Mixed feelings, to say the least. First impressions not great. You enter to a noisy bar full of city people. Restaurant is a bit better but still very noisy, don't choose if you going for a date. Service not great either, except for one girl that unfortunately was finishing her shift and getting us the table was the last thing she'd done. Hardly anyone making any effort not mentioning smiling. Management is appalling. We've ordered Padrón Peppers and they were literally raw. When we've asked the manager to fry them more, he's just said "they come like this"! 😱Very amusing comment especially that I was with 2 Spanish friends 😂 The rest of the food was very nice but pricey, especially for the size of portions. And that's were the good things finish. We've ordered London no 1 Gin - striking turquoise colour from gardenia flower. It was clear in colour as any random gin and had no garnish whatsoever. Manager, when asked about it, simply said "the bottle is turquoise, not the gin"! I don't have to mention it wasn't true of course. In the end we went to have our g&t literally next door Davy's Wine Bar. Should have come here in a first place - very friendly staff and...
Read moreLovely place, food was gorgeous, we had assortment of tapas. Obviously 5x more expensive than anything you'd ever get in Spain, but that's central London for ya!

Interesting serving of black pudding with spicy red peppers ( im used to mustard or horseraddish!). Definitely an interesting place to go with a bigger group of friends to try things out. Staff was really nice, though by the end of our meal we felt a bit rushed to had our table cleaned - but that was understandable as the place was really busy. It's not a very cameral place - had a lovely buzz, but we must've ended up sitting to some loud people as we could barely hear each other talk! Felt more like a bar than a restaurant in regards of noise level.
Portions are a bit smaller than regular tapas servings you'd find in the wild in Spain though so order up more dishes! We had 5-6 dishes between the two of us and we were sated by...
Read moreWent there last evening with colleague... it was a nice restaurant... but need some tweak for settlement and symmetry for tables, DJ needs to be in a proper corner... as I observer that some peoples wanted to do dance with their friends but due to limited space near to their chair and table they are not be longer lasting... also some of them have to stop to by pass the peoples from the way..... only after doing some settlement of tables and chair then can leave space for people to dance.... because they have dual view audience space i.e. audience can enjoy people's dancing from inside and out side of the restaurant which is rarely found... and by this they can attract more crowd....
