Beer temples that exude tradition, century-old bars, tasting menus and tapas as iconic as they are refined. The capital of Seville is a gastronomic golden mile and in its streets you can taste the city, a destination for good food like few others. We are committed to the task of compiling the best restaurants and bars in Seville.
Those essential ones that reach excellence and you should try at least once in your life.
1. Abantal
Abantal, between Menéndez Pelayo and Luis Montoto, elevated Sevillian gastronomy to excellence and for 14 years has revalidated its recognition in the famous guide, in addition to the two Repsol suns it holds.
It opened its doors in 2004 and its kitchen is in charge of chef Julio Fernández Quintero, trained in the school of La Taberna del Alabardero in Seville.
The dining room has a simple atmosphere, the work of architects Santiago Pérez Barreda and Jaime Márquez Escudero, and blends in with the menu, the undisputed protagonist of this experience that starts in Seville and crosses the whole of Andalusia.
📍 c/ Alcalde José de la Bandera, 7
2. Cañabota
Cañabota’s very careful proposal is identified with the sea. Fish and seafood are the backbone of Cañabota’s concept, which is committed to the best products.
Juan Luis Fernández created in Seville a space inspired by a fish restaurant full of tiles that he had the opportunity to see in Croatia.
Coming from a fishmonger family, the Sevillian chef decided to launch this project in 2016, joined by Jaime and Eduardo Guardiola, Marcos Nieto and Rafa García.
Cañabota is one of the restaurants awarded with the Michelin star distinction and one of the best in all of Seville.
📍 c/ José Gestoso, 19
3. Barra Baja
Market products, cuisine at sight and without frills are some of the precepts that make this destination a gastronomic reference.
The menu is concise but will allow you to repeat again and again, as it is adjusted to the season and also supply the diner with a wide range of proposals outside the menu.
Rafa Liñán and Patricia Moliner come from Calima, of Dani García, ready to consolidate Barra Baja among the essential restaurants in Seville. And they have done just that.
📍 c/ Javier Lasso de la Vega, 14
4. La Casa del Tigre
This restaurant is serious business and, we’re not kidding, it could very well rank among the top 10 restaurants in Seville. La Casa del Tigre is the latest sensation when it comes to standards of more fun, original and refined cuisine in the city.
It is not surprising to find it packed with diners from Tuesday to Saturday. Located in one of the most mysterious buildings in the city, the restaurant’s starting point is the Sevillian personality, to which they give flavors, recipes and unique creations.
One of its star dishes is the mini brioche stuffed with an emulsion of manteca colorá. It is topped with a thin slice of smoked bacon and lime gel and promises to become one of the favorite snacks in Seville.
Although not only this one allows to elevate the Sevillian gastronomic experience with nuances and exquisite food from the hand of the chef Luis Plaza.
📍 c/ Amparo, 9 local B
5. Hiyoki
One of the best sushi restaurants in Seville could not be missing in this equation of essential hospitality businesses.
Hiyoki offers an excellent selection of nigiris, uramakis, sashimis, tartares and even ramen.
Indispensable premium meats, such as wagyu or Argentinean beef, make Hiyoki’s bites a delight that will captivate you from start to finish.
📍 c/ Javier Lasso de la Vega, 14
6. Mr. Crab
The fact that Señor Cangrejo is one of the top restaurants in Seville should come as no surprise.
Chef Jesús León and Fátima Villanueva lead this gastronomic corner in El Arenal, a culinary surprise that bets on seasonal products and kilometer 0.
The journey is sensational: haute cuisine, hilarious dishes, a close service lavished on the customer and the promise of continued growth that already anticipates its well-deserved Sol Repsol.
📍 c/ Harinas, 21
7. Eterno
If there is a restaurant that drinks from the roots of home that is Eterno by chef Pastrana, who recently moved to the center of Seville.
The experience runs through the memory with unforgettable dishes like his bollito pringao de yema de huevo y fritá de tomate de Los Palacios y gamba blanca. A restaurant that cooks over a slow fire whose trajectory we anticipate prosperísima.
📍 c/ Pepper, 1
8. De la O
Culinary good taste and architectural know-how share authorship at De la O and combining both qualities, so sought after in today’s hospitality universe, is quite a singularity.
