Disappointing.
Situated inside the Meliá hotel, L'Albufera is a posh paella-style rice place.
They won the Sueca prize for the best paella in 2015, so our expectations were high.
We usually go for the "senyoret", but the one they make here comes with chicken, which is not our thing.
Instead, we ordered the vegetable rice, which we knew was a risky choice.
What we were served, however, was worse than what we could have ever imagined.
Not only did it lack salt, but the ingredients (artichoke, cauliflower and green beens) had almost no flavor.
Our feeling was that they use low-quality produce because the tomato salad we had as a starter was similarly tasteless.

This restaurant was recommended by a local Spanish friend as the best place for paella.
We had a delicious paella, the atmosphere was amazing and the staff was friendly and helpful.
Thank you for the wonderful food and experience.
