Bottom Line: I mean, let’s face it: we would not have discovered this absolutely phenomenal place without the help of an au courant, totally hip and outrageously fun Delhi-born colleague to guide us.  Thanks SP!! Yes, it is Spanish food, which required a temporary departure from our all Indian-all the time rule, but to hell with rules.  We are on vacation.  This place has it all – amazing bartender, service, food, and atmosphere (breezy, candlelit, peaceful garden hideaway).   See pics and review.

tartuffo

  • Sea scallops with cauliflower mousse – simple, not overwrought, though the foam was more distracting than value added
  • Foie gras – no surprises, no disappointment
  • Fattouche – more like a garden salad with cheese, sun dried tomatoes and crispy pita chips, but still delicious
  • Mixed grill skewers – lovely, really good
  • Valencia Paella – mmmmmmmm  - seafoody, porky, tomato-y, spicy, perfectly cooked
  • Aubergine – great presentation AND tasty
  • Tartuffo – chocolate cake with mint ice cream dipped in dark chocolate – moist cake, refreshingly light ice cream, but chocolate dipped coating something akin to DQ dipped cone. 
  • DO NOT overlook the Sangria.  This experience plus Lodhi Garden Restaurant (another SP recommendation!) led us to conclude that Indians have mastered Sangria.  Slurp.
  • WE LOVE SEVILLA!!!
