Casa Pepe Hillo — Restaurant in Seville

Once upon a time, nestled in the heart of the historic Casco Antiguo district of Sevilla, Spain, stood a charming little house known as Casa Pepe Hillo. It was a quaint, two-story home with a vibrant red door and a small balcony overlooking the bustling streets below.

The house belonged to the Hillo family, who had lived there for generations. Mr. and Mrs. Hillo had raised their three children, Pepe, Maria, and Antonio, within its walls. The house was filled with memories and love, and it was the center of the family's life.

Casa Pepe Hillo was not just a home, but also a symbol of the family's heritage. It was named after their great-great-grandfather, Pepe Hillo, a famous bullfighter who had once lived in the house. His legacy lived on through the family, and the house was a constant reminder of their proud heritage.

Casa Pepe Hillo was not just a private residence, but also a popular tourist attraction. The Hillo family opened its doors to visitors, offering guided tours of the house and sharing stories of their family history. The visitors were always in awe of the beautiful architecture and the rich history that the house held.

One day, a young woman named Carmen visited Casa Pepe Hillo. She was a student from the nearby university, studying history, and was fascinated by the house's story. As she explored the rooms and listened to the Hillo family's tales, she couldn't help but feel a connection to the house. She had always dreamed of living in a place with such a rich history and charm.

After the tour, Carmen approached Mrs. Hillo and expressed her interest in renting a room in the house. Mrs. Hillo was delighted and welcomed her with open arms. Carmen moved into the small room on the second floor, and soon, she became a part of the family.

As the months went by, Carmen and the Hillo family grew closer. She learned how to cook traditional Spanish dishes from Mrs. Hillo, and Mr. Hillo taught her how to dance the flamenco. Pepe, Maria, and Antonio became like siblings to her, and she felt like she had finally found a place to call home.

Casa Pepe Hillo became a hub of activity, with friends and family gathering there for meals and celebrations. The house was always filled with laughter and love, and the Hillo family was grateful for the new addition to their home.

Years went by, and Carmen graduated from university and got a job as a history professor. She moved out of Casa Pepe Hillo, but she remained close to the family. She would often visit and bring her students to the house to share its history with them.

Today, Casa Pepe Hillo still stands proudly on C. Adriano, 24 in Casco Antiguo. It continues to be a beloved home for the Hillo family and a cherished memory for Carmen. The house may have seen many changes over the years, but its walls still hold the stories and traditions of the Hillo family, keeping their legacy alive for...

Sadly the food here is amazing (except the octopus which is very over cooked and chewy). The highlight is the aubergine which is cooked to perfection and spiced amazingly.

This restaurant is complet let down by its service staff. I would love to single out a member of service who was polite and good, however it was all poor. As a foreigner visiting a beautiful country i felt that myself and my friends were treated with bias and contempt. I would honestly love to dine here with different staff, however they ruined their experience.

I would never normally write a review, however I sadly have to single out a few member of staff who initially refused entry to my friends (once I’d secured a table for four) and continued to be difficulty throughout our evening.

In summary the food was very good (excluding the octopus) however the service completely let this down and ruined any of the experience of the menu. I would never single out any individual I can say has not done their job, however I can say for the first time in my life that not one member of service made us feel welcome.

I have never had any service like this

For info. I was with 3 other males, all ordering Over €200 worth of food and wine, yet felt like we were dirt on the bottom...

HEALTH & SAFETY HAZARD: We really wanted to love this place, it looked intimate and buzzy. The food was rather average really, tasted shop bought and looked rather weird (not typical tapas). Towards the end we had the Flamenquin and upon getting half way through we realised the pork was completely raw. Not only is this a hazard to anyone, but im pregnant so raw meat (that shouldn’t be raw) is dangerous. We raised it with a member of staff who didn’t even apologise and when we said it was raw he just said “yes?”, as if he didn’t understand what a risk that is. He then said “looks like the chef didn’t cook it fully, I’ll get him to recook it”. At this point we said no, and were then ignored - no apologies from a manager, nothing. My partner approached the staff and again it was completely dismissed as if it was just a personal preference and not actually dangerous?! Ridiculous. This was removed from the bill and finally at the end after us telling them multiple times that they hadn’t apologised, only at that point did they apologise.

So disappointed. Poor food, poor service. Raw pork is a hazard and we should really report you to the food standards agency.

Absolutely avoid, or if you go,...
