Decent location in a popular restaurant location of Guildford Decor inside was OK, fairly basic - no thrills It was a quiet Sunday evening, but I feel the service we received tonight is how it usually is - due to the nature of both the ladies on shift Friendly, helpful and extremely efficient Food wise - a good selection of tapas on the menu Reasonably price for the portion size The tapas that we had was decent - especially the Lubina (fish dish) The paella’s (meat and seafood) were of good size - we couldn’t finish and had to take away Sadly, we still struggle to find a truly authentic paella in the UK Where’s the crunchy rice that you need to scrape off the bottom of the pan? Why isn’t the meat/seafood fully infused into the rice itself Flavours are lost and can’t be compensated with an overuse of salt I read someone else’s review that they accused the paella of coming from Costco and simply reheated - I get that, a bit harsh, but I see where they’re coming from If I were to return here, I would have tapas only and hope we have the same two waitresses working

La Casita is a really lovely airy restaurant on a quiet side street in Guildford. Four of us had two tapas each and a paella to share, which was the right amount for a not-too-heavy lunch. The croquetas were a highlight, also the chorizo with balsamic and rocket, & the albondigas. The paella was very good too, arriving after we had finished our tapas (the menu warns that this needs 25 mins to prepare). We also enjoyed churros with chocolate sauce & totally delicious dulce de leche ice cream balls wrapped in cookie dough. Coffee was good. Service was friendly and efficient - would definitely return for lunch or dinner.

The service, food and ambiance was all top notch. We had various tapas, of course, and the baked fish casserole, which was very good.

The food was so basic, service poor. Paella took 15 mins and tasted frozen from Costco. Will not return. Waste of money. You’ve got to up standards of food when paying a lot of money to eat out. This was honestly frozen food and not worth the money.

Really average food. Didn’t taste like quality ingredients. Bland croquetas, too much salt in the chard and potatoes and the meatballs came in a pale orange sauce and the meat was processed and plastic.

At the time I am writing this, this restaurant is rated as 4.5/5 - far too high in my opinion but having lived in Spain for over 2 years, Spanish restaurants in the UK often just disappoint. If you order tapas from a local place in Spain, you will get a portion designed for sharing as that is what tapas is for. Typically for over here, in La Casita, if you order a portion of croquetas, you get a portion of just 4 for £8.50. They were nice enough but overpriced. The Serrano ham was also pretty disappointing. Overall, if you have an urge for some Spanish food, it’s all generally decent enough but nothing to write to home about.

Really disappointed. Came hoping for some lovely tapas now that the weather is warming up. The portions were very small, and each tapas added up to quite a large amount of money in the end. The patatas aioli honestly felt like it had just been heated up from the freezer, I could make better at home. Surprised with the amount of good reviews the restaurant has. Definitely will not be returning.

Very average. I’m surprised at the good reviews this place has received. The service was weak at best. Barely engaged staff, quite disinterested in the customer. Unfortunately our special of the evening - cod cheeks in a tomato sauce with capers - was clearly off. That it got out of the kitchen was in itself worrying. Of course they took it back but were so disinterested I rather worry that it’s a frequent occurrence. I for one, will not be finding out. The rest of the offering was OK, but I could only recommend the Octopus. The white Rioja was worth the money. Entirely missable.

Really enjoyed our visit here last night. Would've been better without the really noisy table next to us, but the restaurant can't help that. I had the sea bass, it was very good. The only thing that could've been better is the dishes to come up closer together. My friends ordered paella and it turned up about 5 minutes after everything else so our dishes weren't just as hot as they could've been.

My husband and I had dinner at La Casita last night to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Much as we like this restaurant, having been before, on this occasion the experience was not so good. Although the staff are friendly and the food is pretty good, I found myself extraction a long black hair mid chew. Given I am blonde and my husband has no hair, it was clear it did not belong to us. The waiter took the hair off me and offered me a new dish, but needless to say, I was no longer hungry. The dish was removed from the bill but there was no offer of anything else to make up for the inconvenience of this experience. We even paid the service charge on the bill. We may be back but will think twice about it …

My wife and I are not really tapas fans and didn't realise La Casita did Paella, which we love, so didn't go for many years, despite knowing Gianfranco from his previous restaurant. We now go at least once a fortnight and it is consistently good. Gianfranco and his team are excellent, always friendly and efficient. Highly recommended.

