El Rinconcillo Sevilla Reviews
Food was only ok.
pork shoulder grilled and tough. Fish over cooked and dry. may be better to get the tapas and eat at the bar. Dinner was a bust :-(.
The oldest bar in Spain is a MUST visit if in Sevilla!
The oldest bar in Spain is a MUST visit if in Sevilla! While it's very hard to get a reservation, it's definitely worth it to eat on the ground floor tapas level. The service was great, the food was amazing, and the ambiance was super fun.
Wonderful experience / walking distance
Ate upstairs 2 nights ago. Wonderful atmosphere. Great food & service. The GAZPACHO!! wow. Spinach / chick peas. Octopus - large portion. Served with potato/ paprika. returned tonight for snack & drinks before heading back to our Air BNB
Unexpected disappointment
It was the 2nd time,there, but it was a bad experiance … The service was bad , We had the feeling , that they were waiting us to get out of there as soon as possible… They gave us the bill without asking ... and we haven't even finished eati
Outstanding
So, this is allegedly the oldest tapas Bain in Seville, if not Spain. Either way you have to go. The majority of the space is kept for tapas and drinks - your bill will be written on the bar in front of you! There is a restaurant to the rear where w
Paid twice for the same meal
A really great and atmospheric place - and reasonably priced too. My Partner and I had a great meal. Unfortunately, when we went to pay, the Waiter behind the bar said my Debit card wasn't working. I used an alternative credit card and this went
Great tapas bar
We had a delightful lunch here the day we arrived in Seville. The heat that day was unbearable and we just wanted some cold beer and tapas. This bar was recommended by the hotel. We were incredibly lucky to get in as it was really busy. We stood arou
Oldest Tapas restaurant in Seville/Spain. Good food and service. Exceptional house red wine. Both highly recommended.
Reputedly the oldest Tapas restaurant in Seville, if not Spain. Ground floor was very busy and a great atmosphere whereas upstairs, was somewhat austere and lacked atmosphere. Nevertheless we had a good evening with excellent service and good food. T
Disappointing
What a disappointment! The bar was busy and everyone stands to eat tapas but we had been on our feet sightseeing all day so we wanted to sit down. We were directed to a very small back room by the restaurant area, which is where we were seated, along

This is a great place to share some tapas! We traveled with friends and had tour standard fare. I always love Patatas Bravas and a cold beer and this place did not disappoint. Servers were helpful and spoke English and the setting and location were v

We went for the tapas bar and I was happy to be shown to a place immediately. The bartenders and staff were friendly. I loved seeing the jamon on the wall and all the different alcohol bottles. When we were there, a leg of jamon fell on the floor and
Great food and great service.
The main dishes are served in upstairs. We were arranged at a window table with a gorgeous view of church of Santa Catalina.
This is one of our favorite places in our favorite city.
Came back after nine years and nothing had changed. Same waiter. Same prices! Very busy. Good mix of locals and tourists.

Oldest bar in Seville so when we visited we definitely had to make it a point to eat here. We were a group of 5 and sadly we were not able to get a reservation so we settled for the standing section and it was still a fun experience for us. We came m
This is the oldest bar in Sevilla with 350 years old.
Insane. I came here one night to meet a friend. There was a line so had to wait a little before going in. Once inside its the real deal. We were in the bar area downstairs in a corner standing up. But we still got good service from our waiter. The pl

The restaurant was very crowded when we visited it on Fri lunch time. There was a queue of people waiting. All tables have been booked so we had tapas standing up. Nonetheless , it was a good experience. We had 5 simple tapas and a beer for around 21
Classic Sevillian bar
Visited five times over the years.Super professional mature staff. Excellent tapas and sherry. Always a pleasure to visit its very authentic. Don't change soon.
Wow!
We had the pleasure of dining at El Rinconcillo with our children. Food was absolutely amazing but what stuck with us most was the service, our waiter Rapha had to be the most courteous and best waiter we’ve ever had. His explanation of the menu, a
Overpriced
The atmosphere and decor of this restaurant is brilliant and feels very authentic. We ordered 4 plates, and 3/4 were very mediocre and overpriced - the 1 that was nice was just sliced chorizo. If the food was of a higher quality we wouldn’t have mi
Walked in to sit on 2nd floor.
As we did not want to be at bar area after a long day of walking in rhe city. Got a corner table on 2nd floor and we order some wine and sparkling water to start. Our tapas were : Stewed cuttle fish with home made mash potatoes (todays special) duc
Tapas fantástico!
Amazing! Oldest bar in Seville but prices so reasonable. Tapas exceptional and atmosphere wonderful. Pork cheeks were delicious as was the spinach and chick peas. 100% recommend.
Not the friendliest
We worked our way around a few bars in Sevilla and visually this is very nice but the 2 staff we had dealings with were far from friendly and welcoming. Discussing wine choices seemed to be an issue for them and you get the feeling that they think th
Disappointing is an understatement
Immediately I got an ‘off’ vibe when I stepped into this place. I agree with some of the other travellers who felt that the older waiters gave negative vibes. Perhaps it was just the waiter who served me, but I felt immediately that he did not wa

