Lovely, buzzy tapas pub. Great vibe and food was lovely. Quite expensive for what it was but staff were so attentive (without being overly so) and we had a lovely time.

There is a pleasant relaxed atmosphere. The pace of service is good, attentive but not rushing you. The food is good and reasonably priced and, as you would expect the range of wines and their quality is excellent.

A classic haunt that's still worth a visit. Good wine list - mostly Spanish or South American. Great staff who seemed reasonably knowledgeable. We had a fun time. The mixed platter for sharing was modest at best.

Very good tapas - quite a limited selection of dishes, but very tasty and reasonably priced. Excellent wine and again reasonably priced. Great atmosphere and lovely antique decor.

We had the quiet corner table we like best and enjoyed a very nice bottle of Old Vine Granacha with a shared Rib Steak and green salad. Excellent food and service at a very reasonable price.

We booked last minute but got comfortable table, was busy but that did not delay the food etc. Prosecco was great, and the port smooth.

Excellent, friendly service; some lovely wines at reasonable prices. Food good, if not outstanding. Nice, relaxed atmosphere. Tables too close together for my liking. A thoroughly enjoyable experience: I will go again.

Booked El Vino for its location en route back from the City. It seems to be an after work watering hole without any pretensions for fine dining. Having said, the Tapas meal was good and good value and the Merlot was very drinkable.

Great place for an informal catch up. Decent tapas and an excellent wine selection, very friendly service, but could have been more attentive on a very quiet Wednesday afternoon.

Liked the history behind this place, and then saw the great selection of tapas dishes, main meals and fine wines. Thoroughly enjoyed the "5 tapas plates" menu, great value and looking forward to going back soon.
