The 6 Best Spanish Restaurants In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Surrounded by blocks of auto repair shops, La Española is not so much a restaurant as a semi-hidden grocery and deli with every Spanish food item under the sun: house-cured jamon, manchego, olive oil, wine, and more types of tinned fish than you can count. While we’re there stocking up on vermouth, we like to order one of their affordable bocadillos: long, skinny sandwiches on crunchy, oil-drizzled bread stuffed with things like serrano ham, chorizo, or tomatoey anchovies. They're also famous for the batches of paella they cook up every Saturday—just be sure to call ahead to pre-order, as they sell out fast." - sylvio martins, garrett snyder