In the project, the two concepts follow the guidelines of Manolo Llerena, chef and architect of this gastronomic oasis.
Wood, brick and porcelain coexist with the skill behind the stove and the ingenuity to create recipes. An intimate and harmonious space to enjoy an excellent experience as a couple and one of the best restaurants in Seville.
📍 Paseo de Nuestra Señora de la O, 29
9. Lalola
Its specialty is Iberian cuisine, on which it bases its menu. Its commitment to mix tradition and creativity is the key to the success of this establishment. The other: the raw material.
All its products are carefully selected and come from the Sierra de Huelva, which allows it to combine the flavors of the past in the dishes of the future.
The protagonist of this project is Javier Abascal, a Sevillian who trained as a chef at Taberna Alabardero and whose debut took place precisely in the Sierra de Aracena.
📍 c/ Conde de Torrejón, 9
10. La Tizná
La Tizná is an Andalusian restaurant that, although it looks like a farm in the middle of the countryside, next to tiles and loaves of bread, has all the elegance and affection that fit in a kitchen.
Sustainable restaurant, small shop, pantry? There are many categories that could define La Tizná and, nevertheless, it is necessary to come to understand its singularities.
Mª Ángeles Muñoz Hornillo and José Antonio Barragán support this beautiful project where, they predict (and we confirm) you will come to eat well.
📍 c/ Camilo José Cela, 1
11. El cuelgue
Is it possible to have refined tapas at reasonable prices and away from the hustle and bustle of the center? The answer, we are pleased to announce, is yes if one drops by the El cuelgue of the Jerez Santi Temblador.
A brief menu is always appreciated, especially if it is lavished on appetizing street snacks.
So, what will the diner find among his creations? Just a dozen dishes to share (their churros with cod chocolate and black salmorejo are one of the most fun options) and tasty montaditos.
Our favorites: duck pringá with lime mayo and cilantro and butterfish in steamed mollete with truffle mayonnaise and mushrooms.
📍 c/ Valle, 2
12. Veganí
Veganí is the proof that vegan cuisine can strut its stuff. Seasonal food, natural wines, a lively and diaphanous space and a couple of dishes that are inserted in our favorites in recent months. Tapas, sandwiches and stews that show that here they take the product by flag with ideal dimensions to share.
📍 c/ Feria, 117
13. Ricca, first pizza omakase bar
Ricca dares to break the standards of the non-negotiable tradition and brings to Seville the first pizza omakase bar in Spain. In other words: the diner has the opportunity to put himself in the hands of the master pizzaiolo and attend a tasting menu at the chef’s will.
📍c/ Dos de mayo, 26
14. Desacato
Don’t be fooled by its industrial look, the experience at Desacato is as close as its elaborations. The best of Andalusian recipes with Basque influences halfway between Duque and Alameda.
Pablo Carrasco leads one of the most interesting kitchens in recent years. A must: his lamb caramel from Burgos with Pedro Ximénez reduction.
📍 c/ Amor de Dios, 7
15. Leartá
Recently awarded with a Sol Repsol, Manu Lachica and Rita Llanes’s restaurant has become a benchmark in its newcomer’s journey.
They opened last year with the aim of combining haute cuisine and the essence of Andalusian recipes.
📍 c/ Padre Tarín, 6
16. Kinu
Kinu is the great embassy of Japanese gastronomy in Seville, nestled in a privileged location and serving one of the most unique experiences in the city.
You can devote yourself to its tasting menu or let yourself go in its omakase bar. Authentic display of Japanese cuisine and one of the best restaurants in Seville.
📍 c/ Miguel Mañara, 11
17. La Barra de Cañabota
In the refined Barra de Cañabota you breathe the same essence as its starry counterpart, wall to wall.
The taste for the product and the consecration to the sea in the heart of Seville. In this case, there is no tasting menu, although it promises an elevated experience.
Tapas around fish and seafood without sacrificing indisputable quality. Undoubtedly, one of the top restaurants in Seville.
📍 c/ Orfila, 5
18. Itálica
The new Abascal is based on an interesting embrace between Andalusian recipes and ingredients with techniques, recipes and food from Italy. A formula that works and patents in a concise menu.
