It's been a while since I visited Salu, a restaurant with affordable wine and small plates menu. Tomorrow I will be teleworking, so I had olives and garlic pickles. This time I tried Spanish beer and it was decent. You should definitely give it a try. It's not too strong in flavor.

There are many types of lunch options and the prices are reasonable. You can also get a large portion of rice. I had the grilled lean beef and it was delicious. The staff were friendly and the restaurant was spacious, allowing for a relaxing lunch. I will definitely go back to try other menu items.

When I don't have a specific place in mind, I often find myself heading towards this restaurant without much thought. It's located near Honmachi Station, so it's convenient to stop by on my way to the subway. They offer a variety of small dishes like white bread, olives, oyster gratin, and carpaccio, so I can try something different each time.

I finished work late and joined the group afterwards. The gratin, olive fried chicken, potato salad, crab cream croquette, etc. were all delicious. Next time, I'll stay a bit longer. The wine selection was also good.

It was a truly delicious and enjoyable restaurant. When you think of Spanish cuisine, you might think of paella, but this place had a wide variety of menu items including cheese, pickles, salami, and other small dishes that were really tasty. They also had a great selection of wines. I haven't given a high score in a while, but this place deserves it.

It's been a while since I last visited. I haven't written on Tabelog, but I've come a few times at night and been satisfied. This time, I came for lunch and ordered the beef sirloin steak (with bread or rice, ¥850). The rice is saffron rice and comes with miso soup. The beef comes with a special sauce to pour over it. The beef was quite delicious, with a good portion size. The saffron rice was also tasty and had a nice texture. I enjoyed it and would like to come back again.

Located a little south of Honmachi Station on the Osaka Yotsubashi Line, this Spanish bar has the Spanish flag displayed on the outside windows. The interior has a few counter seats and table seats, with a relatively spacious area. There are several lunch options available, but I ordered the squid ink paella (¥1080). There are two types of paella available: saffron-flavored paella and squid ink paella. It takes about 20 minutes from ordering to completion. Appetizers such as bread, omelette, and ham are served first, while waiting for the paella to be ready. When the paella is brought out, it is piping hot. Squeeze some lemon on top and enjoy. It was delicious. They accept PayPay. I would like to come back again.

I came here for a day and had some wine and snacks today. I will come back next week.

I visited for lunch. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was calm. I ordered the Cheese Doria (large serving), which came with soup as well. The food took about 20 minutes to be served, probably because it takes time to prepare. The Doria itself had a generous amount of cheese and was quite moist. I don't usually eat Doria, but the ones I've had before were not as moist, so it was interesting to try this kind. The Doria had a tomato base with bits of chorizo, which added a nice flavor. The dish was served hot and I finished it in no time. I had to skip ordering paella this time due to the time it took, but I would like to come back next time for it. They mentioned that if you call ahead, they can adjust the cooking time to your schedule. Thank you for the meal!

I had known about this restaurant since it first opened, but I never got around to trying it. I happened to pass by during the day and saw a lunch sign, so I decided to go in without hesitation. I love paella. It's not easy to find a place that serves a single portion of paella, so I took this opportunity. Cooking paella just right in a small pot may be difficult. While snacking on salad and tapas, I waited for the paella to be ready. After a while, the piping hot paella was ready. It was cooked just right, and I felt like I could easily eat a big pot of it. I definitely want to come back to this kind of restaurant at night and try out various dishes.

This is the third time. I always visit when there are not many customers. The TV gives off a somewhat disappointing atmosphere, but it might be nice for drinking alone. The staff and the manager are all very nice. On weekdays, there are often middle-aged salarymen sitting at the counter. The food tastes are generally average. However, as someone who likes accessible restaurants, wine, and cheese, it suits my needs, so I think I will go back again. It's a casual, affordable Spanish bar for the general public.

After a long time without overtime, feeling like having a drink, I found a Spanish restaurant on the way home and decided to go in with my colleague. We toasted with Spanish beer and ordered two recommended dishes from the staff: Flamenco Eggs - a gentle dish with half-cooked eggs and plenty of vegetables, and Oil-stewed Pacific Saury - a hot dish with shrimp and mackerel in oil, different from the usual seafood dishes. The No. 1 dish we chose ourselves was Fried Olives, which was much tastier than eating olives normally and went well with wine. I want to try making fried olives at home! Other dishes we enjoyed were Tomato-stewed Chicken, Garlic-stir fried Squid Legs, Cheese Assortment, Potato Salad Tapas, and Ham and Lettuce Tapas. Spanish cuisine is not just about paella! Overall, the menu featured a lot of dishes with garlic. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I visited the restaurant late at night, close to closing time. There were only two staff members, a female owner/chef and a male staff member, running the place. The restaurant has counter seats and table seats, with a calming atmosphere featuring a lot of wood accents. Perhaps because the owner is a woman, the atmosphere felt very relaxed. However, it must be tough for just two people to run the place with this capacity. The dishes I tried, the simmered offal and the paella, were delicious. The paella comes in two options, squid ink or saffron, and I chose saffron this time. At 960 yen, the saffron paella was worth it. I'm grateful to the chef who accommodated my order even though it was past the last order time. I wanted to try more dishes, but I didn't have much time, so I'll save that for next time. I'll make sure to visit earlier next time. Thank you for the meal.

Meson Salud, a popular Spanish bar in the west of Nakanojo Park, has opened a second branch called Meson Salud! The main attraction of Salud is its friendly and casual atmosphere, where you can enjoy delicious food and drinks while chatting with other customers. The prices are reasonable, making it popular among individuals, couples, families, and even office workers. The new branch is located near Hommachi Station, just a few minutes walk from the main road. The interior is spacious and clean, with a cozy feel. The menu offers a variety of dishes, such as oyster tomato stew, fried blowfish sperm sac, and Spanish bread. The drinks menu includes beer, sangria, and recommended red wines. Overall, the experience at Meson Salud is enjoyable and affordable, making it a great choice for various occasions.

