The 24 Best Restaurants In Valencia - Valencia - The Infatuation

"Rausell is where chefs go when they’re off duty, so you know it’s gonna be good. This family-run institution, open since the 1940s, has fed generations of Valencians with pristine sepionet, sautéed cigalas, and arguably the best patatas bravas in town. It’s in a busy part of the city that’s more practical than picturesque, but that hasn’t stopped it from becoming a seafood wonderland. José and Miguel Rausell run the kitchen with the kind of care that comes from decades of experience and deep ties to local suppliers—they work with seven fishmongers and over 100 small producers, and still make weekly runs to the Denia fish market for the freshest gamba roja. Slide up to the bar for a quick round of small plates or settle in for a proper feast of arroz meloso and endless wine—this is the spot for a long lunch that rolls right into the afternoon." - david neimanis

Lovely experience. My wife's birthday and a very nice meal it was too. Portions generous and food delicious. Discovered cremat too which we know know is a superb after dinner coffee made with rum. We asked for one after each of our remaining dinners in Valencia.

Your mom called and told me what the best restaurant in Valencia is. It’s called Rausell. You can look elsewhere. There are many great places throughout the city but none come close. The genius of Rausell is it encompasses all the great things under one roof. Patatas bravas? Top 10. Fabada? Legit. Tortilla? I’ve honestly never tried it cause there is so much more on the menu. Produce is everything. Come to the bar and just ask them to grill you the best seafood you’ve had, brought daily from Denia. They have daily specials too, meaning whatever was great at the market. In this case, mushrooms, grilled for a minute and drizzled with decadent olive oil and a pinch of salt. Their wine list is on point too. Sir at the bar for casual tapas or get a table in their dining room for privacy. The service is excellent, all quintessential Spanish waiters with one of the best attitudes in the whole peninsula. In case you have doubts, the ridiculously long line for their takeaway parlor next door will help you make the right choice. Reservations encouraged.

A completely wonderful dining experience. This is Taste of Valencia. Every dish seasoned to perfection. Every bite a heavenly experience. I cannot get over how amazing this place was. Valencian locals call it the BEST RESTAURANT in Valencia and I know why. Every dish will leave a beautiful memory in your mouth! Oriana - our Venezuelan waitress was so helpful and definitely this is the place to dine when you come to. Valencia. It is Five Star Worthy!

had lunch at Rausell. Excellent tapas, patatas bravas were perfect. Also the turbot was perfectly cooked. Wine list is also very good. Atmosphere very cozy, service also very nice. Totally recommend this place.

This is a popular tapas bar where locals rather than tourists turned up. If you don’t have the language, it may be a bit of a struggle as the staff & all the menus are in Spanish. Food however, is really good if you are able to decipher what they are. Prices is not cheap, similar to all the more expensive tapas bars around. For atmosphere, it’s really great in front. The back room is much less so. I particularly like their oysters & baby squids which I think are superb.

A MUST in Valencia. I was hesitant to go because it look upscale and too popular but I am glad we decided to go and found a space by the bar (BOOK IN ADVANCE!). We loved everything in this place. The patatas bravas are a must. We also ordered mushrooms which were in season, clams, navajas and a carrot cake. Everything is homemade and fresh. You see how the cook is making most of the stuff in front of you and the jamón gets cut to perfection. They have a side place where they sell takeaway food they make which is great if you are in a rush or if you can’t get a spot in the restaurant. The service is extraordinary, everyone is professional and friendly. You will find both tourists and local people and it’s amazing they have kept it authentic considering its popularity

Cozy and comfortable restaurant with local market food. We tried their famous patatas bravas and didn’t disappoint. Calamares, gambas al ajillo and parrillada de verduras were also delicious, as so was the meat. In this case we tried the entrecot. Overall the price is a bit expensive but worth for special occasions. The deserts are also homemade and delicious. You also should try the cremaet

Classic Valencian restaurant, an icon of the city and a well known spot for locals. Excellent quality when it comes to sea food (their specialty). Forget fusion cuisine and modern artifacts, this is the real deal! Very professional service. Pricey but worth it.
