Latinos Restsurant & Tapas Bar in Castle Point

Thank you for opening specially for my brother wake. Lovely staff and great food.

Prices are high for what you receive. Check receipt - added costs. I never write bad reviews, but unfortunately very disappointed with this place. 4 of us came here for a birthday after we had been recommended it. When we arrived we ordered drinks - 2 beers and 2 soft drinks off of their menu - they did not have one of the beers and one of the soft drinks. In the end, I ordered a lemonade, when it came, it was watered down and I let our waiter know that the syrup had run out. He assured me that it had not and brought me another, but it was the same unfortunately - just flavoured water for £4. Regardless, we ordered our food and waited. The majority of our food came minus some. We all had our main dishes so we began eating and the other dish still hadn't come. We asked if it was coming they said that it was forgotten so we said not to bother as it would take too long to start cooking it now. Food was fine. I ordered a mixed fish dish with veg (all included). Some of the fish was very chewy and the veg was just boiled broccoli and carrots, but overall, fine. Slightly disappointed by the £22 price for the main. Before we left, we checked that we hadn't been charged for the food we didn't receive and the drink which was replaced, which we hadn't been. After we had left, we checked the receipt to split the bill and noticed that we had been charged an extra £6 for adding veg to the dish which came with veg included. To quote the menu "All fish dishes are inclusive of potatoes, vegetables or salad". As we didn't have potatoes or salad with our meal, we were surprised to have been charged extra for the veg. Too late now to say anything but worth making a note to check your receipt properly before you leave. Not somewhere I would rush back to unfortunately.

Not been for a while but same friendly welcome, service is quick but not rushed. Food choice is broad but still delicious. It is still busy, a good sign, and it was Saturday night.

Reasonable food at reasonable prices.

Eaten here a few times now and will definitely be back. Atmosphere is always fantastic and the staff are always watching and on hand to help you. Food is also really good with so much to choose from. Don't think we've eaten the same thing twice and everything has been fantastic so far. Would definitely recommend going here!

Really sad to read the negative reviews for Latinos! Maybe it’s busy and noisy in the evenings because it’s very popular. We’ve been there today for Sunday lunch and it was fine - food is absolutely delicious - there were several other diners, creating a very pleasant atmosphere! The staff are delightful, the food is yummy - we had a selection from the tapas menu - and overall a very, very pleasant dining experience. Thanks all!

5 stars as always. Consistently good food, friendly staff and value for money. Very family friendly from 0 to 100. Love it.

Very noisy but it was a friday night.

Quality food cooked and presented beautifully

Been before, this time was awful , we pre booked a table, on arrival we wasn’t asked if we had booked so no table reversed we was put on a table near the door with other people standing around us waiting to be seated, the manager going around saying we are really busy, we ordered a sangria which come out of a pump it was awful, the place was so loud that you couldn’t hear anything not even the waitress or each other, so we asked if we could pay for the sangria after asking multiple times the manager turned to us and said “oh just go” which was extremely rude. The place can’t cope with big parties nor when the place is full.

Wonderful place, when you are inside, feel like you are somewhere in spain or south of france. Family run business and thats why its so good, Males are cooking and Females serving customers. Bigest tapas i ever ate, some of them should be called Mains:) very big manu, everything is Always available. This post may look as a fake but its for real as good, we specially drive there from London every other month to dine! Thanks you guys and see you soon!

Visited Latinos by change so glad we did service was 1st class.an the food was lovely worth every penny will definitely book again.

Just had a very uninspiring tapas meal tonight … Calamari was clearly frozen… rice tasted like packet rice with a few peppers thrown in .. and had a greasy texture… tasteless tomato sauce on meatball and potato’s …sadly a very average tasteless meal.. will not be returning.

This was the first time we had a meal, here,we will be back, most enjoyable 👍.

Discovered this tapas place a few weeks ago and already been there 5 times at least. Pictures don t make the food justice, i am in love with tapas / paella and over the years tried many places and I must say, this is the best. Staff is so friendly, I understand this is a family business, everyone s polite, food comes quite fast. I will definitely be returning. I would 100% recommend the pollo y chorizo in white wine sauce, it s unreal!!!

