When in Spain, we seek restaurants with authentic (preferably regional) Spanish cuisine, and we try…read moreto find where locals go. Casa Diego was full of Spanish families celebrating Semana Santa, not another foreign tourist in the bunch, which let us know we were in the right place. Their Salmorejo was garnished with tuna and ham (meats vary among sardines, anchovies, chorizo, tuna, shredded chicken, etc) in addition to the standard hard boiled egg. It tasted very fresh and homemade, especially compared to the one my husband had in Cordoba. Casa Diego's Salmorejo had layers of flavor and was very thoughtfully created. I had a salad dinner because I'd had too many meat dishes without roughage and my body needed greens. Unfortunately the salad was mostly iceberg which has very few nutrients, but I appreciated the vegetable intake of some kind. I tried my son's lagrimitas de pollo and patatas, both high quality and very good. Chicken fingers looked homemade, as did the potatoes. My husband got the swordfish, which he said was firm, with good flavor and a a good hint of char. The olive oil complemented the taste. For dessert, my son finally got to try the Tarta de Abuela, which we'd been looking for on every dessert menu across Spain. It too tasted homemade though (per traditional recipe) constructed of cookies and candy elements. It's extremely sweet but definitely worth trying at least once, and delicious to kids! My husband had the Bienmesabe that is specific to Antequera. There are apparently a number of different Bienmesabe dessert recipes (and in Cádiz, Bienmesabe is a tapa of marinated fried fish) but the Antequera version is their own, and various bakeries and restaurants put their own panache into the local sugar/almond/cinnamon/pastry recipe. Casa Diego's Bienmesabe was simple and complex at once, balancing citrus with sweet almond paste, and using pastry to elevate cinnamon and sugar into gourmet delights. The bill was very reasonable especially considering the food quality. Our server was really sweet and helpful. As we finished paying, he let us know the Semana Santa parade was coming down the street. Perfect timing, the float and band passed just as we went out the door. Great experience and will love to return!

This place is relayed to but distinct from the Bodeguita Antonio Romero, which is newer; this restaurant has been family run since 1939. The menu is only in Spanish, but some staff speak English. They have many wine options by the glass and the classic red vermouth, but we opted for house rioja, which was great. Onto food: they have various size options for most dishes, which is nice if you want to try more variety. Atún rojo envuelto en iberico: red tuna wrapped in iberico and the most amazing tomato sauce Bonito en escabeche con pimentos asados: canned bonito but with a nice acid from the escabeche Pringa: their classic sandwich Carilla: pork cheek served on fries, so tender and rich, not overly fatty Espinaca con garbanzo: spinach and garbanzo stew Alcachofa confitada con taquitos de jamon: confit artichoke stew with their ham version of fried, diced pancetta Everything comes out pretty quickly, but every dish has such great home cooked depth of flavor. This is exactly what we were looking for when we wanted a more low key, authentic place. Note: credit cards accepted.

This was one of our biggest disappointments in Spain. Maybe we came on an off night. We asked our…read morehotel for a recommendation for a really good restaurant where locals more than tourists go. This is the spot they told us to visit and after doing some quick research, it seems to appear in several lists for the best tapas/casual restaurants in the area. They told the hotel that they could not offer a reservation but that we should show up a few minutes before they opened and we should have no problem getting a table. We got a little lost on the way and got there right as they opened ... upon checking in, the hostess said about a 45 minute wait. She said that she could likely get us a spot at the bar earlier, which honestly would have been our preference, but we had a toddler in tow and it wouldn't have worked. After about an hour, we were shown to our table. You can order drinks from the bar while you wait, so I was pretty happy by the time dinner came. The drinks are not cheap here, either. The menu looked fantastic ... Although mostly in Spanish, so I had to keep asking my phone what each item was. Overall, everything was okay ... to less than okay. They are 'fakous' for their beef sandwich (pringa, or something of that nature) We each ordered one and they were kind of dry and tasteless. The bread was so dry and dense ... and the beef filling tasted reheated. The fried anchovies were good ... we had better other places. These were a little soggy and more of a filet than the whole fish. The braised pork was the best dish we had ... in a creamy sauce. I am not sure why the meal didn't hit, but we considered it to be average. We did see many locals there, so I am sure it's fairly authentic but it wasn't quite tapas and it wasn't quite dinner. The waitress was a little frosty and told us to speak English because she was busy and our Spanish wasn't great. Fair enough, though we did hope to practice more while in Spain. Overall, you probably won't hate your experience here ... but it performed far below the glowing reviews from our hotel and websites. We liked the food overall much more in Barcelona vs. Seville ... but consider the atmosphere and scenery better in Seville. Maybe we came on an off night, or had too high of expectation.

A waitress arrived after we sat down, I asked her to turn the AC because the tiny room was stuffy, she hesitated and opened a window instead. She took our drinks order and brought them to our table, after that we never saw her again. We kept waiting and waiting but no one showed up, we had to leave due to no service. It's a shame, cause I tried this place before and we enjoyed their tapas. The owners should care much more about hiring professional servers.

A little more expensive than most places, but definitely worth the few cents more. All dishes come beautifully and innovatively presented. Being a drab winter day, I asked for the 'pucherito expreso' (€3.90), and what a spectacle! Puchero is a broth made of various meat-types. It is normally served as a broth with rice or chickpeas and the meat is served as a side, all mushed together and eaten with bread, called 'pringá' (or pringada). My pucherito expresso was served to me from a tiny cafetiere. The waitress poured it for me into a bowl, garnished with a quail egg, and the pringá was in the bottom half of the instrument.