(Revisited in May 2012) I revisited this place after a while and found it to be quite quiet on a Sunday night. I had a refreshing sangria and dishes like Iberico ham, celery escabeche, whelk in oil, fugu shirako sauté, flamenco egg, lemon-flavored salmon, and saffron-flavored paella. The Iberico ham was like a delicious raw ham, the celery escabeche was light and refreshing, the whelk in oil was tasty, the fugu shirako was soft and flavorful, the salmon was juicy and flavorful, and the paella was full of clams and other seafood. Overall, the food was delicious and satisfying. (First visit in April 2012) I was intrigued by the reviews of this restaurant by "Flame of Naniwa" and decided to check it out. The place offers Spanish home-cooked dishes and has a cozy atmosphere. I tried dishes like firefly squid stir-fry, mushroom grill with ham, flamenco egg, fried sardines, squid ink stew, scallop gratin, tuna stew, Spanish-style tripe stew, roast beef, garlic soup with rice. The firefly squid stir-fry had a delicious miso flavor, the mushroom grill with ham was harmonious, the flamenco egg was rich and flavorful, the squid ink stew was tasty, the scallop gratin was hearty, the tuna stew was like a meat and potato stew, the tripe stew was unique, the roast beef was rare and flavorful, and the garlic soup with rice was garlicky and satisfying.

"Home-cooked meals (local specialties or mother's cooking) are always the best no matter what cuisine you try! When you go to any restaurant, you often end up with the same old "classic dishes" and it can get boring. For example, in Chinese cuisine, there is such a variety of ingredients and cooking styles, but most places stick to the same menu with dishes like "pan-fried dumplings," "mapo tofu," "sweet and sour pork," and "beef with green peppers." It would be nice to see more unique and unfamiliar dishes on the menu. The same goes for other cuisines as well. Spanish cuisine has its own set of classic dishes like "cured ham," "paella," "cod dishes," "garlic and olive oil sautéed mushrooms," and "omelettes." Of course, these classic dishes should be delicious, but it's also fun to try something new and different once in a while. That's why I was excited to find a hidden gem of a restaurant in a back alley in the city. The restaurant, 'Meson Salud,' specializes in Spanish home-cooked meals and is perfect for solo diners looking for a casual dining experience. The cozy atmosphere and the recommended dishes on the blackboard caught my attention. I started with the 'grilled baby squid with garlic,' which was a unique and delicious way to enjoy this seasonal ingredient. It paired perfectly with both beer and wine. Next, I tried the 'oysters stewed in tomato sauce,' which was a new way for me to enjoy oysters. The combination of oysters and tomato sauce was surprisingly tasty, especially when paired with bread to soak up the sauce. I also ordered some Spanish bread to enjoy with the remaining sauce. Feeling adventurous, I decided to try the 'sauteed fugu milt,' a dish that I had never tried before. The fugu milt was cooked perfectly and the contrast between the crispy coating and the creamy milt inside was delightful. I also indulged in a glass of dry muscat wine, which complemented the dishes perfectly. For the final dish, I opted for the 'beef stew with saffron rice,' which was flavorful and satisfying. The tender beef and the aromatic saffron rice were a great way to end the meal. Overall, I had a great dining experience at Meson Salud, trying new and delicious dishes that I wouldn't find at a typical restaurant. It's always exciting to discover hidden gems like this and enjoy authentic home-cooked meals from different cultures."

If you're looking for a Spanish bar in Honmachi, MESON SALUD is the place to go! Located in Honmachi, this is the second branch of the original SALUD in Tanimachi. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with a mix of regulars and newcomers. The menu offers a variety of Spanish-inspired dishes, such as Moth Stew, Garlic Sauteed Shirako, Paella, Chorizo, and Canarian-style Potato Fries. The house wine is reasonably priced and of good quality. The highlight of the meal was the delicious Paella with squid ink, perfectly cooked rice, and rich flavors. Overall, a great spot for Spanish cuisine in Honmachi.

I stopped by on Saturday afternoon and it was not crowded, so I could enjoy a quiet lunch with just one other regular customer nearby. The lunch options were delicious and I had a great meal!

I had a tough time at L@pi, so I'm starting to feel a little hungry. Normally, I would still be full, but I'm looking for a restaurant with a rating of 3.5 or higher around Nishimotocho. I found this place. It's the restaurant in front of Wine Planet. The Garcia-style octopus, hmm, the octopus was boiled and sprinkled with salt and paprika. What is Garcia? The potato with Sarasa sauce was delicious. While eating, I felt like having the potato with anchovy sauce from Gamancho Blanc. They are quite similar, but Blanc wins. Potato salad was a mistake in choice. I got tired of just potatoes. Chicken with tomato sauce. The tomato sauce was delicious. The chicken was average or below. The service was chaotic as there were only two people in the kitchen and on the floor. But, I might go again.

I heard that the second store had opened, so I decided to visit. It was a Sunday, so there were only two customers at the counter. The interior of the store was very spacious. Since there were no customers, it felt even more spacious. Overall, the food left a delicious impression. The potato salad, in particular, was very tasty. However, the draft beer seemed a bit flat. Was the gas running out? Maybe a lack of maintenance? I ended up switching to wine! The wine was sold by the bottle at a reasonable price. Despite the lack of customers, I felt that the staff could have been more attentive. I recommend giving it a try!
