El Porteño - Mi rincón imprescindible en Valencia Cada vez…read moreque estoy en Valencia, hay un lugar al que siempre regreso: El Porteño. Es mi parada perfecta después de una buena caminata por la ciudad, donde sé que me espera una copa de cava o una excelente botella de vino y, por supuesto, un filete a la altura de cualquier ocasión especial. He disfrutado aquí tanto con mi hijo como con amistades queridas, y la experiencia siempre supera las expectativas. Desde los entrantes hasta los postres, cada comida es un homenaje al buen gusto y a la hospitalidad. El personal y la dirección son simplemente excepcionales: atentos, cálidos y con ese toque que hace que te sientas como en casa. Superb. Una joya que siempre recomiendo, y a la que siempre volveré.

Came here with a group for a nice dinner. This restaurant has several buildings and area within the…read moresame address. After some minor confusion, found the reservation and table. Seemed that who ever took the over the phone reservation took some liberties when writing the name down. 1) We had several beverages. 2) Place has a cramped old feel and look. 3) Server was not very attentive and extremely forgetful. We ket ordering water and drinks over and over. At least three times or so each of us. Each time it seemed like a combination of these three because he either kept on forgetting, maybe he may not have cared, or was extremely busy. 4) Food was very good, due to this, I recommend it. 5) Had several dishes. All good. Some great. The grilled sweet breads were good. Overall, I recommend you give this place a try.

I traveled from Chicago, USA to Valencia, Spain to attend a friend's wedding. Since my friend and…read moreher darling new husband hadn't had Korean food, it was essential that we go out for Korean during my visit. Essential. We ordered kalbi, bibimbap, mondu guk, chapchae, kimchi, and bindaeduk. One caveat is that I had just been in Seoul, South Korea the month prior, and Chicago, my home city, boasts one of the largest Korean populations in the United States. Therefore, I'm used to eating excellent and authentic Korean food. Thus, my standards are pretty high, and this is why I can only rate Jalasán as moderately good. In truth, the food was basically what I expected of Korean food in Valencia, Spain, a place that has a rather small Korean Spanish population. The mondu in the mondu guk, for example, were round rather than half-moon shape, and the broth tasted more like chicken noodle soup than mondu guk. Part of the reason for this somewhat bland taste is that there was no sign of black pepper in the broth. It was a good soup, but it didn't taste like mondu guk. Also, you might have noticed that we ordered kimchi. The fact that banchan, side dishes that always include kimchi, were not automatically served was a bit heartbreaking. Banchan is an important part of any Korean dining experience. (There are Korean restaurants that don't serve banchan in the States too. I avoid them.) Finally, it didn't seem that Jalasán offered soju, makgeolli, or Korean beer. I searched for a Korean market on Yelp, and I found one about 45 minutes away. According to the photos in the Yelp review, this market sells soju. Therefore, it exists in Spain. It sure would be nice to have soju and banchan with our main dishes. Re-reading what I wrote above makes it seem like I was unhappy. I wasn't. I was thrilled to have Korean food in Spain! However, if you're really looking for an authentic experience, Jalasán might fall a little short. This being said, it's a really nice restaurant with Korean decorations and a friendly staff who even speak English. Think about this: I went to a Korean restaurant in Spain, and my server spoke to me in English. #globalization #ThankYou #hospitality I wish I could get on a plane and fly to Valencia right now. If I visit again, I would certainly consider visiting Jalasán again. Korean food is my favorite food in the whole entire world, and I'll seek it out wherever I travel.

Enrico was the most friendly waiter, and we met him again on our second visit, when he was their with his wife and having a meal too. So if the staff eat at the same palce they work, got to have something about the place. ALWAYS BOOK!!!!! Can't fault the food nor the service. You have to get the attention of the staff sometimes, but that's only because they are so busy. Once you have they are very attentive. Air Conditioned, Children's Menu, Disabled Facilities, Limited Parking, but street parking normally OK, if not competing with the church. Highly recommend the fillet steak, and the spare ribs. The children's menu is equally good. One of the young chefs came out to talk to us on our second visit.
