Andalucia Tapas Restaurant in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Off the main drag of theatreland and a good find. We had no reservation but found a table pre-show and we were efficiently served. Fairly mainstream tapas but well prepared and tasty. Not astronomically expensive for central London.

Cosy atmosphere, friendly service. The food was lovely, hot, fresh and really tasty would absolutely recommend. A refreshing break from the plethora of chain restaurants in the area. A hidden gem seek it out.

I really want to say I liked this place because the service was really good but the food was too bad. One thing I liked are the calamari. The worse patatas bravas I've ever had, I tried to season them with some olive oil on the table that was definitely watered down and tasted so bitter I ended up just leaving the potatoes in the plate. The chicken was so dry we had to leave it, the ham croquettes tasted weird, left that as well, the rest we ate cause we were starving but quite unhappily. Chorizo was ok, cause let's be honest, you can't possibly make chorizo taste bad! House wine was £9.50 but tasted really cheap. Everything was overpriced for such bad quality. We had to leave to go and get food elsewhere. Disappointing and underwhelming.

What to say? So bad. The food was beyond JV for tapas. The chicken was a chicken nugget stick for children. The sauces lacked flavor. It was in a basement which felt like a basement. Just a bad call.

A fabulous find just off the main road. Tapas, Drinks and service was fabulous. Place had a lovely vibe. Would recommend for pre or after theatre. Prices were good

Good atmosphere, although slightly cramped downstairs space. Excellent service, ideal for pre-theatre meal.

Really lovely evening in this Tapas Restaurant just off Haymarket. Very cosy atmosphere, very friendly staff and good food. We will definitely be back.

It was a lovely little place that had great food and excellent service ! I will be certainly going back !

Very nice Tapas bar off Haymarket - good friendly service with lovely food to boot. Worth a visit for a quick bite.

Very central, just next to Leicester Square and ideal for cinema or theatre. Most places near there are chains or are awful ripoffs - so it is good to go somewhere individual and reasonably good. I am surprised by the 1* reviews. It is not “wow!” But it is pleasant enough. Service was fine, the wine pleasant, food tasty if uninspired. I would not search it out or make a special effort and there are obviously better tapas in London— but if I were in Leicester Square or going to theatre I’d be quite happy to go back here for a meal.

Genuinely terrible food at very expensive prices. The chorizo was like biting into a rubber boot and the chicken was similar. £16 cheeseboard for 2 types of cheese with 3 slices of bread. Don’t waste your money

Very little food for the price. We had some croquettes and when they put them in I thought it was the cover of the drink. Just to say that we left there and went to the supermarket to buy some sandwiches.

Very good. Friendly service and great food. Good find.

lovely staff and service but the food items we ordered didn’t seem to have enough flavour and seemed as if they were frozen/ store bought

Restaurant was empty … not a single other table occupied. Food was just about average.

A last minute booking and it did not disappoint ! We rang ahead as we were late out of show. We were given clear directions on how to get there. Our host Jose was warm and welcoming very attentive. There was 3 of us and we selected several dishes each of the tapas menu. There was plenty of food all very tasty and pleasing. Great value for money shared a bottle of wine divided the bill worked out £40 each which I think was excellent. Next time we visit London I shall return to this little gem.

This is an authentic , Spanish food. The place is small, but it’s so good food very very authentic. You have to try the tapas. 

Authentic little tapas place perfect for pre or after theatre in the west end. Only small negative was nearly 9 pounds for a pint! Bit pricey even for the location.

What a lovely surprise so authentic and tasty food and staff were so helpful

Lovely family run Spanish restaurant with lots of atmosphere and friendly service great for pre-theatre dinner. All the tapas plates were excellent and very tasty and the jug of sangria certainly helped them down. Highly recommended and so close to Harold Pinter theatre, extremely convenient.

Have been to Andalucia several times now for pre-theatre meals. Always spot on. Tapas are reasonably priced and arrive quickly. Buenisimo!

This is a nice little basement restaurant just off Leicester Square. The venue is pleasant and the staff were relatively friendly. Service was prompt. However the food was very average. It says something when the best dish was the garlic bread. For central London prices, I wouldn’t plan to return.

Great Service - lovely Staff - amazing food! Celebrated a birthday meal.

We went for a pre theatre light meal. Service was great & ambience good but food rather greasy and calamari very disappointing.

Great find for a pre theatre dinner for four. Great food and wine, quickly served with friendly service.

I was walking by the area and stopped by to read the menu, as Spanish I'm embarrassed with the food they advertise, most of it doesn't exist in Spain. -I don't know what Mediterranean sauce is. -salmon in Andalucía? -mistype in menu, with English words, most of it its in poor Spanish. -all seems served with patatas bravas, this is never a side. -most dishes don't exist and it's not what you would eat in a restaurant in Spain. Please shut this down.

