A Gorgeous Spanish‑Style Bistro — Mama Delia 🏺

Mama Delia is part of the Bonhomme Hospitality Group (which also includes Beatnik and Porto). While Beatnik leans trendy and Porto is fine‑dining, Mama Delia feels like a heartfelt letter from the chef to his mother — warm, personal, and deeply flavorful. Every dish I’ve tried here has been delicious — never a miss. 🥓 Must‑try: Iberico Ham Served paper‑thin with freshly made tomato bread — simple and perfect. 🍚 Squid Ink Paella (Arroz Negro) Loaded with seafood and crowned with a huge prawn. Comes with a creamy avocado yogurt sauce to mix in — I order this every time! The server always reminds you to scrape the crispy socarrat from the pan — I suspect they just don’t want to scrub the pot later 😹.
