Made our reservation via the Fork. Close walk to us (about 15 minutes). Were welcomed as soon as we got in. All the staff was nice but we especially appreciated VALENTINA - she was lovely! Ordered drinks with another person (tri-lingual gentleman with the beard - I didn't ask his name but he was the first person to serve me a proper glass of wine - other places have given me 1/4 of what he did so muchas gracias) but Valentina was the person that took care of us. We arrived around 19.30 and stayed until 22.00 - it was a fantastic evening!!!
We had the croquetas and tortilla for an appetizer then we all had beef for dinner. You can see the cut of meet you will order. I ordered the sirloin and it came with potatoes and grilled veggies. Everything was seasoned perfectly and I had the Overo red (yummy). Once we all had dinner we ordered dessert. There were two brownies ordered and I got the Coulant de chocolat and I was happy I did...think of a chocolate lava cake. Note it takes about 16 minutes to prepare but well worth the wait! I had a glass of the Ximenez Espinol while I waited and WOW it was a lovely dessert wine.
At the end of our meal we received a complimentary glass of digestive and it was enjoyed by all. I definitely recommend Bendala. We made a reservation and you might or might not have to but why risk it. Enjoy your experience and the lovely service. GRACIAS...
Read moreBendala Braseria is a gem of a dining experience that delivers both visually stunning dishes and well-executed flavors. The atmosphere is inviting and chic, with a relaxed outdoor setup perfect for enjoying a warm evening.
The zucchini noodle salad with burrata was refreshing and beautifully plated, with a balance of creamy cheese, crisp vegetables, and crunchy nuts topped with a light drizzle of balsamic glaze. The tuna was another standout—succulent and savory, with a flavorful onion and garlic reduction that complemented its richness. The grilled octopus was tender and paired with roasted vegetables and smooth aioli, creating a well-rounded and satisfying dish.
The tartare—likely tuna—was elevated by the scoop of avocado sorbet on top, providing a playful contrast of textures and temperatures. Patatas bravas were comforting and indulgent, with the perfect ratio of spicy tomato sauce to creamy aioli. The chicken salad was generous and hearty, topped with a vibrant green herb dressing and a touch of parmesan for depth.
Overall, Bendala impressed with its attention to detail, both in presentation and taste. Service was friendly and efficient. It’s a great spot for sharing plates and savoring modern Mediterranean cuisine in a stylish, yet laid-back setting. Highly...
Read moreTOURIST TRAP - beware
Don’t let the high reviews fool you, this is a through and through tourist trap with inflated prices and watered down food that disgraces Spanish cuisine
Uncaring, rude staff (telling us to order within 2 minutes of sitting down at 10:45pm, despite supposedly closing at 12, and saying otherwise we should leave with a smirk)
The tuna tartar came out as soon as we ordered it, showed that it was a premade, non fresh dish with a gimmick ‘wasabi’ ice cream that tasted like feet. Paella was mushy, filled with chipped mussel shells, I’ve genuinely had better from Uber eats in Australia
Every other tapas restaurant in Seville will provide you bread and olives for free. These scumbags take advantage of that standard, provide them to you, and then charge you 4 euros for it without mentioning you have to pay
Overpriced drinks, and a weird deserted vibe inside despite the outside being way overbooked.
Seriously, whether it’s a romantic date night, a family outing, or just a fun solo meal, this is not the...