Like any self-respecting trattoria, the idea is that the diner is delighted with a homemade and affordable food. The prices allow you to get an appetizer around 30 € per diner.
In short, a bold cuisine under the rubric of Iberian and the affection that Abascal prints in all his projects.
📍 Plaza del Duque de la Victoria, 9
19. Zurbarán’s Tavern
Who said that to procure some of the best tapas in Seville, just a few steps from Las Setas was going to be so profitable?
The Zurbarán tavern is today a promise of good food for visitors, yes, but especially for locals who miss quality and price in the food served downtown.
Here, they offer succulent meatballs, croquettes, ensaladilla, tortilla (which runs out soon, mind you) and so many other recipes to indulge in.
📍 Plaza de Zurbarán, 2
20. Tribeca
Tribeca is a party in the heart of the Buhaira neighborhood and its work is commendable.
The proposal is linked to seasonal products, which is why its menu is renewed with some frequency, to which they add certain elaborations outside the menu.
A twist to the traditional recipe book using new forms and textures. A commitment to market cuisine, the quality of the products and high doses of creativity. By far, one of the best restaurants in Seville.
📍 c/ Chaves Nogales, 3
21. Castizo
Castizo is able to stand out with personality in the heart of El Arenal.
Its menu includes tapas classics, fried food, stews and all kinds of fish dishes. And the fact is that fish is the common thread of this casual space that does not renounce to a very good quality in its elaborations.
📍 c/ Zaragoza, 6
22. Ivantxu Bistronomic Space
Los Remedios keeps for itself its greatest culinary jewel. Iván Valero captains this house that combines a first class product with Andalusian and Basque elements. The key is, possibly, that it always comes out well.
The fried fish, his everlasting cod fritters, huge clams or hake, which in my opinion is still among the culinary wonders of Seville. Meats also occupy a primordial place in this restaurant, which houses in the same space a new concept: La Carmela de Ivantxu.
In this case, it recovers classic pintxos and tapas that go from north to south elevating the art of the bar.
📍 c/ Virgen de la Victoria, 5
23. Thirst for Mexico
What at first glance might seem like a tourist nook to entertain the visitor with viands come to less in the bowels of Santa Cruz, actually turns out to be one of the best culinary embassies of Mexico.
It is at La Cantina by Sed de México where the fiesta of flavor is celebrated, with Mexican cuisine as the absolute protagonist.
One of the best options to introduce us to this powerful gastronomy and, therefore, one of the best restaurants in Seville.
📍 c/ Rodrigo Caro with Plaza de la Alianza
24. La cochera del abuelo
Although La cochera del abuelo opened only a couple of years ago, it has already established itself as a reference in Sevillian gastronomy. Chef Bosco Benítez is at the helm of the stoves and among his delicious preparations, the cheesecake (whose recipe is reserved) is a jewel to the palate.
📍 c/ Álvaro de Bazán, 2.
25. Ispal
Chef Andrés Onofri Ruiz has prepared a menu with typical dishes from the capital with 100% Sevillian products. The suckling pig with carrot puree, vanilla and roasted garlic is delicious.
📍 Prado de San Sebastián, 1
26. El Disparate
Nacho Gallardo is responsible for the kitchens of El Disparate, one of the gastronomic temples of Seville where to delight with irresistible tapas. His dishes manage to get a smile out of anyone.
Andalusian cuisine with a renewed air that combines wonderfully with its large terrace. The starred eggs El Gallinero de Sandra rescues one of the emblematic dishes of this seal.
📍 Alameda de Hércules, 11
27. Eslava Space
In the vicinity of the Alameda there is a corner whose flavors continue to conquer all appetites. The fame precedes it: it is one of the best rated restaurants in Seville on the Internet and it is not for less: its tapas are crazy.
Although there are many reasons to drop by this classic, in the first links we place its egg in boletus sponge cake or the Bécquer cigar.
📍 c/ Eslava, 3
28. Bread and Circus
Cristina Galeote, who headed other projects such as Red House or No-lugar the art company, and Kike Domínguez are behind Pan y Circo, this brilliant idea located in the vicinity of El Salvador.
