    I went to a few Restaurants and tried the Tapas and I'm hooked. You can visit any local Restaurant and ask them if they serve Tapas. If they do you need to try them. It's basically an assortment of local foods that's perfect for a group of people that are not accustomed to Spanish food to give them the taste of various dishes. Of course you can't forget the sangria to go with it.

    This small tapas bar also serves sandwiches and some nice sized dishes for up to four people. Set on the Plaza de Espana, it has tables outside to enjoy the warm summer sun. The staff is really friendly and very helpful.

    The Paella Valencia and Mixed Solomillo are awesome. They are just right for four (4) people and are cooked upon ordering.

    Good food and very friendly service, this establishment has a bar (through which you enter) and a fairly large adjoining dining room. The one employee there the night we went gave us a free tapa of fried fish pieces and also a free flan for dessert (to share amongst the three of us). Conveniently located just a block from the beach.

    This place is great! The owner is very friendly and speaks very good English. While stopped in traffic he noticed me in another car and yelled out to ask me how things were going! Definitely made me feel like a local. That aside, their food is top notch. Get whatever fish/seafood dish the owner tells you is fresh that day and you can’t go wrong. Best best are the corvina (sea bass), chiperones (grilled baby squid), the pimientos al piquillo (mild peppers stuffed with a shrimp/fish paste), and the wonderful almejas al cazuela (clams in a light tomato sauce). Get a table outside because it is stifling in the dining room.

    See above.

    A great place to sit outside with a tinto verano and gaze out over the Plaza Bartolome Perez at the Parroquia and Castillo de Luna. My friend and I went during siesta (4:00pm) and had the entire place (the restaurant and the plaza) to ourselves. A very nice spot to relax with a drink. Sedate and mellow!

  • The dining room is in the first floor of this residence in a quiet part of town away from the hustle of the downtown area which is a nice respite from the bar/bodega scene. Smartly decorated with table cloths and interesting contemporary art work, the restaurant has only 8 or so tables but the food is innovative and delicious. While still maintaining Spanish influences, it is a departure from the regular fare at the bars and mesons.

    This is what our party of 4 had the night we were there: pimientos al piquillos [sweet peppers stuffed with soft beef], bacalao (salted cod) with pimientos and apple sauce, corvina gambas y ajos (sea bass with shrimp and almonds), almond cake with flan topping, chocolate and cream soufflet

    Not a bad way to make a living. Open for a few hours in the morning, fry up some dough, keep the coffee hot and the customers will be lining up at your window. Churros are a quick and great way to have breakfast the Spanish way. Not much is done for breakfast so churros can be a fun alternative to the tostado.

    Churros can be ordered from this place in individual portions or in bulk--all of which are weighed and made fresh. The coffee is quite strong but great! You may also want to try getting some hot chocolate and dipping your churros into it.

    This is a great find and has some great home cooked menu items. It is authentic and a great place to take a large group of people if you need to; inside or out. Most of the menu items can be ordered as tapas (or parts) or as combination platters. Everything is fresh and they bring it out piping hot. It is also open late to satisfy those late night cravings of Mexican food while you are in Spain.

    The combination platters are good as well as the chicken enchiladas. They also do a good sangria.
