Carnaval Meat & Tapas Restaurant Cocktail Bar in Dartford

We have been here twice before and couldn’t fault it hence returning again. Unfortunately this time was very disappointing, the service staff were lovely as always however none of the steaks or lamb available which limited the small menu. We had flamed chorizo as a starter which was ok then chicken and chorizo paella which consisted of a couple of chunks of chorizo and 5 of the tiniest chicken drumsticks I’ve ever seen, the rice was clumped together very stodgy and tasteless it was very disappointing. Sticky toffee pudding and ice cream was delicious but I doubt made on site. Later in the evening there was a party in the other side of the restaurant the music was very loud and the staff locked the front door where we were seated and disappeared into the party area. They occasionally popped in but it’s not the same as having them there all the time, we would have ordered Baileys etc but decided to go somewhere else in the the end rather than wait for staff to turn up. The door to the party kept opening with party goers coming in through the restaurant to use the toilet and every time the door opened the music pounded even louder into the restaurant making it difficult to hear each other speaking and was very annoying. We won’t be returning again, all I can say to the restaurant owners is; don’t neglect the business that has done you so well in the past for a Saturday night party. If you keep doing that your quality of food and service will drop further and you will lose regular customers which are your bread and butter. Also the toilets are disgusting dirty floors and walls, toilet paper all over the floor and generally dirty they’re clearly not regularly checked, such a shame to see such a lovely restaurant go down hill so quickly.

Lovely restaurant in Dartford. Fantastic food, great service , beautifully decorated. I would thouroghly recommend, menu is fabulous- Beef Cheek is a personal recommendation 👌amazing ❤️

Went with the Mrs, daughter & partner, the place looked lovely, Spanish vibe. Tapas dishes are big and tasty. We had chicken skewers, prawns and potatoes as well as white sangria. All delicious. The bill was £200 but £75 of that was for "baby Guinness" cocktails, which I hadn't had before but we're really nice, hence we had lots more! Would recommend, as service and food were really good. Go give them a try!

Very nice restaurant for a friendly local meal.

We visited for a Xmas party and wasn’t disappointed. We ordered way too much as we wanted to try lots of things. Food came out quickly. Staff were attentive. Food was really good. 1 small thing is that the Sautéed potatoes were more like new potatoes and we thought they would be fried and the meatball dish came with Potatoes so our order was very carb heavy. But the staff were friendly, we probably outstayed our welcome in the restaurant but the staff were great and didn’t make us feel like we had to leave. Food was nice and the added bonus of a dance next door if you fancied it. There isn’t much in dartford but this is somewhere good to eat.

Visited here on a Saturday afternoon when the restaurant was empty. Nice, cosy looking place with decent decor. Bread starters were reasonable, as were the olives. Also, a decent pint of beer. Then it went drastically downhill with the tapas. Four dishes. Chorizo was OK, prawns were bland and probably from a frozen pack, but the chicken skewers were inedible. Shockingly poor quality meat and tasted of burnt fat like they hadn't cleaned the grill in years. Goat cheese tart tasted like vomit with some weird tomato salad thing underneath. We decided to call it a day, pay the bill and leave. What followed next was bizarre and should concern any prospective client. The bill came and included numerous items that were not ordered. Our bill should have been £45 but this was £80. Calmly pointed out the issue. No apology. Second bill came. This time it was still incorrect and had other different items on that we hadn't ordered and was for £64. By this time, we expressed frustration but rather than diffuse the situation, the waiter proceeded to become defensive, stating that we weren't welcome back and it wasn't his fault that he had 'just started his shift'. How can starting a shift be an excuse for charing almost double twice? At one point he actually blamed us and said that you 'should have checked the bill'. Well, we did, and it was wrong TWICE. The waiter's attitude was aggressive and confrontational. Can he not understand the frustration when you have received unfriendly service, substandard food, and a completely incorrect bill twice? Worst experience in a restaurant ever and we eat out regularly. As for asking us not to come back, I think it was pretty obvious we won't be back.

