Taberna Andaluza in Dortmund

Small but very tasty Spanish restaurant with a wide selection of tapas from vegetarian tapas such as grilled or stuffed vegetables, very good aiolidip with bread or delicious fish and meat dishes such as marinated anchovies, stuffed dumplings, crab salad or meat skewers. Afterwards a delicious 😋 dessert of.. flan, creme de Catalan.... The absolutely friendly and helpful service as well as the opportunity to eat with children (children's chair available - even if it gets a little louder for a moment 😉). It's best to reserve a table in advance, especially on public holidays. A little patience is usually required when looking for a parking space (after 6 p.m.). I can still absolutely recommend it and will eat there again...

We had a very nice and cozy evening. A tavern we heard of. Small, authentic, simple, cozy. Friendly service, excellent food. Definitely come back!

Been there again for many years. Nothing has changed. How nice:-)

Wohl das beste Restaurant in der Ecke Dortmunds - die Tapas sind sehr gut und Innneneinrichtung mit langen Holztischen macht auch etwas her. Die Bedienung ist zügig und freundlich. Nur die Preise sind etwas hoch. Lohnen tut der Besuch trotzdem allemal!

Great food! We tried everything on the menu and apart from the Pimientos de Padron and the red mojo, almost everything impressed us. Delicious potatoes, great aioli, great vegetables, shrimp and chorizo ​​espanol top. The bread was probably not homemade, but still delicious. Unfortunately, the chorizo ​​in red wine was too sour for us. Overall, a really solid and delicious meal! The wine spritzer is not recommended. Anyone who has already visited one or two tapas restaurants should be careful when ordering: the portions are relatively large! Accordingly, a really excellent price-performance ratio. Ambiance is rustic and cozy. The service was nice. Overall, a highly recommended restaurant!

Just great! Friendly, clean and the food was great. We'll be back very soon!

The food is super delicious. The service was very friendly. But since it is a very small restaurant and was full, the noise wasn't that great.

Delicious food, fast and friendly service. Unfortunately a very narrow and therefore loud rustic restaurant, difficult parking situation in the Dortmund city area

What a cracker of a tapas place.. great food, amazing service and excellent quality. Totally worth what we paid for the food. Had a lot of things to eat and the beers are also wonderful. Come here with family friends or on a date and you will love it. The ambience is rustic and the decor is cool.. great restaurant.

Wonderful experience. We traveled in a motorhome through Europe and looking for special places to eat well, we found the Taberna Andaluza in Dortmund, where we met Raúl, what a great person, we were able to chat for a while among the Spaniards that we are, telling him how well they had treated us, how comfortable we had felt and how well we had eaten.Thank you Raúl, we hope that life is great for you, you are a great person and professional.

We searched for a Spanish restaurant or tapas bar on Google... and came up with a positive response 😊very tasty. The fish plate and the sea bream were great. And the aioli really tastes like aioli and not mayonnaise. Gladly again .

This is my third year here during the annual trade fair in Dortmund. It's slowly becoming my highlight that I look forward to every year. And in this one week of the year I'm here 3 times, simply because there's nothing better for me 🥰 Crystal clear recommendation.

Incredibly attentive and friendly staff. The food is simply incredibly good

Great place, food is just great and the people here are super nice. Simply recommended.

As always, excellent and great service and Raul is a great guy 😉

A perfect evening with friends. As a starter we (11 people) had various tapas. Afterwards, as a highlight, a wonderful paella (pre-order!). The seating is extremely cramped and it is very loud in the restaurant. You have to deal with that. The service is extremely friendly and attentive. There is good wine and a good atmosphere. The shop is probably not for a romantic meal for two. But perfect for a delicious meal with friends. All of this at moderate prices. Absolutely recommended.

Very tasty tapas, nice service, the atmosphere should be a bit small and cramped but it has its charm 👌🏼😁

Very tasty, very nice staff, unfortunately very cramped rooms

Had an amazing time. Food was so delicious with fresh ingredients and the service was great. Can’t wait to go again!

We always enjoy coming here 1-2 times a year. The food is really good as always. My favorite food here are the grilled anchovies. We had a good time today from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Negative points are the tables that are too close together. If, like today, all the tables are full, you can no longer get out of the window seats, for example to go to the toilet. What's further negative is that you can't pay with a Visa debit or credit card but only with an EC card or cash.

Mit Abstand der beste Spanier weit und breit. Viel Platz gibt's nicht, dafür verdammt gute Tapas. Und nach dem Essen typisch spanische Kaffeespezialitäten. 11/10

Great restaurant with delicious tapas and great service. The ambience is a bit simpler, but fits the surroundings well. Highly recommended for evenings with friends.

