valencia Covington, review

we ate dinner for the first time there last night. It’s 1/2 block off E Boston next to the southern. I’m an easy grader but we were blown away
8pm on the porch, lovely
service 10/10, could not have been more friendly
atmosphere 10/10, definitely go for the porch
food, 10/10. We had the cold couscous salad, a bean and chorizo soup and the paella, and a pitcher of sangria Everything was outstanding and the paella and sangria rank among the best I’ve ever had
unqualified highest recommendation. Next time we will go with tapas

Glad you enjoyed it.
We had one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. It a shame because I had high hopes, but they'll never see another dollar from me.

when did you go
they’ve only been open 2 months I imagine there were kinks to work out
in any event, our meal was first class. We got there right after the dinner rush and it was perfect

We went and the food was pretty good but the service was not. Might go back some day. Hopefully the kinks are worked out.

round two last night
same table on the porch
mufongo gumbo, stellar
tomatoes and buratta, very good. The tomatoes were bursting with flavor
had to get the paella again
pitcher of sangria
stumbled to the southern and booked a room LOL
service/food/setting all A+
coerced the sangria recipe out of the manager:
-1 bottle wine
-1/4 cup each brandy, pomegranate juice, cranberry juice, orange Fanta, sprite
-whatever fruit you like
surprisingly I did some research afterwards and the Fanta thing is legitimate in Spain. Who knew. It’s very good

I loved it! My friend had the burger, fabulous! Mahi Mahi with rice was sooo good too! Everything was good!

Good review. Will check it out.

so the last few time we’ve been, Valencia hasn’t been as good at the first visit. Service has always been superior and that goes a long way but the food was inconsistent.
we went last night for the first time in a while and it was the best meal we’ve had there. Looks like the kinks are getting worked out, and it was full and lively. A table on the porch is still the best setting in Covington. Paella was outstanding and we also had the tortilla tapas and the watermelon salad, pitcher of excellent sangria.
Great date place

Porch even during the summer? Planning to go Saturday, but picked inside due to the heat.

Sweet. I'm on the Northshore so this would be a quick little 20 minute drive for me. Might check it out based on your recommendation! How is the seating inside?

it’s nice inside but a little loud an chaotic.
porch is more my speed, it’s comfortable there’s fans and a portable cooling unit
