I felt welcome, kitchen and serving crew were helpful and professional. Appreciated for the arrangements despite I overlooked the closing date for a particular dining voucher I bought online. Great plating, taste delicious and food were served in appropriate portion. Quite a few wine selections with appropriate pricing too. Cozy ambience with good ventilation indoor. I will definitely back again for sure!

I went with a friend and the service was lovely from start to end. Gaby, the host was very welcoming and friendly, Alejandro was really good at advising us on the drinks and wanted to give us the next experience possible. I think the chef’s name was Paulin, the food was super delicious and made with extra care. Also our server Jose was amazing.

Great staff as you'd expect in London, you just get a higher level of service. The venue is quaint and has a British London feel to it. It's a great location. Unfortunately the food is not great. We only had a few dishes as we wanted to keep trying dishes as the evening went on. However three dishes in and we wanted to call it a day. The peppers were over salted it was quite overwhelming the amount of salt used. The prawns were just average, unfortunately nothing to distinguish between a restaurant quality dish and something made quickly at home. The potatoes were ok and I would order again. The tiramisu was a real letdown. No flavour, couldn't taste alcohol at all, rubbery and had so much Coco power we had to tip it off to eat it. It was very poor.

If you’re looking for something interesting and new in taste- you should visit this place. We’ve had an amazing time with friends here. Tuna, pork belly,chocolate mousse and meringue were absolutely delicious. Service is very warm and welcoming. Definitely will come back!

My friend took me to this place and the entire experience was delightful, it was such a cozy place. The host Gaby, was very kind and welcoming. The dinner was exceptionally tasty and prepared with great care by the chef, whose name I believe was Paulin. Jose, our server, was also outstanding. I waited at the bar, and Alejandro was very helpful in suggesting drinks to us and provided us with the best experience possible.

Nice quaint nook in the middle of Covent Garden’s hustle and bustle. The food has elevated classics with a touch of interesting twists. The restaurant delivers on food quality, taste, atmosphere and service. The servers were extremely nice and had a lovely chat with them about the restaurant. They seem to know their stuff as well as the food. The atmosphere is understated yet sophisticated and it feels like a very cozy and intimate restaurant. The music was suited to the place and not too overbearing. The decoration has a nice feel. Best thing about the place is the food though. I recommend the iberico abanico, the jamon croquettes and the fig dessert. The place was also clean with good glasses for drinks and shiny cutlery. Great for dates or catch ups with good friends.

It was alright. Ordered the bellota, patatas and the tiger prawns. The prawn was okay to eat (I finished them) but was definitely not the freshest. Bad day, I hope? The sauce was nice though. The cocktails look delicious and the bar tender was nice.

This place is amazing! The food is delicious and the atmosphere to die for! We had the squid black rice, the patatas bravas, the ox and the burrata and was just delicious! Definitely recommend and will go back!
