Tapas restaurant in London

“Came for Valentine's Day and had a lovely experience. The restaurant has such a family feel, the manager would greet everyone as old friends, and I really hope as they gain popularity they don't lose that personal touch. While it was busy, it wasn't overcrowded despite being Valentine's Day. The service was brilliant, everyone was very attentive, and the set menu was absolutely delicious. We particularly enjoyed the meze dips, the arancini, and the chicken shish. The cocktails were also fantastic. We had a slight confusion with a cocktail voucher, but the manager happily honoured the misunderstanding without question, which was very professional and kind of him. Would highly recommend.”

“Truly delicious and exciting food - highly recommend the pani puri and aloo firecracker. We went on a weekday so it was very quiet and a nice ambience. The manager was rude and abrasive to his staff in front of us which was disappointing, but hopefully a one-off.”

“Me and my partner had a lovely evening in La Paceña. The prices are very fair for what you get and drinks are well priced too. A pint of Estrella Galicia is £5.50. We had the mixed grill which could easily be shared by three people. We were hosted by Ruby & Jennifer who made our evening even more memorable. We’ll definitely be back.”

“I had the pleasure of dining at Mezzet Dar. It was not just the delicious food that made my experience memorable; it was the exceptional service and hospitality provided by Jonas, our attentive server. From the moment we entered the restaurant, Jonas greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel incredibly welcome. His enthusiasm and passion for the restaurant and its offerings were immediately evident, and it set the tone for an extraordinary dining experience. Jonas' knowledge of the menu was extensive, and he took the time to explain each dish to us in detail. Not only did Jonas excel in his role as a server, but he also went above and beyond to ensure our utmost comfort throughout the evening. He checked on us regularly, ensuring that our glasses were always filled and that we had everything we needed. His attention to detail was impeccable, and he anticipated our needs even before we voiced them. I highly recommend visiting Mezzet Dar and experiencing Jonas' outstanding service firsthand. You can trust him to provide exceptional recommendations and ensure that your dining experience is nothing short of remarkable.”

“This is a hidden gem. Great 3 course midweek lunch set menu for £28.50. The food is wonderful with generous potions The service was outstanding, so friendly without being in your face. Suggest booking in advance There is a car park by the station which allows 3 hours free parking. We definitely been returning”

“Fantastic food and excellent service! 5 starts all round!”

“An incredible restaurant to be in, service is top notch and very friendly. Exactly what you need after a long trip from Newcastle Upon Tyne to Lewisham. Food was incredible, having a shared meat platter. Everything was hot and fresh. Would love to go again!”

“First of all, that Korean kimchi pancake is really tasty as it’s so doughy but crispy outside. The ice cream would be the perfect ending of the meal!”

“Really nice food and coffee with reasonable price. Totally enjoy it and strongly recommend this cafe to everyone!”

“I would give 10 starts if I could! My fiancé and I visited for late lunch (a lot of places close at 3pm and reopen at 5/6pm in Fulham so we were very pleased you were open!) and had the whole place for ourselves and the very own owner serving us with the most amazing Italian food you can ever have! Do not hesitate for a second to come to this place, the vibe the music the staff the space and the FOOD were all so amazing that we felt very sad to be leaving. Honestly your pizza and tiramisu especially were unreal and we can’t wait to come back!!!! Grazie mille ♥️”

“Outstanding food, eclectic and cool decor and great service (including from the chef himself!). We had the 6 course vegetarian tasting menu with a few extra dishes (tuna tataki and nduja) and it was all absolutely incredible. The drinks are delicious, the decor is really interesting and the service is great. Highly recommend!”

“What a find, beautiful food and brilliant service. We had two serving choices for each of us and it was the perfect meal size. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. Simply brilliant food, amazing taste.”

“I come every weekend now, it is the best place to get a full English. Great staff and great food. Would recommend!”

“Very good food ,very friendly staff,good ambiance,clean ,good for a nice Friday dinner out with music ,good for birthday parties also ,plenty space for more than 30 people.i definitely recommend and I will return.”

“I was already a big fan of this restaurant - the tapas is excellent - and was interested to try their Sunday roast. I went on the first day of this new menu and, quite simply, LOVED it! There were a few nibble type starters available - olives, padron peppers, almonds, bread. We had the sourdough bread - this came toasted with an alioli sauce - very tasty! The main course choices were beef, chicken, lamb cutlets or a vegan wellington. We had the chicken and lamb - both were served with roast potatoes, roasted carrots, parsnips, broccoli, yorkshire pudding and gravy. All superbly seasoned and delicious! Good portion size too. We didn’t have desserts, but saw others tucking into cheesecake and churros. Next time! The staff were fantastically welcoming as always! Laura, kept saying words to the effect of “It’s our first day doing this…” - no need to justify anything Laura, you’ve already aced this! Pricing is well pitched - £19 - £21 per person for main course, depending on your choice of meat. Well done Laura, Danny and, of course, the brilliant Spanish chef, Freddy! Already booked to go back next week!”

