Warm, family-run tapas spot with standout garlic prawns and paella, great value and a cozy terrace—but cash only and waits/reservations are common.
La casita de Taby delivers solid neighborhood dining through strong food quality anchored by exceptional garlic prawns and well-executed paella, paired with warm, attentive service that makes guests feel remembered. However, inconsistent execution on certain dishes and leisurely pacing prevent grade A territory, while the charming rooftop terrace and good value position it competitively among local favorites despite the cash-only quirk.
Up a flight from the street, the terrace glows with string lights and an easy holiday buzz—warm and welcoming. Staff greet you like friends, pace plates in relaxed waves, and someone will likely suggest the prawns. One diner said the prawns were so good they "cleaned the bowl," and more than a few were turned away at peak times, so book ahead. Note the house quirk: cash only. Cooking leans classic Spanish—tapas first, then paella—familiar flavors done with care rather than theatrics. Expect garlic-forward prawns, crisp patatas bravas with multiple sauces, a bright tomato with goat cheese, and paellas cooked to order. It is a leisurely meal by design; great with sangria and conversation, less so if you want speed. Most plates win praise, though the odd seafood platter or pork dish reads simpler than expected. For families, this is kid-friendly comfort: omelette, chicken fritters, fries, and mild tapas make easy picks. Custom paellas (meat-only or veg-only) have been prepared on request, and portions on sharers are generous. There is no formal kids menu, but the menu’s simplicity works well for younger diners.
