As Spanish we have to say that the food was the worst ever. Never again. And sorry for the waiter because he was nice. That’s the only good thing there. And please, change the name for Pulpo a la Gallega ‘cause it doesn’t deserve that name.

Decent food but strange ambience. Atmosphere here really let's this place down. You go downstairs into what seems to be the basement of an office, but rather than a cozy, dark room the place itself feels quite bright and sparsely decorated. We partly went hoping to hear upbeat and authentic Spanish music but were disappointed that it was instead hard rock. At one point this was turned so high with shreaking guitar riffs that we could not continue our conversation. At this point we complained to a waiter, only to be told that this was their play list and they are not changing it (ok, then we won't be back!) but he did turn it down. It is a shame that these ambience points overshadowed the overall nice food. Tortilla, padrón peppers and churros were excellent. Other dishes were good too (an aubergine stew was however a bit too salty and oily) and the menu is vast, and suitable for veggies. The house red is also decent.

A lovely meal with family at this hidden gem in the City. In the run up to Christmas, it was busy but the food was as tasty and authentic as always (3rd visit). In particular, the tortilla and the paella were praised by all.

Terrible service. Had to ask to order more than once and both times the waiter was eating food himself while I was a paying customer starving!

Upon arrival there is a full flight of stairs to get in so not suitable if you cannot climb stairs. A pretty dark ambience in the seating area with a lot of background noise. The food was good and service friendly so no complaints there. I'd recommend getting around 4 tapas dishes each and then sharing them all with the group as they are quite small.
