Come dine in The Oldest Tapas Bar in Scotland Since we opened in 2003, La Tortilla Asesina has established itself as one of Inverness's most popular restaurants.

It has developed a unique selection of paellas, some classic spanish paellas and some original local paellas. We have developed paella into a dish for any taste and any occasion, including delivery!

We have a large range of tapas which you can treat as a meal, or as a starter to a meal. There are tapas to suit all tastes and we have some signature dishes that are unique to the restaurant, like our gambas pil-pil and our garlic chicken .. they have to be tried.

We also have a range of specialist drinks that you won't find anywhere else, like our range of sangrias. We go to a lot of trouble to offer an interesting and affordable range of Spanish wine to have in the restaurant or to take away.

Come and check us out

    Another delightful tapas experience, washed down with an excellent Albariño. This is a fantastic restaurant in the heart of Inverness, where a friendly welcome and delicious food choices, never fail to please. Thanks so much for another excellent meal.

    This is a lovely small very authentic Spanish restaurant! Everything we ordered (5 tapas bowls) were lovely except for our chicken in bread and garlic sauce (nothing wrong with it, just not to our taste) The waitress was quiet really never said anything to us, except to take our order, the waiter and (I think) owner were both lovely, smiley and chatty! I felt extremely relaxed and never felt hurried, although I did notice that when we declined desserts, the waitress seemed rather pleased as it was near closing time! Anyways, this did not put us off, and if we come back to Inverness (which I'm certain we will), I wouldn't hesitate to return!

    Restaurant was very busy but the staff were very friendly and efficient. We chose to have some tapas which was delicious all freshly cooked. The restaurant is small and it was pretty noisy as the ceilings are low but everyone was having a great time. Would definitely recommend.