Perfect place for pre theatre, lovely waitress, tasty food, quick service and we could hear ourselves speak

Food lukewarm and very average. But overpriced for the quality. Too heavy on the tomato pulp

WATCH YOUR BILL. We have been going there for years. We just discovered that they have been overcharging us for years. They put 10% service charge on the whole amount, BEFORE any cancelled dishes or corrections. The cancellations / corrections only come after the whole amount + 10% service charge. The waitress told us she only charges 1 bread £3.85 of a table of 3 people and any refill, but we were charged £3.85 per head! When I went back with the overcharged bill, she told me it was the machine. Not a good feeling after going for years.

Despite the friendly and efficient staff, the restaurant's worn appearance mirrors the lackluster quality of its dishes. Unpleasant odours from the toilets further detracted from the atmosphere. The highlight was the tasteless alioli accompanying the chicken cutlets, with an odd aftertaste, and the expired soft drinks.

Very homely Spanish restaurant, cosy friendly service the paella was fantastic it is not clear that the price is for two people though!

Very good. What is missing is someone who speaks Spanish.

Great food and services. Small family fun tapas restaurant

Lovely service and great food, will definitely be visiting again ☺️

Amazing little piece of Spain found by accident via Google - was like being served by family!

Attention this place is a SCAM ! Made reservations for 5 people 4 weeks in advance and had to pay £50 deposit. At the night of the diner we show up and they blunty tell us there is no space left in the restaurant and they cancell our reservation. Since then I have been sending them multiple mails to recoup my £50 deposit. They do not even have the basic courtesy to reply and just keep my £50. This is organised theft. Don't book online with these guys, they will steal your money.

Had a beautiful post-theatre meal here with my wife on Xmas Eve and can highly recommend those looking for an authentic tapas restaurant in the area. Have eaten here many times before and have yet to be disappointed.

Food is below average and place is too small . However service lady was excellent and value was okay

Absolutely one of the worst meals I have had. Just deep fried slop delivered by surly man. Really do not risk eating here

An Oasis of Bliss: This delightful little tapas restaurant truly stands out. The staff are exceptionally lovely, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. As for the food, it's nothing short of fantastic – a true testament to culinary excellence. Highly recommended for a memorable dining experience

Tastes better than the front door looks!!

Amazing restaurant. Excellent wines. Delicious food. Very warm ambiance. We were wit 12 persons. Stayed late. But the lady who served stayed so friendly. I would highly recommend this place.

Wasn't impressed at all. Wouldn't really recommend it

We made a reservation 6 weeks beforehand, they make you pay a 50 pond deposit. When we arrived (perfectly on time), they just told us they were full and we had to go. No further explantion. So we had nowhere to go with a group of 5 people on a Saturday night. Terrible service

We made a reservation a couple of weeks ago. When we arrived they told us they cancelled it in the morning. We hadn’t received any notification of this. We checked our mails afterwards, they didn’t let us know. We had to pay 50pounds in advance when we made the reservation, they didn’t pay us back. We won’t be ever going back there!

We made a reservation and they " cancelled it because there was no room". Not the way reservations work and very unfriendly people'

Service was excellent, given how busy the restaurant was. Food was what you would expect from a Tapas bar. The only issue, which cannot be avoided due to the size of the room, is the noise level. If you want to have conversations where you don’t have to shout, this is not for you. Otherwise a great find with good, reasonably price dishes.

Lovely authentic place, good food; nice personnel

Very expensive for low-quality food. The staff were lovely - the place was empty.

Fabulous authentic tapas. Excellent service throughout and friendliest of staff. The best place in west end to eat tapas. Go see for yourself....

Special night out in London and Andalucia delivered an excellent meal in lovely surroundings.

We enjoyed our time and dinners in London but the food at Andalucia was unfortunately gross. Even our kids left hungry. The paella was bland, overcooked and stuck to then pan, priced 26 Pounds per person but you have to order a minimum double order +50 Pounds. The prices were high and food quality was terrible. It is down stairs so a lower level,The vegetables may have been canned, soggy and overcooked, calamari was chewy. There were only 6 other other diners total so the remaining room of 25 seats were empty. We felt robbed for the price of the food and the quality that was served.

Really lovely find, next door to Harold Pinter Theatre. Great food and atmosphere, will definitely be back.

Simple,tasty Andalucian food in a tiny basement space. Quick and pleasant service and reasonable prices for central London. Extensive range of choice so something to suit every taste.

Simple and authentic Spanish food in a tiny basement room. Very good service and reasonable prices for such a central location.