We last ate at Cadiz in January 2023 and I reviewed it on this platform. Although the food was good, the service let it down, so I rated it three stars. We decided to give it another go to mark our wedding anniversary. We fancied something a little different and we hadn't had tapas in a long time, so I booked a table, using Cadiz's website. When we arrived , we were quickly shown to a table and given time to browse the menu. We ordered a couple of glasses of prosecco and also a nice bottle of Rioja to follow. We also ordered bread and olives which arrived promptly. It was the beginning of a very good meal experience! We had six tapas for our mains, including the pork cheeks, meatballs and scallops. The pork cheeks were as delicious as the restaurant owner said. Moreover, so was everything else! I made a point of telling this to the staff. The service was prompt, attentive and friendly throughout. In fact, this area was much better than we previously experienced. We told our friends about how nice our evening was and also mentioned that we brought our dog along, as Cadiz is a dog-friendly restaurant. I thoroughly recommend it for both couples and groups.

GREAT food! Great service and a laid back vibe. LOVE this restaurant.

We would never ever go back to that restaurant !! I've never had such a bad experience in any restaurants. The owner was taking the plates away even though we were still eating so we said "we are still eating". Then he kept asking if we have done. He asked us if we are having a dessert, we didn't want dessert but we were still drinking, but he got a bill straight away and told us we need to go. I said to him "we still have drinks in our glasses", he said "we need tables" even though there are so many empty tables. I was with my friend, just two of us just talking not even loud. I don't know why he wanted get rid of us. Maybe we didn't order enough for him? But about £60 for two for that kind of restaurant is not too small amounts for dinner I think. A couple next to our table were also shocked with his attitude to us. He absolutely spoiled our girls night out.

Amazing restaurant! Great hospitality!

Poor service made this a very disappointing first experience of Cadiz restaurant. Despite there being only four covers at any time while we were there, the service was unexplainably slow. The service staff/manager lacked any attentiveness and friendliness and an adjacent table also complained to us of the same thing having waited an age to get their drinks. Before even having time to look at the menu, we were offered bread and olives to which we said yes but found out afterwards come in at a price of £9!!! The olives arrived, but we didn’t see the bread for 15-20 minutes despite reminding the staff. We you even suggested cancelling it to replace it with something else from the menu, but was told it was already in the oven! However, a couple arrived after us short after they sat down and long before us. Throughout the evening we had to approach the waiter/manager to chase our orders while he sat at his laptop at the bar at the bar. From a food perspective, the food was generally okay and as others have mentioned the pork cheeks are very good and I enjoyed the patatas con huevos y jamon. The jamon croquetas, which are usually a favourite tapas of mine, however were disappointingly stodgy and dry/pasty. If the service had been better, we may have considered returning as we’re always looking for opportunities to support local restaurants. But based on this experience it’s unlikely I would recommend returning to Cadiz which is a real shame really as it doesn’t take much to be more attentive to your customers.

Here’s your 5-star review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Such a lovely place! I really enjoyed being at Cadiz tonight. I've been to many Spanish restaurants, but none have left a lasting impression like this one. The welcoming atmosphere, the excellent service from the staff, and the amazing food and cocktails were all absolutely terrific. This restaurant has quickly become my favorite, and I can’t wait to return!

The place is very beautiful, it feels like in Spain. They have tables inside and outside, an incredible terrace for sunbathing. The food is super delicious, typical Spanish food and the menu is very varied. The seafood paella and garlic prawns are my recommendations. The portions are large ✨✨✨

Very poor food quality, despite quite ok interior. Average service Defenetly a no go for me again for sure.

The restaurant is simple but well decorated and has a great atmosphere. It's an oasis in the rough diamond of Dartford. Service was top notch, the menu is wide and varied and the food was absolutely cracking - some of the best tapas I have ever had, in Spain or elsewhere. Everything was generous too, massive prawns and good portions. It's not cheap (where is!) but it's really good quality and so tasty that it's excellent value for money. It's so good it's even worth going to Dartford for!

