Reviews
Second time at this place, we came here for dinner.
The place is nicely decorated and reminds you of Spain.
As we came on a Saturday night, the place was fairly busy and a little bit noisy (but less than other places in the city).
The staff was either neutral or nice.
The experience could be much better if it wasn't for the food, which is what you crave for when dining out.
We ordered seafood paella, croquetas, shrimps, patatas bravas and a vegetable tapas with mushrooms.
Everything was decent/ok, the paella had zero taste. I also tried the seafood alone and it actually tasted bad.
Maybe it was just a busy night, but they could definitely do a better job.
Looking for some nice food in Manchester on an early Saturday evening and this came up as recommended top of the list, off the main street.
Absolutely perfect choice - tapas, small plates, paella , your choice of lovely foods depending on how you're feeling... Just tick on the menu sheet.
The lentil broth soup with sausage was just amazing, one of the nicest foods I've had all year.. ribs were just mouth watering.
Lots of signed football t-shirts and photos on the wall add to the ambience.. really friendly staff and front of house.
Ordered the pulpo a la gallega (octopus) and paellas.
Tasted really good 👍🏻👍🏻really enjoy it.
A good choice. Once you enter the premisses, you realize you're in a traditional homey Spanish restaurant. The food is homemade, and all you ask for will be very good. I reckon it is as good as being in Malaga despite the weather outside. The owners and team are welcoming and can advise good options if you are not used to Spanish food. The service takes a little bit of time, but it is worth it because good food needs good timely preparation.
Really a huge fan of this fantastic Spanish restaurant. Tapas especially oxtail is great đź‘Ť also a good value of money
A great place to have a few drinks and a couple of tapas after work in Manchester.
A must try in Manchester city center for Authentic Spanish tapas. The atmosphere at El Rincon de Rafa feels like you have been transported to Spain, fantastic atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food and sangria jugs.
Speaking of food, menu offers plenty of tapa options and great portions. (3 tapas per person is more than enough, trust me!)
incredible experience! place is a little hard to find but you feel like you’re in spain…the atmosphere and food are extremely authentic vibes are just 10/10. highly recommend the pan catala and ham croquetas! special shoutout to the lovely waitress who told us we ordered too much at first and told us to cut down…she was certainly right! very motherly vibes she was amazing
