I have been to this place several times and its a nice place to hang out, catch up with friends, meet people. I like the layout of the place, great ambiance and I absolutely love the music here. It has an upscale feel so if you want to go a little fancy Id highly recommend Cafe Sevilla of Long Beach.

Exactly what youd expect. Amazing delicious yet healthy food. Cafe Sevilla of Long Beach curry was out of this world! Also, get the Cafe Sevilla of Long Beach cooler, its an amazing ginger lemon beer cocktail.

Awesome spot for a tapas brunch with friends! If you have a big group, as to be sat outside- its a great outdoor space.I also recommend hitting up the unlimited sangrias and their truffle Mac and cheese!

We had a 5 star experience here at Cafe Sevilla! Excellent food and the show was spectacular! Chose this as the spot to celebrate the hubbys (belated) birthday and it did not disappoint! :)Our server was great and very attentive throughout the show. The food was absolutely succulent! I ordered the vegetarian paella and hubby ordered the meat paella. Sangria was yummy!We were lucky and found parking in the open lot next door. I believe it was $8 to park there for the day.Show was extremely entertaining and filled with lots of music, dancing and performances!Overall, a time very well spent at Cafe Sevilla. Highly recommend. Worth it!

Very surprised by this place. Saw the $55 picnic for 2 deal and on a whim ordered it. Everything was delicious. I will definitely be ordering from here again. Especially since the picnic deal changes weekly.

This restaurant is my favored. I go to plenty of restaurants but to this one I constantly return again and again. The team is very friendly and the cooking they serve is so tasty. I never decline to have a nice dinner in this place. I recommend this place with pleasure.

Such a fun time! Perfect place for family. Great show. The singing is so good, the dancing is amazing! Very interactive too! And they have an amazing belly dancer too. Paella was good! And they are very accommodating too. We brought our own bottles of wine and birthday cake too!

It was as if I was back in Spain. The interior is very intriguing and has a lot of details. We had the black rice paella. It was an experience to eat this meal, paired with an Albariño wine. Very romantic and great service. It set the tone for a great night out!

Review №20

I really like tapas, but the food here went way beyond my expectations. Every dish we ordered (croquetas, gambas, tortilla espanola, cheese and cured meat, and churros) was tasteful. They ask in advance if the reservation is for a special occasion, and they make sure that your dining experience is special.

Review №21

Id say food was good. Apps were better then mail course. Paella did not have enough meat. Pitcher of sangria was good. Gave them 3 stars because calimari was overcooked and prices are way to high for what you get.

Review №22

Not very good paella. A bland adventure and dining. Some flavors with spice might be nice everything tastes kind of chlorine-ish probably the worst paella ever. Wont return slow service very disappointed decor is very nice though. Might be because of covid who knows but I dont get it

Enjoyed this location, after missing the one in Riverside we had enjoyed so many years. This one was worth the drive, the staff were friendly, the ambience inviting... And we got a free anniversary dessert. Great experience!

My waitress was excellent. I ordered the special for the day, Lamb. The bowl was full of potatoes and two tiny pieces of lamb, just terrible. I did say something and was given a large brochetas of lamb on the house, it was over cooked and charged. I think it would have been excellent if it had come med-rare as ordered. The side dish of vegetables was excellent. I would go back again and stick to the Tapas.

Always a tasty experience every time I go. Good, fresh food, very reasonably priced. Never got a bad wine there. Pleasant staff, pleasant atmosphere I dont have a negative comment to add! You just have to go and check it out.

Flamenco show was really good. I love the fact that they have a full flamenco group- singer included. Belly dancer was amazing! Pricing is misleading though. Lots of taxes and surcharges will be added to the bill- but I understand, running a restaurant with a full show is expensive. So just be aware of that. Expect to pay more then what is advertised.

Review №31

Nice ambience with live music in evenings. A great place to go to hang out. The food, although over-priced, was not too special. They have the empanadas which are baked rather than fried which were decent.

Wonderful tapas and the supreme sangria was awesome! Rustic decor and ambiance. They do some live music/spoken word/DJ entertainment so be aware. Outdoor seating also available. We will be back to try the paella!

I was coming here to enjoy tapas and flamenco guitar for over 10 years. The premises are small, and you can observe musicians right next to you. Authentic spanish dishes are served along with sangria. Salsa dancing is a must :-)

Go here. A little pricey (but normal on Pine Ave), but incredibly delicious food that you don’t see every day. My first paella and it was pretty incredible. Additional bread served with a garlic aioli and tomato sauce. Classic Sangria was also great. Great and friendly service!

Now lets talk food ..... the quality is top notch and the taste is melt in your mouth AMAZING! For appetizers we had the Olive Bread (a must have) and calamari (the best I have ever had), YUMMY! Then for dinner we had Paella and the boneless short ribs (melt in your mouth) and both were EXCELLENT!. If you are in Long Beach I highly suggest you check out Sevillas, it is the BEST restaurant in town!

If youre looking for a good spanish place, go to Cafe Sevilla. Delicious food, perfect ambience, great service... they got it all covered. Park at the structure behind the resto which is fixed $6 all day or at the public parking right by the resto next to Cafe Sevilla as shown in the pic.

Hoooooooly wow!!!! If you want to give your palette a treat, eat at Cafe Sevilla. Flavor explosions with every dish. The papusas are drool worthy. We have been here more than a couple of times and no matter what dish we get, is simply amazing. The true taste of Spain right around the corner.

Room upstairs with dinner and show was good. Come on, have you ever seen a bad flamenco performance? Ok pallela, sangria, excellent performers. One beef I had was how freezing cold it was in there, maybe for the performers. But even with the jacket, it was uncomfortable.

