La Paella Tapas Bar in Enfield

Amazing food, great atmosphere and very homely feel, would definitely recommend!

Excellent service, food and atmosphere, just like always!

Tortilla, paella, chorizo, chicken and lentils, chickpeas, almond tart — all amazing!

Really great. Fantastic food and service. Recommended!

Second visit for us. Last time we devoured their tapas. This time it was paella. Everything tasted great. Sangria was delicious too. The mussels in the paella could be fresher (my only complaint).

Amazing food and great service- will be coming back

Had a fantastic lunch today at La Paella Tapas Bar in Southgate. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the food was spot on. The highlight was definitely the ink paella very rich, perfectly cooked, and bursting with flavor. A special shoutout to Miguel, the owner, who was an amazing host and made the whole experience even better. Can’t wait to come back!

Love it here. The food is authentic 😋

La Paella Tapas Bar is an amazing place with delicious authentic Spanish food, La Paella Marinara it's a must when visiting.

Good food, great staff thank you

The food was absolutely delicious and fresh. Already thinking about what we'll order next time!!! Service was relaxed and attentive. We really enjoyed our lunch. Thank you

Came here for my Abuela’s birthday who passed away in August, so to find a traditional Spanish restaurant was important, this place was amazing we had 19 dishes and every single one of them was amazing not one bad thing about them, it really brought me back to Spain and I’ve tried many tapas places and nothing comes close to this amazing family run business.

Been here quite a few times. Food is always great.

whole tables thoughts, i like the google thing that you tap to review very wholesome and humble atmosphere

The food was not authentic. Very bland and disappointing. Very overpriced

Food was delicious, and customers service excellent

A very discombobulated dinner experience. We were served by three different servers so each time we tried to wave someone down, requests would go unnoticed or pushed on to someone else. This took even longer when asking for the bill. Wrong food was placed at our table and the drinks order was taken incorrectly. The tables are way too small to have the minimum of 5-6 dishes, so it made for a cumbersome effort to serve, rearrange plates and comfortably eat. This could somewhat be forgiven if the food quality was exceptional but it left a lot to be desired. Unfortunately, I would not recommend or return from this first time experience.

Really lovely local restaurant. Food is excellent with a great choice. Everything we ordered was delicious. Would definitely recommend. Hope to be back again soon.

Nice Spanish tapas restaurant! Family run over 3 generations Good food, cold beer on draft! The chicken paella was amazing! Plenty to go round and plenty of burnt bits to fight over

Fabulous food, great portion sizes. Excellent service. The owner was friendly and welcoming. I will definitely return.

Excellent home-made food always a pleasure to come here.

Great food, authentic Spanish food. Been around for years and amazing ambience!

Service was slow. Relaxed atomosphere. The 30% discount was only on the Tapas not on all food. We choose a selection of 7 tapas. All were good apart from the pork which was extremely tough. The discount was taken off the prices but wasn't shown separately. Having checked the prices on the menu shown on their website and on The Fork they were cheaper than the menu given to us in the restaurant. This is therefore misleading and they should update their information.

I stopped for tapas at lunchtime. The croquetas were very good, washed down with half a pint of San Miguel and then a bill equal to a Ryanair flight to Spain. More than 15 quid for a quick ( tasty) snack. £3.50 was a service charge.. But was removed when I pointed out that I ordered at the bar and then paid at the bar.

We tried this Spanish restaurant for the first time, having driven past it many times. It really is excellent with a great selection of tapas as well as traditional Spanish dishes (although not migas de pastor!). Nice selection of Spanish wines too, although only House Red, White and Rioja served by the glass, which is a pity. It was quiet but it was during the Christmas week when I think most restaurants are subdued. We will definitely be back. Note that parking is dreadful around Southgate tube station but there is parking at M&S for £5 and I think you can park in the Leisure Centre car park.

Always delicious. Fantastic value. Very friendly. My favourite restaurant in the area

Love this place Miguel is always very welcoming must try the croquettes mussels paella. can't wait to go back

We loved it! The owner was wonderful he served us personally and with enthusiasm and he loved to chat which we really liked. The food was good quality and very good value. Will definitely be coming again!!

Fantastic meal. Food was delicious. Service was great. Thanks very much!

Amazing place with proper Spanish food. The Jamon Iberico, potatoes and paella de la casa were our best choices. The service was incredible, our server made us feel at home.

Our favourite restaurant, been regulars for years. Love it.

Lovely food and great atmosphere

We enjoyed our visit to La Paella Tapas Bar. We had the beef stew tapas and seafood paella, both of which were outstanding. The food was delicious, and the service was prompt. The atmosphere was inviting, making it a wonderful dining experience.

The food was bland unfortunately as previously it has been good. Service was basic.

Our new favourite spot in Southgate. Make sure you order the Leche Frita!

Have visited this restaurant many times over around twenty years. The food is always great and there are lots of choices (I am vegetarian and never struggle to find options). Service is excellent. A very friendly place. Thoroughly recommended.

food arrived very quickly and was delicious. service was super fast. We will definitely return soon for some nice Spanish Tapas.

