Restaurante A Banda Arroz in Santander

"One of the best Paella restaurants in the whole of Santander. They have the specialist rice and cook every paella fresh to order. The calamari is absolutely delicious and the whole experience is superb. I would highly recommend a visit here and make sure you try the traditional paella its out of this world. Lots of choices for all dietary restrictions"

"Amazing food and fab service. Worth booking. The place was heaving at lunch. Paella outstanding. Mussells and prawns to die for. Would recommend to anyone visiting area."

"Transport yourself to a taste of Spain at this delightful spot, where the paella steals the show! Each flavorful grain of saffron-infused rice, paired with a medley of fresh seafood and savory spices, creates a symphony of taste that lingers in memory. A paella perfection that deserves applause!"

"The waitress is friendly. She tried to communicate even though she doesn’t understand English. The food is nice and not expensive. I ordered the mixed paella, rabas and scallops."

"We had a lovely dinner last night all together. We got some fried squid as an appetiser, really tasty and then two portions of paella to share: one cantanbrica and one with just seafood. Amazing food for a really good price and our server was really polite and kind. The place could use a little remodelling but can’t recommend this place enough. Would visit again"

"Visited without a reservation, not long after they’d opened for the night (open at 8pm) and were the first through the door although there were locals sat on stools outside. Our waiter spoke very good English and was welcoming. The food arrived quite quickly and was delicious! We were persuaded to try the ‘best cheesecake in Santander’ and it didn’t disappoint. The Paella was the star of the show, and we didn’t finish it as it’s a very generous portion. The staff all seemed intent on checking that we were/had enjoyed, which we did. Go if you get a chance."

"Came here on a Thursday afternoon. They start serving food at 1pm. This place is a must go! Very tasty paella and service with a smile. Come here and you won't regret it!"

"Amazing food and service. We ate seafood paella which is absolutely delicious. All the staff are very kind and always serve you in a friendly manner."