Attended a family celebration in the garden which is a lovely big space and has a great vibe. The food was amazing, the staff extremely polite and attentive and the owners such lovely people. Go and check it out 👍🏻

Without doubt best tapas and spanish food around, great atmosphere great staff and really reasonable

Unfortunately it was Euro final and they had no one else in..But they were good enough to honour the booking, and the food was lovely and the staff were lovely, can't argue with that..And well done Spain the better team won...

Best Spanish taps bar I have been to definitely recommend

Some of the best Tapas we have had! Would highly reccomend.

This is the best restaurant in Dartford for tapas and paellas! We have been dining couple of times before with the family, but this time we were invited to a private party on their terrace. A small bouncy castle was there to keep the kids busy. The steaks were cooked to perfections, the service was great and such a lovely atmosphere! I am sure that all the party attendees had a fantastic time yesterday!

Really nice refurb and outside area is lovely. We went late on a saturday and the restaurant was buzzing. What a shame the food didn't match up to expectations. Very overpriced for what it was. Patatas Bravas were drizzled in mayonnaise which I've never heard of or seen before and were soggy not crispy or spicy at all. The chorizo was flamed but was quite tough and the calamari was out of the freezer and pretty poor quality. We never received our anchovies in oil. The bill came to over £60 with wine and 3 dishes The bread and the wine were lovely but I'm sorry to say we won't be back.

Great food, service, however, was a bit slow. Recommended, but you'll need around 3 hours for a meal.

What a lovely hidden gem, atmosphere brilliant, food wonderful staff attentive and helpful would recommend highly, spent 3 hours there and there was no rush to get us out

The restaurant looked nice, and had good friendly staff. The Tapas food portions were large (some bulked out with potato), but it was all really poor quality, nothing seemed or tasted freshly prepered, it all felt cooked from a packet or froazn, or re-heated, the cod vies for example were all so perfectly identicle in size and shape they just looked they'd come fresh from a packet. It was early and quiet when we went, but I can imagine it being really loud in there when it's busy.

Really lovely buzzy atmosphere 😍 loved the food and the service. The team here are very friendly, and we had a great evening.

Went last night as a group of 7 ladies. We had a lovely time. The food was really nice. And the Alexander cocktail was to die for so much so I have asked for their recipe. We were not rushed and was in there for about 4 hours as we were chatting and drinking after our meal. Lorenzo and his team are very welcoming.

What an absolute gem. We sat outside on the terrace on a sunny Saturday lunchtime, Spanish music playing in the background and immediately felt transported to Spain. We opted for the tapas which was wonderful. The sangria was also wonderful too. Glad I stumbled upon this lovely restaurant and am looking forward to returning and tasting more of the lovely dishes on their menu.

Lovely tapas restaurant and bar. Highly recommended

Food was disgusting. Paella was rice and colorant. The mussels were very smelly. They didn't smell fresh at all. When I told the staff, I was told that's because they're coming from Scotland... Boquerones were mehhh, croquetas were not too bad. Total disappointment for £80 for 2 people.

Staff were very friendly, we was the only people in there with it being Easter Sunday so wasn’t any atmosphere, but the gentleman and lady that greeted us and served were polite and friendly and made a good cocktail, however I was served an alcohol free cider which I did not ask for and fortunately we spotted this and returned it. Unfortunately the food was very poor, we found 3 hairs within our food on separate dishes. The potatoes bravas tasted as if they were microwave potatoes and just had a squirt of mayonnaise and tomato sauce on the potatoes. Cod fritters were pretty horrendous, barely any cod within them and not even made in the restaurant but bought in. Wouldn’t recommend. Girlfriend has never had tapas before and this being her first experience she never wants it again unfortunately.

Average food. For the price would have expected slightly better quality

Lovely place, Food is great, staff is hardworking, but I think they need to add some heads atleast keeping in mind the busy days... Do try the Veg Pasta, Garlic mushrooms and the Sea Bass with potatoes and olive oil..... They do charge for the olives and the bread that they serve at the beginning.

I think the place could do with a new more delicate menu personally, I had a nice evening and the service was lovely but the food was not refined, not horrible but not good enough to pull ne back.

