Bodega Santa Cruz Las Columnas

My husband and I chose this place for our very first tapas experience and OMG it was overwhelming but so much fun😂 Thank you Senor Manuel for being patient with us! He was super friendly and nice. You are the best!!!! We just went up to the bar and ordered with no problem. The serving time was super fast! We were able to grab a seat later on and made friends with people sitting around us. Everything was delicious and so much fun! Highly recommended just for the experience but food was also good. Huevas fritas was our favorite😋

If you want tapas with soul, noise, and a splash of glorious chaos - Bodega Santa Cruz “Las Columnas” is the place to plant yourself (if you can find a spot). This legendary tapas bar sits just steps from the cathedral, and yes, it’s always packed… This is old-school Andalusian charm at its finest: orders shouted over clinking glasses and to get a place good luck elbowing your way to the counter. The tapas? Ridiculously good for the price. The montaditos are tiny flavour and the fried goodies come out golden, crispy, and unapologetically addictive. Order a cruzcampo or two—because cold beer tastes better when you’re standing shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers who are also having the time of their lives. Fair warning: don’t expect fancy seating, personal space, or a quiet conversation. This is a fun, messy, delicious adventure—like being adopted by a loud Andalusian family for 20 minutes. Prices are great so be prepared to drink and even eat on the street with your bunch of crazy friends

A great place where you can try local food. The crowd was so big that we hardly found a place at least at bar. Which turned out to be a great thing, because the gentleman who served us was very interesting and very helpful. Although I speak little Spanish, I understood everything and it was very interesting to me. So much so that I didn't even bother to order anything, I just let him present the tapas that are the specialties of the house. It was delicious. I especially liked the Montadito de Pringa and Carillada. I would love to go back to this place. All recommendations.

This place is FUN! Get ready to elbow your way (gently) to the bar, and order from a wide variety of excellent tapas. The prices are very reasonable. The bartenders are have got attitude, but in a good and playful way. They might assume you want to have a beer, but I made sure to try out various sherry wines, which they also have. Plenty of tourists, but plenty of Spaniards here, too. With a bit of luck, you can grab a table the instant one becomes free. I've walked by here 5 times in the past three days and it's packed every time. But don't give up -- just get to the bar. Or maybe you can even find a table outside. Enjoy!

A real tapas bar. Not a tourist trap. All the tapas from the kitchen are at 3.10 euros. A beer 1.70 You will have a lot of food like 5 different dishes and 3 beers for 22-23 euros. Cold and hot dishes. One of my favorite is fried eggplant with honey!

- filled with local people and good tapas - the staff are so friendly and recommend signature cuisine for me. Their smiles make the journey better though cannot understand the language. Please visit there if you pass by! - all the food are delicious and amazing! - the portion is big enough and price is reasonable! - truly appreciate the guests sit nearby, one recommend spinach with five cheese while one help opening the bottle of juice :) thank you so much

Absolute gem in central Seville! Authentic amazing flavour profile. Well priced! Had to make multiple trip back. Highly recommended!

Good place to try local food. The prices here are good and the value for money as well. You can stand outside to enjoy the sun and a drink or sit inside. The food is served very quickly. The perfect place to try different flavors of the culture!

Very good food! We got the solomio al whiskey, which was my favorite dish we tried. We also got the cold potato salad, which didn't taste like any other potato salad I've had before. The mayo they used tasted more like a garlic aioli -- I loved it! We were also recommended this fish dish cooked in tomato sauce, and as someone who doesn't eat fish that much, I really liked it! This is a very small bar with limited seating. It does get busy, so be patient and be ready to snag a seat when it's available.

We came here for lunch. Another local small tapas place in Sevilla. I feel like we ordered similar things in all these places because we loved them. We had croquetas again and they were good but not amazing. In Sevilla everything was served with potatoes/fries- which I was happy since I love potatoes. We had more jamon and cheese- check! More vino tinto (red wine) check! The service was ok- I guess more traditional and not meant for tourists which it was fine by me. Prices were excellent here. The more local the better the prices. Overall it was a great experience and even the ok food in Spain was great food!