Three floors full of unique pieces and an unmistakable aroma of good food complete this space where gastronomy and art go hand in hand as never before.
📍c/ Rivero, 11
29. El Sella
With slightly more avant-garde tastes, at least in terms of presentation, El Sella prepares a first-class cachopo, the jewel of Asturian cuisine in the heart of Triana. Its menu includes tortos con picadillo, cheeses and Asturian cider, exquisite meats and, of course, the long-awaited cachopo.
Among the goodness of El Sella is knowing how to combine the best of Andalusian and Asturian cuisine and the possibility of taking it gluten-free and lactose-free.
📍 c/ Pureza, 4
30. Sobretablas
Chef Camila Ferraro and sommelier Robert Tetas are the perfect tandem that sustains Sobretablas, a high-end restaurant where you can breathe the influence of El Celler de Can Roca. Several floors make up this space, located in one of the buildings for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929.
A gastronomic journey from beginning to end where part of the Andalusian recipe book is combined with the techniques of our days. A background cuisine with more than appetizing presentations that will delight those who are fortunate enough to taste them.
📍 c/ Colombia, 7
31. Amara
Donostia-born chef Javier Febo is behind Amara, this restaurant on Calle Zaragoza adjusted to seasonal produce and which includes among its offerings an irresistible tasting menu.
Among the proposals you will find an appetizing nigiri croquette with red tuna and kimchi; leeks confit, foie cream, garlic honey and harissa or crispy pig’s ear and glass shrimp.
📍c/ Zaragoza, 18
32. Las Golondrinas
Las Golondrinas is a more than reputable corner of Triana. A small and authentic place that has been harvesting a reasonable fame for years. So much so that it has a second location with a modern touch but without losing its essence.
📍 c/ Antillano Campos, 26 | c/ Pagés del Corro, 74
33. Az-Zait
Opening a creative cuisine restaurant in a traditional tapas area of Seville can be madness… or genius. Culinary avant-gardism in the center of Seville is Az-zait, whose name refers to “olive juice” and where diners will find different tasting menus to match.
📍 Plaza de San Lorenzo, 1
34. Chiquilla
Chiquilla is barely 2 years old but it can already boast of being the pretty girl of the Arenal neighborhood. Fish, seafood, good pieces of meat and an assortment of tapas to round off your culinary appointments.
They have a succinct terrace and we suspect that the reader will like it as much as we do. Chef Urbano González leads this space where booking a table is a great idea.
📍 c/ Pastor y Landero, 21
35. Marabunda Food
From the tapas and dishes that fill its menu, the influence of Ovejas Negras on Marabunda Food’s chef, Francis Balongo, is clear.
You can imagine and salivate at the same time: chicharrón de papada fried with lime, carabinero croquette or tiradito of salmon in mango tiger’s milk.
A fresh and lively space a few steps from the Alameda de Hércules.
📍 c/ Jesús del Gran Poder, 31
36. Puratasca
Puratasca has earned a reputation in the Barrio de Triana, and no wonder. A priori it may seem a tasca of all life, however they offer very creative and copious dishes in one of the most traditional neighborhoods of Seville.
📍 c/ Numancia, 5
37. La Cayetana
In Cayetana they serve tapas and casual dishes that acquire the power to make us want to repeat. They have two establishments in the city, although we prefer the one located in Javier Lasso de la Vega.
Not to be missed are their potato omelette made at the moment or their cheek cannelloni. Andalusian bistro, concise menu, at reasonable prices and right in the center.
📍 c/ Javier Lasso de la Vega, 9
38. La barra de Inchausti
In 2029, siblings Isidro, Jorge and Conchi Inchausti launched this restaurant, one of the best in Seville for those who delight with taste with seafood products.
In the vicinity of Avenida de la Constitución, it is a promise of good food: a profuse variety of seafood and fish whose quality is non-negotiable.
c/ Tomás de Ibarra, 10
39. Casa Paco Good food
When talking about gastronomic bars, it is imperative to mention the brief but very lively Casa Paco, next to Luis Montoto. You can eat in the lounge or on the terrace with high tables or, as this traditional redoubt demands, at the bar where you can order orders and fish off the menu.