Very disappointed in my visit on Father’s Day. Most of the food was not good. The live music was semi live with a recording playing in the back!! Payed almost $200 for food that wasn’t that great. EndUp getting sick and throwing up that night!

Review №62

Our first visit to Cafe Sevilla was amazing! The flight of sangrias was the perfect way to start the meal. The GAMBAS AL AJILLO was delicious, I recommend ordering the olive bread to accompany this dish. The bread is perfect, a light crispy crust and soft and tasty inside, it was seriously some of the best bread I have ever had and dipping it in the shrimp gambas sauce made it even better! The CROQUETA DE QUESO were so freaking tasty as was the GARLIC MANCHEGO MASHED POTATOES! For desert they offered a desert trio for $19, we went with FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE, ANDALUSIAN APPLE TART and Churros.There was a short wait for tables so we sat at the bar and were rewarded with excellent service!So for a quick recap the food was excellent as was the service and the overall ambiance was welcoming and comfortable. We will definitely be visiting Cafe Sevilla very soon!

First off, I want to say this place is wonderful. The lighting and the atmosphere is beautiful. Wonderful wall decorations and awesome round bar with a bull flying in decoration, lots wall seating with romantic candles with a mirror ceiling, the staff is super friendly and keeps tables and areas super clean. The music is great la raza with modern mixed in. Awesome DJ playing all your favorites (I dont know much about this music but Im partner does and kept asking me if I knew the song), great live singer and band. Good dance floor were everyone is getting down and so good.So youre asking, why are you giving this place one star? The manager is horrible and treats his customers and staff horribly. My waitress was so awesome, helped me pick out food (which is, had the ahi tuna) and gave me advice on what to pick for drinks ($15 flights of hand crafted sangria) and communicated to me about how the manager was fixing the credit card system because it was down. My partner and I waited maybe 15-20 minutes, I went to talk to him. He yelled at me, the other staff explained to me theres no point in trying to talk to him.The place is great, the staff are great, the music is great, but the manager is shady. I feel bad for the employees because they are great. This one star isnt for shutting down the business but maybe improving the livelihood of the people that make that place great.If the manager was not so crazy and rude, I would of given it five stars.

Was there for a party. Food was really good. Vegetable paella was pretty good but was missing socarrat. So it was more just rice with vegetables in paella pan. Empanadas were yummy, chicken skewers were nice and moist. Shrimp was nicely done and not overcooked but a little to heavy with garlic and I love garlic.

Review №78

Well it was good to try, all in all it was good. Good flavors but I needed the habanero hot sauce to make it spicy. This is traditional here so I didnt expect them to have any bold flavors. I think for me I need more spices or more acid. I was missing something but again this is my pallet and they served great dishes here. Try it out and be your own judge.

Went there on Christmas eve....they werent packed and the food was decent. If you have never eaten there and its you first time...then pop your cherry with the 5 course dinner for 2.That will give you a wide range of things to try. Your choices are all pretty good. However I highly recommend the following:Braised short rib flatbreadBrochetas (any of them doesnt matter)CevicheThis place is a major go!

Review №82

So Ive been going to new places for lunch or dinner and this place has a very nice vibe. Can definitely be a date place. My first time eating Spanish food very good food. I think my waitress was slow at first because it took a few minutes from the time they sat us down to the time the waitress showed up. Over all good experience. They have musicians playing which makes it a bit more alive. This place is also a night club Thursday nights and its actually a very well known club in long beach.

Review №83

Great experience here and an outstanding menu. Place turns into a night club late night. Sat at the bar and went tapas wild.Albondigas meatballs were flavorful and moist.Ceviche trio were OK. The differences in preparation were ranged from avocado mango to a green apple.Patatas Bravas spicey potatos but good.Datiles relleno bacon, blue cheese and dates.Highlight: the tender lamb asado which was cooked to a juicy medium deliciously minted and seasoned.

Service was outstanding, drinks are unique, and food is decent. Im a little underwhelmed at the food because Ive traveled to Spain, but if your pallet hasnt been tainted with real cuizine from Spain, then youll enjoy the meal. #chasomwashere Twitter:ChasomRad Instagram:ChasomRad

5 stars for the atmosphere, but 4 stars bc the PAELLA Valenciana did not live up to the hype. It was “fishy” in a bad way and wet. We were a party of 9 and we can’t say we loved it. Their chicken brocheta was absolutely delicious and their olive bread was to die for. Their empanadas were okay. I enjoy their olive bread the most. Beautiful and romantic setting very medieval with a touch of modern

Review №95

Food is good, menu has decent variety, drinks are good, if overpriced. Its the painfully slow, non-responsive service that makes it 3 instead of 4 or 5 stars. The servers themselves are nice and professional, but 30 minutes to place a drink order another 20 to get the drinks and place the dinner order. Then about 30 more to get our entrees. We had to hunt for our server to request the check.Then theres the 4% surcharge that makes you think its for the servers tip, but its not. Either price it into the menu so we know how much an item costs or leave it out. Providing decent wages and benefits should be the standard.

Nice Tapas disco-bar in a strategic position.It is located next to various clubs and restaurant in a zone very animated especially on Saturday night.Food is very good as well as the service and prices proportioned to the overall quality.During dinner time some group plays Latin/Gitan music. On Saturday night fter 11.00 PM the restaurant turns into a disco club with Latin repertoire.

We had a very knowledgeable, sweet, charismatic and respectful waitress that gave us the perfect Spanish experience, without actually traveling to Spain! Our waitress lived there for a few years, so her food and drinks recommendations were amazing! Definitely going back and telling all my friends!
