This restaurant was fantastic, they fitted 10 of us in at the last minute. The food was really good, service was excellent they could not do enough for us and it was nice to see people talking to one another rather than sat on their phones. I am not local but would happily drive back just to come here.

Food was excellent. There was a delay in one item being sent, hence the 3/5 for service, but it came instantly when raised. Staff were very good. Very well priced. 5 dishes between 2 was plenty. Patatas Bravas - 4/5 Dates in bacon w/ blue cheese - 4/5 Fried goats cheese and honey - 3/5 Basque sausage cheese skewers - 5/5 Cod fritters - 3.5/5

Very yummy food, gets very busy and even though we had a reservation for Friday evening, we still had to wait around 20 minutes. The staff are super nice and the atmosphere is lovely-it’s energetic and loud. Every dish I tried was really nice and I particularly recommend the jamon iberico.

Despite the booking being confirmed by email, the restaurant was shut at the time with no communication telling us this. A nearby competitor benefitted from our custom instead.

We booked a table for 1.00, however when we arrived the establishment was closed. This was made even more frustrating as we had received a confirmation email saying that our booking had been verified by a real person, not just a computer system. Very disappointed, I expected better. I feel as if they have let the entirety of Spain down with their poor customer service. I wouldn't recommend to anyone, as if they did come the restaurant would not be open anyway.

Be sure to order the black paella first 😀 It’s so delicious. The rice is thicker and a little moist but the surface and bottom are still slightly crispy. Squeeze lemon and it’s perfect. The best paella I’ve ever tasted! The seafood is all kinds of fragrant and delicious. My second favorite is octopus🐙

La comida era interesante y servida a un buen ritmo, pausado y en cantidades generosas. Era sabroso si te gusta la carne, pero para un vegetariano cercano en un grupo que eligió el “menú de fiesta” era muy difícil saber qué comer! Afortunadamente soy un “flexitariano” así que no me morí de hambre, pero simplemente me sorprendió que (en estos días, y en el Reino Unido) la amplia y variada selección contenía tan pocos platos vegetarianos (y esos eran papas pesadas, excepto el sabroso carbón, pimientos a la parrilla y el plato de queso que estaba bueno). Espero que sea un reflejo justo -estoy seguro que a los amantes de las carnes curadas y las combinaciones de queso les encantaría esto, y parecía auténtico y de alta calidad.

Las porciones son generosas, por lo que es fácil compartirlas con un grupo, y hay mucha variedad en el menú. El restaurante tiene un ambiente cómodo y relajado perfecto para disfrutar de una comida sin prisas. El personal es amable y eficiente, manteniendo las cosas funcionando sin problemas.

The food is simply amazing! Everything is so delicious that it's hard to pick just one dish – every bite and drink is incredible. The atmosphere at Al-Andalus is a joy in itself. The decor, the vibe, and even the lighting make you feel like you're in sunny Spain. It's so cozy and festive! Thank you for creating such wonderful moments – I will gladly return again and again!

Hemos estado tratando de venir aquí por unas semanas y tuvimos la suerte de conseguir una mesa en un lugar obviamente popular. No estábamos decepcionados, un servicio honesto encantador y buena comida. Habíamos enumerado 9 tapas, pero el esperado fue honesto y sugirió con sus porciones que podríamos estar demasiado entusiasmados. Tenía razón, los ocho en los que nos instalamos servimos unos cuantos a la vez que disfrutamos con cava. Gran alioli y calamaes de primera clase donde lo más destacado.

Pros: staff were nice and attentive, nice restaurant appearance wise Cons: went for one of the group/party options and the food quality was so poor - and it was not cheap either. Really lacking in flavour especially the tortilla. A lot of the dishes looked very shop bought (peppers in oil dish was straight out of a jar on some basic salad). Ordered sangria which is advertised as 11% alcohol strength but tasted very watered down with juice. Lots of good reviews on here so maybe main menu dishes are better quality but I wouldn’t return

Was looking forward to an evening eating tapas and impressed by the reviews. However, I really struggle to understand why there are so many positive reviews about the quality of the food. Patatas bravas were OK (shop bought aioli). Pollo and chorizo con patatas was OK too. Other positive note, service was pretty good. Other than that, some of the worst tapas I have ever eaten with a special mention to the tortilla (very eggy, no onion, overcooked and dry). The lamb skewers were also overcooked with a strange tasting glaze. The gambas a la plancha (4 for £9.50!) were absolutely tasteless. Albondigas were too sweet. Croquetas were overcooked, too dry and pretty tasteless. The chistorra in Pinchos de chistorra i queso on the other hand was raw and the bread it was served on was disappointing. Buñuelos de bacalao were a bit greasy and didnt really taste of anything.

Just ok. Decently priced for medium Spanish food. The vegetarian paella is nothing to rave about and the croquettes are a skip. The star of the show was the fried goats cheese and honey. The sangria is not strong and tastes of a box mix with very little wine in it. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere but could do with some updates and a deep clean.

