London | Hidden Treasure: A Spanish Restaurant in Mayfair
As London enters the darker winter months, the urge to escape to sunny Spain for some delicious food grows stronger. But who knew that in the heart of London's affluent Mayfair, there's a fantastic Spanish tapas restaurant where you can enjoy a feast without ever boarding a plane! 🥂 🍴 The lively atmosphere inside, paired with Picasso prints on the walls, makes for a perfect dining experience. The decor feels like an underground cave, and the ambiance is absolutely on point! 💯 When I visited on a Saturday afternoon, locals had booked several tables to celebrate, making it a great spot for a gathering with friends. ✨✨✨✨ · 🫑 Pardon - Spanish Padrón Peppers Classic roasted padrón peppers sprinkled with sea salt – a unique and delightful flavor! 🌿 · 🦴 Gambas al Pil-Pil - Garlic Shrimp Tender shrimp coated in garlic and olive oil – a true seafood lover's delight! ❤️ · 🐙 Pulpo al Pirata - Octopus with Potatoes The fried potatoes are incredibly crispy, and the perfectly cooked octopus is irresistible – you won't be able to stop eating! 🦑 · 🥩 Jamón Ibérico - Iberian Ham Marbled, smoky ham – a true Spanish treasure and a must-order! 🍖 · 🦑 Arroz Negro con Calamares - Squid Ink Rice The rich, creamy texture and the aroma of squid ink are incredibly surprising and delicious! 🥢 · 🍳 Paella Marinera - Seafood Paella The star dish! Generous portions, perfectly cooked, though the wait is a bit long (about 20-30 minutes). 🍛 · 🍹 Sangria A fruity wine-based drink that's sweet and refreshing – perfect for a light buzz! 🍇 ✨✨✨✨ 💰 Average Cost: £60 ⏰ Hours: Tuesday to Saturday (Booking recommended) #WeekendAdventures #LondonFoodie #HiddenGemRestaurants #OffTheBeatenPath #RestaurantRecommendations #AmbianceVibes #UKLife #OfCourseIDocumented #London #GlobalEatingSquad #DinnerTonight