Our first visit here and we enjoyed the meal thoroughly. We had a selection of tapas. The octopus was divine. Miguel was very welcoming and it was lovely to hear the history of this restaurant which is a long standing local institution we were lucky to experience. Looking forward to next time!

The meal was delicious as usual

Amazing food and service as always. The staff are lovely and can’t do enough for you.

We love La Paella, they serve amazing food with a friendly ambience and service. We will always come back here, highly recommend!

Regulars tried new dish and had superb duck dish

We absolutely love La Paella and Miguel 🇪🇸

The atmosphere was amazing. The food is authentic and absolutely delicious. The staff was very friendly.

Had a lovely family meal, excellent food and service and a really friendly atmosphere. We loved it here and definitely recommend!!!

Nice little local gem in north London !

The best and most authentic Spanish food in London. Owner is friendly and so hospitable. Always a great time whenever we go! Highly recommend this restaurant.

Excellent food, fine wine and a good ambience.

We always come here when we in London - an experience like no other - you are part of the La Paella family! The reserve wines you are served and the Tapas are to die for!!

Nice restaurant, the guy serving was great. Pity it was so quiet. The paella was average.

We ordered food for a family anniversary. They could not have been nicer. The food was smashing. If you want a real family run Spanish meal, don't go anywhere else

A family reunion , our first visit to La Paella . What a wonderful time we had . The nicest people , the finest food and a glorious atmosphere . We cannot wait to go back .

Absolutely brilliant. Great service, lovely food.

Great place for some Spanish food. The tapas I ordered were great - croquetas de la casa ( the small portion of salad that goes with it was so tasty) and Carillera Artesana de Teruel - slow cooked wild boar served on a bed of chips & paprika. Much better than most places you find out there that serve dry and flavourless. This place is awesome - the service was quick, polite and very accommodating.

Great food, authenticate cuisine with traditional Spanish tapas. We had a selection of seafood, sardines, mussels, octopus and was all amazing. The service is excellent and served quickly and overall very food value for money. Thanks Miguel and team!

Loved our recent visit. The tapas was good value & great quality. Very welcoming and a really nice atmosphere. Will definitely book again.

First time ordered it was nice but muscles were cold and not much quantity for 2 persons for the price

Lovely little Spanish restaurant. We will definitely returns

Highly recommended. If you’re after amazing, authentic tapas, a chilled out atmosphere and attentive and friendly staff then this is the place for you. We enjoyed a wonderful meal here. Recommend the whitebait, calamari and meatballs. Can’t wait to come back soon!

Fabulous food and great service! Super relaxing atmosphere

a great authentic Tapas restaurant. Me and my friend are here for a gig and found this place by chance and could not be happier, the food was really well priced plus extremely good!! Miguel was a great host would recommend to anyone.

My son treated me to Mother's Day lunch as I'll be cooking for my Mum in the Day. Great choices on menu and the owner was very welcoming.

My partner and I had a meal here in October and it was brilliant. The food was amazing. I am not a massive fan of seafood, but we had the seafood paella and all of it was excellent. The service was very quick (drinks & food) and very attentive. The staff were really friendly and welcoming. The décor was suited the style of the restaurant and bar and the place was clean, it also had a great atmosphere. It is on a main high street; so parking is a bit of a pain, but worth it. I did notice a sign that said 'toilet are for customers only', I appreciate your in a high foot fall area (near a station), however I am/and know people with medical conditions this always makes be feel a bit negative. Other than that highly recommended.

I left feeling like I had been robbed.

Lovely food, friendly service, great atmosphere, good value, would go again.

Excellent food. Nice atmosphere. Great service. Good price.

What an amazing place! The staff are absolutely perfection, they are funny, nice and make you feel so at home .. and the food, ahh the food is beautiful we can’t wait to come back and eventually get through the whole menu! Juan (waiter) is the best waiter there is! He was funny sweet and made us feel like we knew him for years! What a wonderful man!

Amazing tapas, good portions, the wine selection is quite unique in quality and the service up to standards, good value for money- I highly recommend Las Paellas

The best tapas - highly recommend

Always delicious and beautifully cooked food, feels very fresh and authentic

Food wonderful as always. Food great. Service good.

We went to La Paella for a birthday party with 30 guests, Miguel was extremely helpful in the lead up and made sure we had everything we needed. On the night, the whole team were lovely and very attentive, considering how many of us there were. Atmosphere was brilliant and the food was excellent too. Highly recommend for a party or a dinner/lunch for just a few.

Beautiful cod and crisp delicious wine. Absolutely delicious

Fantastic tapas generous portions ,food was delicious and staff lovely and friendly, if you like tapas definitely come here .

I had a lovely experience tonight at this cosy Spanish restaurant. A very warm welcome from Miguel, delicious food and a good atmosphere. I will definitely go back in the future.

