Tiny little spot on a corner of Alfalfa street that screams "come in and have some jamon and a cana!" so we went...the place is rustic-cool, staff looks like they could be in a rock band (think Black Keys meet Kings of Leon) and very friendly considering they're always hustling and bustling. They have several different types of bruschettas that... More

My boyfriend and I went there to try their tapas and sangria. The sangria was ok but the food wasn't fresh and the quality very poor. We paid too much for three tapas and the place is the dirtiest I've ever seen. The service was terrible and when I saw that the food was ready (in varoius kind of tupper... More

Really small bar just off the Plaza. A great place with good staff, great fresh food and good wine and sherry. If too busy to stand up inside eat and drink from the side window, We loved it.

It was Saturday night and packed - well as packed as a small room with not enough space to swing a cat in can be. But cheap booze and lovely tapas prepared in what looked like was previously a cupboard. At one point the owner climbed a ladder in the kitchen/cupboard to get more food from the attic. Amazing place.

But I dont rate the food or wine. I think its a victim of its own (tripadvisor) success.

OK let me be clear, the food here is not the best we had in Seville but it tied for the 2nd best. The jamon iberico and manchego cheese is definitely what you should order, it beat out virtually all the other places we went to. As long as you order this and some good wine, which this place has...

We stopped in here for lunch based on the great reviews on Tripadvisor. We ordered several dishes, all mediocre at best. We ordered the best recommended item on the menu and it seemed like it came out of a refrigerated can. We saw him pop it in the microwave and it was slightly hot on the outside, and freezing cold...

Tiny triangular bar on corner. Unusually staffed by girls, stocked extensively, & patronised by a youthful & enthusiastic clientele.
