Food Quality
Pros:
"Delicious and creative tapas (different from those you usually see in other places), very good value."
"Had a set menu of four mini tapas and all delicious - the marinated fig and goats cheese on crunchy sourdough was the best dish."
"The food was obviously very delicately made and presented."
"Food is excellent, love helping yourself to the pinxos."
"The food is delicious, sangria is the best in town."
"The food is authentic Spanish and very good value for money."
"Top notch Tapas fresh and delicious they are frequently replenished which is just what you want."
Cons:
"It also worked out pretty expensive for a moderate meal."
"Food: Nothing Special."
"The tortillas slices were dry."
"The cold dishes didn't really offer much. I found them to be a little bland and unexciting."
"Quality of food is very poor."
"The hot food definitely didn't taste fresh."
"That is neither Spanish food nor pintxos. That is not even food."
Service
Pros:
"The waiters were super nice, friendly, we followed their recommendations and we didn’t regret that at all."
"All the staff were lovely and looked after my 86 year old mum with great humour."
"Service is absolutely wonderful."
"We always have a waiter or waitress looking after our table."
"The staff were very accommodating and created a fun and relaxed environment."
"The staff were friendly when we arrived early."
"The staff are always super warm and kind, which makes a huge difference."
Cons:
"Additionally, the attitude of the long-haired Spanish waiter lad did not contribute positively to our experience."
"The waiter was unpolite and some odd behaviour."
"Having only one server attending to six private rooms proved to be highly inefficient."
"It took 15 minutes for our waiter to remember us and give us water after seating us."
"The service was completely inattentive."
"Uncomfortable seats, overpriced drinks and a very bad service."
"Most terrible service in Soho."
Value
Pros:
"Sunday all you can eat tapas and unlimited prosecco for 90 minutes at £33 is a steal."
"The price is really affichable."
"Inexpensive for central London and great laugh."
"It’s essentially a ‘help yourself’ to a variety of authentic Spanish tapas."
"The price is reasonable as well."
"More than affordable price and high quality."
"The prices are incredibly reasonable for anywhere in UK!"
Cons:
"The people working here tried to double charge my group."
"Bill came to £170 which shocked us, I guess everything adds up, but very pricey."
"The drinks are extremely overpriced even for London."
"Put it this way, I could get a Chinese food banquet for 4 people in Chinatown for the same price as two cocktails and a few nibbles for two at this bar."
"All considered, the place ends up being poor value for money."
"It's expensive (or not good value) service charge is added automatically, when you collect the food yourself."
"Absolutely extortionate."
Ambiance

"Yes it can be busy and crowded, but that is the Basque way so live with it."
"The place gets busy and noisy. It is good fun."
"Enjoyable tapas spot. Crowded and energetic this cozy resto has a lot of charm."
Cons:
"They have tried to cram in seats anywhere possible in an already tiny space."
"Everyone walking past is about an inch away."
"The tables are quite small and the back of the restaurant is too dark for me."
"The table for two is too narrow and the table spacing is too close to match the corona era."
"The seating is very close and a bit uncomfortable."
