Having read so many rave reviews i suggested this restaurant for a night out with my Spanish parents last night ( Tuesday ) and spent the majority of the way home apologising for what was quite frankly an expensive venture into the food equivalent of a placebo. There was nothing good to say about any of the tapas we ate, the only notable factor being the overly sized portions ( which i guess is their justification for the prices ). We were served muscles that were closed over, what looked like a large heap of calamares until we discovered that the majority of the heap was salad, prawns that had their taste cooked out of them, and a couple of meat offerings which were doused in spice to the point where i wondered if we had in fact booked an Indian in error. The only saving grace was the deserts which were well received all round. Expensive, bland, give it a miss!

This is one of our favourite eating places, the staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The food is amazing and is reasonable priced, great for couples or for groups. Guaranteed to have a great night.

We have been going to La Casa Vieja for many years now and always found the food to be consistently good. Our last visit was no exception. It's not really tapas, as the portions are large and cost as much as a full restaurant dish. This doesn't really matter, especially if there is a crowd of you and you can order lots of dishes. The specials board is always full of lovely fresh fish dishes. I had the scallops which were fab. The staff are always very welcoming too.

I went on Saturday evening and had a delicious selection of tapas. The staff were extremely quick to take my order but I didn't feel rushed and simply asked for more time. The food was excellent and the service was great. Seeing the owner gave the whole feel a more loving approach. There are too few restaurants like this in St Helens and I'm glad we finally have a few more choices than fish and chips.

La Casa Vieja

Decent authentic Spanish food with a very good menu. I found the restaurant rather cramped and the service not as attentive as it could have been. We also felt rushed to leave - to be honest it was a Saturday evening but I would have thought after spending £133.90 on a meal for 2 we would not have been rushed out at 9.15 within 10 mins of finishing our desert. That spoiled what otherwise would have been a very enjoyable meal. Bon Vivant

La Casa Vieja

This is one of the few restaruants where price really justifies the meal. This family-run restaurant is a must for anyone who loves, or wants to try, authentic Spanish food. You simply can't find any other place in the Merseyside area making the same tapas, mains and desserts. During our last visit we enjoyed a selection of tapas that were incredibly varied and delicious, from grilled sardines to patatas bravas, skewered monkfish wrapped in savory ham, and crusty bread served with garlic aoili. You'll be spoiled for choice with desserts - favourites are the Spanish bread pudding and an assortment of HOME MADE ICECREAM, HOME MADE fruit ices and lovely fresh fruit. This place is well worth the visit. Give yourself a treat, and give it a try. You will not be disappointed. No, I don't work for them, or owe them a favour - just love good food!
