La Salsa Tapas Bar Restaurant - Hanoi

The food here is amazing that I went to lunch. The place was empty, but I had the lunch offer at Paella, Salat and a tea or coffee for approx. 150k. I had the black paella and it was nice.

Try chicken Paella, the Spanish rice dish, that is the Catalan style. The staff is friendly and the bathroom is very clean.

Paella is very nice! Squid Tinte Paella is also very good taste. House made Sangria is easy to drink and delicious. You should try when you visit here!

We visited La Salsa for dinner yesterday. Firstly, the restaurant is upstairs, the kitchen and washroom (at the bottom of the stairs) is on the ground floor. The restaurant is cosy, with black red checked tablecloths, a chalk board with the tapas menu and framed Spanish-style art. It has an old school kind of Spanish restaurant vibe which makes sense having been established since 1999. Everyone at the restaurant is very friendly and professional. I was expecting more vegetarian dishes as I’ve been to many tapas restaurants and never struggled to find options. We decided to order patatas bravas, onion rings, meatballs (for my boyfriend) and a vegetable paella. It would be nice to see a few more inspiring vegetable based small plates- how about cheese croquettes as well as ham, a white bean tomato stew or grilled aubergine? We enjoyed our smooth bottle of Spanish red wine. Would have loved the bread to come with a small bowl of olive oil/balsamic. We asked but the waiter didn’t understand our request. Altogether it was pleasant but not amongst our favourites in Hanoi.

Food is good, but not really the best (as Spanish I was hoping a better croquetas). Good price for tapas but small rations. The place is good, but need improve the relation between quality, quantity price. Good staff and nice place
