Disappointed! The…read moremin I step foot in this restaurant was already a bad experience. We waited at the door for a relatively long time until someone actually noticed us. We politely greet whoever that come to us and ask how are they doing, but they just look straight into my eyes without saying anything - surely we need a table or we have a booking..? Not only did the first impression was bad, we weren't happy about the service the whole time. It took so long for them to notice us to order. They finally come and when it says "choice of..." on the menu, we thought we need to choose so we went ahead and let the server knows that we would like one of the choices. She answered with such a lecturing tone of annoyance that it comes with all the options. On top of that, they got the bill wrong and charge us the wrong amount and we weren't offered water at all. Seabass with pasta - fish is dry and burnt. although the cute flowery shaped pasta is a nice touch, it was tasteless and weird. Steak on fries - the steak is so over cooked and dry and the fries tasted like they have been seating on the plate the whole day. Anchovies on tomato toast with avocado - everything is so separated. You took a bite and everything fell off. Egg and Spanish ham on fries - it was sooooo oily and the oil soaks in the fries and make the already old fries worse. Fried goat cheese - this is the best we have had. Creamy and the apple crisps works very well with the cheese. A nice tough is the honey drizzle on top of it so it gives a nice hint of sweetness to it. Very nice. Sangria - very happy with the taste. Would recommend getting a jug because it will be finished before you realize it. Bad experience

I finally went up to ask if they planned to take our order. The guy looked genuinely surprised we were there. Understandable, though--I mean, who actually wants food at a restaurant on a Thursday evening, right? He did apologize for making us wait, so that was nice, I guess. Gambas = Good Croquettes de Manchego = OK Meatballs = Bad Patatas Bravas = Had better but still editable Olives = Kind of hard to mess up olives One nice thing about this place though, is they didn't automatically add a gratuity charge like a lot of restaurants are doing nowadays. As it would have been annoying to request, they remove it.

We had mixed greens to start, then shared the prawns served with fresh sourdough to finish off the delicious sauce from the prawns; and a side of broccoli.

Other items like the Patatas bravas are all pretty standard. Just remember even the Ribeye is a "tapas" sized serving.

Absolutely amazing restaurant. Coming from LA I'm used to enjoying mocktails so I was very happy…read morethat this restaurant served quite literally the best tasting and fresh mocktails I had in London. The sangria was refreshing and crisp even when I was the last person dining before they closed and luckily the fruit inside the sangria was still fresh! Before coming in I was disappointed with another restaurant and although I was unaware they would be closing soon the lovely hostess seated me and I was still able to get some amazing food. Great gluten free options for it being a Spanish tapas restaurant where most of the time they cook with a lot of gluten. The Spanish Octopus truly encapsulated the flavors of Spain. The mix of different spices engrained in the chipotle aioli sauce and the purée of the potato with the fresh crisp octopus was beyond. Manchego cheese and anchovies appetizer was also great although I wish the cheese came with more jam as whatever it was made of (it had hints of apple) was also phenomenal. Friendly staff and also great fun interior design (as I always appreciate a restaurant that has a nice ambiance). Would definitely love to come back and highly recommend for anyone to visit in London.

It was tasty but I'm not a fan of chicken thighs so I gave it to my husband. Ambiance was nice, if you're looking to splurge on a lunch, this is a nice one.

Their breakfasts were atrociously priced at something like £30 a day, so I didn't partake as I honestly can't imagine a breakfast being worth that price tag. But I came down on my last night for a glass of wine and a small bite (sans reservation but was seated right away in their bar). Small bites is the name of the game for suppertime as their menu is designed to share. It's also rather meat-forward, but they do have a vegan menu as well with some specialty items. I had the Margherita pizza which was very small but also the perfect size for me that evening as I wasn't very hungry. The wine list is impressive. Service was fine for my leisurely supper. The bar and restaurant were lively right up until closing. Absolutely fit my needs for the night.

When the actual dishes arrived, you can imagine, we were pretty excited. There was an array of spicy dishes of offer, meat, fish and something for veggies too. My brother ordered a chicken dish but the chicken was a little underdone, which was disappointing. Actually, overall, the food was slightly under par. Not to say it's awful, just didn't live up to the standards / expectations from what we had felt from sitting in the restaurant. This isn't the worst place in the world but I've had much better tapas meals elsewhere in London...
