What LisaL likes about El De Tapas:
As always, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We weren't happy with the initial table we were assigned, but they quickly moved us to a quieter area without any hassle. The food quality was just as great as we remembered—this is definitely our favorite restaurant in the old town. View all feedback. What o doesn't like about El De Tapas:
The food was mediocre, each dish lacked something. The only thing I loved was the cheesecake which was amazing, maybe one of the best I've ever had. Drinks where amazing also. Apart from the Sangria it tasted like it came out of a packet. Reasonably priced View all feedback.