One of many tapas cafe near Seville Cathedral, so filled with many tourists. I came here per friend's recommendation for cheap and good tapas, but unfortunately I didn't realize they have a different menu for breakfast. We ended up coming by at 10am and a man offered us a counter table. There wasn't a menu to look at; he pretty much asked if we wanted coffee and croissant. It wasn't what I expected, so ended up getting the Iberian Ham Sandwich since I saw many other tables with it as well. This was very basic and I'm glad we just got one to share instead of our own. We tried coming back later in the evening for lunch, but it was so busy. Maybe the tapas is better, but not sure if it's worthwhile with how busy they are.

I found them online and so glad that I did! The bar is always packed and busy with both locals and tourists, so expect to stand up or you may get lucky and find a table! The staff is nice, friendly and attentive even with it is super busy! Once you place your tapas order, you get it very fast! I got the revuelto de calabacin, the paella, the atun al ajillo and a beer. Everything was flavorful, tasty and fresh! Definitely stop by and try them out!

Everything went well! It was the place to be! The vibe the food the beers everything! No waiter that comes to your table- go up the counter and order!

This place is always hopping. Very rustic and casual. Fast service. Pretty good tapas. Very reasonable prices. Go at off times or you'll never get a table. There's always standing room in the square. They're open early and open late.

Really enjoyed the unpretentious and lively vibe. We stood around the bar and enjoyed beer and some tapas. The bartender asked if we wanted to be served whatever he recommended and we agreed. All four tapas were delicious. Only downside was the server who was a bit rude in tone when instructing us move over from 'her area'. Recommended.

If I could, I should rate it "0" for dirty environment, poor service and can foods! Especially VERY UNFRIENDLY to Asian tourists even kept yelling "SIT AND WAIT" for nothing, and taking wrong orders. AVOID!!!!!

food is so good and cheap! Drink is pretty good as well.I definitely recommend this place

This tapas bar was very much recommended by the tour guide. When I walked in, it was packed...loud and very crowded....I found my way to the bar counter, pushing and shoving people.. finally I got the attention of one of the bartenders and I asked for a montadito....the food came within a few minutes, I guess they mass produce them, because it was really quick. The small sandwich was tasty and fresh, but dealing with that many people and the crowds is not my cup of tea. I heard late at night, it's even more crowded....Lord !!

This was the first tapas spot I got to try in Spain. It was so hectic, but then all other tapas places seem to be... It was so hard to order stuff, I had no idea what to get and to make things worse there is a separate menu for earlier in the day vs later in the day that I didn't realize until way later. It was a much more limited menu earlier in the day. The guy at the bar patiently helped me order several things, like calamari, serrano jamon, montaditos, etc. Most of the stuff was good, especially with beer.

Amazing tapas. nice cold beer. Great staff, very happening place. Came back a second time, will probably go back tomorrow!

My wife and I were on vacation in Seville and it is right in the heart of Seville, right near the beautiful cathedral. This place was so good, we actually went twice. I liked that you could get three sizes of tapas. You could get tapas for like 2.50 Euros each. I tried the cheeks and beer and you get free potato chips, but the put a glop of mayonnaise on them, yuck, but they do that everywhere in Spain. The braised cheek is a must try. The service was quick, we went back about 4 and the menu gets less and less as the day goes on. They have paella you can get in tapa size. Wonderful and I got three different meat sandwiches. The free croquettes were awesome as well. There was about a fifteen minute wait about noon, but this place is totally worth it.

There are so many great tapas places in Spain but sadly I didn't feel like the Bodega Santa Cruz was one of them. The tapas were cheap and so I guess you get what you pay for. We tried the following 5 tapas and we also ordered two glasses of sangria: -Queso frito (fried goat cheese) -paella (saffron rice dish) -queso y espinacas (spinach and cheese dip) -tortilla de patatas (frittata with potato) -patatas con tomate (potatoes smothered in a tomato sauce) In order to get the food we had to order hurriedly at the bar then carry the plates over to a table outside. We really didn't care for having to wrestle our way through people just to place the order. Out of everything we offered the patatas con tomate and the queso/espinacas dish were the best but still did not blow me away. Everything was pretty average and bland. However, the paella was over salted which made it hard to eat without gulping down my sangria. This place was a miss for me. The food was mediocre and I'd rather pay a few more bucks for some tapas that have more flavor.

