I love this place. It’s cosy and intimate, yet lively and friendly. The food is excellent, the service is top-notch … just go! Run by the very personable Juan (Sevilla) and his wife Jeanine (California), La Azotea offers two menus – one that changes seasonally, and the other weekly, depending on what looks good and fresh at the market. Tapas are available at the bar, full and half raciones at the tables. Be sure to reserve as there are just six tables, and then look forward to a very pleasant dining experience.

And coming soon – the Azotea gourmet food & wine shop.

I had read so much about this place that when a friend invited me out for a special lunch I suggested we go to Restaurante Bobo. All I can say is – don’t bother. Tapas-sized dishes (though they don’t call them tapas) are priced at about 5 euros. The two dishes we tried were okay, but not worth the price. The bacalao with bechamel and spinach had no spinach (though it did come with a hair on the lower serving plate!). When we asked the waitress about the missing spinach she insisted it didn’t come with spinach until we pointed it out to her on the menu, at which point she insisted it must be somewhere underneath the bacalao in the sauce. It wasn’t.

The service was abyssmal. Three waitresses stood at the bar paying us no attention, except when one tried to remove our plates while we still had our forks in our hands. And the “best part” was when I was taking photos and I heard the cook say quite loudly to the waitresses: “Mira la japonesa!”- obviously thinking I was a tourist who didn’t speak Spanish.

Normally I don’t bother writing about places I have visited that I didn’t enjoy. But I thought Restaurante Bobo deserved a special mention. Consider yourself warned.

Recently moved from the original site just around the corner on Dos de Mayo, this new version of Meson de la Infanta – now called Infanta Sevilla – has a fresh and modern atmosphere and retains its renowned high quality of classic Andalusian cooking along with professional & friendly service. Favourite dishes include the grilled lamb kidneys and wonderfully crispy fried puntillitas (baby squid).