I was in this tavern. Very tasty, small tapas. You feel like you're in Spain. Good quality fresh seafood. Delicious, large shrimps. The squid and octopus were also very tasty. The meat dishes also impressed with their taste. I recommend you try the peach with tuna. That was really delicious too. At the end we were treated to a sweet alcoholic drink, which was very pleasant. A great restaurant. Cozy. It's better to reserve a table as everything was full until the last seat. You can see that people really love this place. Pleasant atmosphere. Inside it's interesting, like a museum.

I would like to share my experience with Taberna Andaluzia, which unfortunately was anything but positive. We had reserved a table for 6 people a long time ago and traveled 60 km to celebrate a special birthday. When we arrived we were offered several tables in a narrow corner of the restaurant, so close together that it was almost impossible to sit down. It was anything but comfortable and we felt very uncomfortable, especially since it was a birthday dinner for my mother. When we asked the staff for another table we were told there was no other space available. We felt like we were on the sidelines and finally decided to leave the restaurant disappointed. Unfortunately we weren't even offered a solution or apology. I couldn't recommend Taberna Andaluzia more. And I think it's a strong thing to treat people like that and to give preference to other guests who weren't even there because of the profit.

Raúl always tries to prepare a meal that touches us. There is something for every taste, the homemade sangria: Ai ai ai. The selection of tapas is fantastic and I thoroughly recommend this restaurant.

A fantastic place where you can breathe Spanish food and atmosphere, you will feel at home. Super tapas!!!! Not to mention the desserts... don't worry Raul and Angelo also speak Italian very well.

Everything was great, great food!! :)

It was a great evening with delicious food!

A very relaxed with ambience with very good food! And a big thank you goes to Raúl. A very cool guy!

It was very, very tasty, especially the prawns were great. PS: Raul, best man ✌️

Tested on recommendation. Very tasty, great service, authentic atmosphere! TOP price-performance :-)

The food is great, the atmosphere is ok. Small room that is very cluttered.

Everything was exquisite, and Raúl's treatment was unbeatable. We will return without a doubt.

Very tasty as always. And very cozy with the charm of an old restaurant.

Too narrow, too loud and mediocre food.

Quaint restaurant. Delicious food. Great service.

I ate tapas here for the first time. And it's fantastic. It was really so good that I now want to come here more often. Andaluza is a really cute shop with the best service, good, very good food and a great atmosphere! Really 5/5!

Very nice restaurant! Been here for the first time and I'm thrilled! Raúl was super nice and even sat down with us at the end and chatted with us. If you like Spanish food, you're welcome If you have a nice atmosphere and want value for money - this is the place for you!

Great Spaniard, we've been going out to eat for ages 😊 Raul would be happy to see you more often 👀 Kind regards 🖖 Musa

A real pearl! Cozy atmosphere, super friendly staff and the tapas are a dream! In my opinion, the champions in garlic, the breaded aubergine and the patstas bravas should not be missed :D I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Dortmund or the Taberna Andaluza! A big thank you to the team

Thank you for the lovely evening. Top service, top food, great atmosphere.

First time here definitely not the last time 🍀🍀🍀🍀 Raúl the best in the place

Always perfect food and good service. Absolute recommendation, keep it up!

One of the best restaurants in Dortmund. It has always been known beyond Dortmund's borders as a tapas bar. Compared to other chains, the price performance is the best you can eat. The cheapest prices paired with the best food. Angelo and Raul thank you for the lovely evening

Super Essen, super Personal und das wichtigste die Preise stimmen. Es hebt sich ab von jeder Tapas Kette, weil preis und Leistung einfach einmalig sind. Am besten eine Woche vorher reservieren, damit man einen Platz bekommt.

Being spanish I must say that the place it’s quite good. Raul, the waiter, it’s awesome and a great professional. Good place to come again and again.

"The Spanish restaurant Taberna Andaluza offers an excellent selection of traditional dishes. The tapas were fresh and tasty, and the sangria was a delight! The atmosphere is cozy and the staff in this case Raul were very friendly and accommodating. A perfect place for a relaxing evening with friends. Highly recommended!"

Great, tasty and fresh tapas! Very tasty dessert.

Das Lokal ist klein, die Tische stehen eng, es ist laut, man lernt schnell die Tischnachbarn kennen. Keine Bar für ein Bewerbungsgespräch, sondern eine echte Tapas Bar mitten im Dortmunder Norden. Die Speisekarte ist typisch andalusisch, es kommt auf den Tisch, was die Karte verspricht. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt.

