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.

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

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.

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

Cute little place. Been in a few tapas restaurants here and in Spain and the tapas here are pretty darn good. Well presented and very tasty. Service was friendly and attentive. Will come back

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

Tapas are great and can get lots of food for a fair price. We asked the staff for recommendations and they didn't disappoint!

Duck eggs, flat white
Laura PacittMay 4, 2015
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.

Squid risotto is delicious.

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

Terrible service,, well below average food, but most worryingly shocking hygiene standards!!

Terrible service, weak menu and presentation
