Edited: this used to be the best and most authentic Spanish food in London. We used to come regularly, loved the food, drinks and staff. They closed from October last year and reopened a few weeks ago. We were excited and went, only to be really disappointed. We were the only guests on a Thursday evening. They had 2 waiters and a chef. The staff was not attentive at all and preferred standing outside at the back. We literally had to put our hand up each time tp order. The drinks were fine but the food very disappointing. They said it’s the same menu but they definitely took 40% off the menu. The portions got a lot smaller and the only thing that tasted good were the prawns. The bread used to be baked there and fresh. Now just very soft and no taste. The bocerones were half the portion and lacked flavour. The monkfish at around £20 was a small plate of some overcooked white fish pieces with some cooked potatoes. No flavour and the potatoes were the the best part (but still bad). I can continue but overall it’s just so disappointing how such a good place went so terrible with renovation, a new owner and new staff. Only nice thing is that it’s renovated and a bit cleaner but I’d take back the old look & rest. Bring back the old version as it was sooo...
Read moreDon't expect fancy and well presented tapas, just expect the Spanish style of tapas! Won't get instagram food but tastu food. Tl be honest this is the first Spanish restaurant I am not dissapointed with (I'm Spanish).
We were 4 and went only for tapas to share: Pulpo a la gallega: was expecting the potatos to be sliced instead of baby potatos chopped in two. However it was very good. Recommended ! We also had: Croquetas de jamón, Chorizo al vino (not that good), Patatas bravas, Calamares fritos with alioli (Spanish garlic mayo), Gambas al ajillo, Pimientos del padrón and Queso Manchego. Most of the tapas are around £5-£6. Tapas are not very big but all that food was enough for all of us.
I am sad I couldn't try the Ensaladilla Rusa (the run out)
Service is nice and friendly however I told the waitress that none of my friends are speaking Spanish but she kept...

A group of 20 people reserved one of the dining rooms they have, (they ask us for £150 for a reservation) so far so good.
We ordered 24 tapas and 1 cachopo (small and £25, and not good at all)
We decide that we will not order more food, to which the Colombian chef or worker comes down to reproach us that if we are joking and bla bla, how can it be that we order only that, well, ma'am, the food leaves a lot to be desired, what are you waiting for...