Lovely find right next door to the Harold Pinter Theatre, so perfect for pre- or post theatre dining. We had a variety of tapas and they were all tasty. Wine was good value for money too.

Great food and friendly service. Nice ambience - doesn’t feel like you’re in the middle of Piccadilly!

Pre-theatre visit, first time. Cosy atmosphere, excellent tapas, friendly and good service and the food was very tasty with a delicious glass of Albariño. Prices are very reasonable and will be back. Thank you !

Para los que somos de España, entras ilusionado pero no te atienden en Español, y no hacen por entenderte al igual que en casi todo Londres, la comida precios altos para la calidad/cantidad , tortilla recalentada y croquetas de pollo que solo tienen el nombre

The food was acceptable - but you can do better than this, Andalucia! Disappointed to find standards had slipped and prices had risen considerably since my last visit. I last went a few years ago for pre-theatre dining. The restaurant used to have a competitively-priced set menu and friendly waiting staff. Now there is no set menu, and the drinks in particular are over-priced. The menu states which items are vegetarian, but not vegan. We had one vegan in the party and the waitress was very unhelpful when we asked which dishes were vegan. She basically gave the impression she didn't care, which is odd these days, when most establishments are more aware of dietary requirements and intolerances.

The staff are always really friendly & polite & so helpful with choosing their yummy Tapas.

We had a selection of delicious tapas, with a fulsome Rioja, before heading to the theatre. The manager and waiting staff were friendly and attentive. We have eaten here before and will definitely keep coming.

Food wasn't properly cooked. If you want Spanish food do not go to this restaurant. Service is poor as the waitress didn't feel like working and was doing stuff around the bar to avoid serving customers. And the price was just outrageous. I am ashamed they use the name Andalucía in it as I am andalusian and that place doesn't represnt us.

Great to have a restaurant that stays open after the theatre

Extremely unauthentic, poor food and for what you get massively overpriced Paella - tasteless slop in a paella dish (not cooked in a paella dish) Iberico ham - no, cheap ham Razor clams - sandy If you know and like Spanish food this is not the place for you.

Good value Spanish food, friendly service, perfect location for a pre-theatre dinner.

Brilliant food, such friendly staff and had a lovely meal. Definitely recommend the tapas, especially the salmon and cod stuffed pepper

Very disappointing food. Really poor quality “cafeteria” fried food. One dish (white bean stew) was terrible and we actually sent it back due to a chemical taste: seriously don’t waste your money here.

Our booking was at 5pm but the restaurant wasn’t ready, workmen were buzzing about fixing things, tables were still being set etc. firsts item we asked for wasn’t available. All was ok once they got going but not quite the experience we hoped for.

Comida riquísima, calidad-precio totalmente recomendado, camarera super simpática, volvería a repetir cuando vuelva. Recomiendo calamares fritos y patatas ali-oli.

Small restaurant, we was looking forward to having a nice meal up London on our yearly date night. What a disappointment! For £80 you get Iceland food without alcohol. It was boring, it was basic, no flavours, no seasoning. It felt like kids party food. Worst tapas I've ever eaten and for the price! Ruined our yearly occasion.

Food was lovely and service was fast though not rushed.Pricesvery reasonable and waitress really friendly.We we’re going to the theatre (Harold Pinter which is a couple of doors down from the restaurant) so they must be used to people being time restricted

Charming as always. Friendly, polite and prompt service with lovely food. Perfect for pre-theatre.

Wonderful food and cozy atmosphere.

Really good restaurant great costumer service I see a lot of people complaining about prices people need to understand the economic inflation. The loud music is not even that loud. Spanish cultures is about music is completely normal

Amazing atmosphere and great food.The music is awesome as well.Would absolutely recommend this place.😁

Went with a group of friends on a Friday night and had a last minute booking. Did not regret. BEAUTIFUL, tasty, authentic tapas. Extensive wine list and EXCELLENT value for money. Highly recommend!

We chose this for a pre-theatre dinner with friends when we were visiting London. It's very good. Nice friendly welcome, very good tapas promptly served, and altogether a lovely friendly atmosphere. Most seating is downstairs in the basement.

I've been here a couple of times for dinner before an evening show at the Harold Pinter or the Wonderville Cabaret. The food has been delicious and the service great on both occasions. We've gone for about 5, mainly veggie tapas dishes between 2 which is enough for an adequate but light meal. It does feel a bit on the pricy side, hence 4 stars overall, but I guess the location and convenience are enough to bring me back. I wouldn't want to go in feeling too hungry as the overall cost would sky rocket as the number of tapas dishes goes up! It feels cosy and the service has been friendly and homely which is super nice for Central London.