Bland, cold and the staples were the worst! We've been twice now to this restauraunt and it's surprisingly bad considering how nice it looks and how inexplicably popular it is! Croquettes - really awful - bland, horrible texture - how can these be bad in a tapas restaurant! Frozen ones from the supermarket would be better! Tortilla - one of my favourite bits usually and here it was cold, flavourless, nasty texture - so disappointing Patatas bstavas with chicken and chorizo - cold and unbelievably bland - not even a hint of heat or flavour in the chorizo - really really bad. Were hungry and ate it all - not cheap and not good enough. Other dishes edible but nothing special. I will say the dates with blue cheese and wrapped in bacon were good. Staff perfectly pleasant but never asked how it was and wouldn't have been able to improve anything if they had! So much better food to be had in Oxford - it looks great from the outside but don't fall for it . If a Spanish person was to eat this I'm sure they'd be frothing with rage as to what had been done to their precious cuisine!

I can’t fault the ambience or the service. However, the vegan options were very bland. The patatas bravas were just roast potatoes, with no flavour. The waitress told us afterwards the spicy chilli sauce was vegan so should have been on the potatoes. The sautéed spinach and vegetable kebabs were tasteless. Both could have been improved with garlic and spices. One of us eats meat and said their food was lovely hence the average rather than poor review. I have to say the vegetable paella on the next table looked lovely so if we go back, we’ll try that.

Believe me, this is the worst restaurant experience I have ever had in my life, both in terms of food and service. It was only 7 o'clock when we arrived (with a reservation), but the waiter refused to let us order paella. Unfortunately, the restaurant only had this main course. In order to be full, we were forced to order many side dishes and three desserts. Each dish can be more unpalatable than the last, with stale ingredients and strange seasonings that are tasteless. I don’t know why the restaurant still has a 4-star rating. I hope everyone will see this food review. ill!!!🙂

Very slow service, although they were not so slow to take the order. We ate and they didn't check if everything was OK, if we wanted anything else or even wanted a coffee or a pudding after. They came to our table 1.5 hours after we had finished the meal. The restaurant was practically empty, so there was no excuse apart from the fact they may have forgotten we were there. I resent having had to pay the service charge to be honest, I wish i had refused to pay it.

I am sorry to say that this is a spot that should be skipped. The service was lovely and one of the best experiences we've had in Oxford. The food, on the other hand, was shameful. The albondigas came out in a crock that showed all the signs of having been microwaved (the crust on the tomato sauce along the edges where it meets the bowl); potatas bravas that had bravely sat in a pan after being semi-roasted before being scooped out and taken to the table. The mushrooms were fine, but maybe take the rough stems out so they don't look sad and ruin what was probably the best dish of the meal. I love sangria, but this one was a little too heavy on the sugar for me. We did not stay for dessert. Great service. Blame the back of house for this disappointment.

We arrived at the second seating at 8.30pm but we were greeted with a long queue of people. It took at least half an hour before someone came to take our order. No bread or appetisers were offered. The wine was below average and the food was mostly overcooked. There were a few dishes which were tasty but overall the meal was painfully average for the price. The service was slow but this was not the fault of the staff, they were all overworked and too few on shift. Wouldn't recommend - there are many better restaurants in Oxford.

We ordered 6 different tapas and only the grilled lamb was any good. The rest was either average of below average which was quite disappointing for the price of each dish. I would have given a 3/5 review but to top off the evening, the waiter tried to overcharge us an extra £10 on the card machine, I might have believed it was an accident if the numbers were even a bit similar to those on the receipt but they weren't. £50.79 is unlikely to accidentally become £60.41. And service charge was already included in the price. Luckily I noticed and they gave it back to us in cash. Would not recommend.

The risotto is gorgeous, delicately flavoured and comforting. You have to wait for 30 minutes whilst its prepared, but it's worth it. The other dishes are equally good and provide some interesting flavours - eg dates with blue cheese wrapped in bacon. It can get quite noisy indoors when it's busy, but this is the price you pay for a popular restaurant. There is a nice garden in the back for warmer evenings.

We chose this place because we really like tapas, and because of the largely great TA reviews. We weren't disappointed. It was a bitterly cold Sunday lunchtime and the welcome was as warm as the restaurant. The dishes we chose were all excellent, service very good and prices quite reasonable. We ended up staying there for almost three hours as it was so relaxing, and didn't get hassled at all by the staff. The location is really convenient, around a 5 minute walk from the Ashmolean and the centre of town. Highly recommended.

Food was tasteless and was served cold. None of the fresh tapas in the menu was available, just the precooked ones. Honestly the worst tapas experience I had. The staff though was polite and friendly.

Services was okay, the guys was rushing for us to order and waiter will come over to keep the rice bucket even before we finish the food and will scoop the rice for you. Sweet and sour pork the best I would say. Others are still okay.

The bartender was rude and made me feel very unwelcome. He even mocked me for being too energetic as I was ordering?! A very unpleasant experience which put a damper on my spirits for what was supposed to be a nice reunion with friends. I will not be coming again.

Great food with large quantity dishes. Service was very kind. The place is small and cozy, we also received a complimentary bowl of fries which were awesome. Great restaurant.
