They operate as a restaurant and also cater private events. We are happy to say that we were served high-quality food with attentive and accommodating waitstaff. The meal was satisfying, and the site offers unparalleled views. In Nou Racó they are self-proclaimed specialists in paellas. In my opinion, the paella I ate here certainly captures the spirit of a "Traditional Paella Valenciana." Thankfully my friend who was born and raised in Valencia confirmed the accuracy in the taste and style in which Nou Racó serves their paella. We had a fabulous afternoon enjoying the weather, their paella, and some good wine. We will return next time we are in Valencia. In the meantime, we will send our friends and family to try it out for themselves.
