La Sangria

The Spis take

A genuinely lived-in Spanish tapas restaurant near Holbergs plass, run by the same family (the Perez brothers) since 1992, and it shows: dim light, Spanish décor, pitchers of sangria and a steady parade of tapas plus paella and bacalao. It leans authentic and warm rather than polished, and locals rate it highly. One of the more characterful old-guard independents in this stretch of town, and a reliable pick when you want proper Spanish comfort over trend.
