Olé Spanish Restaurant

The kitchen handles paella well—Valenciana, Marinero, Mixta, and Arroz Negro rotate through the menu, all 4600–4800 AMD. Seafood is grilled (dorado, lubina, pulpo a la gallega), not particularly cheap at 7200–7800 AMD for mains. Tapas range 1400–2700 AMD (pan tumaca, patatas bravas, jamón croquetas). They stock jamón ibérico platters and Spanish cheeses. Lunch menus (2400–3500 AMD) cover crujiente, marinera, cordobés, madrileño, vegetal, and valenciano.
