The best restaurants serving Spanish food in Brighton and Hove South East

Absolutely loved this little gem we found! Delicious food, great service, clean, quick and welcoming! We will be back!

Brilliant original tapas with lots of surprising flavours. How have we missed this great restaurant for so long? Very friendly and attentive staff and owner. Good bottled, Spanish beers. Great decor and atmosphere.

The best nachos I’ve ever had in Brighton was from Carlito but my recent visit left a lot to be desired. The nachos were smothered in an ultra processed cheese sauce which disguised how little real cheese there really was. There were no refried beans, there wasn’t any real salsa and the portions size was quite shameful. You might expect this from a pub when you’re paying 6 quid but not from a Mexican and paying £12.50. My quesadilla was reasonable but lacked much flavour and there wasn’t really much food inside the tortilla. To be charged service and still be hungry was a bit of an insult. It’s supposed to be street food - you would never expect to be charged service for street food when you’re in and out in 20 minutes. Fair enough if you’re in a group and having cocktails etc. Los nachos no son muy buenos y mi quesadilla es razonable.

I'm from Spain and I have to say that I didn't like this restaurant at all, the tortilla was dry, we had gambas al pilpil and the taste was completely different to the pilpil taste, we also had the oxtail and it has to be tender and easy to cut and it was not like that at all. Prizes were high comparing the quality of food. I am from the south of Spain and I can say that I did not like the food at all, the tortilla was dry and on top of that that day at night I got food poisoning and I spent the whole night returning it, we ordered oxtail and it was hard and difficult to cut, when in reality the oxtail falls apart as tender as it should be. We also ordered shrimp al pilpil and it was not at all the flavor of the traditional recipe. Very poor quality-price ratio, very expensive food for poor quality. Beer price very high compared to what it would cost in England in general.

Amazing experience at Solera Tapas! 🤩 The food is absolutely delicious, with authentic flavors and top quality. The vibe is great—super cozy and perfect for a night out with friends or a date. The service is awesome too, really friendly and attentive. No doubt, I’ll be back soon! 🔥 Highly recommended!

Jaime, el chef es muy amable y tiene el mejor Kebab que he probado! Los precios son baratos y los tamaños son grandes. Ten en cuenta que no es un kebab “normal”, porque tiene su propia manera de cocinar. ¡Pero es muy bueno!
