Puratasca

Updated June 2026

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, with retro food pics painted on the windows and fun kitsch décor, but the food is all up to the moment innovative tapas, all expertly prepared in the open kitchen by chef Raúl Vera Rojas and team. On a recent visit I was disappointed to find one of my favourites, the chorizo in tempura, had been taken off the menu, but there was plenty of other wonderful dishes, old and new, to enjoy. We especially loved the semi-cured presa Ibérica carpaccio and the bacalao in tempura, and of course couldn’t leave without having the arroz meloso.

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.

  1. 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…
