About a month ago, my husband asked me, "Do we want to go for paella? Is there a place that has a paella day? Should we go?" I love discovering new flavors, so I immediately said yes. He tried to book, but it was already fully booked 🥺 But he didn't give up and found availability for October 24th (we're talking about a month's wait)... so the appointed day arrived, and we finally went to this truly beautiful place. As soon as you walk in, you're greeted by the warmth of the colors and the kindness and courtesy of the staff. They're all smiling, and not because they're trying, but because you can tell it's a peaceful environment. I also thought the paella was excellent: they serve four different types, and every time you go, it's a celebration for all the customers. We left full, but not weighed down, and above all, happy: yes, we were happy we waited until October 24th. I highly recommend it 👍👍👍

Such a great restaurant, a bit small but definitely worth it. I really enjoyed the food, the sangria was also good. I absolutely recommend it. 🤗

Sangria was nice hehe food was good from what I remember but I may have been a bit tipsy as someone who came didn't agree

A restaurant with a nice menu and good food. Typical Spanish dishes, not bad at all. A must try.

This quaint location features pleasant Spanish-influenced decor, with generously spaced tables for adequate privacy and easy conversation. The welcome and service are friendly while maintaining the appropriate level of professionalism, though without being pushy. The food quality remains good, with the various tapas reaching peaks of excellence, and room for improvement for the Valencian paella and duende! The price range is mid-range and in line with the service. Nonetheless, it's recommended for an evening out that's a little different from your average restaurant.

Everything was excellent, with the two-for-one deal. The fish was delicious. I chose a lovely lobster pan and nothing to complain about. Everything was excellent, even the place was very nice. The only flaw was the owner, who was a bit sulky. I tried to make conversation but nothing happened, then I tried to break the ice and nothing happened. 😁 In the end, I said: South Americans are like the Spanish, always cheerful and optimistic (he's from Ecuador). The owner replied: "Not me, I'm sad." At that point, I gave up. 🤣🤣🤣 Anyway, everything else was a top rating, but a negative note was also given for the music, which, rather than Spanish, sounded like a piano bar, slow but still relaxing. 😁

Abbiamo cenato con degli antipasti fritti abbastanza anonimi, la paella insipida scotta e molto cara ( non mi aspettavo quella mangiata a Valencia) ma da un ristorante che si dice Spagnolo...churros super fritti. Una debacle gastronomica con un conto astronomico. Goodbye

A very nice Spanish restaurant, well-organized and clean, with super friendly and attentive staff. The meat dishes were very good and of decent quality, but the fish dishes were mediocre. We had the mixed cold cuts appetizer and the focaccia. Some of the cold cuts were good, others were vacuum-packed. Then I ordered the cutlet, and it was tender and good quality. However, the seafood paella, which arrived after 30 minutes, was mediocre. The squid were frozen, and the mussels and clams were also not of the highest quality. I wasn't thrilled with the desserts either. Value for money: 7.

Beautiful place, attentive and helpful staff. We chose the tasting menu: the appetizers were truly excellent. I must point out, however, that the rice (not the fish) in the paella was found bland and characterless by 4 out of 6 people at the table who left it, and I personally was very disappointed. The desserts were excellent.

Serata con amici in questo ristorante nel quale non tornavo da qualche anno. Antipasto misto molto buono, sangria fatta perfettamente, ma la nota super dolente è stata il piatto principale. La paella non aveva nulla a che vedere con una paella spagnola, sembrava più un risotto, e anche piuttosto triste. Abbiamo segnalato la cosa ad una cameriera prima e ad un cameriere poi, e la reazione è stata inerte… della serie “amen, se volete ve la mangiate così”. Alla cassa pagando il conto abbiamo fatto notare la cosa, e la risposta è stata “allora dovete tornare a riprovarla”. Mah, dubito francamente che torneremo a pagare 80 euro per un risotto che a casa saprei cucinare molto meglio. Peccato, perché anni fa questo era un ristorante spagnolo di grande qualità.

Siamo stati a pranzo a San Valentino. Ristorante spagnolo abbiamo preso delle Tapas e paella ai frutti di mare. Le Tapas erano ottime ma la paella mi ha deluso. Ho assaggiato la paella del Salamanca di Barcellona e ad Alicante in Spagna e devo ammettere che non ci siamo. La paella era bruciata sotto tanto che era attaccata alla padella, capisco che il riso deve avere la caratteristica socarrat che sul fondo deve avere una tostatura leggermente bruciacchiata, ma questa emanava il caratteristico odore di bruciato e la parte sottostante era immangiabile. Devo dire che anche la sangria non mi ha convinto. Il locale è accogliente e il personale simpatico e disponibile.

Too bad...my family and I went with many good intentions, but it didn't satisfy us in terms of quality, quantity, and price. We were 2 adults and 2 children. We started with a 1L sangria, equivalent to the one at the supermarket. We had the Tapas mix, the fried mix, and a portion of fried cuttlefish (Chipirones). All the tapas are miniature, literally one-bite morsels (don't be fooled by the photos), except for the bell pepper, which takes two bites. Their flavor, assuming they're ready-made dishes (I can understand that), is nothing special. The bread they serve with oil and salt in little bowls is delicious and delicious. Let's move on to the 3 Valencian paellas. Instead of each bringing our own portions of paella, they had the good idea of ​​serving it in a single paella pan (I'll leave it up to you to consider the reasoning behind this decision and imagine the paltry quantity). This seems to be a clear attempt to outsmart the customer, given that 3 portions equal a whopping 60 euros. You'd better order different paellas so they don't get cheated. The flavor of the paella was quite good, especially regarding the rice and fish (not fresh), while the mixed meats didn't taste good, and were exclusively fat and hard, I think, from the pork. That's not the way to go. Then we had 2 portions of churros, a portion of the dessert trio, and a Manzanilla liqueur, and these weren't particularly delicious either. Total, I've attached a photo of the receipt, just over 35 euros per person, but keep in mind that for our little boy, we only ordered fried cuttlefish. The only positives were the service—the wait staff were always courteous and smiling—and the restaurant itself was very nice. We still had a pleasant evening, and I plan to return in the future, hoping I'd stumbled upon the wrong night.

Having lived in Madrid for over 7 years I can say I know Spanish food and this was nothing like it. Apart from the Pataras Bravas and the Sangria all the food was dry and overcooked , especially the Paella Valenciano. Most disappointed and let down as we had a near 40 minute cab ride to get there. Also got extremely noisy as the place filled up Definitely NOT recommended

I dislike, too expensive