A lovely restaurant. Friendly start to finish . The food was fresh and well cooked . Good range of wine . Highly recommended.

Greatcplace to eat and meet people.

Bom pra começar eu sou novo dessa área e não sei como me lidar, daí eu encontrei esse restaurante e fui com a família porque era dia das mães e a gente foi no dia 19 de março, daí o serviço era bom expliquei que eu sou brasileiro e não falo inglês mais bem pouquinho. Daí eu pedi um macarrão de frutos do mar daí eu perguntei para o garçom do que é esse macarrão daí ele falou Que é de frutos do mar, daí eu esperei por mais de meia hora, daí perguntei se tem coca cola zero ele falou que tem. Mais em fim gostei do restaurante não vou dizer que sempre volto mais na próxima vez eu vou voltar e dar mais uma chance

Having visited before I thought this would be nice for a birthday celebration. I was sadly disappointed. Service was poor with orders missed and incorrect drinks brought on several occasions. Food quality was poor to the extent we had to send dishes back. We were over charged for extras we did not have and did not order. The bill was extortionate and did not resemble the quality or service received. We will not be returning and I would not recommend.

When you go to a restaurant for dinner and you get great food, quick, efficient & professional service, fantastic environment and reasonable prices - you know you are into a winner! My daughter and I went here on a Saturday night and had an AMAZING experience - we loved it! Thank you to the owner and the entire team who made sure we had a great meal and a great time! Hope to see you again soon…….

Cardiz Tapas Restaurant offers a dining experience with a diverse selection of wines and captivating art. The ambiance is enhanced by tasteful lighting, creating a fantastic atmosphere filled with positive energy. The comfortable and inviting setting makes it easy to relax and enjoy the absolutely delicious and reasonably priced food. I highly recommend Cardiz for a delightful and unique dining experience – it's an absolute must for those seeking a special culinary adventure. 😋

Amazing as always. This time we tried the bottomless brunch and it did not disappoint. Lorenzo and his team were friendly and attentive as usual. We tried both the red and the white sangria which were both excellent. We will definitely beck back in the New Year and I’m already looking forward to trying their Sunday lunch.

I pass by Cadiz today and they do breakfast and brunches!! Omg, for 15.50£ I got one of the best Guayu Beef Burger!! Omg the flavours are amazing!! Is a gem on Kent!!… give a try!! Probably you can not find better food in Dartford!! They just open for breakfast with new menu.

Had breakfast today, @ Cadiz, they never fail to amaze us! Great variety of food, friendly environment and great customer service! 5 stars to the chef creating those amazing menus, huge and so tasty, combining British with Spanish specific dishes! I’ll come back at Cadiz every time I want to treat myself and family! Keep up the goid work guys!

The best breakfast in town ! 😍😍😍 Me and my husband have tried English and Spanish breakfast at Cadiz. The food was delicious and worth all the money we have paid ❤️ Staff were very friendly and even the chef came around to check if evryone enjoyed the food 😍 Cadiz Restaurant is our favourite place to eat , we love the Spanish food so much , we like seafood paella 🥘 and we love tapas ❤️ Also they serve very nice Sangria 👌 We had our son Christening party there and all my friends were so impressed about the delicious food they served us and the friendly atmosphere . Definitely this restsurant is number 1 in town ! ❤️❤️❤️

Today we came for breakfast and we were totally satisfied with everything, especially the food. The food is delicious and highly recommended, nothing is very sweet but not very salty either, so I could say that it is perfectly to taste or well, at least in my personal opinion. The staff is very nice and the decorations are very pretty and feel very Spanish. In my personal opinion I really recommend it.

