The best tapas I have ever had. The place is cozy and homey. Location is away from tourists areas. You can order anything and you will like
Group of 11 booked for a celebration. Including several foodies who love Spanish food. Absolutely delicious and authentica!! Great service, nothing was too much trouble. A great party was had by all. Gracias
Food is amazing! We had the russian salad, ham croquets, pan tumaca, chorizo in cider and tortilla. A bit pricey but ok, location and food quality make up for it. They also serve really cold Estrella Galicia! Great atmosphere, helpful staff. Will be back many times for sure!
I’ve eaten here a few times, including this weekend just gone, had an absolutely fabulous time, the food was great, the service warm and friendly and on a hot day, highly recommend the red sangria which goes down a treat! In my humble opinion this is one of the best tapas bars in London!
Very good tapas. Everything was so tasty and well prepared. I would definitely go there again. I recommend this place.
Excellent delicious REAL tapas We visited three times this week and were not disappointed. My girlfriend's sister was visiting us from Spain (Bilbao). Where do we start - arrived around 2pm and found a quiet table at the back in their garden. Delicious Negroni to kick off and immediately ordered the morcilla, Padron peppers, ham croquetas & pan tumaca. Nerea & Aran loved everything - the black pudding (the good stuff with rice, garlic fried bread) was the best we've tasted in a long time. To quote them both - "this is the best tapas we've ever had in London" A few days later we came to try the Sardines, patatas bravas, Whitebait and Calamari & salad russe - all dishes were fresh and tasty. We will be back on a regular basis for more delicious, authentic Spanish food. Gracias Maria !
Very nice Saturday lunch. Lovely home made Basque pintxos and friendly owner. My favourite today was Pan Tumaca (toasted bread with garlic and tomatoe) and Gildas (tradicional for north of Spain pintxos made usually with olive, salty anchovies, spicy green pepper and pickled gherkin). We've also had mushroom croquetas, goats cheese bites, padron peppers and gambas al ajillo. All very flavoursome. Great little place with good vibe where you can try authentic Basque deliciousness. Well recommended
Lovely Spanish tapas in East Dulwich. Really friendly, attentive staff. Oysters were delicious, as was the cake!
