Santiago's Tapas Cardiff

The food was delicious with a huge choice. The service was great with lovely staff. Can't wait to go back!

It's a good place for some authentic tapas. I personally prefer the branch in Whitchurch, which has better food and a nicer ambience.

Lovely choice of tapas, everything that we ordered was delicious

Food was excellent and we will definitely be returning. The service was very good and friendly. Lovely atmosphere.

Padron peppers, lamb stiffado, paella, and chorizo with potatoes, all very nice. Staff nice and friendly.

Very nice - loved the tapas and sat outside for the atmosphere

Excellent food, delicious sangria. Great value for money

Terrible food, questionable recipes (potato Bravas not with tomato but cubes of under cooked potato with Mayo squeezed on top??)
Ambience of a school canteen ..
never again .

Tortilla was dry and the rest of the dishes were underwhelming. The wine was hugely overpriced and the whole experience was just really disappointing.

Food was great, lots of vegetarian options which made it easy to order for a group with mixed dietary requirements. Loved it there.

Very poor overall. Microwave rice on the paella, no flavour, could buy better frozen. Staff didn’t want to be there and made no effort to check how the meal was. Will be sticking with bar44 for tapas from now on, far better in everyway

Lovely food, service and atmosphere. Definitely will return

As ever, excellent food and friendly, efficient service.

I'd recommend booking as it's always busy.

Amazing tapas! Would highly recommend. Authentic & tasty.

Great classic tapas and mains Spanish restaurant. Nice to get away from chains

A perfect day sat outside watching the world go by. Totally enjoyed our lunch and wine.

Excellent food at a reasonable price with good service

Lovely atmosphere great menu and food was spot on. Attentive service all courses brought exactly as ordered.

Staff were nice but a bit slow, restaurant is a bit small so close to others as we battle a pandemic is not ideal.

I love tapas but this wasn't my favourite place for tapas. The sardines were cold and a bit raw the chicken skewers were ok the potato's were a tad hard but the paella and garlic prawns a chirizo was lovely. I don't think there's much meat selections compared to other tapas restaurants.

We had potato bravas, garlic mushrooms, calamari and a seafood and meat paella. Everything was delicious and piping hot. Excellent customer service.

Paella and squid were some of the best we have had.
Toilets could be improved.

Excellent food and friendly service. Would definitely recommend to my family and friends.

Excellent food as usual with a cheerful atmosphere.

Pregunte a una camarera si la paella era hecha al momento y me dijo que si,mi primera impresion al verla ya fue que era pre-cocinada,y cuando la probe lo comfirme,pero weno,como la mayoria de restaurantes españoles en uk

Amazing food and a real family feel to the restaurant. Will definitely be reccomending and returning.

Great service, OK food. Location was perfect however

The food and drinks were really good. Service was slow. The staff took ages to serve but food was ready quickly

Lovely meal and surroundings and lovely attentive staff. Will definitely be back. Somewhere I wouldn’t have found tucked away very authentic place

Our visit was ok, we had reserved our table but there was some one seating there when we arrived & had to wait 10 mins. The food was good but had to wait 10/15 extra minutes for one of the meals. The drinks order was mixed up but got there in the end.

Ok food generally nice staff nice restaurant looks a little tired

The food was beautiful xxx we come again very soon x I have shared my 5 star review with my 5k Facebook followers

First night out since having our baby and the expectations were to standard, amazing, friendly, funny service we had. Outstanding food and drinks. Defiantly will be returning and with the family!! X

Excellent wine and excellent food
Staff friendly and helpful

First visit to Santiago’s and it did not disappoint, lovely food and really nice staff. Will definitely be visiting again soon.

Great place for tapas as you would expect. Our party of four had a lovely leisurely lunch

Unfortunately, apart from the Chorizo with Potatoes, the food was very underwhelming and the "paella" was very dubious as it actually looked and tasted more like Uncle Ben's microwaveable rice!!! Considering the price, the quality of the food was totally unacceptable. The restaurant itself needs a lot of TLC and money spending on it as it looked very run down and unclean. The toilet facilities were absolutely appalling! They clearly hadn't been cleaned for at least a week as there was grot, grime, dust, and hairs everywhere. They don't even have proper toilet facilities in fact, there is one toilet for all customers to use and one next to it for staff only. For the extortionate prices, the hygiene and food quality was completely unacceptable. Would not recommend at all. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

Waitress was very good although they were very short staffed. Food was great but had to wait for bread and olives and had nearly finished our food.

Great food but the service was like something from faulty towers had to wave someone down after 35 minutes to ask if it’s ok for us to order our food 😂 3 times they bring the wrong bottle of wine, ask for the table to be cleared 30 mins after we finished our food, pleasant meal but the staff are lacking training or management, they were very pleasant just unable to do the job

Fantastic food, excellent service and easy booking
