My partner and I had dinner earlier today and the food was incredible. The waitresses were attentive and the atmosphere was perfect for a romantic dinner for two. I would highly recommend that you go! Best Tapas in London for sure!

Extremely loud and difficult to have a conversation. You’ll pay 12.5% service fee but also have to sit and wait to wave down a waiter every single time you need anything.
