loved ones. 4. Incredible sweet staff. If you can, Jamon Jamon should definitely be on the list of places to eat in Valencia.

It was definitely an excellent recommendation! Intimate ambiance, excellent service, and superb food! We stopped by at 20:00 and there was a sign on the door that said they were full and recommended making reservations. We were able get on their website and make reservations for a party of four at 21:30 that same night. Definitely recommend making reservations. Recommendations: 1) On the "To Share" menu, try the goat cheese with tomato jam. So delicious! 2) For the main, my wife ordered the Huevos Rotos with organic farm eggs and candied potatoes. She loved it! 3) For my main, I ordered the Iberian Bacon glazed with orange and roasted carrot cream. By far my best meal in Valencia!
