The start from the waiter was: you see how many italians are here. we have to be v good! Well as an appetizer offered by the house they brought us...peanuts (not a joke). We asked that if they could bring the food for the kids soon: after 1h. Our Tapas were not exceptionals and they were brought one after the... More

Our tour guide on a Pub Crawl recommended this place and we were not disappointed. Particularly the bull's tail (rabo de toro) which was our personal favourite. The best food we had while in Valencia

This restaurant may have been great place, but victim of its success, appearing in many tourist guide books... makes it a place where it's hard to find any Spanish customer at all. At least such was the case on Easter week end. Service was busy but friendly, and they spoke (some) English. I would not say that food was bad,... More

I really liked the place. Atmosphere was autenthic, food was good, can't complain at all. It was available a wide choice of tapas, all of them really good. Beer and the classics tapas were cheap while some more classy tapas were more expensive but the price was deserved.

Had piquillo peppers stuffed with seasoned cod fish: excellent! Also had patatas bravas, spicy baked potatoes with whipped garlic oil...delicious. The tortilla Española was moist and delicious. All washed down with cold local beer. Nice atmosphere, perfect for a nice night out. friendly service.

We had a couple of bottles of red wine, which were worth every penny (particularly the local wine), and some very fine tapas plates, and left very happy. Atmosphere is nice, and the people are pleasant and charming.

Friendly, helpful staff and great atmosphere - not self-consciously cool - and very busy from about 9.30 pm onwards. And fantastic to have Coltrane's 'Ole' (the whole piece) coming through the speakers. Reasonably-priced tapas, but some were not so good. For example, the croquetas de raba were a bit gooey (though croquetas often are), the tortilla de patatas was OK,... More

Very good place in the center of the city. Nice atmosphere - during the Las Fallas you have to wait for a table a little bit. Variety of tapas in good price. Very charming interior.

It was long ago the last time we visited this place, still a good one, although service is now a bit colder than in the past. Food is always ok and the tortilla is still my favourite. Seating outside and inside, warm atmosphere. I judge the pulpo gallego too expensive for the portion you get.
