Taberna Salinas

Very delicious food! One of the few places in town with good vegetarian/vegan options. The grilled mushrooms and the fried eggplants were amazing! We tipped over a glass of wine and the waiters were quick to fix the situation, and they even poured us a new glass free of charge! 4 plates were plenty for 2 people. Great prices and great atmosphere, it’s even in the Michelin guide😎

Entering the century old restaurant felt like stepping back in time, with its nostalgic, old-school ambiance. The oxtail in gravy was delicious, but the fried prawns and fried cod fish were fairly average. The staff, however, were attentive and friendly.

Fantastic tapas restaurant. Lovely setting, very authentic, helpful staff and amazing food. The red wine was great and not expensive. Absolutely worth a visit.

What a fabulous meal we had! Thank you to James & Yoly from Spain Revealed for this fine recommendation. The fresh orange & cod salad > yum! The fried eggplant (aubergine) > delicious. And the oxtail stew > simply spectacular!! A 10/10 experience!! MoJo 🇨🇦

Stunning cozy venue with a wide traditional menu in multiple languages. Food is good value, fresh but not exceptional, generous portions (ideally each shared by 2 people), 2 plates are ok for solo travellers.

Amazing tasty food. Braised oxtail was rich in flavour and super tender. It was in a nice old decorated courtyard. They just do t k ow much English but you can find your way around

Very good restaurant/tapas - friendly service with historic atmosphere. Was pretty busy when we are arrived but we managed to geta table. Vermouth, Beer and Rioja all very good. They seem to specialise in a a Flute of Some special wine - my Spanish is way to limited to ask. I had almond/garlic/raisin soup - nice and Flamenquin also very nice 👌🏽

Such a great experience at this taberna… from the service to the food you will leave feeling extremely satisfied. The Rabo de Toro is a standout dish which must be tried and also the fried eggplant with honey!

We had dinner at this restaurant. We didn't have reservations and although at first the host was giving us a hard time to sit a group of 5 people despite having lots of tables open, but then he somehow was able to find us a table in one of the inside rooms. The food was good, especially the tortilla Española, or Spanish omelette, which has to be one of the best I've ever had. It was served hot (much better than eating cold as a tapa) with a soft, runny center that was perfection. We also had the flamenquín, which is made with rolled pork loin with ham covered with bread crumbs and deep fried, and the traditional tripe dish which is not a dish everyone would enjoy but it was very flavorful. We ended our meal with a dessert called tocino del cielo, an egg yolk and sugar dessert which was way too sweet and not something I'd order again.

Nice place with nice atmosphere. Ordered the Oxtail and it was good. Service might need improvement though. Make sure to make a reservation, as the place gets usually crowded for dinner service.

Nice atmosphere, good food Nice little taberna in Cordoba with local atmosphere despite the fact that many patrons are tourists in the old city. The best dish was spinach and garbanzos, but we also had a good cheese tart and chicken croquettes. Due to the portion size, we shared these dishes which worked out well in terms of variety. Service was good.

Just... Wow! Even for an "American palette!" I wish we had time to come back here again before we leave!

This place without doubt is one of the best tabernas is Cordoba and for some reason they are on Michelin Guide! The service is exceptional, the prices are below average and the quality/portion are higher than any taberna I've tried around the city, especially the Rabo de Toro is amazingly well elaborated and delicious. 100% recommended!

Really enjoyed our meal here! It was a bit of a hike from our hotel, but we managed OK. Though it is located in a not-so-touristy part of town, it's clear that this restaurant still gets a lot of foreign visitors. Since it's been in business since 1879 (!), I guess people figure it must be doing something right. We tried three local specialties: - Robo de toro, bull's tail, actually a really delicious and soft piece of meat served in a savory gravy. One of the favorite new dishes that we discovered in Spain. - Salt cod with orange. The saltiest pieces of fish that I have ever eaten. I don't mind a little salt in my food. Spain had a lot of food that was too salty for me. And that was BY FAR the saltiest food that we had in Spain. The orange segments helped to neutralize some of the saltiness, but since the dish was about 2/3 salty fish and 1/3 oranges, the ratio was too small to make this an enjoyable eating experience. If it had been 1/3 salty fish and 2/3 oranges, well... it would still have been tough to eat. I guess we're just not big fans of salt cod. But we tried. - Flamenquin - this is like the kind of food that you'd find at an American State Fair -- pork wrapped in ham and then deep fried. It was tasty but probably what you (or your cardiologist) would call healthy. After our meal, the restaurant ceremoniously presented us with a couple of glasses of sweet sherry (I believe) on the house. It was a nice gesture that I didn't see repeated at every table and I presume it was their way of rewarding our good faith effort to try three of the more adventurous dishes on the menu. The interior decor was very atmospheric and the waitstaff were professional. I would definitely go back if I ever find myself in Cordoba again. I hope they can stay in business for at least another 130 years!

The food was great, the wait time to be seated was less than 5 mins at around 3:30, which is when most people tend to eat. The food arrived very quickly and was at a very good price. (We had the spinach croquettes, tomato salad, a plate of beans with chorizo and morcilla, and a plate of swordfish. Delicious!

Quite unique design of the place. Staff is very attentive. Tried salmorejo for first time and it was great!

We went for some tapaz, and unbeknownst to us the kitchen was closing in 2 minutes. When we decided against ordering food due to the rush, the server was very rude. He snatched every menu while shaking his head. I don't like places when people are rude; and needless to say I left.

A local pointed us to this restaurant and thank goodness he did - everything was wonderful and the service was excellent. We had the braised oxtail and fried eggplant - soooo good!

I am not a big fan of Spanish dishes as they tend to be bland and just salty. I tried this restaurant with my wife and kid and as it has been our experience we get three types of food but we eat only one and the fries cause it comes with everything But this time we ended up eating everything not because it was super delicious but because they were good enough to eat. I ordered a pork dish with a green sauce (unfortunately I don't remember the name) there was even some saffron and the meat was nicely coocked. My picky eater 4 year old even tried some before complaint that it was too salty and can't have any more We also ordered spinach and chickpeas and it tasted like Indian variety without the curry which was still good but the problem was it was like having curry with no rice. It was too strong and creamy by it self to be served as a dish. It was missing the Persian rice on the side. It didn't even come with bread or as is the norm here with fries. I give this restaurant a 4/5 because of exceptionally good service, unusual clean bathroom and unusually OK food