Went there for a family birthday meal ,and the staff really looked after us ,food was brilliant, service was outstanding, great bunch of staff they have got there ,definitely recommend to everyone

Friendly, understanding, and competent staff. Large table with a variety of foods all arrived at the same time and all was fabulous. There's no music, which is personally what I need because otherwise it may've been too loud to hear your party. A table across had an 18th birthday party and a large cake was brought out and most joined in the song, great fun!

The food was great, but it wasn't quiet. Far too loud, you could not talk to each other. Maybe I will try early evening.

The food here is really lovely. I had whitebait as a starter and Pollo Champiñones as a main. (Chicken breast with mushrooms in a creamy sauce). Both dishes were really delicious. Well presented and looked like a work of art. The staff here are friendly and always have a smile. Definitely recommended. Do yourselves a favour and eat at Latinos...

This restaurant is really great overall. Went here last night and had to review. The food is so delicious and well cooked. There is also a lovely bartender who was really nice to us on the phone and she plays the best 70’s 80’s and 60’s music! Felt so amazing the customer service is great.

First time eating here this evening, food was so good, had mainly tapas items and all were so fresh and tasty! Would definitely recommend and will certainly return, good value for money.

Good food, good service and atmosphere but decor a bit out-dated. Good overall experience though! Busy on a Friday eve!!

Had my birthday meal here tonight and it was great and service was fast and friendly. They did my birthday cake too!

We have been here several times as a family and always had a great experience. My husband and I recently visited on our own to celebrate our wedding anniversary and Latinos did not disappoint! Very quick to bring drinks and very attentive. We had wine and tapas followed by the best espresso martinis we have ever had, highly recommend.

Fantastic family welcome restaurant. We had a table for 5pm and it got busy very quickly. I definitely recommend booking to avoid disappointment. Food is great. Definitely recommend.

Booked a table for 8 p.m last Saturday night, good job we did as it was busy with a couple of birthday parties in there creating a good atmosphere. As always here the food was excellent and superb value for money. Definitely recommend Latinos for an evening out or for a group or a birthday gathering. One of the best things about Latinos is how you can mix and match different items. Staff are very friendly too. Try it here, you won't be disappointed

Always amazed by the food and service. Can't wait to go again

Starter of King prawns was great, mains were ok. Too hot as well.

Good food. Great atmosphere. Lovely people. It's our family fave🤗 on our most recent visit we was served by lovely Esther. We will return x

Great place. We arrived early for our reservation, but it wasn't an issue as we were the first people to arrive. Seated promptly and drinks were ordered. We had a starter of garlic bread with cheese. It is probably the best I've had. Light and airy dripping with butter. Then the mains. Oh. We ordered 4 dishes each as we've been to a tapas bar before and the portions were small. Not here! They're fairly large. Everything was great from chorizo in red wine to black prawns and mushrooms in a creamy sauce. £75 for 2 with 3 alcoholic drinks and a coke. If you go (and I really do recommend it) the advice is to order 3 tapas each, you won't need more. Very attentive staff (but not overly) and clean with limited parking close.

This is a local restaurant to me, it’s an excellent restaurant with very friendly staff, an amazing food. I would definitely recommend the Tapas.

Loud and busy, but lovely food!

Nice and friendly place to eat. Nice food and friendly staff. Always seem able to fit us in last minute 😊

Great place to eat with perfect service

Beautiful people, beautiful place, and beautiful food! Sirloin steak with chips and diane sauce.

Food amazing staff were so welcome

Yet again the food was excellent. As usual staff polite, great atmosphere, and food stunning. I always have the chicken and chorizo on a skewer, the Espetada de Pollo y Chorizo. I never look at the menu, as always have this have have done so for 10 years.

Went with friends, first time for me. I chose seafood tapas which was excellent, good size portions and very tasty. Good service even though it was very busy. Loved it all and would definitely go back again.

