La Casa de las Paellas — Restaurant in La Oliva

UPD 2:

Seriously? Everything you are able is blaming your customers for wanting to spend less money? What a wise way to do business, Xd.

I told the waiter that we want to share paella, he didn't inform us. It's the waitress's job TO COMMUNICATE. Your menu has usability issues. Instead of blaming someone, please, be mature and fix the price to 26 euro and stop lying to your customers. Or buy small pans.

I asked your waiter for SANGRIA. I never even heard about tinto de verano. So I have no idea what your waiter brought us, but it was awful. And once again, please stop lying.

That evening, you didn't serve your customers with great effort. Two men were sitting at the next table, the kitchen lost their order. Those guys came right after us, and the kitchen informed them that the order is lost when we were finishing our sour paella. Also, garlic shrimps didn't taste good.

Actually, I was feeling bad for writing this review at the beginning. However, now I see that it's totally deserved. The best way to treat this situation was to acknowledge the mistake and say "We are sorry that you didn't enjoy the food. We will do our best to ensure the highest quality in the future". Instead, you are lying and blaming me in every response, it's not okay and extremely immature.

UPD to the restaurant’s reply: We ordered paella, I told the waiter that we want to share it for two people. The waiter told me that, anyway, you serve it for two people only. When the bill came out, I was surprised that paella was counted for two times. So yes, the price on the menu was 13 euros, but you lie to your customers and make them pay 26 instead! And what do you mean there is no sangria in your menu?! I just made screenshot. Your sangria was made with poor wine, lemons only and a lot of water. Instead of blaming your customers, learn to work with the feedback. Mine feedback was fair and detailed.

I visited your restaurant. Check the history, 13.12: Garlic shrimps(2), paella (2) and sangria. We were sitting outside.

Extremely disappointing. Paella was sour. If you serve paella for 2 people only, inform your guests from the very beginning and put correct price in the many. We paid 26€ for the worst paella in my life. Additionally, I felt like waitress just wanted to get more money from us. Also, sangria had too much water. They serve it with lemon only. Definitely, sangria is overpriced. I don’t recommend it Tables...

After reading pretty much all the reviews, my girlfriend and I decided this place sounded lovely. So since we are staying nearby I popped in and booked a table for 19:30 which was easy enough and was a good idea as it was busy.

Excited and ready for a lovely night we arrived and where shown are seats. I understand it was busy but it took a silly amount of time for them to even remember we where there. Eventually are order was taken, a bottle of Rose the Tapas to start followed by a rump steak and fried squid.

The tapas and the wine where lovely and the restaurant itself is very cosy and quaint. I don't know if its because the waitress was busy or in a bad mood but she really didn't take and time with us, ever dish was just thrown on the table for us to figure out and she probly uttered four words in total.

When we recieved are mains they looked good and we both where hungry. Unfortunately the fried squid was chewy and very badly cooked from frozen which was very surprising as the tapas squid was fine.

The rump was undercooked which I probly would have let go if my girlfriend's food was alright and the service was well service....

Overall this is a great little cosy place but for some reason it's busy and I have no idea why I would not recommend eating here as 100 meters away are some of the best restaurants...

We visited this restaurant shortly after it opened at 18:30. While the interior design is interesting, it’s far from cozy. The overpowering smell of cheap cleaning chemicals inside made it impossible to stay, so we opted for outdoor seating.

The service was fine—just the basics of taking orders and delivering food, nothing more. We started with nachos and guacamole, which, at nearly €12, felt overpriced. The portion was small, with plain, store-bought nachos and a cup of guacamole. That said, the guacamole itself was fresh and flavorful.

For mains, we had seafood paella for two, which was tasty. We also tried the salmon, which was well-prepared, but the side salad was disappointing—just plain lettuce and tomato without any dressing or seasoning.

Overall, while the food was decent, the experience didn’t justify the price. Between the unpleasant smell inside and the noisy environment outside, the atmosphere was lacking. If they improve the ambiance and offer better value for money, it could be a much more...
