Great food, chill vibe, and waiters are super kind ! ( amazingly kind which is pretty rare in center of Paris hahahah ) I have been here 4 or 5 times this becomes my go-to-after-work-grab-a-verre place. P.S: it’s by law (kidding) that you have to order one sangria hahahha otherwise you wont enjoy the vibe.

We shared the calamari, paella, and a pitcher of sangria! So glad we looked into the reviews beforehand for suggestions on what to get, because all of it was truly delicious. It was a total of about 25 euros— very good value for a two person meal!

The tapas and service here were both amazing. We ended up going twice while in Paris. The prices are reasonable and, if you get 2-3 dishes per person, you certainly won’t leave hungry. We had the calamari, which was perfectly fried— tender with a crispy breading. The ham croquettes we’re more cheesy than expected. The chorizo was well seasoned and not overly fatty. The sauce on the Papas Braves was flavorful and addictive. Great wine selection. I would recommend this location over their sister restaurant, La Bodega 64. The atmosphere here is much more inviting.

This is an interesting spot with a variety of tapas and other small dishes. The food is good and the sangria was very good. The view of Saint Paul’s is great from the sidewalk seating. I did find the service is a bit lacking. I do think Casa San Pablo is worth a try if you are in the area.
