    “Delicious food, probably the best tapas I have ever had. No ‘kids’ menu, normally fine but they didn’t have any butter to put on the bread I ordered for my daughter (she’s super picky) which I found a bit strange. Would love if she ate tapas but she refused. Food was great, all came out as soon as it was ready which made for a nicely paced meal, so much better than rushing through the food not chatting because you’re worried your food is getting cold. Only one small note on the menu - all absolutely delicious but we would have loved more vegetable options. We got the padron peppers which were exceptional but the only other option for a vegetable based dish was a salad which we just didn’t fancy.”

    “Busy little place, but the lovely hostess was able to find me a table regardless. Food was fantastic, quick to arrive, full of flavour and great all around. Service from Mariano was great, she was very friendly, efficient, and personable.”

    “A great little find. We will be back. In a group of 8 so a few of us to feed. I wasn't a Tapas lover until I visited here. The food was outstanding. All hot in temperature & cooked fresh. Nice that it doesn't all come out together, its as its cooked so stays nice & hot. Best squid I've ever tasted. So tender. Georgia was amazing, so helpful & attentive. All the staff were so on the ball & friendly. Thank you x”

    “We had a fab night celebrating my husbands birthday he loves tapas and Mexican so we were intrigued it was lovely. The dips and nachos need work that’s all everything else was lovely. The service was on point Charlie made the place from the warm welcome to recommending items on the menu even getting his lovely Dad the taxi driver to collect us!! The margaritas were ace and I’m not easy to please on my favourite cocktail! The girl behind the bar cared so much if we liked them we did. Xx”

    “Food was okay - I’d not be desperate to come back as felt there could be more flavours to some dishes. Appreciated the separate vegan menu.”
