Absolutely phenomenal food. Cannot stress enough how good the food and the staff here were. We had the best experience and we'll totally come back when we're in Valencia again. Definitely get the Paella Valencia, my personal favorite. My family loved the Paella Verduras (for all vegetarians).

Great for a typical paella, it was delicious. Also we had squid and tomato with olive oil as starter. Fully recommended for lunch, good idea to reserve in advance, it was pretty busy
