Reviews summary

A spirited neighborhood spot serving generous, authentic Northern Spanish fare — think hearty tapas, standout prawns, perfectly cooked steaks and a memorable Paella Valenciana. Friendly, attentive staff and a hands-on chef offer warm service and wine-pairing recommendations, making it excellent value for groups and food lovers. The atmosphere is lively and homey, ideal for convivial dinners. Note: the raised step at the entrance is a tripping hazard and limits step-free access, so arrive with care.

Incredible food. Have been back several times. Staff are always happy to help and are great at recommendations to meet your palate.

Amazing food and really good service, made special effort for our anniversary. A very cosy family run restaurant

Not Southern Spanish tourist tapas but large portions of traditional Northern Spanish food. Worth a visit, if you get the right waiter, food comes with a free history lesson.

Amazing food, good vibes with great company what more can you ask for? The staff saw that we where new to the restaurant so the made us feel at home and recommend what tapas go with what wines. We ended up having the Paella Valenciana and we didn't regret it one bit.

Nice food, just remember the big step you took up into the restaurant on your way out! Unfortunately I didn't and took a fall onon the way out, I sprained my foot and scratched my back on the step.

I went to this restaurant with my friend Sumo, who enjoys hearty meals, and we were both very impressed. We started with tapas including Calamari, Prawns, and Serrano ham. The prawns were particularly large and all the dishes were delicious. For our main course, we both had fillet steaks which were cooked perfectly. We also enjoyed a few bottles of house red wine to complement our meal. Overall, it was a great dining experience.
