• "The decor of the place is nice but it's not backed up with food or the attentiveness of the staff."

Service

• "The staff were very polite, though there were 2 items missed from our order which were applied to the final bill(resolved after mentioning it)."
• "Amazing restaurant! Beautifully designed and the tapas were incredibly tasty. The croquetas and the aubergine are a must. Meatballs and pinchos are great too. Desserts are yummy! Service was very friendly. Highly recommended."

Cons:

• "We waited 10 minutes at the entrance waiting to be seated. We had to ask to be seated chasing someone around the restaurant."
• "It took a while to get served, and the server almost walked away having only taken one person's order until we pointed out the rest of the table wanted to order."
• "Waited for 5 minutes to be seated at a table. Dirty seats and table. The wall next to the table was disgusting and moved tables. Again seats dirty, waited 15 minutes for someone to come over to take drinks order...no one."
• "Service was painfully slow. They weren’t overly busy, just wholly unaware of the existence of customers."
• "Food quite good, but the service was hopeless. Missing items from our order, ignored by the waiting staff and finally after waiting 30mins for coffee and it not arriving, asked for bill to find we had been charged."

Food Quality

Pros:

• "The croquettes were quite comforting with a very creamy filling."
• "The food was delicious, couldn't fault it at all and it came out quickly."
• "The paella was amazing. We didn’t leave anything on the pan. The tapas were good. The ambience is also quite nice."
• "Some delicious tapas, bacalao was firm and not overpowered by sauce, aioli was perfectly balanced, bread was light and very fresh."
• "The food was as expected for the most part. I would have liked a little more bread and a bigger portion of fries but other than that, no complaints."
• "Food was surprisingly good, tasty and very reasonably priced."
• "Some really good, full of flavour tapas here. Wasn't sure what to expect but pleasantly surprised."

Cons:

• "The potato bravas was okay, needed a bit more sauce. The prawns I thought would be deep fried so those were just okay."
• "The prawns were rubbery and bland."
• "The food was not testing and just warming up by microwave."
• "The omlete was a bit undercooked."
• "124£ bill & left to go eat a second dinner as the portions are TINY."
• "The paella was okay not too bad. The calamari was GREAT! I would recommend that."
• "The calamari portion was small and rubbery tasting."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "The cost is where things take a very positive turn. This is very convenient for a quick bite or lunch."
• "Everything one would expect from a tapas restaurant and more. Very good value for money when it comes to food which is not only delicious but the portions are also fantastic."
• "Food here is reasonably priced, and the paella especially is large and tasty."
• "Very good Spanish food, we ended up using it as a pit stop for the O2 travelling through Stratford International."

Cons:

• "The calamari was okay, needed a bit more sauce."
• "The menu was also impossible to read."
• "I felt the price could have been a bit lower other than that it was good. The meat is not halal here unfortunately."
• "The food was great even though they'd run out of 3 items which we wanted. Service was poor."
• "The paella was so overcooked that it got stuck to pan 🤦🤦🤦 the rice was so dry and the sea food was dry/overcooked as well."
