    Squid was well seasoned and plated with tasty garnishes and sauces, but it was a bit overcooked and rubbery. The burrata was really good with a nice mix of fresh ingredients. The risotto was rich and creamy, no real notes. Rabbit tacos were super disappointing. The meat had the texture of pulled pork but with the flavor of boiled chicken breast. Wine and cocktails were all excellent and the indoor decor is great, reminding me of an indoor plaza meets wine bar.

    Absolutely delicious. I've been going to El Pintón since shortly after it opened, and always find something new on their menu to try. Yesterday, it was their delicious Carillera de Cerdo Ibérica. My only complaint was that it could've been bigger! Fair enough, more excuse to "tapear" and try the menu. The service is kind and informative, if a little slow. Our waitress recommended the cocktail Ambrosía, which was a melon knockout. The risotto, too, was great. Lovely spot with lovely ambiance across the few dining rooms (or with space to sit outside). Enjoy!

    El Pintón is an innovative tapas spot located in a colorfully designed street in Sevilla. It has a chic Mediterranean taste. Sitting outside was exquisite, as the weather was perfect and the street nor restaurant was not too crowded or deserted. The food, however, was one of the best tapas we have had in Spain thus far. My favorite was the huevo tempura trufado, which is a tempura fried egg with truffle cream. The prices were affordable for a restaurant of this caliber. We walked in without a reservation, but I recommend making one to ensure getting a table. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Sevilla!

    I was intrigued with this place because of their selection of drinks and cocktails! Made a reservation here for my birthday on our first day in Seville. As most restaurants, they have both indoor and outdoor dining but we were seated inside. Our server was kind enough to speak to us in both English and Spanish. They ran out of a few menu items, but still had plenty of options for us to choose. Since we had a fairly late lunch, we each ordered a drink - mine was the combination number 3 I believe. The server actually brought a glass of ice, ginger beer and Jack Daniels Etiqueta Negra (think of the drink as a Moscow mule but instead of vodka it's with a smoky Jack Daniels). She gave me a hefty pour if liquor that she poured into the glass of ice and even asked me if I wanted more. As I'm not a big drinker, I politely refused and accepted what she poured in. I love ginger beer and wish the ginger beer it was served with was spicier. We shared a salad and a burger. The salad had nuts and corn bits, which in my opinion was not edible and too hard to chew. The burger was delicious though and easily big enough to share between two people. It's ground beef but tasted so different and much better than the ones in the US. I don't recall our server asking how we liked our burger cooked, but this was cooked medium. Beware though since they instantly bring you a bread basket that is not complementary. I believe it was about €1.80 per person extra charge that you will see on your check. I'm sure you can opt out of getting the bread if you don't want it!

    Such a great atmosphere. Went for my birthday and they were so accommodating. The food was great and I recommend the cod fritters!

    Tuna tartare, sangria
    Yamini A.

    Aesthetically beautiful restaurant with gorgeously plated food and really delicious drinks. Sangria here is certainly strong! We particularly liked the tuna tartare as well as the clams. A treat for the eyes and definitely an instagrammable restaurant as well. Conveniently located not too far from Sevilla Cathedral or even from the alcazar, and a good lunch locale for both food and drinks, just a little pricey; not absolutely unreasonable.

    Crockets and burrata - very nice

    Very nice place. Delicious food and more or less friendly stuff in comparison to other placed around here. Also waiters speak English. I recommend this place

    This spot has one of the most pretty interiors that I've seen. We had already enjoyed a tapas lunch but thought we could eat more and rest up before our next tour. The prices are a little higher but nothing outrageous. We opted for two tapas and two beers. The tempura sof boiled egg looked so good with the smell of truffle cream and all. I was a bit disappointed that the egg inside was cold. The batter wasn't hot either so not sure when it was deep fried. There were 8 croquettes and we ordered the assorted one. Honestly couldn't tell very well what the meat inside were but appreciated that the batter was lighter than others we've tried. Service was fairly attentive as there were quite a number of people sitting outside also. I would come here for the atmosphere and a drink. The foods were decent but not amazing. The bill came to €18 for 4 items.

