About La Riuà

La Riuà cooks Valencian rice on Calle del Mar, in a dining room of wooden beams, old photographs and Manises plates on the walls. The kitchen keeps to the family recipe: paella valenciana, rice with its socarrat crust, seafood melosos and its own broths, with starters from the huerta and the sea. Open Tuesday to Saturday, 2pm–4pm and 9pm–11pm.
