Lovely small restaurant bar, relaxed atmosphere and great food. Situated on a corner, not too far from Sants station, with an outside seating area on the street, felt at home. Paella negro was amazing, though note as a main, it was not a huge portion of, so have some tapas as a starter! No complaints, but a useful observation! Seemed to be run by a family who were welcoming! A great place to go if staying in the area!

Absolutely loved this place! The Spanish paella was delicious – full of flavor, perfectly cooked, and truly authentic. It tasted just like Spain! The service was also excellent – friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Our waiter even surprised us with free shots so we could experience a real taste of Spain – such a thoughtful and fun touch. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to try authentic paella. A must-visit!
