Updated February 2024
\n\"\"<\/h3>\n

La Pe\u00f1a Restaurante was another of the many newer restaurants in Sevilla to buck the gastrobar trend and focus on traditional dishes with attention to quality ingredients and presentation. Upstairs from the newly relocated La Pe\u00f1a Sevillista Eindhoven (the actual pe\u00f1a has their space downstairs) this is a collaboration with culinary dream team Marco Su\u00e1rez (front of house), Alejandro Coutelier (chef) and Isaac Gonz\u00e1lez, owner of Restaurante Jacarand\u00e1 (Higuera de la Sierra).<\/p>\n

The inside is well-lit with lots of natural light and with cosy simple homestyle furnishings, including clever and attractive tables that can be raised\/lowered or expanded as needed.\u00a0 The menu is also simple and well thought out with cold starters, salads, stews, fried fish and meats. There are also several daily specials, as this is primarily a fresh market driven kitchen. The wine list is short but with a good selection of excellent regional and national wines.<\/p>\n

I know it’s unhelpful to recommend EVERYTHING on the menu, but I have loved all the dishes I’ve tried here.\u00a0 The housemade marinated tuna belly a la sal is first slow baked while covered in salt, then steeped in evoo, manzanilla sherry, lime and herbs. Salads are crisp, fresh and organic, including the dressed radishes, which Marco explained used to be a very typical starter at tapas bars in the old days.\u00a0 The whole crispy fried choquito (small cuttlefish) is a must have, as are any of the perfectly grilled Ib\u00e9rico meats. For menudo-lovers (I’m afraid I’m not one of them) I am told the one at La Pe\u00f1a is a house speciality and one of its most ordered dishes. And don’t leave without trying the empanada Salte\u00f1a filled with tender beef, egg and veggies. So much flavour and great texture too. Some of the photos below are of daily specials so you may not see them when you visit, but there will be something just as delicious available.<\/p>\n