Visited twice of the weekend. First had a couple of tapas (which are very generous portions) followed by a meat paella. Excellent paella, properly cooked do all the juices had been absorbed by the rice. Packed with meat too. Second time shared 5 tapas plates and were absolutely full! Great atmosphere. Very friendly staff - gent served on Saturday, young lady on Sunday. Both excellent, efficient, attentive.

A great place - first rate Spanish cooking in a friendly atmosphere

I've been coming to LA Paella ever since it opened over 20 years ago. Excellent food and ambience. Highly recommended.

We've been coming to La Paella for 20 years, says it all!

We had a selection of tapas and paella for the main course, which were better than expected, especially the freshness of the ingredients, truly delicious!

We really enjoyed our dinner at La Paella 100%. From the outset, staff were friendly and easy-going... It was already like being in Spain... We had a selection of tapas (and then paella for the main course), which were better than expected, especially the freshness of the ingredients, truly delicious! Service was on point, friendly and efficient. An excellent Spanish restaurant, well worth a journey, if you're not far from Southgate : )

If you are a fan of Spanish food, then look no further. The food, service, atmosphere, and staff are all fantastic. An authentic restaurant that makes you feel like you are in Spain. The music is excellent, and the Tapas lunch deal is highly recommended. Remember, miss it, miss out!

In a nutshell - characterful decor, friendly service, good food, good wine, reasonable prices. A winning combination! A good restaurant to eat at with friends/ significant other and share small tapas plates. I didn't try the paella but can say the tapas is delicious. A good selection of vegetarian (and some vegan) options clearly highlighted on the menu. I especially loved the patatas bravas, the braised spinach, and the cumin chickpeas.

I have been coming to La Paella since it opened and Miguel always gives us a warm welcome. He is very friendly with a great sense of humour and he always lets me practise my dreadful Spanish. The food is tip top and his Sangria one of the best I have tasted. The churros are so delicious too. I have never had a bad meal here and all of the friends who I have brought here have loved it too. Would recommend it to everyone, there is plenty of choice and something for everyone. Muchas gracias.

A warm welcome is always a great way to start your visit to this beautiful restaurant. The service is speedy, the food is hot and delicious plus there is a wide range of food on the menu. Suitable for vegans but especially great for carnivores and pescararians. A good choice of wines and Spanish beer on tap plus bottled beers available. The front of the restaurant opens up to let the fresh air in on a sunny day, giving you the feeling you are in sunny Spain as you review the Spanish artefacts on the colourful restaurant walls. The restaurant is quaint and cosy without being on top of your fellow diners. Wild Boar with paprika on a bed of chipped potatoes is a favourite amongst all the usual suspects on the menu, plus a few other dishes that you don't see in your average tapas restaurant. I have always ate tapas here, as I enjoy a mixture of tastes and teures, hence I can't comment on the main courses but they do look and sound delicious. Two minutes walk from the local tube station. Enjoy.

Went there for my birthday dinner (23/9/23 date) with husband and kids. Absolutely gorgeous food and the man who served us helped my 8yr old practice his Spanish too! Lovely restaurant and brilliant food

愛上了西班牙菜，這是新發現的第二間在倫敦的西班牙餐廳，尤其是他們的西班牙海鮮飯，等候30分鐘的製作時間是值得的！

I went on a Thursday at 1pm, this was a good time to go for me as it was more quiet. I was impressed with the food and was happy that what we wanted was available. The service was good. The food was high quality, fresh, tasty and the portion sizes were big enough. I especially enjoyed the fresh octopus. Was happy with the prices. I can see why this place survived the pandemic. Hope to go back with more family next time.

This is the best tapas restaurant to go to I live in Tottenham and the restaurant there are not great so I recommend this place

One of the best Spanish places in North London

We really enjoyed our meal at La Paella - the paella itself was delicious and we loved the tapas too. Would also recommend the sangria!

Amazing paella,would order again.

Easy ordering. Good paella. Arrived a little early but better than late.

Lovely wine and tapas, service and atmosphere. Paella bland, needed the lemon, salt and tabasco available. Would come again and just have more of the tapas

Nice little independent Spanish restaurant - in a unassuming location from the outside but quite cosy and the decor inside makes it feel like a little bit of Spain. A selection of tasty tapas followed by sharing a Paella de Casa, all food was cooked well and authentic. Good selection of reasonably priced Spanish wines. I'd say 4.5 stars for the food but it gets rounded up because of the atmosphere, friendly service and it is just the sort of small independent restaurant that should be supported!

Best place to eat spanish food. The staff are really friendly especially the waitress who was very helpful. Great selection of wines. its a must whilst you are in southgate. cant wait to go again.

lovely food, octopus, meat balls etc.

Excellent tapas. The slow cooked wild boar really stood out as well as the octopus but everything was of an excellent quality. Very decent chap who runs it too: great to chat too and friendly with our kids.

Some of the finest Spanish Hams, Tapas and Paella I’ve eaten outside of Spain. My favourite Spanish Restaurant highly recommended ❤️💛❤️

Really good food I have eaten in Spanish restaurants in Central London where food twice the price and half as good. Great atmosphere
