About the Show

Tablao El Arenal takes its name from the Arenal neighborhood in Seville between the Cathedral and the Guadalquivir river. The central location, just a few blocks from the Maestranza bullring, is within a typical 17th century Andalusian building which has been transformed into an intimate performance space in the style of the traditional tablaos. The venue has a capacity for up 110 guests and Tablao El Arenal holds two nightly performances which last approximately 60 minutes and feature some of Seville's best flamenco.

Founded over 25 years ago, several of the regular artists have won national and international dance awards. Tablao El Arenal has also been designated as the best flamenco show in Seville by the New York Times. The performance consists of seventeen different artists who cover a variety of the flamenco palos (styles), always with the dedication to offer a pure and authentic show. The performers’ inspiration comes from Curro Velez, former dancer as well as founder and owner of the tablao, who once said "I was born in Triana and I am a gypsy. What I present is truly authentic; the wealth of popular Andalusian flamenco culture that has taken on a universal dimension through those who share my blood".

The decoration and atmosphere in the main dining room is pure Andalusian. Several antique prints and flamenco posters line the walls, featuring themes typical of Seville such as the April Fair. Seating is around three quarters of the stage.  As a smaller venue Tablao El Arenal offers a good view from any location in the room.

Reviews

I want to give 200 stars if possible. From start to end it was a magnificent experience. Dinner was delicious, wine is good, staff is super professional and above all the stars goes to the dancers and singers. Music, rhythm, show was above any praise.
Nice, cosy place. Well worth having dinner before the show, excellent food and service! Show on its own - amazing!
The tapas were delicious and so different. A meal of tapas. The sangria was excellent. I've never had such efficient polite and attentive waiters. The Flamenco show had so much emotion. They could snap their fingers so loudly. Our table was one table away from the stage; you could see and feel the emotion from the music and the dance. When they added castenettes... wow. A real experience that shouldn't be missed. No pictures of the dance were allowed.
Food- The food was well made. It’s very vegetarian friendly. I really liked how the vegetables were cooked. Ordered the steak and ravioli. Steak wasn’t my favorite, but the ravioli was pretty good. 3/5 Service- The service was excellent. The waiters were very kind and didn’t rush us or take too long. 5/5 Atmosphere + Performance- The photos don’t do the venue justice. I loved the decorations and the lighting. It was very comfortable. The performance itself was incredible, and unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. I highly recommend if you are on the fence/deciding. My family loved it. Overall, a 5/5.
We travelled to Sevilla specifically for this experience. The staff waited on your every need. The 3 course à la carte meal was ok but the flamenco show was out of this world. So much passion and energy. Unfortunately you can’t take videos or photos but this made for more of a personal experience. We will definitely visit again the next time we are in Sevilla.
Excellent food and excellent performances. Guests with dinner gets priority seating followed by those ordered tapas. We had the 3 course meal and we were highly satisfied with each portion. We were full and enjoyed the entire experience