Excellent food, excellent wine, best value in soho

Comida española 😅😅😅rte regentado por portugueses o por lo menos el que atendió,hay cursos de cocina española gratis por internet. Bb

Premises are a bot dated compared to a lot of other tapas type places nearby, but has a feel of somewhere in a local Spanish village…… Food was mixed. Decent flavour in Gambia’s Al Ajillo, but nowhere near enough sauce in the dish. Chicken Al Ajillo was a bit dry and missing some depth of flavour. Pan de Ajo was very basic and like something from an Italian restaurant. Pat at Bravas had a vey spicy sauce and were okay. Nowhere near the best tapas place we have eaten in, but okay overall

The food is good. Nice little place. Kind service.

Lovely restaurant. Food and staff were excellent. Sangria on a hot evening was great though a little expensive. The tapas was varied prawn’s particularly good. Great for pre theatre or just for a meal out. Ambiance scored lower only because a very small restaurant and original table was in a cramped corner but staff willing to move us when table became available. Great little find !!

Small tapas restaurant in the heart of London’s West End. Very tasty dishes with a good range of tapas plates. The main area is downstairs in a basement with a small upstairs seating area. When full was tight and loud. However great food and service.

Great restaurant - very authentic - would definitely recommend

Excellent family-run place. We had ann enjoyable meal - salad, mushroom croquettes, octopus, and sardines. All were tasty, hot, and fresh. Perfect, convenient location.

It is a lovely small rustic tapas bar down in the basement - which is lovely and cool in the heat of summer . The food is very good, service is excellent and the ambience is great.

Had a very pleasant dining experience here - I bought flowers for my girlfriend’s mum, and they were even accommodating enough to provide a jug with water and place in the centre of the table. Food tasted nice but not the same quality that I’ve had in Spain. Overall a pleasant experience for some good value for money food in the heart of London

This is a very small restaurant downstairs below the street level. The tables in the photo on street level were empty when I arrived. The basement is cozy and also extremely loud. There was a large group there that was boisterous to put it mildly. Should have gone with my gut and gone elsewhere. The spinach crepe dish was tasty and different-never seen this on menus at Spanish restaurants in California. The albóndigas were dense and dry-probably microwaved. Wines by the glass were very reasonable by London standards. It was ok. Not likely to go back as there are many options to choose from in London.

Very small place just off of Haymarket. Welcoming staff and very nice food at a reasonable price for bang in the centre of London.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Andalusia Restaurant and loved their tortilla. It was absolutely superb! The tortilla was cooked to perfection with a delightful blend of eggs, potatoes, and spices. The attention to detail and quality of ingredients were evident in every slice. Great dining experience!

Lovely restaurant in a very central location with good service. The food was tasty without being particularly remarkable, although we felt overall it was pretty good value, particularly for the area. 5 of us ordered a number of tapas dishes (maybe around 14) and had 3/4 bottles of wine for £46 each including service. The favourites on the food front were the padron peppers, tortilla and the ham croquettes.

A nice small restaurant in the heart of London luckily we got there just as opened and got the table downstairs by the fan as hot day. The service was nice and friendly with lots to choose on the menu. We chose ten tapas dishes for four people which was enough but thought £8-9 a dish of just four items was too much. With two beers/wine each the bill was £45 person.

A lovely restaurant with wonderful service. The food was delicious.

I came here with friends pre theatre and it was perfect so I returned with 8 members of my family the following week! Traditional Spanish good, high quality and relaxing environment with friendly staff. Very reasonably priced, particularly for the central location. I will return again.

Pollo empanadas were basically very dry chicken tenders and my son found a hair in his. They sat us right inside the doorway and it was very hot in there.

We went in on the off chance as we fancied Tapas and we certainly were not disappointed. We were greeted warmly and quickly shown a table. I have to say the wine menu had a good variety and we went for a white Rioja. The one thing you can always rely on in a Spanish restaurant is the white wine is cold ( as it should be) and very good. We had tomato on bread, chicken in white wine, and the chicken was so tender, potato brava croquettes, and a cheese platter with quince jelly. We are veteran Spanish tourists and I have to say the standard of the food was extremely high and very reasonable. We will definitely be returning & spreading the word on this gem.

Great little find in the West End, very reasonable prices and a authentic atmosphere in this little restaurant, service was good and friendly and the food was excellent served when ready as we had a lot of tapas ,The wine list was also very reasonable, we had a lovely rioja for less than £28.00.

Staff were lovely and food arrived in good time The food was expensive and wasn’t packed with flavour. The portions were ok sizes however most dishes coming with potatoes which made them appear bigger. We were a group of 7 so ordered a lot of the dishes with the octopus being the only dish we would have again. Overall okay experience but wouldn’t return personally
