Cafe Andaluz in Aberdeen City

I just wish I lived nearer to you, I would,d be there every week.

Just wow. I have been a few times in Aberdeen and Edinburgh, and it always delivers fresh, tasty food with great service. Not be the last visit!

Surprisingly good, with excellent service

Great place for meeting up with friends, service is always great, food tasty and sangria devine! Its always busy so recommend booking before hand.

Food was bad and overpriced. Drinks were also bad and were inconsistent with our same drinks tasting incredibly different. Would not recommend.

Had a lovely lunch here with my son and my two gorgeous granddaughters. The staff were fun and attentive, and the food was delicious

A really good selection of well priced dishes, lots of variety for every type of food preference. Helpful and friendly staff.

Great lunch on Saturday.. Great friendly service, too, from our waitress. I didn't get her name but had long red hair! We will definitely be returning.

It was wonderful Food was great and the staff were nice too

Was served by Nye - 10/10 service 6/10 bottle opening

Yummy food and drinks, great choices. Friendly, helpful staff. Pleasant surroundings

Lovely meal! Order 3-4 dishes per person for a satisfying meal but not stuffed. Good flavours and lots of choice for all different appetites.

Lovely food. Quick service. It was quiet for a Friday evening.

Can't say I've had better Spanish food than this in the UK but definitely not to my taste. Everything was either bland or tasted strange and frozen. We had an assortment of tapas, including gambas pil pil and tortilla. The Catalan bread is terrible. What saves this place is the cool decor and the awesome staff.

Nice staff, good service, good food, fast

Great tapas, friendly staff, and easily the best margarita I've had in the UK. All the food was exquisite, and we enjoyed our meal very much.

Great atmosphere, lovely friendly staff and fabulous food. Thanks to Paulina for another great evening at Cafe Andaluz! 😊

Excellent cuisine, extraordinary service. Thanks to Olga and Celia / a choice of 3 different tapas for £18 + a dessert £5 It's good and not too expensive.. thank you Olga and Celia...you are wonderful! You are very social girls and we had got all we need.... warm atmosphere, thanks to them. Great cooking, great service.. Nice moment 10/5

Very pleasant kindness and goodwill during a tasting. An unforgettable “Arbeenois” lunch. Olga, beautiful person, 200% invested in her customers. Congratulations also to Célia ☀️🌞

Literally. The best most fresh food- just delicious

The food is always delicious and the service is professional and polite but not over the top friendly. The atmosphere is also very nice and relaxing. Highly recommended

Fantastic range of tapas dishes with plenty vegetarian and pescatarian options. Good coffee. Pleasant staff and nice relaxed atmosphere.

Very good food, great staff and service, fast service, will go back

Fabulous visit to Cafe Andaluz for a late lunch/early dinner with a group of friends. Informal dining, sharing Tapas (while some were far too good to share!) Lovely attentive staff, a regular favourite in Aberdeen

Great services , good quality and quantity

Wonderful authentic setting, felt like we were on holiday. The manager, Olga(?) was exceptional. She was genuine in her friendliness & wanting to look after us. Fantastic service. Thank you 🙏

Food and service is always good. Have a good deal on at present

Fantastic loved the food the service was great and the atmosphere was lively. We traveled from Blackpool to Aberdeen for a night away from the children and we found this delightful restaurant we would definitely recommend this place it was great.

Both food and cocktails were amazing! Friendly and fast service, will definitely be back!

Excellent food and drink. Very attentive staff.

Great service which felt a bit rushed but can't fault it. Atmosphere was good as it was busy. Food is mediocre for the price. We ordered 9 plates of Tapas, bread and three desserts. I understand its tapas but the quality of food is not worth the price. Could be done with easing up on some of the sauces as my bowl was almost like a soup, where I had to fish the meat out. Chicken mostly all batter and the lamb wasn't the best. Moorish skewers could have been store bought as they weren't any different. Drinks are over priced for what you get. Four strawberry daiquiris two of which were virgin, but cost the same? I was hugely disappointed with the jug of Cava Sangria. Didn't taste like much alcohol was mixed within. Restaurant applies a mandatory service charge too. I usually tip around £20 if I'm in a restaurant and receive service. Positive of the night, I saved money on tipping. 😅

Lovely meal - goats cheese with marmalade - so delicious - prawns - all perfect

One of the best place I visited on Aberdeen.

Went before Christmas and it was really busy but in a nice way! Service was extremely quick and staff were very attentive. Our favourites were the chicken thighs and the ham and cheese croquettes!

Take me to Cafe Andaluz anytime! Oh, my! So good! The mussels and the bacalao were especially good - the sauces for both were absolutely delicious. PRO TIP: Order bread. You’re going to want it to dip into the sauces and savor every drop. I loved the decor and the music was a great compliment to the dining experience. And the two servers I interacted with were simply the best. I couldn’t have asked for more. I’m quite sure if I ate there every day I’d never tire of it. Highly recommended!

Tasty tapas. Friendly staff. Good value 👍

Great food and drinks good service

Good food, polite but non pressuring service, nice atmosphere. A little more expensive than a traditional restaurant but a good experience to try lots of different things.

