The tried-and-true tortilla de patatas is Spanish food at its best.
It can’t get much simpler. All you need are some potatoes, eggs, salt, onions (though that’s up for debate) and olive oil. This classic dish reflects the heart of Spanish cooking: how simple ingredients come together to make something truly delicious. That being said, there are some tortillas that seem to go above and beyond. We’re not sure what it is that makes these the best tortillas in Seville, but trust us! Here’s where you’ll find this Spanish dish at its best in the Andalusian capital.

Santa Marta
It’s no surprise that Santa Marta is home to one of the best tortillas in Seville. As this family-run bar’s current owner puts it, “we haven’t just been making it for 45 years continuously.
