Good service, very professionnal (has to be because the place is big). Often crowded so reservation might be necessary on weekends. Worth the price. Classy place.

I have missed some bread-based tapas on the menu, but by and large the selection was goos. The staff is friendly and professional although lacking the southetn european charme a bit. In tital a nice evening with good quality food in a appealing atmosphere.

The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because it was SO huge it didn't feel as intimate or personal as some of the other places we had been to. The food was great, service was friendly, but the atmosphere was slightly lacking. Not a reason to stay away, but compared to the other gems we visited while there, it definitely deserves 4 stars. Favorite cheese plate of my trip and great seasonal soup!

The waiter (Mr. Rastaman) is a nice, charming guy. We really had a good time. Actually everyone of us was super hungry. Luckily we decided to go for a big plate of tapas first before ordering anything else. The plate was huge! We had some additional tapas afterwards which were not served with the assorted selection. It also goes very well with their red wine. We tried all three kinds of open red wine of their menu. Definitely a place I would visit a second time.

My favorite though was spicy lamb! Service was ok, though waitresses were not very much into recommendation mode. On the other hand something was missing there. It did not look like a tapas bar, with regular tables and little heavy interior design. On Thursday it was pretty quiet too. So no atmosphere of lively southern style, which can be achieved even outside Spain. People started to clean the place long before people left, so we spend time watching food to be removed and spray with chemicals. I not convinced, especially in Berlin full of variety and great places to dine at.
