    We loved the Tuna Tataki, it was amazing! The Rose was good too, as well as the beef. The waitress was lovely!

    Very nice traditional spanish food. Only negative thing is that they added 10% at the end, so their listed prices aren't incl. tax., which isn't the norm in spain or in europe. Also the dessert didn't get discounted as well.

    The restaurant was very cozy especially as it was pouring with rain on the evening we visited. We had sea bass starter and the lasagne and pork cheek stew for mains. All were delicious and just what we needed on a cool damp night to warm us up. Service was spot on. The homemade cheesecake for dessert was excellent too! All in all a very nice evening and reasonable prices thank you.

    Unfriendly staff, undercooked fish, meat dish was like it was heated up several times it was so dry, they ‘ran out’ of vegetables which is hard to believe for a Friday lunch time. For someone who seldom complains, we found this restaurant is truly dismal

    Booked in advance for table of six. Tried calling several times day before as our party had changed to 9. Arrived at restaurant as per reservation time - no table ready and were quiet put out we had increased numbers to 9. In particular waiter Gonzalo was rude when we arrived. Food was good. Service was poor. Gonzalo was very rude. Wouldn’t go back or recommend.

    Amazing food, great waiters. Only the street musician where a bit too loud, looked like a Sevilla Got Talent contest.

    We went early and had the benefit of a discounted dinner. The food was excellent and the service very good. As it was early it was a little quiet but that worked well for us as later it would have been very busy in the street,

    6/10

    Nice small local restaurant. Although the beef I ordered as medium well had some pink parts, when I highlighted this issue it appeared that they had potential put my food in the microwave as the peppers seemed shrivelled. Understandably this could have been due to language barrier and when I spoke to a waiter who understood English, they cooked my beef for longer. Good to note for those from the UK that they add bread to your table but this is added onto your bill as we are used to this being free (not sure if this is the norm in Seville restaurants as this was my first visit)

    4.5/10

    This restaurant was rated 4.7 out of 5 on TripAdvisor. Based on that, I went with my wife expecting something special - but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the hype. For starters, we ordered artichokes, prawns, and ham stir-fry. For mains, we had the Galician beef entrecôte and the gratin codfish with garlic & tomato. The starters were fine, but nothing memorable. The beef entrecôte was very chewy and fatty. I ended up spitting out about a quarter of the meat because it was simply too tough and unpleasant to eat - not exactly ideal. Overall it was a disappointment, and honestly not much better than the steaks you’d get at a pub in the UK. As for the codfish, the tomato sauce didn’t pair well with the dish. It wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t remarkable either. Their service was mediocre at best. The waiter wasn’t rude but seemed distracted and eager for us to finish quickly and leave. His attitude felt cold and lacked hospitality one would expect from a restaurant with 4.7 rating.

    Unengaged staff giving poor service . We had to leave 50% of the main dishes uneaten as the staff left it for ourselves to cook with no explanation whatsoever .

    The food was very good, even though we got the wrong dish. Wanted us to order online, but wanted to look at a menu. The staff need to be more friendly/welcoming and attentive.

    The food was okay, octopus was a little bitter. The lady server was acting as if working was a penance. We also didn't receive the discount.

    One meal was undercooked and even after it was conveyed it was still brought back undercooked and we did not enjoy. Server also didn’t know who ordered what meal. Food was just OK.

    We ordered starters with appropriate wine pairings and a main meal. They forgot our starters and we were presented with just our main course. It seemed the waitress had made a genuine mistake which was disappointing but we accepted without fuss. However the chap be hind the bar took exception to us and halfway through our meal brought ONE starter with two spoons and stuck it abruptly on the table. When I (politely) said ‘no thanks’ he said ‘free’ and turned on his heel with no apology.

    Bar/restaurant in a side street with a few other eating establishments. Service was good from cheery and friendly staff and the menu had plenty of choice. Food was tasty enough although too much garlic in the sauce for me.

    Great lunch. Marta was an outstanding server who steered us to some wonderful dishes. And, she suggested a wonderful local red that was a wonderful blend of temperñillo, Syrah, and grenache. She also suggested an outstanding sweet sherry to finish the meal. Everything was excellent. All four of us were very happy.