The tapas here are cheap but the quality is fairly mediocre. Since Spain has so much good tapas, I really don't recommend going here. Instead imo it makes more sense to spend a bit more for much better quality food. We had read comments about it being really busy, but we didn't have any issues getting a seat around 530pm on a Wednesday. Also we were served pretty promptly. Tried a few items and didn't really find any to be particularly good. For example the sardines seemed to be straight from a can!

Don't get the hype. Came here for dinner and already half the menu was out. You must refer to the written menu on the wall to see what's available. Everything seemed to be deep fried in some way, the epitome of bar food. Nothing was seasoned well. We didn't finish our plates since it was so carb loaded and greasy. Only good thing was the price. Wouldn't recommend consider how many other choices you have with real, fresh food in the area.

100% got food poisoning from here and the food was mediocre too. currently 3am and both are sick. husband has a fever after puking. we ordered: tortilla with whiskey sauce some meat dish with whiskey sauce spinach with cheese croquettes we ate around 4:30/5pm

Excellent, cheap tapas! What more could you ask for! This place is located near the cathedral, so it's a short walk over, and it can be pretty busy, but I had no problem finding a standing spot at the bar and ordering at eating from there. My favorite was the beef stew, it was excellent and really good! It was rich in flavor and it was the only one I ended up finishing entirely. I also got the creamy spinach one, which actually tasted like those spinach dips you get with tortilla chips back in the states. It was good too but a bit rich. I ordered the cheese one, and while it was good, it was fried, and it came with a plate of other sweet kind of items to balance out the taste of the cheese. That being said, it was still really rich, and while I enjoyed it, it was a bit much. I also had the paella, but I did not find it all that good. The rice was a bit grainy and the flavors were kind of boring and off. It tasted like really bad, wet "Mexican rice", which I usually love but not in a super wet form.

You know it's a good place when it's JAM PACKED and everyone is willing to stand to eat. If you love tapas or want to try tons of dishes, I highly recommend this place, plus they're pretty cheap! Fried Goat Cheese- 4/5 Nearly every person was ordering this dish and I didn't want to miss out. It is fried goat cheese after all and I'm sure we can all assume what it taste like. It was yummy though and the portion is somewhat big for 1 person. Marinated Dogfish- 5/5 This is my favorite dish in Spain, and here they make it pretty good as well!

Loved this place so much that I came here twice during my 3 day stay in Seville. It was definitely busy in there but my friend and I actually preferred standing at the bar. They even track your tab on the bar table with chalk which is near. The staff were super friendly and entertaining. We tried a lot of the dishes which were about 2-3 euros each. My favourite were the eggplant and honey and fried sardines which were both very popular.

Some of the most delicious tapas we had in Sevilla. Very crowded but it's part of the experience. We had house wine which was rioja. Soft and airy. We ordered the solomillo en salsa de whiskey, patatas aioli which is a cold potato salad. The flavor was amazing but it was served cold which we didn't realize upon ordering. The churrasco was also amazing. They had their own version on chimichurri sauce which was more olives based than we're used to in the states which has a parsley and oregano base.

Trendy, popular place to stand at the bar and if you are exceedingly lucky maybe find a place to sit. More seating outside, but it's been too damn hot before 9pm to do so. Extensive range of tapas and pinchos. I like the gazpacho soup and the fried calamari aren't bad. I also really like the Montaditos pringá, kind of like a slider, made of beef or pork with chorizo. And at roughly 2-3€ a pop it won't break your bank. Oh, and ask for the local beer or house white wine--both are quite acceptable. Be sure to say hello to Luis who works very bad behind the counter to get your order into the kitchen and back out with good speed. And watch him write your order literally on the bar--most places no longer do so!

We hunted this place down based on the 4 star reviews but I'm not quite sharing the opinion. We did arrive pretty late and some items were not available. There are far better places in this area, so check menus and good luck!

Amazing food! We were skeptical of any highly rated place around tourist attractions because its usually going to be ratings by tourists who are overly happy with whatever they get because they don't know any better, which was definitely the case more often than not. This tapateria deserves every star they have, trust! Everything here was around 2 euros a plate so we ended up getting about ten plates between the two of us. Im sure they were laughing at us lol but its was so good! I've never had such a good gazpacho before, so refreshing and citrusy. My 3 have to get highly recommend dishes were the gazpacho, the champinon y jamon, and the almejas. The latter came in a wine, garlic and lemon butter sauce that was just amazing. Can't say enough good about this place. I am so jealous of the people who live near here who can eat here anytime they want

This is was just okay. Sangria was terrible and a waste of money. We ordered five plates: crocets, calamari, chicken strips, tortilla and spinach dip. The Spinach dip was great, really good. The rest was not good at all. The service is non existent. You have to order the food at the counter, get your own seat and then get up and get your own food. The lady that was taking our order was super rude, if we paused for a second to order the next item, she would walk off to take another customer's order. We were super disappointed.

