10/10We had a really nice and attentive waitress who helped us with our order. Her recommendations were all perfect. All dishes from starters to desert were delicious. I wish we could go there again soon to try more dishes. The 1 hour trip by bis from Valencia was well worth it.

6/10One of the paella was really dry, the rice and some of the vegetables were burn. And unfortunately I probably got a bad mussel, because I throw out all the food (my family were ok) and I got well immediately after that. MY daughter was dissappointet with the dessert, but she doesn't explain why.

10/10The service was fantastic. Our waitress was knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. The paella was delicious and the cheesecake was perhaps the best I’ve tasted. Loved it.

9.5/10This is one of those great places to go for a paella properly done. Welcoming staff and nice ambience. Paella Valenciana is the best!

Our lunch at Maribel was perfect. The restaurant managed a table outside for us as requested on our booking, even though they were really busy. Superb seafood paella and a delicious salad. Great service made the whole experience perfect for a long lazy lunch. A memorable day.

Excellent and super friendly service , with great food. Recommend crujiente con gamba y alges y paella mirabel. Very tasty rich wine from vegamar. After living 7 years in Valencia , this still is my absolute favorite. Thank you all for a lovely lunch and afternoon!

7.5/10Duck Paella was really delicious but the Frutti di Mare Paella was extremely salty and the seafood was overcooked. Not going to be my favorite spot to visit in Valencia if I come again.

By far the best arroceria we ever had lunch at. We really enjoyed our paella with seabass and shrimp. Next level dining with great service in a nice ambiance. It’s truly worth while taking the trip from Valencia City Centre to El Palmar to have this special experience. We’ll probably be back many more times in the future to visit this gem of a restaurant!

9/10Restaurante Maribel is a gem, and I had, probably, the best I’ve ever had—perfectly cooked, rich in flavor, and a true masterpiece. The service was outstanding, thanks in large part to Cecilia, our waitress. She was attentive, quick, and friendly, making sure we were well taken care of throughout our meal. The staff’s professionalism extended to the welcoming lady, who thoughtfully seated us at a quieter table upon arrival. The only drawback is the noise level. Spaniards are known for their lively conversations, which can make the atmosphere a bit boisterous. However, as someone originally from Spain, I can tolerate a bit of background noise, and it didn’t detract much from the experience. For those who prefer a calmer ambiance, I recommend visiting for an early lunch or dinner before the restaurant gets too busy.

7/10Paella is all about the rice, and theirs was good. I don’t care about the meat. I do believe that the snails could have been a larger size. The pork croquette was good. The smoked eel I would not order again. The salad could have had better ingredients, and serving the olive oil and vinegar in to-go containers, doesn’t do it for me. Would I go back, no, I would rather try an other establishment. Was it bad, no,,,, just not memorable.

8.5/10The service was good. I made a reservation in advance and they were able to accommodate me even though I arrived 30mins late. They tried to be helpful even though most of their servers were unable to speak in English.

10/10We md reservations using the Tripadvisor app one day before. The next day we arrived at the restaurant 10 minutes before our time. The host took us in promptly and our waitress came to great us and took our drink order. The service was fast and everyone was super nice even though our Spanish was limited. We ordered some appetizers and their house paella. The appetizers arrived first; they were fresh and delicious. The seafood paella was amazing; it had everything as described in the menu. We also ordered the apple pie, which was really delicious. Overall it was an amazing experience. The only difficulty for us was getting back to the city from where the restaurant was located. We asked the restaurant staff for help and they provided with a taxi number, otherwise Uber did not work.

10/10Really lovely Paella and excellent choice of dishes. The wine was recommended and was particularly good. Serenaded by some local “Valencians” with guitars, which was really entertaining and was not at all an imposition. Nice quiet spot by a canal and cooler temperature than the city, a good escape from the city if you need one and popular with the locals it would seem.

10/10I dined at Arroceria Maribel in august, and it was nothing short of incredible. The highlight of the meal was the seafood paella—absolutely extraordinary. Each bite was bursting with the fresh flavors of the ocean, perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The rice had that ideal balance of richness and texture, absorbing all the deliciousness of the seafood. To top it all off, they served a liquorish coffee that was simply perfect. It was bold, smooth, with just the right hint of sweetness to round off the meal. Every detail, from the service to the ambiance, made for an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend!

6/10The fried calamari was excellent- cooked perfectly. The paella- we had 2 kinds- the Maribel and then arroz negro- was extremely salty. It was hard to enjoy the flavors as the salt was way too strong. The seafood on the paella was tasty.