This place lives up to the hype! Please make time to either go there and stand at the bar for a drink and tapas or make a reservation (in advance) to sit and eat a meal. The tomato and cod was AMAZING, best croquettas I had in Seville, and the pesc
They're Codding us!
Although the ambience was good, and our waiter very pleasant, some of the meal was almost inedible (the cod was rubbery, suggesting reheating, so it wasn't eaten) and expensive (20euros for a small plate of shellfish). Well, I have eaten there now, s
Hmm. Frenetic
Hmm. This establishment is a very interesting and quirky place, with lots of history. I do think that the word 'frenetic' about sums it up, though. Although we enjoyed the liveliness of the place, l wish we hadn't eaten here and had just had a drink.
Wonderful
Stunning decor, ancient aluzeros, lively bar downstairs and white table cloth restaurant upstairs. We made reservations ( a must) and had dinner upstairs. Outstanding food, wine list . Stylish, efficient and friendly staff. Wonderful
Nor a tourist trap. Delivers authenticity!
As the oldest in the city, this tapas bar is on everybody's list, and so there are queues just before opening. We joined a short queue at 13:00 and were at the bar in 5 minutes. Busy, atmospheric, and authentic, this place delivers against all the &
400 years and it does the standards very well
Yes it's touristy but thee food is great , the staff are great and you'll find plenty ty of Spaniards eating here. Sit downstairs to stay in the heart of the action.
Went here as a recommendation from my host.
It was the last meal of our trip in Spain and we were so disappointed. We got the octopus...it was the worse thing I've ever tasted. The jamon was good..nothing else was memorable but you can find better for a much lower price. I will not be recommen

Servers had a good sense of humor and were happy to make suggestions on what to order. You really do feel the history of the restaurant. Food was very hearty and substantial. Loved the salad with seafood. Nice balance to the various meats.

Personally thought the food was very subpar, but also really haven't found anything in Seville that has been memorable in terms of food
This restaurant was recommended and we have no idea why.
We ordered the salad, cheese, spinach/chickpea dish, Cod loin (a supposed specialty), cod/tomato, and a vegetarian scramble. With the exception of the goat/sheep cheese - layer out carelessly on a white plate - the food was miserable. Flavorless, ove

I believe this place just runs on its name and status as the oldest tapas place and I found nothing of quality here . The food was subpar, the service was crap and we mostly went for the ambience and Seville Vibe but they jostled us in a corner upsta
I thought this place was ok.
the squid was really good. But there was a mixup on my order and i wasn't really happy about it. i wanted to sit in the dining room to have dinner but they wouldn't let me. they flat out said no. overated and over hyped being the oldest tapa
Unfortunately this place was a total let down.
. service was awful, not just slow but they clearly didn't care to take of us. It presents itself as a 4-5 star restaurant but they do not take care of you in that way. We sat at our table with no menus or even table water for at least 10 min, then
Well worth the queue.
This was one of the many highlights on a recent trip to Sevilla. Very authentic and although had to queue for a short while, once a spot at the bar became free we tucked in to some delicious Tapas and wine. Great fun place, wonderful atmosphere, lov
Delicious food and drink
We ordered beef sirloin and lamb chops for food and sangria for drink. All was amazing! Just one point: They don’t ask you how you would like your Steak! But if you go there, trust them cuz they know what they do! Also, servers don’t know English
Dinner in restaurant
Was disappointing. We didn't think the waiters were particularly friendly. We queued to get in although we had reserved a table but then were told to go upstairs to restaurant. It lacked atmosphere upstairs but we didn't have a choice. I had phoned
It’s not good, so much better elsewhere
The food was very average. Waiters are quite overbearing and condescending. It’s a historical place and i think they ride on that because they know people will come. I went to a newer tapas restaurant the previous night which was lightyears away in
Great service.
Authentic tapas style restaurant. Great food!Sevilla has been challenging in finding great authentic food as most spots seem to be a bit of a tourist trap. Reviews on Trip Advisor and Yelp haven't been great references. First spot in the city t
Connect with users posting reservations for El Rinconcillo Sevilla
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with El Rinconcillo Sevilla. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to El Rinconcillo Sevilla at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the El Rinconcillo Sevilla page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at El Rinconcillo Sevilla to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at El Rinconcillo Sevilla!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