Came for the brunch and had amazing service, the food was great and presented well. definitely would come back

Hoy hemos visitado este hermoso lugar en el que tuvimos un increíble desayuno el cual estaba espectacular. El servicio fue de lo mejor y el propietario también y por supuesto un ambiente muy agradable

Had the English breakfast and the super burger. Was amazing service from the manager Lorenzo and the food was lovely. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you for a wonderful evening. 16 of us and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. The food was fabulous and the service too. It was a really special night. Thank you Lorenzo and the whole team. Viv

Went last night for a birthday meal was excellent service and food would highly recommend 👌

Food was very overcooked and it was really hard to eat as of our party of 6 such a disappointment but it was the reaction of the owner that shocked us! It was totally disgusting he actually shouted at us for complaining our food wasn’t acceptable. We will never come back to be abused for daring to say our food was inedible. On reading your response you are the most disgusting ignorant individual I’ve ever come across! Your pathetic suggestion about using the food bank is totally derogatory towards people needing to use this. As for your suggestion that we licked our plates is hilarious your chicken and seafood paella was the worst I’ve ever tasted, the chicken was just large bones with one overcooked wing presented on the top and most of the mussel were just empty shells anyway. I’m adding a photo so hopefully everyone can see how awful it actually was. As for your comment about if want free food just ask I would rather starve than eat your horrible food and your response is wonderful so any diners can judge what sort of individual you actually are. Not once did we suggest that we wanted our food for free it was constructive criticism to forward onto your chef but you literally threw a tantrum and verbally abused us. Absolutely shameful and shocking behaviour from a grown adult and by the way one of our party speaks fluent Spanish so we understand everything that you were saying.

Food was absolutely disgusting and the service even worse. When complained the owner of the place had a massive argument with us. Would not recommend even if it would be the only place offering food services. The owner’s behaviour was unacceptable. In response to the owner’s comment: No one in our group asked for money back, they were constructive feedbacks to take into consideration and make the most of them but clearly you have no experience in running a business or how to behave with your customers. Right now I believe we are more dissatisfied in your behaviour than the food…..Bye! Second response as the owner deleted the previous one: I don’t usually get into disputes but you are the most disrespectful and disgraceful person I have ever encountered. Firstly you should sort your English out and secondly, you are so very wrong. I did not have shells with my dish nor sirloin. I had chicken breast overpowered by salt with a disgusting souce and burnt chips. Hahahahha “cleaned the dish”, not in a million years. And I can not stress this enough but we have paid for our meals no matter how awful it tasted. Lastly, show some respect.

By far one of the best restaurants in Kent and certainly the best one in Dartford and the surrounding areas. Lorenzo and the team are so helpful and attentive. Food is always so delicious and tasty, well presented and good portion sizes too. Great wine and drinks selection and the new terrace area is a lovely addition. Definitely our favourite place to eat ❤️

Very nice authentic Spanish restaurant in Dartford. Good food and good service. I didn't realise this place was here. Very pleasantly surprised.

Absolute gem of a restaurant!! Excellent food and service, really felt like we were back in Spain 🇪🇸 after a our meal we went to the back of the restaurant where there was a beautiful oasis of cozy chairs and tables beautiful!!! Can't recommend highly enough!!! Can't wait to go back!!

Food tasted good but service could have been better. We got another tables food, had to remind them of part of our order. We’re asked far too many times if food was ok, do we want coffee, is everything ok, we just wanted to sit and enjoy our food and drink and chat. Worst part for me was being pressurised when paying the bill to do a google review. Literally stood over me until I completed it saying they were not in trip advisor and needed to get 5 stars on google review!!! Not impressed by that.

Beautiful food, hot and tasty, great night out Anna, Frazer , Sam , Alberto were fantastic!! Definitely will come back, did not stop laughing, fabulous night out, garden area is like being in Spain!!

Greatcplace with great food a d great value.

Great food, great service. Would recommend.

Great little restaurant, food was lovely. Busy and buzzing atmosphere. Recommend.

Anna the waitress was lovely, welcoming and friendly. Food was good big portions

Yummy food, excellent service :) we love Anna , she was amazing, so friendly

What an absolutely amazing evening! All members of staff were fantastic and the food was beautiful - thank you Sam, Anna, Frazer, Alberto 🙌🏾 xx

Amazing drinks, food, and music!!! Lovely handsome staff❤️❤️💕💕

El sitio es muy bonito, sobre todo el jardín. Sin darte cuenta te encuentras en España en un chiringuito. El pan con allioli está delicioso y la carrillada se deshace en la boca. El dueño, Lorenzo, es muy amable además. Repetiremos pronto!

