    Absolutely amazing place, this is a great date night spot with authentic tapas. My husband and I have pretty much ordered every tapas on the menu as well as the patella and have never had anything bad here. It’s an upscale restaurant so will say wear something nice.

    The paella was excellent and the portion was quite generous. Our waiter was informative and very fun to interact with. Valencia has become our new favorite restaurant in Covington. One can tell the owner & manager take pride in creating a great experience for their guests. Thank-you.

    Reservation for 730 on a Saturday. Out by 922. Felt extremely rushed from the start. Server was constantly at our table, overhearing our conversation. Charged a service fee on our credit cards with no explanation or reason. Music was turned off in our dining room, obvious ploy to get us out. Food was fantastic. Drinks were too. Will come again but hoping for better service.

    Our table of was served promptly and the staff was very attentive. The food was beyond excellent! The paella was definitely worth the wait, but you can call ahead and have it waiting for you.

    We have been here a few times and have had both paellas, which are both delicious although I prefer the squid ink. This time we ordered the Valencia burger and it was outstanding. Cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious! The Rojo sangria is outstanding! We love the whole vibe of the place, small moderate noise, but not too loud for conversation.

    My birthday is close to Christmas so I don’t get to celebrate it. But my friend took me there. The whole experience made my birthday lovely. The food was in my opinion some of the best I’ve ever eaten.
