In the late 1800's, it was the sight of a busy "Horse and Carrige" Taxi Service which drew alot of traffic to the busy corner of West 4th and Charles Streets. In 1923, an entrepeneur took advantage of its location by establishing "Talk of the Town," a well situated Irish Tavern which quickly became famous for its burgers and beers. In 1941, Sevilla Restaurant, founded by a Luis Fernandez and Alfonso Uchupi, first opened its doors to the West Village. The restaurant still whispers hints of the old Irish tavern, with its murals adorning the walls, original bar and wood-cut ceilings all remaining intact. Mr. Fernandez later sold the business to a gentelman named Tomas Gonzalez (said to be a wonderful person to those who knew him) and his Basque partners two sons. Mr. Gonzalez ran the business for the next few decades. In 1967, he sold the business to Jose Lloves (then the chef of Sevilla) and his partner Antonio Rodriguez. Mr. Gonzalez remained as a waiter along side Jose Lloves for 30 years until he retired in 1985. In 1972, Jose Lloves and his brother, Bienvenido Alvarez, partnered and both have been running Sevilla Restaurant ever since. Together they have built a legacy that has surpassed all other Spaniard Restaurants and today the "Sevilla Restaurant & Bar" is privileged to be named the oldest Spaniard Restaurant in NY to date, serving new and old generations of clientel with perfection for years to come. This old bull still sill has fight and stands proud to be "The best". Read more