“Lovely little place! I found them on Instagram and after seeing the daily cakes etc posted on there I had to check them out. I went on a Saturday morning, sat outside and had a lovely brunch (Eggs Benedict) and chatted to a couple of ladies outside whilst we all had coffee too. I then treated myself to an amazing cake that I took home for later! Service and food was great. I plan to go back tomorrow morning :)”

“Very pleasant evening. Well looked after. The paella was especially good. Some starters were a bit oily. Definitely revisiting soon.”

“Good food！the drink and desert is so beautiful and attentive. The food is also very delicious, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is very good. The staff inside is super enthusiastic and friendly, and the recommended dishes and wine are so impressive. I really like it!”

“I can’t believe why this place isn’t rammed! The food and the drinks are 5* amazing! Delicious! We rocked up by accident and were blown away. The quality of the meat and seafood was insane and the flavours so unexpected! I would highly recommend. The staff, so welcoming and friendly. Would definitely return!”

“Went for a birthday dinner and couldn’t have been more perfect. Very cool dark atmosphere and buzzy, felt like being in a film. Our waiter was relaxed and excellent. Food was simple and spot on, no faff just perfectly cooked French meat. Great wine list all by the glass. Not a cheap night out but I guess we did that and certainly don’t regret it. Will highly recommend”

“Had a wonderful dining experience at TOZI. The food is fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic Italian. The cozy atmosphere adds to the charm. While portions are a bit small for the price, the quality and taste are top-notch. Definitely worth a visit if you're near Victoria!"”

“I have been coming to Señor Ceviche for YEARS and I can’t believe I’m only leaving a review now! I have never been disappointed, they have some of the best ceviche I’ve ever had and their chifa chicharrones are to die for. Service is always so nice and impeccable and today had the pleasure to be served by Diana who tempted me into trying the brunch menu, which was amazing value for money! The chocolate mousse for dessert was outstanding. A great choice and pretty much everything on the menu is a safe option cos you just know it’s gonna be delicious! Can’t wait to be back!”

“Really good paella and nice service. The patatas bravas were good, but the chistorra could be better.”

“Such a good place! We enjoyed a lot, we went late to dinner and still they gave service to us. We are from Spain and really enjoyed the food. Congrats not many restaurants gets the Spanish taste!!”

“Had the champagne afternoon tea and it was the best afternoon tea I've ever had ( I've had quite a few!,) food was so nice and the smoked salmon and caviar side was unexpected. Each bit was delicious and staff so polite and attentive and kindly swapped our champagne for white wine. Definitely would recommend and the hotel was lovely too. We had a groupon voucher which made it excellent value for money.”

“We went as a family of four. The food here is absolutely delicious! One thing was not got right was our paella. I ordered a food one they delivered a meat one. We are easygoing people so it was fine. It helps that it’s delicious. Tapas - we have 6 including the salad. See pics. Absolutely recommended. But you could skip the chicken wings and order something else. Chicken wings are… just wings. Nothing special. The rest is so yum! The paella carne is delicious. The chorizo is soft not chewy. Sorry forgot to take pics! We also ordered the grilled seafood - salmon, sea bass, mussels, monk fish and 1 sardines. It tasted fresh as if off the sea. How ? Beats me! It was gorgeous! We also had 4 cocktails. The peach one is sooo good. Skip the passion fruit one. So tangy! Dessert was churros and profiteroles. Both are gorgeous! Staff was attentive and not intrusive. Service was quick and it’s a laid back atmosphere. For 4 people with 5 tapas, 2 mains, 4 cocktails, 2 desserts and 1 tea came to just under £139 with service charge included. It was our first time here. Definitely would come again. I totally recommend it!”

“Fantastic little tapas bar. We had some unforgettable food, chef is clearly so passionate. Lots of creative small plates, a refreshing change from the standard tapas plates you see in most places. Recommended”

“Well prepared cooked food and lovely drinks. Ackee and saltfish, prawns, rice and peas- tapas menu and oxtail meal. A well made Strawberry daiquiri cocktail- (happy hour- that can be benefited from, so many places it’s just out of time). Very attentive staff. Good atmosphere ! Highly recommend.”

“First time visiting this restaurant and was a welcome change for us. The food was delicious, fresh and full of flavour. The menu was great, so much variety and good value. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the place had a great 'family run' atmosphere. Felt like we were on holiday, washing it all down with sangria! Will definitely be back.”

“Great experience from start to end. Booking a table was simple through their website and third party provider. Very attentive staff. Food was amazing. We had the patatas bravas, whitebait deep fried, paella, beetroot and goats cheese tart. The latter’s flavours and textures were on another level. Would highly recommend. What a gem in Dartford.”