An absolutely horrendous experience and I will never return. Visited here last night as a group of 15 for my work leaving-do. When we called to make the reservation we asked if they would like a pre order and they said no they will manage, which was not the case. When we arrived, we were advised to make our food order but we had informed the waiter we weren’t ready as we were still waiting on 2 more guests… they told us that they will just make a note of it and made us order our main. The food then all came out at different times, with some people waiting over an hour for their food. A man (who I assume is the owner) approached our table very aggressively, shouting and swearing at us telling us that the service is messed up and he listed what food is yet to come out, which did not include 2 of my guests main dishes. When we queried this and said that this was not our fault that the waiters / kitchen had messed up our table order, he replied that he ‘did not care’ and we will wait 2 hours for anything ordered now, whether it is a small dish or not and refused to take any more food orders (so 2 of my guests did not eat). He then proceeded to shout at his (young) staff in front of the whole restaurant which was very awkward and and then went on to shout at a couple who had young children present, where the couple ended up leaving the restaurant due to the verbal abuse they received. The owner then asked the whole restaurant very confrontationally if anyone else wanted to leave (which it appeared every single customer did). Following this, one of the waiters, asked if we had any empty plates, despite that some of my guests were still eating, and the kitchen porter (KP) came out of the kitchen with his bowl to clear our table with the waiter. It was very apparent that the staff were quite unknowledgeable but were working under very tense conditions. Food was ok, nothing spectacular. The whole evening felt like we were being pranked and was frankly bizarre, I have never experienced anything like it. We were a very laid back table as we were busy chatting for this occasion, and we paid the bill in full, which in hindsight we shouldn’t have. I would absolutely avoid at all costs and will advise all my friends to not visit this establishment which is a shame as it has the potential to be a lovely place under proper management.

Just a lovely place to eat and enjoy in Dartford. Weather was great and having a tapas bar with a lovely outside area in Dartford was great

Had a loverly evening on Friday having dinner at our favourite tapas restaurant. The service and food was amazing as it always is, we have been coming here for over 3 years and it never disappoints. The owner of the restaurant is always there making sure everyone has the most amazing evening. Last night he had a lady celebrating her daughters birthday which the lady was so rude to all of the staff and showed no respect for other customers. Lorenzo being the great owner he is could see that it was making other guests uncomfortable the way the lady was speaking to staff as well as being horrible to her daughter and asked them to leave politely which allowed everyone to carry on having an amazing night! If only Spain could match the tapas served at Cádiz.

Amazing experience at this restaurant, been lots of times now and whenever I bring family they say how polite the staff are and how amazing the food is here. Would definitely recommend it…the outside terrace is a must in the sunshine!!!

The garden is beautiful and the food and the restaurant are superb… highly recommended

Great food ,and service, Could do with a little more time between course.

My work colleagues and I ate here last night and it was the worst experience I have ever had in a restaurant. We were a big table of 15 and the kitchen/restaurant clearly weren't able to cope with the order. Orders were missed /not prepared and some of our party waited over an hour for food. Two people never received their orders and when we asked the owner/manager about this he proceeded to rant and rave shouting at our table in front of the other diners. He made no attempt to rectify the situation/apologise but tried to lay blame with us and point blank refused to ask the kitchen to prepare anything to eat for my two friends. The same man also had another full on argument the same night with a family who had young children, again shouting at them from across the restaurant. He clearly has anger issues and no idea of customer service. I will never go back to this place again and would advise others to steer clear also.

