    What a superb meal and show. The tapas were more than just a few small portions: they constituted a full meal. Come hungry! The music, singing and dancing were fantastuc. I cannot recommend this venue enough. The waiters, too, looked and acted so professionally and so efficiently.

    Fantastic night of entertainment. The flamenco was brilliant. The dinner was OK - they have a limited time to serve you before the show starts so that is to be expected.

  • Captivating flamenco show!

    The flamenco show was a new experience for us and we were captivated. I could not take my eyes off the performers. We loved the intimate venue and the fact that phones were not allowed- so the performance was not interrupted. I did not give 5 stars because our tapas was served so quickly, it felt like school dinners. One waiter tried to take my plate while I was still eating the food from it. I understand they want all the food served before the show but it felt too rushed. I wish we had just watched the flamenco show with a drink. It is still worth a visit!

    The 3 course meal was lovely, and each course was served promptly. There wasn't a long waiting time between courses, which was excellent. The menu is very traditionally Spanish, which adds to the cultural experience. You get one complimentary drink included, a full glass bottle of water and a sherry that awaits you as you take your seat. All serving staff were friendly and polite. The show itself was outstanding. It consisted of a guitar player, two singers, and three flamenco dancers. It is a very intimate setting , so all of the audience members were close to the stage to admire the show. Although it was a full house in an intimate setting, it did not feel claustrophobic. The dancers were fabulous, displaying all elements of flamenco. It was passionate, full of expressive movement, including intricate footwork, hip movements, arm gestures and hand movements. The technique differs between male and female dancers, with this shoe, the male dancer emphasised the heavier footwork and two female dancers showcased more sensual, fluid motions. This difference between male and female flamenco is show when all three dancers take to the stage, it was a spectacle to behold. Some dances had the use of castanets and shawls. Overall an amazing experience that I didn't want to end.

  • Outstanding! Brilliant performances and a delicious meal.

    The show was outstanding! The performers were passionate and Thor passion was infectious. The show whizzed by as we were captivated by the dancing and the singing. It was brilliant and the best flamenco we saw whilst in Spain. The dinner was delicious and the food was served quickly. The service was good and staff were friendly and welcoming.

    This was my first time to see flamenco in Seville. I wasn't sure whether to make Tablao or a theater, but I chose it. It was a packed place with about 50 people, and an elderly couple in the room were drinking sangria, which looked good, so we asked for the same thing, and the stage started. Guitars, two singers, two female dancers and a male dancer all took turns to perform their agonizing, snappy dances, and the venue was more than an hour into the show. I think it was a good choice in terms of scale and content. I recommend it.

  • Skip the food, the show is great

    Incredible show - the passion and talent of the singers, guitar player and dancers are undeniable. The show is a must watch. However, the food was pretty terrible. I would opt out of that. We ordered the shrimp and it was mushy and weirdly sandy. They offered to switch out our entrees but I was put off from eating anymore. I would suggest you opt out of the food but the non food tickets get sat an hour later so you end up getting seats farther away or off to the side with a less direct view. After the show we met a local foodie and flamenco enthusiast and she said with the tablaos that serve food either the food is bad or the flamenco is bad and never recommends the food at flamenco shows. She did say this place was known for great flamenco though. So I would recommend coming here but skip the food and know your seats won’t be quite as good.

    The show was fabulous. Small, intimate setting. We should have done the dinner part for seating closer to the stage. The performers were top notch.
