This restaurant is a longstanding one in DTLB, which is one of the few Spanish places in SoCal. They have branches in Costa Mesa and San Diego, which we haven't tried. It's only open on weekends. We went on a Friday evening with a reservation. The ambiance was excellent, we felt like we were transported to Spain. Service was very slow and the waiter hardly ever came to check up on us. I am giving 5 stars in spite of the poor service because of the ambiance and food. Live music started at 8 pm.We did a wine flight. For appetizers we had the Spanish Salchichas a la Plancha, which was excellent, flambeed tableside. We also tried the Queso Fundido with chorizo, which was good and the Patatas Bravas, which was very good. We had the family style Paella Valencia, which was excellent. We ended with flan, which was good. Consider watching the Flamenco show, if you want a special experience.

I have been dying to try this place as I am a big fan of paella and tapas in general and this past weekend my wife and I finally made it here for dinner. Everything was absolutely delicious. We started off with some calamari as that is one of our favorite things and the dipping sauces that came with it were delicious. Next we tried their dates stuffed with blue cheese and wrapped in bacon, these were absolutely fantastic but be prepared for a really strong blue cheese. After that we had their croquettes which my wife absolutely loved the combination of cheese and Serrano ham. Next up we tried the albondigas, these were pretty good overall but not our favorite dish. The final tapa was the sausage medley and that was really good! We finished the night with their traditional paella which checked all of the boxes for me.The service was really good, our waitress was constantly checking in and making sure we had everything we needed although our second order of croquettes came out cold. I think that is more to do with business picking up and it getting crowded but they did take that order off the bill. As for ambience the restaurant has a very intimate feel with love music which makes for a nice date night. Get there early and the tapas are all half off which is even better. The only thing I will do g them for is how loud it gets. I am very sensitive to loud places and by the time we were finished it was at the point where it was kind of hard to hear. I will definitely be back to explore more of the menu though!

My husband and I recently celebrated our 25th Anniversary at Events on Pine, which is right next to Cafe Sevilla. Since we were right next door we hired Cafe Sevilla to do our catering. WE WERE SO PLEASED! Lisa Pittman was a dream to work with in planning our menu, and everything else. The food, the service, EVERYTHING was excellent. Our guests were very happy with the Tapas, the buffet and the dessert. Cafe Sevilla is awesome and we highly recommend them!!

Ambiance was tasteful and upscale. Loved the live music. Food was AMAZING, spare ribs melted in my mouth. Vegetables were grilled to perfection. Garlic Mash Potatoes were delicious Service was AWESOME and on point from the time we walked in - greeter immediately acknowledged my reservation (impressive) to being thanked for coming by the manager as we walked out (class act)

Came here for my boyfriend's birthday and absolutely loved it! Better to come on Sundays for the half off paela. They also offer a happy hour where all tapas are 50% off! The paela was SOO full of flavor. The bamba rice was my favorite part of the dish. Really liekd their apps too and would recommend the papas bravasThe male waiter working on 12/1 was really friendly and brought out a free birthday dessert. It was cold outside but the heater wasnt working so the workers brought out the fireplace tooThere is a 2 hour free parking lot on 3rd street

We've been here a few times. But this last time we went, the food was not that great and the service was horrible. We have never had this happen before. First they told us that they didn't have a lot of the drinks on their menu and no straws. When we got our food, it was not the same as the other times. Flavors were off.

I've been coming to this location since it opened and have never been disappointed.. If you need a place for date night or if your single and ready to mingle this is the place Start with Happy Hour or order dinner. Food is good,service good and Drinks are on point. Order the Sangria if you don't know what to get. If you love Spanish flare and Paella you need to try it out.

Came here for an early birthday dinner. I love Spanish tapas but felt like this missed the mark. They have a small outdoor patio we sat at. If you bring a dog it's a nice place to sit. Got a couple of cocktails and they were decent. Now the food itself was okay. Squid ink paella was okay, rice and seafood (lobster, mussels, etc) was a bit dry. The bbq ribs and potatoes were okay. Not fall off the bones tender but still soft and flavorful. Ceviche and calamari were both mid. Empanadas were the best thing. I think part of the reason this place gets good reviews is the ambiance inside. It looked really nice but I can't really speak to that experience. At some point there was live music. The service was lacking too. Our waitress didn't come to check on us often. There was a moment I wanted to order a second drink but she never came around and we were almost done with our meal. For something on the pricier side, I was expecting better food and service.