    Me and my friends stopped in this place for a friends birthday. Immediately the atmosphere is so calming and nice. We all got drinks. The mojito's were very cool because of the ice they were made of looked like shaved ice. Me and a friend got a pitcher of sangria which to this day we remember as our favorite. (We lived in Spain for 8 months so we had a lot to chose from) it had strawberry's and bananas and rose merry. The fruit was lovely to eat afterwards and the rose merry really added to the drink. Next we all ordered. Everyone loved what they got. I personally got the battered egg which sounds odd but was AMAZING. Truly a culinary wounded in my opinion and I would recommend everyone to try it. I wasn't full after this however go I got a lemon pie dessert and it was also amazing. It was tangy and not too sweet. Over all an amazing meal in a lovely place!

    Risotto

    The food was spectacular, best Risotto I've ever had. The presentation of the dishes were well done, and the ambience was beautiful/trendy. Service was alright. They were kind enough to speak to us in English

    We finally made it to this restaurant after 2 years of living outside of Seville and I can't say I was happy about it. The place is absolutely gorgeous with an inside garden and rustic decor. The servers for the most part are okay not great especially this one female in particular I believe she's Latina maybe from South America. She had an attitude, didn't care about the customers and was stand-off ish turned me off completely to the entire experience. I ordered the red wine sangria and it was definitely made with the entire sugar jar. No one offered to give me something new. The prices are high for Seville. The only 2 items I liked on the menu were the buñelos de Bacalao and the Ensaladilla de ahumados(with less mayo of course) we ordered the risotto which no where in the description it mentioned that the chef would decorate it with curry. Who does that? Curry out of all spices? Weird! I'm allergic to it and when we asked about it that annoyed waitress mentioned, you didn't mention that you were allergic. I said no where on the menu does it say that the risotto has curry as an ingredient. She smirked, well this is a fusion kitchen. Done! We ordered coffee and the brownie the brownie was meh nothing special, I also asked if there was anything other than regular milk for my coffee she said no with an attitude and had no regard to my request. After all of this, we waited for our check and for someone to take our payment for almost 15 minutes. Never again. Sorry I wouldn't recommend this place especially because of the service and the the way the food is presented. I come from the city of fusion cuisine (New York) and this is not fusion! When fusion is done the menu is detailed to avoid situations like the one I had yesterday. There are much better restaurants in Seville with much better service. Avoid this one.

    This place was actually the highlight of our trip to Seville. I wish I could give it 4.5 stars instead of 4 or 5. It was a great place with very nice food and solid service. A great change from other Tapas places. We had the patatas bravas which were probably the best we had in Spain. The seared tuna was delicious and the ribs were amazing with the roasted garlic mashed potatoes. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for something a bit different without a touristy feel.

    I was recommended by a friend to try this place and was told to try the calamari sandwich. Upon arriving, we were told the wait would be about two hours and since we weren't too hungry we decided to leave our phone number and wait to be called. After walking 30 minutes, they called us and said they had an open table. I was so excited to order the calamari sandwich since the pictures on yelp looked so good, but the waitress said they no longer serve it at the restaurant (the menu I was given was also different from the ones on yelp, wish I took a picture). I opt'd for the cod instead and the portion was absolutely tiny for the overpriced cost of the dish. On the plus side, the inside of the restaurant was beautiful and I enjoyed the indoor trees and plants.

Knowing we were going to eat a lot during a food tour, we settled on some small tapas (ham, cheese, bread, and olives) and got some sangria and a beer. We sat at the bar and I was able to practice my Spanish with the bartender. The ham was a generous portion and I loved watching them cut it behind the bar! Very fun and old establishment-y vibes. Wish we could've tried more on the menu if we didn't have other plans!

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.

There was a show going on when we arrived around 10:50, so the main entrance was closed off, but we went through the side entrance and ordered drinks at the bar. I got a small glass of the orange wine, since I heard that was the specialty in Sevilla and wanted to try it. It was a sweeter wine but had a slightly bitter after taste. There were already a lot of people there, so it was a bit hard for us to see the performance, but from what I could see, it was really good. When it finally ended around 11, the lights came on. My friend and I didn't want to wait around for the next performance, so we finished our drinks and left. They also have plenty of seating outdoors in the courtyard, so if you want to just grab a drink but not watch the show, you can always sit outside and chat.