It seems that you are not in Seville when you look up to these low houses two steps away from a soccer field and a shopping center. But it is Seville. And Casa Paco is one of the best restaurants in Seville, where the naked product rules, the diners crowded together and the wines and beers everywhere.
📍 c/ Luis Huidobro, 23
40. Tradevo
In Tradevo they take care of the details and precise technique and pampering that require their dishes, elaborations with a southern air that, as its name indicates, agglutinate tradition and evolution. A menu of high quality dishes, prepared and presented in a casual yet sophisticated way to share.
📍 Cuesta del Rosario, 15 | Diego Martínez Barrio, 10
41. Blanca Paloma
Another essential temple as far as the palate is concerned. To come to Triana and not to pass by here is clearly a gastronomic sin. In Blanca Paloma the flavors of all the life commune in an incomparable atmosphere.
The reader should know, in any case, that reservations are not allowed on the terrace and it is a very busy restaurant. It is necessary to arrive in good time and avoid long queues.
A guarantee as far as Andalusian fried food is concerned (we especially celebrate their pavías de bacalao ) along with other unbeatable classics and great inventions.
📍 c/ San Jacinto, 49
42. Casa Consuelo
Fortunately -because the economic situation and tourism are not making it easy- there are still some neighborhood restaurants in Seville where you can eat properly and pay the right price. These restaurants offer a handful of dishes and fried food and a few other dishes off the menu depending on the market and the season.
So Casa Consuelo, which in the heart of Nervión serves a memorable and close cuisine. Its rice dishes will soothe any Friday at noon.
📍 Pintor Amalio García del Moral Square
43. Besana Tapas
Haute cuisine but without fuss, tapas in bites that are not miniatures. Besana Tapas is that stop between fine dining and traditional tapas. In other words: a donut but a carrillá donut, waffles that serve as bravas or a lamb pionono.
This refined little bar is located in the heart of Utrera but also in Los Remedios.
📍 c/ Niño perdido, 1 (Utrera, Sevilla) | c/ Virgen de las Huertas, 1
44. Üailló pizza lab
Üailló’s pizzas -for those of us who have been looking for authentic, light and delicious pizzas without strange licenses- are a reason to celebrate. La Alameda has this elongated place that dispenses these creations based on fresh ingredients, with proposals always off the menu.
Everything we ask of a real Italian pizza at more than reasonable prices.
📍 c/ Niño perdido, 1
45. El Rinconcillo
The oldest bar in Seville is still going strong 300 years later. It still preserves the tradition of writing down the bill with chalk on the mahogany bar, as if it were a blackboard, and its menu continues to respect tradition. Pavías, croquettes or scrambled eggs ooze tradition and flavor as the first day.
📍 c/ Gerona, 40
46. Manolo León
One of the best restaurants where you will eat in Seville, where in addition to spending an evening in a charming and elegant Andalusian courtyard. A setting that is priceless and a staff at the height of its cuisine and environment.
📍 c/ Guadalquivir, 8
47. Alimentari
An assortment of irresistible starters, salads, pastas, pizzas and some meat and fish options complete this purely Italian menu.
Make room for dessert, their pastiera napoletana or the panna cotta they make here are out of this world.
Fresh pasta made by themselves, a recipe book to cry over (in a good way, of course) and the possibility of ordering for delivery. Infallible keys to never fail with this first class Italian, one of the best restaurants in Seville.
📍 c/ Bartolomé de la Medina, 21 izq.
48. ConTenedor
It is one of our favorite restaurants in Seville to give us a good tribute but attending to the quality of raw materials and seasonal products.
A full-fledged reinvention of each of the foods they propose and a trip to the palate that should be done at least once in a lifetime.
📍 c/ San Luis, 50
49. Becerrita
Becerrita is an acclaimed restaurant in the city that continues to highlight the value of traditional cuisine. It is a gastronomic festival, flagged as one of the best restaurants in Seville, which has been standing since 1988. Delicacies such as croquettes preserve the fame of this temple.
📍 c/ Recaredo, 9
50. Al-Wadi
A restaurant that proposes a new concept of restoration and fusion gastronomy, with influences from Syria, Lebanon and Morocco. The best Middle Eastern cuisine in El Arenal.
📍 c/ Jimios, 32
