We had an excellent lunch at Bodega dos de Mayo. Simple uncomplicated but good food. Friendly efficient staff. Good value for money. Perfect for an outdoor lunch at the plaza.

Went for early dinner and we were actually the only table in the whole restaurant. Tapas are on average 2-3 EUR i guess. Really high quality of food. Do try the Cod in Tomato (amazing with bread) and foie gras with sweet wine sauce (BEST TAPAS EVER). Highly recommended, very good value for money!

My friend and I decided to try this place for lunch and boy was it hopping! A bit chaotic actually. No one greets you or tells you how to maneuver through the groups of people but we figured it out quickly. Scan the tables for anyone who looks like they might be thinking about being done eating that last bite... More

This was the third tapas bar we went to in two days, so it was easy to compare with the others. Many tapas dishes are similar of course. This was the worst food of the three. The pork wasnt very tender and the aubergine on toast was uninspired. Still we had a nice time. The atmosphere was very lively, the... More

This little tapas bar is fantastic and well worth the walk out of the main tourist area. The bar is frequented by local Sevillans and the food is outrageously good.

We were directed to this restaurant by the person who rented us an apartment in a residential area of Sevilla. It is located on a small plaza. We arrived early, around 7:30pm, and though the outside tables were taken we had our choice of tables inside. By 8:30pm there were many people waiting for a table. The selection of tapas... More

I went into this tapas bar by accident without knowing it's recommends by all those travel guides. It's self service (you ordered at the bar and took the drink and food to your table) and there were so many choices! Price is inexpensive. I love the duck bonbon which is duck liver! So yummy that melted in my mouth.

This is a tipical Spanish tapas bar: always crowded, always noisy, where seats at a table are hard to get. Great food at fair prices, especially octopus and fried squid. Go there to taste a real Spanish evening atmosphere.
