Review La Paella - Los Angeles

Ling

Overall pretty good. Paella was nicely portioned and topped with plenty of seafood. However, I'd preferred the flavor to be slightly heavier and the rice to be even more crispy. We did order it "socarrat" but only got some crispy bits.

A great spot for authentic Spanish cuisine complete with a large assortment of tapas. Parking is really easy in this area, especially off the service road where the restaurant is located. Our server was really polite and helped us with menu suggestions as well. They really have a lot to choose from and it was hard selecting, because there were so many that we wanted to get. I started off with the Andaluz Gazpacho, and thought it was terrific. One of the better gazpacho‘s that I have had in a long time. Next we ordered some tapas. We ordered the Serano Ham, imported from Spain, the Chorizo, imported from Spain, the Agucate con Cangrejo which is avocado stuffed with Dungeness crab, and for the entrée, we chose to split the black squid ink Arros Negre Paella. We also upgraded to Bomba Rice, which I believe is a good call for an extra $4. The paella was really incredible, I have been to Spain a few times and have paella in many different cities there and thought this one was authentic as well as delicious. Overall a really great dinner especially if you’re a fan of Spanish food. I would recommend to anyone and definitely plan to be back in the near future to try more items.

This is a real Spanish experience. Everything was delicious. We ordered calamares a la romana, the best calamares I have ever had in my life, and I have been in Spain many times. Also, the mushrooms with chorizo well prepared. Their alioli is super addictive. We had an amazing Paella a la Valenciana accompanied with the best sangria. This is our second time, and definitely we are going to go back to try out other dishes.

A decent tapas restaurant in the middle of LA! Friendly staffs, nice homey ambience, wide variety of foods and a great red sangria! My recommendations; Iberico jamon, Paella Valenciana Mixta

Party of six. Four adults and two kids. We made reservations for December 24 at 6 pm. The restaurant opens at 5:30 pm. Our experience was well above excellent. Staff was very friendly, professional, and helpful. We had a lot of questions and the waiter answered them, while giving us some awesome recommendations. The paella plates, you can order a single person portion, two person portion, and even for three. The food was cooked to perfection. Good amount of shrimp, lobster tail, clams, Spanish rice, and some other fish. It was delicious. We ordered a few Tapas (Appetizers) and we had no disappointments there. We had a few beers, the waiter recommended tasting the Spanish beer, Estrella Galicia and Inedit. There was both so smooth. Best beer I've had so far. There is no private restaurant parking, you have to park in front or the side of the restaurant. You have to pay the parking meter (Free on holidays.) The parking meters are free after 8pm. It was an awesome experience. Definitely worth the trip!

I have a deep LOVE for LA Paella's food! My partner introduced me to this spot in 2011, and it's been our main go-to for our tapas cravings ever since! The paellas are delicious however, nothing beats the taste of hot seafood simmering in garlic chili pod oil while drinking your sangria. Some dish favorites are the garlic shrimp with heads on and off, calamari, spicy potatos, and the chorizo with mushrooms. Most of all, their wait staff is great, and very helpful with recommendations. LA Paella is highly recommended for date nights, family dinners or group outings.

La Paella Spanish Restaurant is great. The seafood paella here is outstanding compared to other restaurants that serve paella that we have tried. We added an extra lobster tail to our paella. The assortment of their meat dish for 2 is also very tender and tasty. Do not to forget the pitcher of chilled sangria that is laden with bits of fruit. I highly recommend La Paella a small home lime dining atmosphere. Reservation are recommend. Meter parking only.