Here for first time Food just lovely Service very good

Lovely food and friendly waiters. We ordered the tortilla española, patatas gratinadas, mejillones a la marinera, pescado adobado, croquetas de jamón y queso, chuletas de cordero, and the chorizo y butifarra negra. All dishes were great, and all came out to the table at the same time. I’d recommend 3 per person, but we went with 7 between the 2 of us. Beautiful interior.

Service was faultless, 100%. Food excellent. Place was a bit quiet, as is everywhere in Aberdeen City centre, not their problem!

Bardzo dobre jedzenie i znakomita obsługa klienta. Polecam.

Really good date night venue. Food was delicious, and super quick to appear. Washed down with delicious sangria and served with smiles. Definitely recommend

Went here for a work outing, delicious food, great vegetarian options and friendly staff overall a great place would definitely recommend.

Out for lunch for my daughters 21st birthday food was amazing, staff were absolutely fantastic went over and above would definitely recommend.

Five star authentic Spanish food selections from Andalusia

Amazing food, highly recommend the black pudding

Wonderful experience. Good food, service and ambiance.

Paella lacked aspragus, chicken dry. But I would still go back and try something else.

Recommended here by my brother. Service was fast and polite. Atmosphere was great and the food was lovely. Very reasonable prices for Aberdeen.Pity it's an hour away from me.

Great service, fantastic food and excellent staff

Received a voucher from my son and family for my birthday in October so went with my wife for the VIP offer..... We had bread etc to begin with and 2 really fine glasses of Sangria......we shared 5 tapas..... everyone of them just so good...really freshly made with brilliant flavours.Our desserts were magic.....pint of San Miguel spot on and our red and white house wines were perfect.Service and attention was first class and friendly.A brilliant lunchtime for us.

Amazing food and the staff were really friendly, well worth the trip

Almost everything was superb, staff were brilliant. All the tapas was beautiful. I only have one criticism. The Paella was terrible, worst one I have had anywhere, I'm afraid. Rubbery dry chicken and no real flavour. Shame really as everything else was so good. I would definitely return but wouldn't order the paella. Special mention to the servers who were so lovely.

I was in with my partner between 9:30pm and 10:30pm Saturday the 4th. First time being in. Kaci was our server and by god was she brilliant. Seemed to be a long day for her but her service and attention to detail was phenomenal, really made us feel at home. Food was brilliant and the red wine she recommended was incredible. Really was made to feel taken care of and the way a first experience should be. We will most certainly be back not just because of the amazing food but because of her high quality of service that she provided us with. And being a bouncer within the hospitality industry too we certainly need more like her with that passion she had.

Zeer gezellig enmooi authentiek cafe restaurant !! het eten islekker en je wordt snel bediend. als je de stad aandoet moet je hier zeker even stoppen

We went out for a family meal. We called one day ahead and booked a table for 5 at 8pm Stlaturday night. Had a wonderful time. The atmosphere and decor is beautiful and great lighting. We each chose 2-4 plates of tapas. Great selection for vegetarians, meat eaters and fish options. Our waiters were friendly, very accommodating and attentive. Price was reasonable for the lovely experience we had.

Great food and friendly staff. Free dessert for my daughters birthday which was unexpected but greatly appreciated

First time visit, great choice from the menu. Brilliant atmosphere, Spannish/ Moorish decor. As it is in a busy area of the city, nearby parking can be limited. Would go back.

Food was amazing, Paulina's service was excellent. Loved it.

Good place to go for a bite to eat

Not that great. In fact the patatas bravas were awful, rubbery uncooked huge chunks of potatoes in a horrible sauce. We sent them back, and received the same dish back with a couple of fried potatoes added to the top! The waiting staff were nice, not their fault about the chefs! The brownie was hard, dry and stale. The wines are pretty awful Spanish offerings, and the fizz had no fizz. The added service charge is just a rip off. Would have no wish to return

One of the tapas dishes I ordered was patatas bravas, they were very undercooked so I returned them without tasting. They were replaced and looked ok, until I got to the ones under the top layer, they were very undercooked and some so bad you felt it when cutting them. I ordered the brownie and it was far from fresh, I will not return

Feiret bursdagen min her. Fikk masse nydelig mat, god service og et fint bord. God verdi for pengene synes vi. Anbefaler et besøk her, og her kommer vi gjerne igjen.

We came here Sunday evening. The food was absolutely amazing. The service was first class. The prices are very fair. There is a lovey warm atmosphere. We will definitely come back again very soon!

Utterly amazing food, was literally blown away with the quality of food and the service. Will definitely be back.

Must be my best restaurant within Aberdeen. Staff are always helpful, food is served quick, food is always amazing and they have good cocktails. If you're looking for a good meal and not be disappointed look no further.

Went here as a treat for our daughter. Absolutely delicious food.

I live in Andalusia and the food was a little disappointing

Excellent food and excellent service

Good service and nice food... attentive and helpful staff

Very good experience - waitress Olga really was an outstanding host and went the extra mile to provide excellent customer service

I went on a Monday evening and the place was busy but I was served quickly, there was a great buzz of conversation in the restaurant and the food was delicious. I had the Paella which was freshly cooked and worth the 25 minute wait, which was explained on the menu and by the waitress before I ordered.

