Everything was lovely, especially the pulpo and tuna tataki . I am very particular about the way I like tortilla and I found this one a bit bland. Overall I would recommend this place.

Nacho Silvestre

Order Carrillada and Atún, the best dishes by far. House white wine is pretty good as well . Good and quick service !

Irene Aurovsky

Eggs Royale was one of the best meals I’ve ever had in the world (I travel)! Plus I had 3 of the seafood tapas each dish was perfectly cooked and I will carry the tastes in my memory forever.

Daren Williams

High quality tapas in a casual but trendy setting, with friendly staff . Best dishes we tried: croquettas , tortilla , and presa with rice !

I was here for the breakfast . Very good the dish with egg , salmon and avocado . Also very nice granola with red fruit and the fresh juice apple and giver!

Great tapas and wine . We usually go for two dishes per person and then share. Padron peppers , patatas bravas and huevos rotos are all phenomenal

Duck eggs , flat white

Laura Pacitt

Food was far too salty, would be great to be able to chose re salt. Overheard a waiter joking about getting the wine from Aldi or Lidl - I'm sure this was a joke but still raises some questions.

Food was OK. Service wasn't great but we spoke to the manager and he took the drinks off the bill.
