8.5/10
The restaurant is nice in the main room, not so much in the back room: get a table in the main room or terrace. The service was adequate although slow (our paella took 45 minutes to be served) but the restaurant was full, so that might explain it. The food would have been good if not extremely salty.

7.5/10Food was nice enough, service was friendly but somewhat chaotic. Rooftop was a lovely experience so glad we went! Would recommend with the correct expectation that this will not be seamless service or outstanding food but nevertheless enjoyable.

7/10Was ok, service wasn’t the best. Ended up waiting over 40 min for a single paella. Prices were quite expensive and you are automatically have to pay 10% extra for sitting at the Terrace which wasn’t explained before booking. Although they have a tapas menu online, it wasn’t available when we were there.

5/10We ordered Mojitos but got virgin mojitos?? All our meals were either lukewarm or cold. The staff was not very attentive or friendly. The food was okay but not worth the price. The vibes are really nice tho.

9.5/10Very tasty food (tuna tataki and paella), nice staff, on a quite busy street but it was enjoyable. We did not book a table on the roof terrasse though, as we were not sure the 10% supplement was worth.

6/10It's way over rated. Food is low average. Staff are pleasant and polite but that's about it.

4/10The mains of fish and beef - beef was overcooked not medium rare. And the fish was full of bones and too salty. The service is also not as friendly as other restaurants we’ve eaten at over the years. Terrace seating for eating also not comfortable.

6.5/10Cocktails were diluted, waiters always forgot who what ordered. Paella is average 6/10. On the terrace different menu (more expensive). They forgot about TheFork discount

7/10We visited the restaurant to have dinner. Our table was at the rooftop, with a bit of view of the nearby buildings. The food was okay - not something special. It was a bit expensive for what it was. We had higher expectations. Their dishes was not something special, adequate recipes. Some of the dishes were not cooked as we asked. What annoyed me was that they charged us for filtered tap water more than 4 euros per bottle.! Crazy! Apart from these, staff was friendly and quick. They aswered our questions properly. The wine was also very good! I'd suggest to visit the place for a few tapas and drinks - not for a proper dinner.

3.5/10Paella was burnt and dry - they removed the charge from the bill. Roasted artichoke in garlic was really roasted in vinegar. No one asked us about our meal until we requested the bill.

10/10Food was delicious from start to finish. Service was attentive and accurate, which is remarkable, given that we were a large group. Although it's in a touristy area, it didn't feel touristy, and the cost was very reasonable.

7.5/10Food was solid. We had reserved the rooftop patio but were seated in a table that was in an awkward area inside. Everyone enjoyed their food, and our waiter was pleasant.

10/10The staff was very friendly and the food was delicious. Sitting outside on the terrace was really nice because the views were spectacular and it added to the festive ambiance. Looking forward to coming back on our next visit to Sevilla!

8/10We found a hair in our food so that was a bit off putting We sat by the entrance and the music, although good, was very loud. I guess the tables away from the speakers would be ok Location and views are great

10/10Our first visit to Sevilla. We read the reviews and thought the menu was interesting. We enjoyed our meal so much we returned the following evening. The staff were very friendly and spoke excellent English, explaining the dishes and the various wine choices.

10/10The place is very nice, with a nice view and good service. We ordered a paella de mariscos but it was definitely overcooked. We ordered also a tuna tataki and that was good
