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.

Not exactly 4. More like 4.3-4.5 but let's stick with 4 for now…read more Great Tapas with the 1960s movie vibe... Found this place quite by accident but it was within a walking distance of the hotel which was nice. Tapas was great. Not fancy and overly inventive but very well prepared with a good flair and flavor. Bravissimas, Pulpo, Carrillada de cerdo just to name a few. A nice Albarno to go along and you've quite quite an experience all within the Valencia's old city.

Came back to the restaurant at nine and three tables were open with no one sitting at them. We were a table for two and the hostess went and grabbed a misfit table and put it in the alley around the corner from the restaurant. we ask for a table right in front of the entrance of the restaurant and she said those tables were for four people. (there were three tables at that point with four chairs and two people sitting at each table.). She would not sit us at those tables and implied that there was a reservation for them. we cancel the reservation and walked to the next restaurant up the street. Those tables were empty for over an hour. Around an hour later eight people walked up and they w had moves tables together. It was clear there was never a reservation for those tables. if you are a couple and want to eat at this restaurant, there are only two tables for two people. don't waste your time trying to sit there. 2 hours later there were still 2 tables empty. Very disrespectful. Choice another restaurant

Bodegas Fila is an excellent place to head for, especially if you're planning a group gathering…read more When we were last here, there were quite a number of small groups, and the atmosphere was bustling and loud - even with no music. At the instruction of one of the hosts, we chose a bottle of wine from the shelves along the wall and took it to the bar where it was opened and glasses were poured from it for us. Not only is the wine selection very broad, but the prices are exceptional - only a little more than you'd pay if you were buying the wine directly from a supermarket! To pair with the excellent wine, we chose from the menu of simple tapas (ham, bread, olives, cheese, etc.). While the food is simple, the atmosphere, the friendly service, and the quality of the wine and food more than make up for it. Highly recommended!

The most ambitious restaurant we went to in Spain, super fresh ingredients, clear flavors, small plates. If we'd been served these dishes in a multi-star Michelin restaurant we'd have been happy with them. Instead, bizarrely, they're coming out of a stall in a (high end) market.
