Not bad for local tapas but its not excellent as some reviews have stated. I've eaten at a lot of tapas restaurants. I did leave a review after my visit but strangely it wasn't uploaded? The venue I was surprised from entrance to inside, its really unusual loved it. The staff were attentive and smiley which was infectious The food I ordered are my go to at all tapas not difficult to execute well. Croquettes were a bit runny so lacked much flavour. Pil gambas prawns too much oil lacked flavour but cooked well. Chicken wings cooked perfect but again lacked much flavour. I will go back its local. I like to support local businesses. All I ask is please use more seasoning bring the food alive. I hope they take note because its great to have this local but I'm happy to go elsewhere if my next visit is the same!