My lord! This place was the best tapas we've had in Seville. Saw the rating and reviews on here and it did not disappoint. We got 4 - the spinach one, fried eggplant, chicken tears, and one that resembled chunks of beef stew. They are very very busy. The staff is actually friendly and fun but I'd recommend having at least an idea of what you want or order something familiar to start. That guy can buy some time to see what others are getting or figure out the menu.

Bodega Santa Cruz was around the corner from our hotel so we ended up coming here a few times. It was packed with people at all hours night and day. Like most tapas bars, you need to squeeze your way through the crowd and shout your order out. You get your food pretty quickly and everything is around 2-3 euros. The menu is written all over the walls in Spanish. We loved the fried eggplant with honey. Thinly sliced and fried with a drizzling of honey = YUMMMMM! boquerones (anchovies) in vinegar pringa (slow cooked meat that is diced finely and used as a spread) berejenas con miel (fried egglplant with honey)

I think this place was very good and authentic. I had the spinach with cream, pringa and the croqueras. I would come back to try more things.

The four tapas dishes we had were decent, but no better than most tapas we have had so far in Seville. Certainly good food for the price however. Atmosphere was ok but certainly one of the most touristy spots. Didn't live up to the hype I had heard before going.

Delicious food. Great prices. Very local experience. We had the 5 cheese dip and a few other tapas plates. Can't go wrong.

Total cost was 7,20 for Sobrasada (full bun) Tomato and olive oil (full bun) Cafe solo White coffee 2 beers The price still blows my mind for a good chunk of food and drink. It's amazing how much the prices changes once you're out of the touristy area. This is a small place with a few tables with seats inside, a few standing tables out front, and two outside on the side where you can sit. With the sobrasada and tomato/olive oil, you make it yourself. If you order a whole, you get this big piece of bread that they cut in half and toast. If you get half, then you just get one half. It's a big piece so you're probably good with one whole. We got two so we each could try a half. They give you the tub of sobrasada to spread on the bread. They give you a small cup of tomato spread and a bottle of olive oil to make it yourself. I wasn't sure if I'm suppose to take the whole tub or not so I just spread a good amount on my bread and left it there. They don't speak English so I managed with showing quantities with my fingers and pronouncing the food as best I could. It was a decently friendly place to us being tourists. I could tell the guy who I was trying to pay got frustrated because of the language barrier but I did the best I could and so did he, and we got through it just fine! :)

If you're in Sevilla, then you must must must go this place. Crowded? Yes. Loud? Yes. For a good reason? Yes! Although it might take some time, inch your way up to the bar and park yourself there. Be sure to stay for a while. Everything is great and once you make friends with the staff, you will certainly be well taken care of. Order and drink a little bit of everything. If you happen to forget, no worries, they've written your order right on the bar. Loved the salmon, croquettes, vermut, wine...hell everything was fantastic. For whatever reason, there were a ton of bachelor/bachelorette parties in town when we went, so stake your claim fast!

Spinach with four cheese was excellent. Service was great. Really nice. Crowded but fun. Came in with my three kids so fam friendly.

Cheap, good food, fun vibes! So good even locals eat & hangout here!!! It's just few steps away from the cathedral, it would have been our last priority. 4.7 with more than 3k review(google) that said a lot. Tourist trap? i do not think so. Prices average at 2.30€ for tapa, not bad fo being in the touristy area while other places were at 4-5€. But be informed that it gets crowded, squeeze yourselves to order at the counter, standing while eating & pay at the counter! We pretty much ordered most of the tapas but our favorite Salomillo con Whisky, Lomo Pedro Javier & Croqueta! We ate lunch & dinner & in between hours here during our 3 day vacation in November. To experience a tradition way different from ours(USA) is a plus! .

