  “The food was amazing, my personal favorites we're definitely the tortilla, the fried squid, and the roasted squash. Padron peppers were a tiny bit too salty. Our server was Gemma and she was great. Made us feel extremely welcome and always had a smile on her face.”

  “Walked in without a reservation. Exceptionally attentive service and knowledgeable, friendly staff! Cute store and good ambience. Personally liked the prawn, tortillas and padron peppers. The pork was a little too greasy to my personal liking.”

  “A sunny spot to sit outside and enjoy some excellent tapas. I’ve just got back from Barcelona and it is on par with the better places I visited there.”

  “Food is very good. Staff great. Music excellent. Lighting correct. My only problem is with the cutlery. Tapas should always be eaten with small forks, as in Spain, and they should be kept in a small empty paprika tin. Call me fussy but the big forks kind of ruined it.”

  “The service is absolutely stunning here - very warm welcome, our server (whose name we didn’t get but who was phenomenal!) was very friendly and excellent at giving recommendations. We would return just for the service - we felt so welcome throughout. The food is very good although there is some variation in quality and flavour. The globe artichokes with quince aioli were a particular standout and among the best flavours I’ve ever had. Overall - the food didn’t massively wow, but the service won us over and we will definitely be back when we went a good tapas meal.”

  “Had an amazing experience here! Joe was very attentive, helpful and welcoming to us. The food was outstanding but I did not have the pictures of the best ones which was the prawn, Andalusian squid, and the tuna belly. Have to try these 3! And yes, the cheescake was delicious too, a mus try:)”

  “Visited for the first time last night; will definitely return. The food was fantastic, certainly very reminiscent of traditional Spanish tapas. Couldn't find a fault with any of it. I would personally recommend the Iberico with Chimichurry and the Tuna Belly. Those were our two favourite dishes. Good selection of wines. We went for a bottle of Rioja, good reviews on Vivino, thw bottle was marked up over the average price but nothing out of the ordinary to what you'd expect to pay at a restaurant. They also sell by the glass or a karaf. Service was quick, so if you want to spend more time at the table you can ask for the dishes to be slowed but they come as they're ready normally which suited us as we had to be back for our little one but they did say if it's too quick just ask and we'll space them out more. Service was impeccable. Very welcoming staff, warm and friendly, offered a choice of tables which best suited us although there were few when we arrived (around 6pm, Saturday evening). From what I can tell, there are no bookings and it's walk-in only but there's a bar area and some outdoor seating to use to wait or dine. The only thing that let it down was the brandy after dinner. It wasn't great. More like a cheaper young whiskey than a smooth brandy as far as digestifs go, that's the only reason for 4 stars rather than 5. Price was on the money for the area. Would recommend.”
