About this spot
Cavataria brings authentic Spanish warmth to Amsterdam's Oud-West neighborhood with a menu anchored by generous portions of paella and crispy tortilla española. The open kitchen buzzes with the same lively energy found in Madrid, where diners gather around communal tables to share plates of jamón ibérico and seasonal tapas.
💡 Tips before you go

- Save room for a side of patatas bravas, which are served with a spicy romesco sauce that pairs perfectly with the seafood rice.
- Ask the staff to recommend the day's specific fish selection for your paella to ensure peak freshness.
