I used this Restaurant 3 nights in a row, the 24th-25th-26th of August, the food is very good and reasonably priced, i would recommend this restaurant but one thing that annoyed me was that on the Monday night i had two spirit drinks and 1 coca cola zero, i was charged 6 euro for the coca cola zero, when i questioned the waitress i was told yes that is the price- surely it is not 6 euro for 1 coca cola???

The City of Sevilla has dozens of excellent restaurants, Mechela Restaurante is definitely not one of them.After reading multiple reviews on this site we were confident we were going to have an excellent dining experience.One reviewer even claimed Mechelaâs was a Michelin calibre restaurant.In truth, it is far, far from it, in fact, after 8 days in Sevilla we would say our dining experience at this restaurant was by far the worst of our visit.For our dinner we ordered two starters, the Salmon Plato (Salmon Tartar) and the Bouqueron Marinado (Anchovy Salad).For our main courses we ordered Arroz Negro Plato (Black Seafood Rice) and Carrillera (Brazed Pork Cheeks).After selecting our wine the server brought us the Pan (Bread) and Picos (Olives). This was our first hint the restaurant may have been over-rated.The olives were completely dry and there was not even a hint of brine in the bowl.The second hint was when our waitress brought us our wine glasses and one of the glasses was filthy.I will touch on each of our menu selections;The Salmon Tartar was extremely bland and no real flavour, it came with diced apple and cucumber. It was garnished with a sprig of mint for some unclear reason.Ultimately, when you order a salmon dish, the star of the plate should not be the cucumber, but it definitely was in this case.The second starter was the anchovy salad which was also garnished with a large sprig of mint. The salad was layered with mango, avocado, nectarines, kiwis and two fresh cherries.The avocado was an unpalatable dark brownish color. Some aspects of this dish were okay but the overall impression was two misses at this point.The next dish served was the black seafood rice.This dish consisted of a large portion of black rice adorned with one prawn, one piece of fried calamari and one tiny oyster. There was some indiscernible pieces of seafood in the dish but nowhere near what you might expect for 8.50 euros.On the plus side, I would say the rice had good flavour but again, when you order a seafood dish, the rice should not be the star on the plate.Our final dish was the pork cheeks.The dish was served with two large sprigs of rosemary that were clearly not brazed in the pan with the pork and added nothing to the dish in terms of flavour. This dish also lacked flavour and concerned us because it seemed the pork may have been undercooked.Overall, this restaurant was extremely disappointing.It seems the proprietor is more interested in the bottom line then providing a good dining experience that offers good value for your dollar.Do not believe the positive reviews. As we pondered our fate, my wife made an interesting observation...there were NO local people in the dining room, I think thats telling.The dining room was full of tourists like us who read Trip Advisor to help us with our dining selections.Iâm writing this to help you with yours.As an option, you might consider going to Az Zait - this actually is a Michelin recommended restaurant and was the best dining experience weâve had in Sevilla.del mensajeDear customer, we're sorry your experience has been so unsatisfactory. We don't know if you are motivated by the high expectations you had created by yourself. On the other hand we would like to clarify some aspects about your comments.We offer a traditional cuisine elaborated daily with fresh products.In our menu we have seafood rice which is what you chose, therefore, it is reasonable, that the main ingredient is rice.It advises other users not to create positive opinions. We accept both favourable and unfavourable opinions, but it is not acceptable to take away the credibility of 1,641 opinions over 1.811. Is your opinion more credible than that of other users? We accept that you didn´t like our food but accept the opinión of other users based on their experience. You recommend another restaurant "friend" of the city who work hard as we do. You can check that it has recent unfavorable opinions. Are these more or less credible? Surely they would appreciate it if you would publish a good opinion about them or about the other restaurants you have visited. Finally, you add that our restaurant was full of foreigners. I inform you that in Mechela Bailén 65-70% of customers are local people and in Mechela Arenal are 95%. Perhaps, because of the time of the year in which we are, that we usually go the weekend to the beaches or on holidays, you found mostly foreign public. These foreign clients, like you, are just as appreciated to us as the local people..Thank you for your time. Greetings.

We had such a lovely meal here. The food was extremely good, especially the creative and delicious salmon carpaccio with mango. The wines were interesting, the atmosphere was buzzy, and our waiter John was brilliant. His friendliness and suggestions with the food and wine made our evening!

We had a mixed experience here. Some of the food was excellent- particularly the lobster on rice, the lamb chops and the oxtail tagine. Some of it - like the pulpo tapas was OK, while the crispy big prawn was a disappointment, a not particularly succulent prawn swimming in what tasted like a sea of sweet almond cream, accompanied by grapes. (Fruit pops up a bit on the menu as an accompaniment, not always to good effect-the lamb chops weren't improved by the sliced strawberries). There appeared to be only two wait staff for a full restaurant, and service was consequently pretty shambolic. Perhaps we were there on a night they were short handed. We were served a dish we hadn't ordered, and I had to leave my seat to order a glass of wine. (If you are seated behind the wooden screen near the front of the restaurant you become more or less invisible to the wait staff).While there is undoubtedly some nice food being done here overall I preferred our meal at El Pasaje Santa Maria La Blanca which was substantially cheaper.

This is a very unassuming little place close to 'Las Setas' and entirely lacking in glamour. It has a row of tables outside in a sort of pedestrian section between two buildings and a small interior. The menu is fairly small, with nothing above E12. It contains the usual selection of tapas, and an additional selection of raciones (larger plates) which, to put it plainly, were each and every one of them out of this world. We simply could not get enough of what this tiny kitchen produced. Each dish a masterpiece in its own right, with most interesting and delightful textures and favours - certainly the best I had had over a week's sojourn in Sevilla. What stood out in particular was a plate of battered artichokes, a pork roast and an olive green seafood risotto, containing a sort of clam, which had a flavour I had never tasted nor will again! Superb in every respect, and excellent service. Lovely energy - and frequented mostly by locals and families. Highly recommended.

We were staying nearby and this was a delicious last night out in Seville. Very friendly service tolerating our trial of Spanish patiently. Our waiter politely explained the menu and our initial dubious wine choice...The croquettes were so delicious I canât remember what else we ate but it was all great.

This place is great!We had the seafood trio (mussels, clams and prawns); the entrecôte steak and a side of paella. All three dishes were superb. Food was served with good wine and bread. The service was great. Highly recommend- make sure to book though as they were turning people away.
