I had stay for several weeks at the adjoining Apartamentos San Pablo and had the opportunity to have several lunches and dinners at Asador Picasso. At all times the staff was attentive and professional. Their choices of meats is one of the best in the area from different cuts of beef, to pork and even a very good hamburger! The presentation of the dishes was very good from the appetizers, main courses and desserts! Asador Picasso has a good wine list to compliment the food! I found the staff always welcoming and friendly!

Not to be recommended, the menu is black with white writing, in the dim outside lights it is difficult to read. The range of food is ok, but the quality on the night of our visit was poor. The meals came swimming in oil, tasteless but well presented, with the exception of the Tuna Salad, which consisted of a tin of Tuna on top of a pile of sectioned Tomatoes . We awoke the following morning with an overwhelming taste of Garlic.

Plateria

Enter our dining room and you can enjoy tasty dishes of the traditional recipes of Ecija, Seville and the whole center of Andalusia. In the restaurant of our hotel we have created a neat menu to offer authentic homemade food to all those who wish to enjoy delicious delicacies cooked with all the knowledge and love of the traditional cuisine of Ecija, Seville and the whole center of Andalusia. Our restaurant, not only has now become one of the few locals in Ecija able to satisfy the most select needs of customers, but also, it is the only one that perhaps can be proud to offer the best quality while maintaining its original time tradition at the same time. A unbeatable quality price relationship to enjoy every moment that passes between us in Hotel Platería. Dishes such as our "cod platería" or any of our fabulous iberian pork meats, beef or lamb. Also, we have an interesting offer with menus from 6.90 €.

We had lunch here. Wide choice, including very good salads and excellent home made desserts. Lady in charge spoke almost perfect English and helped with choices etc. Good decor and atmosphere. Wifi worked perfectly. Also good value. I don't know but suspect hotel would be good too.

Pasareli

Reviewed By pacobp101 - Valencia, Spain

We tried several places, which were supposed to be very good, in Écija that we didn't like so much but Pasareli was great in every way. The food was excellent, great Jamón, great cheese, we also had a nice revuelto and delicious eggplant with honey. For main course we had tuna ventresca, which was delicious, and beef with a hot plate for everyone to finish cooking it to its taste.
Service was fantastic, funny and very, very professional.
We will come back!

Restaurante Casa Machin

Reviewed By pacobp101 - Valencia, Spain

We had a business dinner and we ordered some Jamón, Lomo, Anchovies, Stuffed Peppers and then we had some main meat and fish dishes. Jamón and Lomo were ok, but far from much better ones we've had in Andalusia. Same goes for anchovies. Peppers were cold, cheese on top was supposed to be melted but wasn't and some spots were cold as if they had been taken out of the fridge and never left on the warming device long enough. Fish was overcooked, meat was decent. In my opinion there weren't enough reasons to charge almost 200€ other than the charm of the lady serving our table.

Reviewed By stakie - Leuven

We made a short trip from Cordoba to Ecija and were delighted not only by the nice town, but also by this fantastic restaurant. Prices were very reasonable (certainly comparing to Cordoba ciyt centre standards) and the quality of the food was very good. The waiters were very friendly as well.
In addition, you are having dinner in the middle of historic place...
Good food, not expensive, beautiful setting, cosy town, friendly and warm welcome... Certainly worth a recommendation I'd say

Bar la Reja

Reviewed By Castrogolfer - Castro Marim, Portugal

Based on the other reviews we felt that we MUST give this place a try. It is much smaller than we expected and only 3 tables with Seating for about 10 people total. The preference is for standing, sipping some wine (or small beers) and pecking at a few tapas. We were quite hungry and felt that there was not enough choice to satisfy our hunger. Perhaps we didn't understand what tapas is all about. However the next day in Cordoba we ate in another tapas bar and were delighted with their selection.
