Ultracomida is a lively Spanish deli-and-tapas spot with strong food, generous plates, and a memorable communal vibe; book ahead and go in expecting a slightly premium bill for small plates, not cheap grazing.
Ultracomida earns a solid A- grade through very good food quality and reliable execution that keeps repeat customers returning. Strong authenticity in Spanish tapas and knowledgeable service on wine and cheese elevate the experience, though occasional service lapses during busy periods and mixed value perceptions prevent a higher grade.
Ultracomida feels like one of those places locals and holidaymakers both end up defending with a grin: part Spanish deli, part tapas room, part wine stop, with communal tables that turn lunch into a bit of a social event. Reviewers keep circling back to the same feeling — relaxed, welcoming, and quietly special — with lines like the place being a “little discovery” tucked behind the shop and a stop they return to “whenever we’re in the area.” The cooking leans firmly Spanish and regional rather than flashy, with croquettes, padrón peppers, octopus, anchovies, pork, cheeses, and charcuterie doing the heavy lifting. It’s the sort of menu that rewards ordering a few things and sharing, especially if you like proper ingredients and wine alongside your food. This is not the sort of place for a conservative, fill-me-up-for-a-tenner dinner; it’s better suited to people who enjoy grazing, conversation, and a slightly premium bill for the privilege. Families can do well here if the kids are happy with simple Spanish basics: pan con tomate, croquettes, chips-style potatoes, sandwiches, churros, and cheese plates are all realistic options from the menu. But it is still a tapas-and-deli setting, so picky eaters who want standard kids’-menu food may struggle, and the communal seating won’t be ideal for every family. Good for adventurous families; less so if your children treat garlic or octopus like a hostile act.