A must visit! Be warned- it is VERY crowded in the evenings, but if you pop in between lunch and dinner time you will not have a problem. My husband and I stood at the bar and tried a few different tapas as well as a couple of beers and glasses of their house red. We really enjoyed the potato salad with tuna (pictured). Would also be a fun place to enjoy an after dinner drink and post up at a table outside!

Why its 4.5 stars beats me. This little hole in the wall, is St. Cruz's neighborhood cheers. Good luck trying to find a seat, or a table. The place packs like overstuffed sardines... for a reason. CHEAP, cheap and fantastic tapas, CHEAP booze and crazy personalities! Javi got me hooked on a local Vermouth. The place has it ALL. Personality, attitude, noisy, hopping with people from all walks of life and the world. It's just crazy, very, very local, true locals!

My first stop in a 4-stop walking tapas tour (no guide). On arrival at about 7:00 pm, which is not the typical tapas hour, the place was already packed with all tables taken inside and lots of patrons smoking, drinking the local favorite beer, CruzCampos, and eating. I managed a spot at the bar for the family and ordered the beer. The bartender knew we were green peas so he recommended ordering for us. Usually know what I want but since he insisted and I can eat anything he dishes, I agreed. I was rather disappointed with his selections as most of it was either breaded or consisted of potatoes (fries or chips). There was nothing with a local flavor or authentic appeal. Maybe I was to blame and forgot to tell him I'm a human garbage disposal and can chow on anything or maybe he thought we're just American! Either way, the process of tapas is to eat a few of the locale's dishes with a drink and move onto another location and do it all over again. That way you can enjoy the many choices and atmosphere throughout the city. I would give it another shot but will definitely make my own choices. This place has a "Cheers"-like feel. Typical tapas range from 2-2.5 EUs per dish.

Bodega Santa Cruz (aka: Las Columnas) is a popular spot in Sevilla for cheap tapas. This tapas bar was conveniently located next to our hotel, Hotel Casa 1800 Sevilla, so we had lunch here our first day in Sevilla. The tapas bar gets packed so be prepared to stand while you look for a table. The guys behind the counter don't speak much English, but were very patient and friendly. I managed to order several glasses of wine and several small plates of food in broken Spanish. Most of the tapas were only €2. My husband, sister, and I ordered the roasted pork, potatoes, and montaditos. The montaditos are small rolls that are topped, or 'mounted', with a variety of quality ingredients such as meat and cheese. If you are visiting Sevilla I highly recommend stopping by Bodega Santa Cruz for a montadito and a glass of wine.

This place is a must-do, if not only for the experience. It is located in the heart of the Santa Cruz area and be prepared for crowds and to eat standing up. We were fortunate enough to find a spot to sit for lunch, but were cramped in and this help us to interact with neighboring parties. You order and pick up at the counter. It had the "soup nazi" type feel as they are so busy and not knowing Spanish did not help as there are no English menus or pictures. There is so much good stuff so I just pointed to things that people had and they were up and eaten in short time. Their fried stuff was great and they have so much selection for a small tapas place it was incredible. There were people there from all over and although it can be touristy due to its location, it was also one of the best!

This place isn't winning any stars for presentation but they do get some for speed. Fastest tapas experience ever where we were in and out of the restaurant within 15 minutes (we were also starving and ate too quickly). The breaded eggplant with honey was amazing so definitely try that!

An hour after touching down in Sevilla, we walked down the cozy narrow streets in Barrio Sta Cruz and made the Las columnas bodega our first stop to grab some tapas after 20 hours of travel and airport transfers. We squeezed our way thorugh the crowd, grabbed a spot on the bar and immediately ordered cold glasses of Cruzcampo beer. This specific brand is the sister beer of Heineken and cannot be found outside of Spain (we tried looking for it online and at our local BevMo with no luck so we wanted to enjoy its overabundance in Sevilla). The bodega was packed with locals watching the 2011 Davis cup finals (Spain vs Argentina) and we joined in on cheering for Rafael Nadal who brought victory to Spain. All the tapas we have tried were really flavorful and catered towards the local's palette. No french fries with your tapas at this bodega! Everything was very affordable, about €2.00 - 3.00 per plate. For D and I, we share 5-6 tapas plates and 2 beers each for about €20! Sollomilo con tomate - pork in tomato sauce. Champiñones al ajillo - Mushrooms with olive oil and garlic. Alitas de pollo - Chicken wings with garlic and paprika. Gambas natural - Steamed shrimp served cold sprinkled with salt. Manchego - Spanish sheep cheese from Castilla La Mancha. Patatas alioli - Potatoes with garlic and olive oil. Pinchitos - Grilled kebabs with moorish seasoning. Cafe con leche - espresso with hot milk. One of the best coffee's we've ever had. Pan with jamon and queso - toasted bread with ham and cheese (best eaten drizzled with garlic infused olive oil) is usually eaten for breakfast with the cafe con leche. We had tapas here everyday that we were in Sevilla and we'll definitely miss the fun atmosphere and good food!

