Perfect spot for a date Mr. Pepe made our date perfect. There are no words to describe how good food and hospitality was. If you are looking for a place to eat good food drink good wine and spend quality time together it is the spot that you are looking for. Thank you so much Don Pepe for a night that we would not forget.

As a spanish I can say this restaurant offer athentic spanish food. Pepe treated us very well. We ate tapas: Galician-style octopus, mussels with tomato, and Roman-style squid. Then, as a main dish, we ordered paella. The truth is it couldn’t be tastier. This is the best option in London if you want to eat well and at a reasonable price. The same quality you will find in Spain.

Como espanyol puedo decir que este restaurante ofrece comida autèntica. Pepe nos trató muy bien. Comimos tapas: pulpo a la gallega, mejillones con tomate y calamares a la romana. Luego como plato principal hicimos paella. La verdad que no podria estar mas rico. Esta es la mejor opción en Londres si quieres comer bien y a un precio razonable. La misma calidad que encontraràs en España.

I and my latest fling dropped by don mr Pepe for a dinner that was desperately needed in London Town. We arrived and entered the Pepe and said “hola chicos”. Don mr Pepe greeted us and sat us down near a nice, gorgeous painting. We were very excited and hungry and giddy. We ordered a menu of Spanish omelette alongside gambas (prawns) garlic (ajo) bread (pan) et queso (fromage) with chorizo which altogether created an evening of real delight. The gambas disappeared within eight nanoseconds which was a telling result of my order. My husband said “wowzers now that is gambas 100%!” He couldn’t wait to tuck in to mucho. We next ordered tortilla, I thought it would make sense. What came was unexpected! It was not like the wraps you buy in Sainsbury’s it was made of egg potato’s. And the taste made me deliriously delirious. Bread. Wow. Fresh, warm, soft, crunchy just WOW. Overall, otherworldly flavours burst into my world. We can’t fault anything don mr Pepe did for us. He ran the show like he was doing a lesson in hosting. Don we cannot thank you enough for your service, kindness, deliciousness and grace. Viva la Vida Pepe.

It's a restaurant with a great atmosphere that has been around for 50 years. All the food is delicious, and the attentiveness and service are excellent. The store staff treats customers cheerfully and pleasantly, regardless of their race! Everything is expensive in London, but the price was affordable. I'm sorry that the two of us couldn't finish the paella. But you can take out the leftovers! I think this is a restaurant that is loved by locals and regulars. Please stop by and check it out when you come to London! ! I was able to make a reservation from Google! gracias!!!

Don Pepe feels like a very authentic traditional Spanish restaurant. It’s comfortable and rustic rather than edgy and exciting. The overall quality of the dishes is excellent and the prices are low. The owner is a lovely man and sets the tone. Our Monday 7:30 booking was based on reading thefork reviews. We were slightly disconcerted that it was so quiet when we arrived and it didn’t get busy. In consequence there wasn’t much ambiance. It might be different at peak times.

Excellent, quality food. I would say typical place, Spanish, a bit of a 'strange' neighborhood but close to the metro. So convenient to reach. The All very good tapas. Paella I am told is very good, but the waiting time in general is a bit long. Only for that 4 instead of 5 stars. Probietario was one of the first in London with a tapas restaurant. Great person. If you are looking for a place without atress with typical Spanish food from 69 what a restaurant. Oldest Spanish restaurant in London (since 69 he told us)

Excellent little Spanish restaurant that we found for our anniversary trip. My wife's dad is from Spain, so she's pretty discerning when it comes to tapas. We ordered 6-7 different ones along with sangria, and we were as impressed with the food and drinks as in Spain. This restaurant shows why there's no need to try to "elevate" tapas- with excellent ingredients and cooking, the food speaks for itself. When we're in London again, we will definitely be back!

A memorable experience, and in a terrible horrible way. Arrived before 7, ordered calamari, spinach and paella around 7. Nothing, absolutely nothing came till well past 8:30. I almost fainted with hunger. Not even a piece of bread was offered during this entire time. The restaurant was practically empty. A party of Spanish speakers arrived after us, and they were entirely focussed on serving them. There were no other diners. The lone waiter was drunk, they pretended not to understand English, exceptionally rude and pettey much made us feel as unwelcome in as many ways as possible. A nightmare really.

Don Pepe is a classic Spanish restaurant that has been open since the 70s, and it is by far the best and the most real Spanish restaurant in London. The quality of the food is as good as the one you have in a small Galician village. The octopus is from Vigo, which is super rare, and ridiculously cheap. Staff are all from Galicia and they are super friendly. A 10/10 place.
