We had a wonderful lunch at Comida last weekend. The service was friendly and attentive. There was a wide variety to choose from, including allergen free foods + vegan/vegetarian options. The food arrived promptly and was extremely delicious!! I can’t wait to return.

We originally booked for 8pm but were contacted by Comida and asked if we could move to 8.10 as they had over booked. We agreed to booking alteration. We didn't stay for the meal, heres why; We were originally seated at a table for 2, and after settling in for 5 minutes we were asked to move to a table at the window, which was very small and far too close to the table next to us. When we looked over at the table we were moved from, there was a young couple sat at our original table. When I asked why we had been moved, the waiter didn't have an explanation and he seemed embarrassed at being caught out but couldn't move us back as the young couple were already seated. We then left immediately. We have eaten at Comida before and although the food was good it was definitely nothing out of the ordinary. The vibe in here is quite pretentious and I don't think I will be going again because I don't want to suffer the same insult. We are an honest working class couple aged 52 and 50, I work in construction and my partner is a nurse but I don't think this is the demographic Comida are aiming for. Please take this into account when considering booking a meal at Comida.

After a few beers Albrecht decided to sample some tapas. It was quiet early doors but apparently we got the only unreserved table. Enjoyed a good selection of food washed down with Estrella. It had indeed filled up by the time we left so booking is a good idea.

The food was really good overall, apart from the Jamon which seemed normal prosciutto and the churros being fried in the same oil as everything else which made them taste garlicky and weird.

We visited here while staying in Kendal for a long weekend. We booked online in advance and on arrival were quickly seated. The restaurant is quite small with a contemporary feel. The menu was reasonably extensive but there was no guide on how many plates to order, so we went with 5 which is pretty standard for when eating tapas elsewhere. On giving our order it would have been good to get some advice on plate size and recommended number of plates. Plates arrived in quick succession and while the food was delicious, the portions were much smaller than we anticipated. By the end of our 5 plates we were still pretty hungry! We ordered the cheeky churros for desert and these again were delicious. The price was very reasonable including drinks, but we had to grab a snack on the way back to our hotel.

We grabbed a late afternoon table before the evening rush, so it was pretty quiet. I've been in before and mainly just had drinks and churros. It's a lovely room. The light floods in, and the decor is very cool. On this occasion, we spent just over £20 each on bread, potatoes, and three mains. It was all so tasty and perfectly cooked. Looking forward to coming back to try some more dishes!

We ate at the pub next door, which we believe is part of the Comida restaurant. Apologies if it isn’t, but that’s what we were led to believe by your waiter. Here’s the story of our meal: We wanted to try Comida after seeing good reviews online but, honestly, we don’t have many positive things to say about it. We didn’t have a booking and there were no tables available for us, but the nice waiter told us to try next door (the pub), as the food is exactly the same, no difference whatsoever. Off we walked the 30 seconds to the pub. The place wasn’t busy, maybe 4 or 5 tables taken. First thing we noticed was how cold it was. Not freezing, but uncomfortable. We found our own table and grabbed the menus ourselves. Order was made at the bar and the lady serving us was quite pleasant. There was obviously some confusion with table numbers, as we kept seeing servers walking around to every table, tapas in hand, and asking whether customers had ordered them. This meant we received 2 dishes that had already made the rounds (bread and calamari). Eventually we received the rest of our order, or so I thought - we were still missing the Valencian fried chicken. Not wanting to eat with our hands, I made another trip to the waiter station to get some cutlery, plates and serviettes - no one cared enough to bring us some. Patatas Bravas - they were clearly double dipped, i.e. fried and re-fried. They were almost see-though (clear sign of being deep fried twice), oily and so beyond crispy it was tough to bite into them. I could tell they’d been sitting out in some chip basket and quickly dipped again to warm them up. We didn’t finish those. Albondigas - if I was a betting man, I would put money on them patiently waiting under the hot lights for someone to bring them to our table. Any part of the meatballs that wasn’t hiding in the tomato sauce was dry, hard and darkened. We didn’t finish those either, but the sauce was ok. Roasted cauliflower - there is “roasted” and there is “burnt”. The ones we received were the latter, as in, the top of them was black. Again, probably too long under those lights, waiting for a hero to come and save them. Valencian Fried chicken - this could’ve been a good dish, but again, it was so dry and hard to bite into, I guess it suffered the same fate as our previous choices. Paprika mushrooms were good, so was the bread, and the calamari, despite them being a bit cold due to the numerous trips made to other tables before it reached us. Why am I leaving this review here and not on the pub’s page? This is your food, and it’s a disservice to you and a deterrent to potential customers to have it served in such an appalling state, with so little care for “your” customers. No, we didn’t complain to anyone about the food. There was no check back at any point during our meal and we just wanted to leave ASAP. I think we lasted less than an hour in there. The night wasn’t all a disaster though. We went back to the lovely pub where we’d had a great meal the previous night and had dessert, served by someone who was actually happy to have us there - the highlight of our gastronomic evening. We’re not interested in going back for a second visit but I felt this should be highlighted.