Located on the same street lining the Sevilla cathedral. We had a late lunch here after touring the Real Alcazar nearby. It is a traditional tapa bar where you order tapas at the bar. Tapas are very reasonably priced. The inside was really crowded- with tourists and locals alike. We got lucky and got the corner table. We talked to a middle aged couple from Madrid seated at the nearby table, and they recommended some dishes for us. Loved the patatas alinadas, Atun (Tuna) in tomato sauce, the spinach dish and the tortilla espanola

Skip all the touristy tapa bars. This is the place to go! There's a reason why this place is always packed! Our hostel was just around the corner from this place and every time we walked passed, we noticed it was always crowded. We even tried dining here once but because of the crowd, we walked else where. So on our last day in town, we walked over during mid afternoon close to "siesta" time when it was a bit slower. It's your typical walk up bar, order and grab a seat or stand at a table. We walked up and tried reading the spanish only chalk board menu. The older gentleman working at the bar was hilarious. He was loud, fun and full of energy! He barely spoke any english but enough to help us. I got a glass of red while the beau ordered some beer. For our tapas, we ordered the paella and croquette, then we asked our server to pick one of his choice for us and he got us the rabbit! All the tapas were €2! We had 2 drinks and 3 tapas all for €9! The paella was tasty, it was a seafood one but slightly salty, it comes with bread so soak it up! The croquette was good, comes with fries and picos (bread stix), the rabbit was surprisingly good...tastes just like chicken (of course) and comes with potatoes. It's a cash only place and if you are not a social person, don't come here because this place is loud, crowded and full of fun people!

First time in Seville and picked this place based on reviews from other folks. All I can say is that everyone is on the money: great atmosphere, friendly service, great Tapas and very quick service. My wife and I had a bunch of Tapas, most of which were around 2 Euros (they gave us some free) .. we had two glasses of wine and 2 beers .. all of a little under 20 Euros. P.S. We ate this stuff around 5:30 pm, walked 1.5 km to a Flamenco show (kinda needed to walk ) and it's almost 9 and I'm still full.

This is a great place to grab lunch if you're visiting the cathedral or alcazar palace. Locals eat here. The tapas are good and very affordable. Food: Shrimp - steamed. This is my favorite. The shrimp is fresh and sweet. Whisky pork - comes with a flat toasted bread Eggplant - tempera honey eggplant. This is a popular local dish. Fried sardines - very tasty served with potatoes chips. You can eat while head and bones and all. Very good snack. Glass of red wine. All for 18 euros.

Our breakfast place. Cafe con Leche is hot and strong. Great toast. Great people. We'll keep coming while we are in town. Looks like we may come for cerveza later too.

Between the two of us, we had about 4-5 tapas and 4 drinks... and it still only came out to 18 euros. Idk but I feel like this is how tapas should be. Haha. The staff have good recommendations, so trust them. They're totally efficient w the way they work and serve food, so don't be offended by their terse and efficient nature. Also, don't move around from the spot you start since they write down your bill in chalk in front of you. Lollll. Helps you keep good track of how much you're spending and eating. Great price and food. We've eaten at a lot of tapas places and this is probably the only one I'd heartily recommend.

Great value and taste at ~€2.5 per plate. I especially liked the cod fritter and pork cheek. Went at 5:30 pm and the place was already filled. Friendly service and has English menu

An excellent place to try many of Spain's famous dishes. We had 6 different tapas and they were all absolutely delicious. Lomo (w/an incredible sauce), Paella, Cocido de garbanzos (so good!), Garbanzos con espinaca Frituras de bacalao and Berenjenas con miel (a must have). It was very crowded but we got lucky with a table right outside and so we were able to enjoy these tapas over wine while people watching.
