The story
Casa Montaña is the kind of tapas bar that makes you want to book a return flight before you've even left. “An incredible place — absolutely the place you have to come to in Valencia,” says creator Cosa mangiamo oggi? in their first visit, praising “super simple dishes made with top-quality ingredients.” They spent €96 and ate heavily, vowing to return a third time. On a second trip, they called it “a fantastic tapas spot with incredible quality and fair prices, highly recommended.” The message is consistent: this is a València essential.
What gets ordered tells the story. The first round highlighted Tomates Pelados, Anchoas con Mantequilla, Ensalada de Patatas y Bonito, Molleje de Berenjena, Trambaca de Bacalao, Jamón de Bellota, Tocino de Cielo, and Tarta de Huesca — nearly the entire table earned a thumbs-up. The second visit brought Pepito de Titainas, Atún Marinado, Salmorejo, and a repeat order of Jamón Ibérico and Croquetas de Atún y Pimiento. Simple, ingredient-driven cooking that keeps people coming back.

AI summary of what 15 dish mentions say about the food
Casa Montaña’s Tarta de Huesca earns rapturous praise as a must-order, with the overall vibe described as warm, rustic, and quietly celebratory.
“I got it because it appealed to me, since it also had almonds. It's some kind of almond cream inside. Yours appeals to me a lot — first of all because it's much bigger than the one I got. The one I got, I could inhale through one nostril.”

An incredible place — absolutely the place you have to come to in Valencia. Super simple dishes made with top-quality ingredients. We spent €96 but we ate a ton. We'll definitely come back a third time.
Dishes mentioned
Tomates Pelados
They peeled these tomatoes. It looks like a super simple dish, and it is a super simple dish, but delicious. I could live on good tomatoes. The quality of the ingredients is already high, but without the skin they're even better.
Anchoas con Mantequilla
Anchovies with butter — this is their kingdom. When it comes to anchovies, it's hard to find bad ones here.
Ensalada de Patatas y Bonito
Tuna and potato salad — super simple. I want every dish to be like this.
Molleje de Berenjena
A little sandwich with aubergine cream on top and some crudités. Very good.

A VALENCIA: churros, tapas e jamon iberico 🦪🥂 · @ 3:41
A fantastic tapas spot in Valencia with incredible quality and fair prices, highly recommended.
Dishes mentioned
Pepito de Titainas
It is filled with tomatoes, peppers, tomatoes, lots of good things. Nice and warm. The stuffing of tomatoes and peppers, greasy just the right amount. I am very happy that I trusted the lady who recommended the dishes to take. You absolutely have to take this stuff here as a starter.
Anchoas
We took whole anchovies. Bread. Oil. Good. That's it. Just about clean. You've come to the right place. I brought myself to the right place. I also pat myself on the back, encouragingly. This is my kind of place. Saucers, good stuff.
Atún Marinado
Marinated bluefin tuna. Does it taste like Rio Mare tuna? Almost. The raw material is crazy, guys. Seasoned with an absurd oil. It is obvious that it is very good.
Salmorejo
This is Salmorejo, a cold tomato soup. With a pinch of garlic.
Jamón Ibérico
A platillo of Iberian jamon has arrived. I always remove the fat. What do you mean, you always remove it? Well, I unsubscribe. But I'm doing well this time around.
