From the first tapas to the last, we were thrilled with everything we ate. What made the meal even better was the presentation of several of the tapas. We started with the Badulaque salad. Now, a salad is a salad. That is unless it is a Badulaque salad. This creation came with lettuce, spinach, cashews, raisins, tomatoes, goat cheese, balsamic, and an amazing creamy garlic dressing. Best salad ever! Next up was a beautifully presented couscous plate. This also had raisins and cashews. We then moved to gambas al ajillo. This is my go to tapa. While not the best ever, it was quite tasty with plenty to share for four people. After that we had crispy shrimp, which were cut in half and served with a salsa brava. Speaking of that, we also had an order of patatas bravas. This was the best ever patatas bravas. They were filled with an explosion of salsa brava. After that we moved to the lamb cutlets, which truth be told, were just slightly overdone. Lamb should alway be served with some redness showing. Lastly, we shared an Iberian pork dish served Thai style. While amazing, it was not spicy as I would have expected for Thai style. All in all, an absolutely perfect meal. The service was great as was the view. I sincerely thank my colleague for recommending this place to us.

Food and service excellent, even though the weather was horrendous, staff were none stop ensuring that everyone was comfortable. read more Food and service excellent, even though the weather was horrendous, staff were none stop ensuring that everyone was comfortable.

The presentation of each course was fantastic. We tried several tapas, grilled mussels, gazpacho, grilled potatoes, beef Wellington, seafood pasta, just to name a few. We took our server's suggestions and were not disappointed. The sangria was great too. I would recommend this restaurant and would definitely return.
