Omg!!! This place is always packed for a reason. It's tiny and soooo delicious. Amazing kitchen, great wines, great energy and crowd, super nice people work here and it feels warm, cozy and fun. There're tables outside, inside or seats at the bar or the chef's table, its tight but such great energy. The dishes are well cooked and well seasoned. The flavors are amazing. The cauliflower was phenomenal, the grilled octopus was perfectly soft and needs a bread for dipping, where the sourdough comes in. The green olives plate was great. The Lomito beets burrata is a dish I can see on the Top Chef show, its a gorgeous presentation and flavors, with beets that look exactly like the prosciutto slices. Such a great play on an illusion between eyes and taste buds. The burrata was fresh and just right. This place's got it together. Selection of wines is great and reasonably priced, all pair perfectly well with the tapas. Bring friends so you can try more dishes. :))

Good food. Good atmosphere. Great for pre-theater or just as a destination in its own right.

We came here on accident because the wine bar we wanted to go to had a private event, and we are sure glad we came! We tried a few things with a glass of wine and ended up staying for a while and ordered almost everything on the menu and a carafe of wine. I only got a picture of the octopus because we wanted to eat everything immediately when it hit the table. Will definitely come again next time we are in town.

Okay if you come to london you HAVE to come here. Raquel and her team is absolutely amazing. The quality of drinks as well as food is insane , The pork belly taco is to DIE for. They were such a genuine family type of service. Something that can be rare in these parts. You can tell they are all family oriented and absolutely believe in quality, We are from arizona in the US and travel often and this has been an amazing experience for us. Thanks again !!

We really enjoyed the food, atmosphere and wait staff at this restaurant.  The salad was really fresh, light and full of flavor.   We also had the pon con tomate, which was light and very fresh.   We shared the blue cheese salad and then topped it with the cecina de leon.  Great mix of flavors.    The only thing that we were perplexed about was the kikos.  By the description of the corn, it leads you to believe it's like fresh corn and barbecued.   But it's actually corn nuts.   We thought it was an appetizer like chips and salsa.  When we told her they forgot the kikos, she explained it was the "corn nuts".   Since we didn't even eat them, she took them off the bill.  One of our best meals while In London.  Oh, and a nice selection of wines, with the Malbec being our fav.

Our favorite tapas place in London.  Great tapas, great wine/cocktails, warm and friendly service and ambience.

I usually don't walk into a restaurant without checking Yelp. However, I was walking on Maiden Ln and this place looked nice. Since I was traveling by myself, I wanted a place I could sit at the bar. 

I'm glad I did. The staff was super nice and I even talked to the chef which made the experience even better. They were very accommodating, there was a couple in a rush to get to the theater and they were super nice about it. 

The food was great. I had the octopus ceviche send on a "tostada", the sesame oil added a nice flavor as well as the fish eggs (like caviar but cheaper and lighter). The pork cheek tacos were delicious, the pork melted as I was eating it. The popular "tortilla" was a little plain but I added some salt and pepper and that worked. I even had their jalapeño olives and they were great--- don't worry, they were not super spicy (if you're used to spicy food).

The wine was great too. I had the albariño. 

Overall, great place to come with friends, dates or even by yourself.

My favorite tapas restaurant in Covent Garden. They serve the strange stuff like cow intestines, tongue and the sort of dishes you'd expect in Catalonia. 

The portions are small. It's a tasting menu not a true tapas place like in Spain where the specialize in a few daily dishes (on top of the set menu) with sizeable portions with matching cervezas. 

However, I still like this place. More seats would be nice.

I went with high expectations, but was slightly disappointed. I would give it 3.5 stars, to be fair. 

Food was good overall. We had potatoes, octopus ceviche, pork belly, pulled pork sliders and chorizo. The biggest issue for me was that they seemed quite bland -- no distinctive personality. Also, the portions were surprisingly small for the price, even by tapas standards. 

Service was very good. All staff members were friendly and prompt. 

Ambience was also cozy and hip -- not as posh or straight-laced as some other tapas restaurants I've been to. Do note, though, that the place is quite small and can get noisy at times.