AVOID! SHOCKING! Our anticipation was high when we booked a reservation for our daughter's 6th birthday at this restaurant, but unfortunately, our experience was nothing short of a disaster. After enduring a lengthy wait of an hour and a half, we were informed that the dishes we had ordered were unavailable. To make matters worse, the restaurant owner's behavior was shockingly unprofessional. They slammed items on our table and treated their staff with a complete lack of respect. When we dared to raise concerns about our food, we were met with nothing but hostility. Incredibly, we were rudely told to leave and subjected to a tirade of screaming by the owner. Two agonizing hours after arriving at the restaurant we found ourselves back on the street, hungry and with a sobbing 6-year-old, on what was supposed to be a joyous occasion. It was an absolutely disgraceful display of incompetence, rudeness, and severe anger management issues on the part of the owner. In a stunning twist, the owner proceeded to berate the entire restaurant, screaming if anyone else was to complain to leave as well. This level of behaviour is beyond belief and unacceptable. I implore you to avoid this establishment at all costs. My daughter still says that was the worst day of her life.

The staff are fantastic , the owner is incredibly friendly , the food’s delicious, hot and comes to the table so fast !! Brilliant atmosphere, the music , the decor , the whole restaurant is brilliant, I will be coming back often ! Even when rude customers try to ruin the night & have to be removed , the whole place is buzzing .

Good food and service, sat out on the patio which was lovely on a hot evening...

lovely atmosphere great people amazing community

Excellent food and service will definitely be back

Love the outdoor dining now - great food

I am a Chilean citizen and I reside in Houston, Texas, USA. This place is absolutely amazing! It’s a gem in London! Spanish cuisine in the middle of London! From the decoration, the taste of the food, the drink presentation, to the vibe! Completely mesmerized! I highly recommend this gem!

Great food, great atmosphere and the best sangria. Definitely looked after by Lorenzo and the team

Wicked food, and lovely atmosphere !!

Visited this gem of a Spanish restaurant, inspired by the vibrant essence of Cadiz. The authenticity of the cuisine was confirmed by none other than my wife from Cadiz herself, which speaks volumes. The staff radiated warmth, and the owner's genuine hospitality added to the experience. To top it all, the churros were nothing short of perfection. If you're seeking an authentic Spanish culinary journey, this place is a must-visit. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nice place felt a bit rushed, but food very good and the staff were polite

Amazing food, drink, music and atmosphere. Will definitely return. Staff so friendly and helpful too

Not at all authentic Spanish tapas, cheap English food made to resemble Spanish tapas. An extremely manic environment, felt exhausted at the end of the experience. Had to constantly repeat our orders. Shame because the owner is very pleasant and welcoming.

Great afternoon out 8 people. Good food, good wine. Nice and clean

Muy buena experiencia camareros y gerentes super encantadores y la comida super exquisita todo me encantó

Arrived at the restaurant without a booking , enquired as to the availability of a table. We were pleasantly surprised to find there was one available. It’s a visually appealing place, a decent space between tables, you could even imagine you were somewhere in Spain. Sadly the authenticity didn’t translate to the food . My wife and I felt the tomato sauce tasted uncannily like Heinz soup. This was a common theme with all the tapas dishes we tried. The aioli was sticky and seemed more like a greasy mayonnaise. Our table next to the bar was constantly accompanied by a ping and buzz , a microwave possibly? The waiter was extremely intense . We must have asked for more time to order 3/4 times . At the end he produced some kind of Google card with which you can apparently write a review? It was far too intrusive . I was looking forward to some really traditional Spanish food but we didn’t find it here

Very good loved the food. Will be back.

I’ve been invited to a private party which was at Cadiz Restaurant in Dartford. The atmosphere was fantastic, beautiful place, the Spanish food were fantastic and also the staff there is extremely friendly. Great memories! Recommend 👍

Good experience! Great food and amazing people working there. For sure the best place to go and have a wonderful time with your family, friends or partner 😊

Banging food. Drinks are v nice

Legend , best place in dartford

The food was so lovely, especially the paella. The waiters were super friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was great, we sat outside and it was lovely for a summer evening. I would definitely comeback here!

Such a lovely restaurant!! The terrace outside is amazing, Lorenzo is so friendly and kind. Highly reccommend.

Marvellous food, great service. No complaints.

Great food at a good price. 100% I will be going back .