If we didn’t I think it was probably a bit overpriced for the fact we spent less than an hour inside and the amount of food we ordered. Don’t like that they add the service charge on either; it should be dependent on the service - not expected. Toilets really clean and restaurant was comfortable and safe.

We originally booked a table for Tuesday evening 18/08/20, taking advantage of the 'eat out to help out' scheme, and the food was so good we ended up booking a table again (just as we were leaving) for Saturday 23rd!On our first meal we ordered the meat paella, and a couple of tapas dishes - and having travelled to Spain quite a bit in the past my girlfriend reckoned it was the best paella she'd eaten outside of Spain (nothwithstanding we possibly should have gone for the more mixed paella for the flavours that the seafood adds to it).On our second meal we tried out some of the various tapas dishes including the Croquetas de pollo and one of the chorizo dishes from the specials board, which were all excellent as well. Being a fan of churros we ordered the 'Porros' for desert, and again my girlfriend reckoned it was actually better than some of the ones she's had in Spanish markets (it wasn't 'greasy' at all and the chocolate sauce was fantastically rich).Staff were very courteous and attentive and we had a brilliant experience - the manager even remembered us the second time round and specially made sure we got a nice window seat (being that Saturday was less busy than the Tuesday with more tables available). Would highly recommend this lovely restaurant and we'll no doubt be finding another excuse to come back to Guildford again just to eat here!

We popped in here for lunch the other day and omg, it was delicious! Everything we chose was so tasty, we shall definitely be going back! The staff were very friendly and although the restaurant itself was quite it had a nice relaxed atmosphere, a very lovely lunchtime experience indeed!

Booked a table for my wife's birthday (a Monday so it was just us and another couple in the whole restaurant). Ordered some drinks and some starter tapas dishes (Stuffed Peppers and Whitebait). The Peppers were really bland but the Whitebait were nice.Ordered a mixed Paella and it was hands down the best we have had outside of Spain. We finshed the main and asked if we wanted something for dessert - this is where it went downhill for us (starters aside). We asked if they prepared any of the desserts in house - the waitress said no, but the Churras were really good. I love churras, so decided to take her word for it. They were awful - almost hollow inside and overly greasy. No service check was made (again) and the staff were just hanging around the bar area. We left over half the order and finally got the waitresses attention for the bill. When she came over I told her the Churras were really bad so said 'Oh sorry about that' as she swiped my card and debited my account. No offer of removing them (nearly £8 for four churras is steep anyway - but when they're inedible it's a poor show) - also they added nearly £10 as a service charge too. I always tip - always... as long as the service is good - which it wasn't. Still paid it, but I came away feeling like I never wanted to go back. Shame, as the Paella was great, but the rest marred the whole experince for us both.

I cannot fault this place. Gianfranco who I booked with and waited on us could not have been more attentive. If you’re unfamiliar with Tapas he will guide you through it and offer personalised suggestions. We were all set to order multiple dishes each but even though it would have profited the restaurant he advised us to stick to 2 tapas per person and one to share. The food arrived promptly, piping hot and delicious. (I recommend the baked aubergine.) Thank you to all at La Casita for a lovely evening all round. Will definitely see you again.

The meal was so good and the staff did their best despite it only being the two of them on the floor, which I felt unfair. Even though they had the whole restaurant between the two of them they handled our walk in table very well and were very friendly. Food was great and the atmosphere very relaxed. Definitely come again !!!

It was our first time trying a tapas restaurant so we didn’t know quite what to expect.

This restaurant never disappoints. Delicious tapas, with a good choice of wine and great value for money. The atmosphere is always relaxed and welcoming, and everyone who works there are friendly and can’t do enough for you. A great place to stop for lunch when Christmas shopping in Guildford.

This is the worst Tapas i have ever eaten in my life. You are better off going to the kebab shop across the road. De Nada Tapas in Guildford is much better (although standards are still not what they should be).

Have been looking for a decent tapas for ages and found la Casita whilst searching for somewhere to eat on a lunch out. My friend had never had tapas before so when I suggested a menu and what it entailed she was up for giving it a go and neither of us were disappointed. The staff we lovely , polite and on the ball with filing up my water which for me is such a great thing. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere and I didn’t have a panic attack which is always a bonus when I go somewhere new.. will definitely be visiting again in the very near future.. have missed having tapas so much.. just wish I could have patatas bravas as I miss it so so much..
