Spanish place the environment was okey, you can sit at the bar they have the kitchen open so you can eat while you see how the cooking everything, the food was really nice really good quality i lack i bit of quantity but still okey. If you want to get some good tapas that’s the place for sure.

This was the best tapas I have eaten in the UK! Highlights were oysters which were absolutely delicious, the garlic prawns, and the anchovies. We had a really lovely bottle of orange wine and cocktails were great too. The service was good although I don’t think anybody checked in and asked how the food was whilst we were there, so if we had a complaint we wouldn’t have had the opportunity to give feedback. This being said, the food was near perfect so it wasn’t an issue

Great tapas and paella. They have different varieties of paella and the portions are huge! Good service and nice cocktails too.

impeccable service and very nice ambience too. rather limited choice in the food & dessert menu (better check their online menu before going - I was taken for surprise lunch and being a rather picky eater I felt rather constrained in choice). I had jamon iberico, and butternut squash and chickpea salad - both were good. my partner had the pulpo and he enjoyed that too.

Seating at the bar/kitchen is dinner and a show. You can see how the kitchen is run and everything is made. The food is some of the best we had in London.

Spanish restaurant at a lovely location, however… We ordered multiple dishes, including chipirones, which seems like a pretty large portion on the plate, but the actual baby squids are so tiny that what you are mainly tasting is the paneer only. Patatas bravas are not bad, but didn’t rock our world, the dipping sauce could do a bit more flavour. Gambas al ajillo is a great price-value dish, and quite tasty, and the oysters are lovely too. The grilled octopus had a perfect texture and the white beans purée was absolutely amazing. The thing what we found as a huge problem with pretty much all dishes is the salt. We found everything way too salty. Rock salt is all over the dishes, and as we sat by the counter, we saw the cook not to use salt on the octopus at all (unless they soaked it in salty water previously) however it was still very salty, so as the oyster and the other dishes. We both know that seafood can be salty, but these were way too salty. The service was nice, so as the wine, but chef, if you are working by the counter, where people sitting, and eating, and you need to blow your nose, then please at least wash your hands before handling food again. Glad we were paying already when this has happened. Thanks!

Superb dining experience! We were sitting on the counter from which you can observe all the action in the kitchen. They serve authentic Spanish food with a creative touch. It honestly all tasted amazing! One of my favorite spots in Stoke Newington!