Excellent central location just off Union Street and perfectly placed for a treat after your visit to Slaters. Andaluz is a spacious buzzing restaurant with an extensive menu of Tapas and other larger mains such as Paellas. We had a selection of Tapas dishes which were perfect with a couple of jugs of delicious Sangria while we nibbled and chatted through a romantic evening in Aberdeen. The choice of authentic dishes was extensive, quality of food was good and service excellent. All at a reasonable price. Will definitely visit again when we return.

Fabulous food and beautiful restaurant. Was impressed at how busy it was on a Tuesday evening but can see why. The food is delicious and great service and wine selection

Great place, great food. Lots of good options for tapas. They also got main dishes menu which looks great although I didn’t got one of those. Highly recommended !

First time at this restaurant having heard so many great things said about it by others. Great service, excellent tasty tapas, such a choice means we'll have to go again to sample others!

Lovely friendly service. Amazing menus so hard to choose. Prompt delivery of the food that tasted every bit as good as the menu promised.

Nice place and decor. Very good staff. Tapas delicious! Cocktails/mock tails recommended. Easy access.

A beautiful meal in a relaxed atmosphere. The tapas selection is spot on (as is the sangria!) but what makes this place worth visiting is the staff - friendly, attentive and genuinely welcoming. A joy to visit.

Start by saying the food is really nice. Our food was served onto our table and we began to eat. The server then brought other dishes we noticed that they were clearly meant for someone else and they mixed up one of our dishes. Explained we had starting eating out of that one that she picked up. Olga the server then proceeded to give the 1/2 eaten plate to the table next to us. The servers left the other table and I couldn’t believe my eyes. I went over to the server and explained she willingly put a half eaten plate of food on someone else’s table. I then said to the people at that table not to eat it because I had already eaten from it and they were happy to give it to someone else. I think some retraining of food dispensing is required. Clearly not learned from Covid.

1st time visit and we will be back. Fantastic tapas, friendly service. Would recommend the baked aubergine, gambas, mussels, creamed potatoes

Was there last weekend for boozy brunch which we enjoyed I would have given them 5 stars for service and food but I didn’t realise I was charged a service charge which was not explained to me I was just presented with the bill. They really should be letting people know that they add this on. We tend to go on special occasions that has put me off now.

Great spot for brunch! The Boozy brunch we should have shared as you get a bruschetta type bread dish to start, two plates which can be two breakfast dishes and 4 cocktails! And the cocktails were fresh and very boozy! All for £35. Brilliant value!...

We enjoyed our second visit here - so much we bought another Itison voucher to use in June. The food and service were excellent. The tapas were all good - my favourite was the lamb tagine and my husband liked the honey battered chicken best....

We had a very nice evening. Service was very friendly and they really did their best to feel welcome which was definitely successful. Location is comfortable and looks nice, same for the tableware. Food was very good, but you need to select between 3 which...

I am sorry to give a poor score but we were very disappointed with our visit last night. The restaurant was overfull so had to wait for our table! Fair enough. We opted for the set meal . We ordered 2 as there was 4...

Our last visit had been just before Christmas and the restaurant was very busy with office parties etc. , so not a good time to review. Last night our meal was on the whole delicious and the service was excellent. The only thing stoping us...

Pleasant dinner. Helpful staff. Only criticism was it was over far too soon! So efficient ! Will return.

We have had family meals a couple of times at this restaurant and it never disappoints. We recently visited them again and as always the food was excellent, compliments to the chef for making our food so delicious. A very professional staff, thank you to...

Service was poor it's like they now they are getting the tip as there is a service charge food is not as good as it was not worth the money any more

Tapas, good. 6 dishes, all tasty. Sangria, good. Churros, good. Service, good (Olga). First visit, will be back!

Attended here when visiting Aberdeen for the day. It was a Sunday afternoon so there was a set menu in place. The set menu was £23 for 3 tapas dishes and a desert however there was a Supplement of £2 for a number of dishes....

I went over with a group of children and adults. They love it. The service from Jorge was excellent. I highly recommend. 5⭐️

The staff were very friendly and the food was delicious and very well presented. I highly recommend this place. We will certainly be returning here

Food as always was delicious and the staff were fantastic. Only issue we had was the area were were seated in was really dark and the music was way too loud for a restaurant, those things kind of spoiled it a bit for us.

Fantastic meal for Mother’s Day.. Food was perfect as always.. Most of all the service was absolutely amazing! Our waitress Olga deserves some credit as she never stopped and was the perfect amount of attentive

First time here and it was great. Service and food were excellent and so nice to go somewhere different to celebrate 28 years married.

Came here on a double date and it was fantastic as always. Friendly staff and quick service. We used an itison voucher which was good value for money, but we would come here even without a voucher! Food was tasty and served quickly as always....

Visited for Sunday lunch after being unable to get a table the night before. The food was varied and high quality. One of our party is a vegetarian and she was delighted to be able to order from a wide variety of options which is...
