Abuela — Restaurant in Paris

Best Spanish in Paris. Must visit.

I don’t speak French and they don’t speak English much however, everything went so smooth from welcoming and ordering. I came with my husband. We ordered a lot as we were so hungry and everything was perfect.

We ordered : Jamon Iberico x 2 (it’s too good) , the green peppers 🫑, Prawn with Garlic oil 🦐 , Paella (So good), the razor clams (amazing). And their white wine (by glass) is amazing !!

You can show the pictures from what we order and told the owner he was so nice.

We love everything and we will come back every time in Paris.

Notes : the Restaurants is small , cozy , good vibe , reasonable price (unlike tourist area) , good quality of food. Many locals dine here. Great place for couple and they have under ground floor for bigger table for big group.

We stumbled upon Abuela while walking around Pigalle and decided to stop in for dinner. After a short wait at the entrance, we were seated and quickly served by a very kind and friendly lady. The service was in Spanish, which really added to the atmosphere and made it feel like a local spot straight out of Spain.

The food was delicious. The tapas were served one by one rather than all at once, which was a bit unexpected, but likely due to the small table size. The dishes were full of flavor and clearly made with care.

There was also live music that night, which gave the place a warm, lively vibe. Overall, highly recommend this place: great food, great ambiance, and good...

This is the place to be if you love Sangria while sharing small plates of tapas with friends and family. Everything we tasted was delicious. Our favourites were Gambas a la Plancha (grilled prawns in garlic sauce), and the Champinones Picantes (fried mushrooms with hot peppers, garlic and parsley). Ordering process is easy as you get given a paper menu (with English) you can just tick or mark on it what you want. Prices were respectable. Service from the owner was professional, attentive and courteous. We really enjoyed our tapas meal and atmosphere at one of the high tables facing the street. Highly recommend if you are looking for something other than French cuisine...