Ausgezeichnete Tapas, super Service, uriges Ambiente. Sehr zu empfehlen! Wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen und das trotz längerer Anfahrt!

This is how I imagine a good Spaniard. Simple furnishings with a focus on the food. Delicious! Staff very nice and attentive. Clear recommendation...important! Reserve a table. But spontaneous guests will not be turned away either.

Das Essen war frisch und gut zubereitet. Der Service war freundlich und aufmerksam. Die Tapas haben uns gut geschmeckt. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Very good food and nice atmosphere. The tapas are delicious and authentic. The service was friendly and quick. A nice place for a relaxing evening.

For me, I like a good Spanish cuisine restaurant. The dishes I tried were quite good, the gazpacho very good and the cuttlefish quite good.

I ate paella here, it was a piece of Spain, tapas beforehand, everything was very successful, the atmosphere was positive, recommended!!

The seafood rice really delicious. Service was friendly and great too, highly recommend! It's right off the beach at Cascais

Very tasty dishes. The price-performance ratio was also right. I have known the restaurant for 30 years and have always been satisfied. A path that is worth it.

Best Spaniard in Dortmund, period.

You have to go to this restaurant: great atmosphere, jam-packed and super delicious food. You almost feel like you are in Spain. Everything is freshly prepared and the price is absolutely reasonable. However, it is advisable to reserve in advance as it is quite busy throughout the week. The staff is very friendly and you don't have to wait particularly long for your food.

A certain Raúl mentioned his name so often and made hospitable attempts at bribery that unfortunately bounced back on us. I have to tell him that the food was very much to our liking, so we will definitely come back. Please keep it up. Visit from July 10, 2024 Unfortunately I forgot to take more photos. It was such a cozy round!

Very nice little place in the wooden style of a pub. Very nice and attentive staff. Top food at fair prices.

Good food, good atmosphere and very nice staff. I recommend grilled squid and sangeria (red).

Very original, very warm, very tasty. Price performance top

Spanish food, as authentic as it can be outside of Spain. Tastes good, is affordable, the atmosphere is great! And when Raúl comes to the table for a chat, things get really entertaining. Absolute recommendation! I'll definitely be happy to come back regularly ;-)

Great tapas, authentic atmosphere, friendly staff. Enjoyed it very much. Reservation required!

As always wonderful, The absolute highlight is meatballs in tomato sauce. Raul best service as always!

As always everything was great! Raul, you just have it

Authentic tapas shop with super tasty food at affordable prices. What more do you want? Correct: nothing. 5/5 stars👌🏼

A quaint, original restaurant with delicious food at comparatively affordable prices. We'd love to come back!

If you're looking for authentic Spanish food, this is definitely the place for you. It looks and tastes like Spain. My boyfriend and I went in and immediately felt comfortable. I haven't eaten better in the Dortmund area - i.e. at the Spaniard. Best shop ❤️

Worth an experience and great selection of food! Went there this Friday evening and it was really delicious. The service was really super friendly and attentive! We were served very nicely and quickly! A bit old-fashioned, but that's probably the Spanish flair! Happy to come back!

An absolute must for those who love tapas. Great selection, great taste and all in a calm and authentic atmosphere. The service is great - special thanks to Raúl - a super host!

Super delicious food. Really great owners and employees. Great ambience at sensational prices. I can really recommend it to everyone. Real Spain in the middle of Dortmund!

Raoul, you're a cool guy. 🙃 Thank you for the lovely evening, the great food, the hospitality and the Cohiba cigar. We'll definitely be back...we promise.

Very good service and delicious food. Outdated atmosphere but still recommended.

We are very satisfied, it was super tasty and the hosts were friendly, competent and entertaining. The food was absolutely satisfactory and definitely recommended. Thank you very much Raúl, for the lovely evening in a great, urban atmosphere, we will be back 🤗

Formerly THE cult Spaniard in Dortmund's Norderstadt, when the Nordstadt was still a cult anyway. She isn't anymore, is she? At some point the taberna came down and was really bad. 12 years ago or so. Haven't been here since. Now tried again. And lo and behold: the ambience and the good food are back! Had a pleasant evening with very good food. Keep it up!

Best Spaniard in the area. I've been going there for 17 years.

Very tasty Spanish authentic cuisine. The service is great and very personable. The selection of tapas is very extensive and varied, so there is something for everyone. In my opinion the best Spanish restaurant in Dortmund!

