The food is always delicious. The waiter is always kind and conscientious. The ambiance is relaxed and low key. Kind of bohemian. We love looking out at the harbor, playing with the dog. Roasting marshmallows over the fire. They serve a large glass of sangria! Love that!!
One of our local favorite places for past 6 years Great food, Spanish music, sangria and the view.
Enchanting spot. Reminds me of stops I made in Spain. The owner, Mike, was really nice and fun to chat with. His dog, Slurpy, is super cute. This place is really lovely at night with the string lights too. Great spot. Definitely coming back!
My little friend Slurp now has a sandwich shop inside Seville Tapas! I love a good sandwich as much as pizza and tacos so here I am and it didn't disappoint. It's only $13 and huge! Pastrami and provolone is what you see in the photo, Nom Nom! And as always Mike is a terrific host.
Oh my goodness this place is amazing and I can't believe I didn't know it existed. The food is absolutely legit. The tapas are so yummy and perfect sizes. The sangria is perfection, not too sweet. They are the nicest people. Mike is a sweetheart and his cutie Slurps will greet you. GO!!!
After literal years of wanting to come here, but never getting to because it was always closed (they're only open on Saturdays and Sundays from 3-8pm, so if you're feeling tapas plan accordingly), my dream finally came true! We came by around 5pm on a Sunday evening in August and were immediately able to sit outside. They had a few reserved tables but still had a handful open. We ordered a carafe of sangria to get started while we perused the food menu. The sangria wasn't super strong but was still tasty and refreshing. We were also served complimentary bread. For food we ordered the Spanish tortilla (potato and egg dish), Albondigas al Jerez (meatballs), Gambas Al ajillo (shrimp), Jamon iberico (prosciutto), and the sweet papers filled with goat cheese. The shrimp and meatballs were my favorite, both were cooked perfectly and bursting with flavor. Also enjoyed the Jamon iberico. The Spanish tortilla was just okay, without the aioli it was fairly bland. The sweet peppers were okay too, they just didn't stand out as much as some of the other items. Enjoyed the quaint and intimate atmosphere, our table faced out to the street and we were surrounded by trees so felt like we had our own private space. Some of the other tables may have been a little more cramped, but feel like they still provided a good atmosphere.
