We are looking for simple, family friendly restaurants or tapas bar. We might also go for a day trip to Cordoba.

I have a few suggestions from Maribel's Seville guide and the recent Tapas bar article on T&L, but I'd love some more updates. Thank you!

Letizia, we have a couple of recent reviews on slowtrav...

I really enjoyed the tapas at Modesto - we had some little clams that were really great and pimientos de Padron, I think. The outside dining area was packed and I think dinner would be good there too. It looks like they have a few other restaurants as well.

Modesto

In Cordoba, my mother and I ate at a GREAT middle eastern restaurant... if it is still there, and if you want something different, try Comedor Arabe Andalussi in Plaza Abades. They have no wine or beer here - only tea, unless something has changed.

I hope you will write some reviews when you get back!

Thank you Shannon
the Arabic Comedor sounds interesting. I have found several references to Modesto, so it must be surely worth a visit.

Block note and pen will be ready for reviews. I like to write them when I am still there!

We had a great lunch at habinata a Cuban influenced bar-restaurant. Can't remember what we ate, but thoroughly enjoyed both the food & the atmosphere.

Enjoy!

We really enjoyed tapas at Bar Las Teresas which was very popular and near where we watched flamenco one night ( don't miss it, my daughter loved it too!).

Maribel's guide has some great advice, but we were hungry after sight seeing one day, so stumbled on a place right across from the cathedral and fountain with red table cloths outside. We had two octogenarians with us and they could not walk another step, but I worried it would be yucky tourist food. It was great! Sometimes you get lucky,but I do not know the name.


DO go to Cordoba for the day, it is really easy to do, especially if you are staying in the Santa Cruz area which I highly recommend. We all loved the Mesquita and had a great lunch at El Caballo Rojo afterwards.

Seville is one of my favorite cities! Have fun!

Ah, thank you so much. While everybody talks about food in Barcelona, I could not find a lot about Seville.

I know, we'll also end up sitting at the first decent looking place with cranky hungry daughter.

That's why I never book anything, but I just love the planning even if we end up going somewhere completely else!

some suggestions, old and well tested are these
Cordoba
El Caballo Rojo, cardenal Herrero 28
La Taberna, Antonio Machado 24
for tapas, Zona Juderia at pepe el de la juderia,romero 1


Sevilla
Casa Robles, alvarez Quintero 58
La Albahaca, Pl Santa Cruz 12

tapas en Sevilla is sublime
