Love this food. It really is something very special. Had great banter with the waiter too, who created a special vegetarian option that was amazing. It can be challenging to find good vegetarian food in Seville.

Very quirky place with benches and wooden tables. Bit like being back at school. Food is fresh and the menu changes all the time. However, some of the dishes appear to have been a bit thrown together without any thought of what goes with what. Strawberries in my salad. Sirloin with sour cream and banana. Trying to be cool and... More

Dear customer, first at all I would like to apologize if the behavior of one of our waiters was not correct. In conTenedor we put much attention to every detail so our customers enjoy a special moment ... and if we do not get it, is to us a failure. I do not know exactly which night went to dinner... More

It was a decent walk from our hotel but it was well worth it. The restaurant decor is kitschy and artistic. The service was very helpful. The food was DELICIOUS! We ordered their specialty, the crispy duck with mushroom and rice as well as the grilled beef with polenta. The waitress was kind enough to suggest we revise our earlier... More

Was referred by our hotel. Very cool, hip little joint. Music on Tuesday nights. English speaking waiters, Inc the owner. Food is so fresh it's ridiculous. Im not much of a reviewer but if you're in Sevilla, do yourself a favor and search this restaurant out. You won't regret it.

I think food in this place is really good. They change the menu everyday according to what is available in the market and is top quality. This provides for a lot of regional stuff in the plates which is something I value. Portions are big enough although a bit pricy and everything sounds delicious from the menu so I would... More

My husband and I loved this restaurant! Incredibly fresh ingredients. Very friendly staff. Food well-prepared and you can watch chefs at work. Different menu daily. Funky, colorful décor. Fabulous salmon tartare. Delicious chocolate pie with pistaccio ice cream. Incredible value!!

We walked by contenedor on our first night in Spain. I thought it was actually called "Slow Food" as there is a sign stating that in the window. The place was packed & the decor was really funky, modern & artistic. I knew we had to try it. We came in the next night and were greeted by an extremely... More

This is an excellent place for a sit-down meal, to relax and enjoy! Dishes are prepared solely with fresh ingredients bought from the market or directly from suppliers. Its slow food, carefully prepared, very tasty. I've been living here for over 3 years and its one of my favorite restaurants. The wine list is carefully chosen and you can get... More

Recommended by our landlord who is a local, we went to Contendor the first night we arrived at Seville and staightaway fell in love with it. The place is small, decor is quirky but beautiful and tasteful. The owner and staff and the most friendly people we have ever met from a restaurant. We were slightly nervous when we entered,... More

This was our favorite restaurant in our 12-day trip to Andalusia and that’s saying something as we ate in some great places. It was so good we went back a second time, which we never do on a trip. The care and attention to cooking creatively with fresh, seasonal ingredients with nothing pre-prepared showed in the results. As a couple... More
