Yes, you will get lost, and upon finally arriving will likely wonder what sort of greasy spoon joint (or “tasca”) you’ve ended up at … and it will all be worth it. The 70’s style dive look is intentional, maintained after this summer’s reno, with retro food pics painted on the windows and fun kitsch décor, but the food is all up to the moment gourmet fusion tapas, and all expertly prepared in front of you in the open kitchen by chef Raúl Vera Rojas and team. Don’t miss the tempura chorizo pops and the super creamy-cheesy arroz meloso with setas and white truffle. Seriously… chorizo in tempura. You KNOW you want it.
Be sure to either get there early or book – there are tables both inside and out on the sidewalk terrace. Aside from the great food and excellent service there is also a very smart and ever-changing wine list, with lots of good options served by the glass. Some photos here are of daily specials, so they may not be on offer when you visit, but for sure there will be something equally delicious.
Be sure to save room for the fabulous house-made desserts.

I lived on this street for three years and loved becoming the “neighbor” to this bar. Great wine list and creative tapas. I usually ask for one hot, one cold and see what they bring me, but the risottos are not to be missed, like the piruletas. And the desserts…
I think having Puratasca on my street would be very dangerous for me!
Hi,
Your blog is lovely and has been a great hlp in picking up vegetarian friendly places in Seville. After reading your review of puratasca we would love to go there. However was wondering if they would have enough vegetaian options available.