Comida is by far my favourite eatery in Kendal. The kitchen team deliver high quality ingredients combined in carefully prepared and striking dishes. Spanglish breakfast or poached eggs sobrasada is good for a budget or if you want to push the boat out every tapas I've tried has been amazing. They have WiFi and good coffee too.

Our 2nd visit to Comida and we enjoyed it more than the first time. We booked for a pre-concert meal and were overjoyed with our evening tapas selections. Not an extensive menu, but who cares when the food is this well prepared and presented, especially the bread and butter pudding with chocolate - heaven. Very highly recommended, we will be back on our next visit to Kendal.

Really nice place. Friendly, and attentive staff - without being intrusive. The food, as you would expect with tapas, comes as it is ready. It was nicely prepared and piping hot. I really liked the meat balls and the mixed platter. Padron peppers were good too. My wife enjoyed the spicy King prawns. Not too pricey a sharing platter, 4 different 'small' plates and 2 beers - £46. We found this food sufficient for two. Order more at any time if you are still hungry. We will be back soon.👍

Tapas dishes were good, served in quick succession which will suit some but not others. Nearly all the drinks we tried to order were out of stock so we ended up with just tap water. The toasted beans at the starter were stale unfortunately. Service marked down a couple of stars for not bringing us one of the desserts ordered. It's a busy vibe and the music was good, nice decor and lovely big windows onto street. Nobody rushed us out which was nice, given how busy it was.

Went in here to eat tapas at 16.00 hrs and was told to come back at 17.00 hrs, so we spent an hour round kendal and when we returned we were told all tables were booked. Shocking customer service and no option at 16.00 hrs to book a table for later. This was going to be a birthday treat but will never return as the the same lady told us at 16.00 and refused us at 17.00 hrs.

Superb! Couldn't have enjoyed this experience more! Beautifully prepared food, wide choice of dishes, all of which are imaginative, presented attractively, and taste fabulous . The lovely bonus for us was the gluten-free options. My partner is gluten intolerant. Unusually, there are loads of dishes to choose from here. It's not often my partner and I can share a meal together so easily, so if you have gf diners in your group, this is a great place to dine out. Staff are really friendly, informal, but professional, and really helpful and informative about the food on offer. Our waiter introduced us to Bombon coffees! Quite a revelation. Great experience in every way. Not surprisingly, it's advisable to book if you want to sample these delightful dishes. Great value for money all round, too. We will be back really soon, with family next time. Thank you, Comida!

Gorgeous spot with a lovely atmosphere but sadly was met by a very unfriendly and unhelpful staff member who, when asked if they had a table for 4 - not only rolled her eyes and sighed before saying she would check after we mentioned we didn’t have a reservation - came back very short and brief to say. “Uhm no. Nothing.” When there were 5 empty tables. We don’t mind being turned away - it’s really just the eye rolling and unwilling attitude that was met. Won’t be back unfortunately as locals sadly.