Finally a Spanish restaurant where there is also a Spaniard! Thank you Raul and team

Very cozy, lovely place with fantastic food! Raul's professionalism and hospitality made our evening perfect. If you are unsure about the choice, trust yourself!

An original Spanish tavern straight out of a picture book. The rich and delicious selection of dishes is served by a friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Unusually delicious food at fair prices in a harmonious atmosphere with great service from a committed and friendly team.

Everything about this store is wonderful! The food, atmosphere and especially the host Raoul are truly unbeatable. I can only recommend anyone who loves Spanish tapas to take a trip to Dortmund's Nordstadt soon to enjoy an unforgettable evening. A little tip: be sure to reserve 😉

Raul, nice to have you back! ;) From a short visit to our absolute favorite shop. 100 percent recommendation not only in the northern part of the city but also the best Spaniard in Dortmund.

For me, the Taberna Andaluza is the perfect fusion of Ruhrpott and Spain! The rustic charm of the Ruhr area meets the lively atmosphere and delicious flavors of Spain. The tapas are a true taste experience and reflect the authenticity of Spanish cuisine, while the ambience captures the spirit of the Ruhr area. But the heart of this restaurant is undoubtedly the boss - an excellent host and a true Dortmund original with a passion for good food and down-to-earth hospitality. Whether you are a local Ruhrpottler or come from further afield, the Taberna Andaluza is an absolute must! Here two worlds merge to create an unforgettable culinary experience. I'll definitely be back!"

Raul has enjoyed having you in our neighborhood for 20 years. A super delicious restaurant can only be recommended. Angelo is part of the inventory and is also a very sweet and nice person. Convince yourself and take a look :)

Absolutely great! I've never had better tapas outside of Spain. Really great service and a great team. Extremely attentive and friendly. A special thanks to Raul!

I'm really excited! There is an incredibly varied selection of extremely delicious food. Cold and warm dishes, delicious wine and a cozy atmosphere. The service is quick and friendly even though the store is full. Thanks for this great local! And this Raúl is definitely a cool guy! 😊✌🏼

We are totally thrilled. Super nice service staff, great food and an excellent price-performance ratio.

I was there with my wife last night, it was just lovely, delicious tapas, super nice service and just a really cozy place 👍👍👍 kind regards from Selm, my dear Raúl

Incredibly narrow seating, seems a bit old and run down. As soon as you enter the location, there is an extremely pungent smell of fish (and as we all know, fresh fish does NOT smell). The bread turned out to be a Turkish flatbread, including white and black sesame. Just to clarify: I have no problem at all with delicious Turkish flatbread, but not in a tapas bar. Aioli okay. The other dishes all seemed to have been prepared in the same deep fryer, everything tasted somehow like old fat, the pork loin came raw the first time, the second time unfortunately still raw on the inside, but charcoal type on the outside. Unfortunately, the sheep's cheese also turned out not to be gratinated cheese, but rather a kind of "sheep's cheese soup", all very runny. Dishes that were ordered again were sometimes forgotten, but were later found on the bill, then it was discovered that these things had probably been brought to another table by mistake. This can happen, but it is part of the not good overall impression. I have no idea how people here can comment that it was "the best Spanish food ever", I have never eaten worse tapas anywhere. However, the service was very friendly and tried hard to resolve the complaints. The price is actually cheap, but in my opinion the quality of the food is really poor and it's actually too expensive for that.

Fantastic cuisine! Great selection of tapas, friendly and attentive service. What can come quickly comes quickly, and what has to be freshly prepared doesn't take long either. Aioli = Best!

Fantastic authentic food and great service. Special praise goes to Raúl ❤️

The atmosphere was very original and was reminiscent of a youth hostel. The food was freshly prepared but it didn't live up to expectations.

We were very positively surprised, the food was very tasty, the service was very nice and we paid very little compared to other tapas restaurants (€135 for 6 1/2 people with several drinks)

Super tasty, great service. Cozy atmosphere. The food was brought super quickly. Thank you

The personnel is very friendly and courteous. Works very quickly and has everything under control. The food is very good. Although the restaurant was very full shortly after opening, it didn't take long until the food was on the table. It is better to reserve a table.

This is a super authentic tapas bar in the middle of the northern city. The food and wine are fantastic and the atmosphere is unique!

The tapas shop is very comfortably furnished and invites you to linger. This is of course also due to the delicious tapas. There were four of us and we ate our way through the menu. Everything is super tasty and fresh and above all for a great price! The service is very warm, funny and personal. Thanks to Raúl for the nice service (I kept my promise :)) We always enjoy coming here :)