Have been here numerous times & the food & service are always excellent, great staff, very friendly & attentive, definitely worth a visit

Love it here.The food we had was all very nice.I had the Chicken champignon with the saute potatoes and seasonal vegatables followed by the Portugeses Cake.Very nice.Would come back again,yes it was busy but isnt that a good sign.

Good choice of food. I've now found a new favourite meal. Reasonable prices

7 of us visited Latinos, all 1st timers on a very busy Saturday night. We arrived at 19.30 and left at approx 23.00. We all had Tapas to start followed by a mains with an extra 2 Paella’s to share. The food was excellent, as was the service. The staff were extremely friendly and efficient and helped create a very nice atmosphere. Will certainly be returning.

We gave this restaurant a second chance after bad service in 2019. Service even worse this evening, and I have no idea why this restaurant was full. Not offered a drink on arrival. I had to put my hand up in the end to get any attention. 1 hour before starters came out, and very average. Mains not great, saute potatoes and vegetables hard and not cooked properly. One of our party had to go and speak to staff to ask where our mains were as some of our party didn't have a starter and it was past 9pm by this time and we arrived at 7.30pm. They were very hot on the bill, though, when I said we wanted the £33 service removed as the whole experience was under par, and we found the staff rude and not welcoming at all. Not even an apology for the poor service. Definitely will not be returning, so many other wonderful restaurants whom I would gladly pay service where it is deserved. In my opinion they take on too many tables and not enough chefs on a Saturday night to cope with the numbers and provide a good level of service and quality of cooking. Not good enough.

I’m sorry the food was first class. The noise level in the restaurant was off the scale. This place needs a health warning. We are sad to say we will not be back; somebody should take a sound-level reading.

We recently had a family lunch here for a special occasion. There were 20 of us and the food was delicious (not even one mistake was made on the orders), service was super friendly and efficient and it was a lovely relaxed atmosphere in the restaurant. Would whole heartedly recommend

Visited last night with family (4 of us) - the restaurant was full so booking for a Saturday night is a must. We were seated and drinks order taken, although my cocktail took a good 15 mins to arrive after everyone else’s drinks (with an apology). We ordered garlic bread for the table to begin with, however this didn’t arrive. We had ordered tapas - couple of errors, in that initially we were brought someone else’s order, and then when our food did arrive there were a couple of mistakes (which we ignored) and after asking twice we eventually got our garlic bread. The food was amazing and the restaurant has a real family party vibe. Towards the end of the meal I did ask for another drink, which never appeared sadly. The total bill for the meal was less than I anticipated. The staff there are lovely but last night were absolutely rushed off their feet, hence the few niggles, but that wouldn’t put me off going there again.

I have visited this restaurant for about 8 yrs and have thoroughly enjoyed the meals I've had. Unfortunately, my last meal at this restaurant was at my uncle's funeral, but what restaurants open up for a day like that? Amazing and did well. The food was hot and service was good as usual, thank you.

Visited here with friends. We regularly go to spain and love tapas but the food in here was amongst the best we've ever had. Hospitality first class

Had another wonderful evening lovely staff and delicious food 😋.

Lovely service great food Definitely go back again

No soft lighting so the ambience is non existent. Staff could have been a bit more smiley. The tapas is great. Not keen on other food they serve.

Always a delicious experience here. We drive from Watford! Amazing value for top quality tapas, served by truly caring staff. Highly recommended. Went again.. our favourite combo...the Tortilla omelette, patatas bravas, the improbably melty delicious but unassumingly named croquettas, with chicken breast and posh chorizo plus demi glace red wine fillet steak and olives and the awesome albondigas - meatballs. A glass of sangria and a huge diet coke.. under fifty quid before a well earned tip. Just LOVE this place...and get greeted like old friends.

Was lovely food, friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

Extremely busy, booking is a must. I last had 3 starter dishes as tapas for my meal which was delicious.

Make sure you book as this little gem is so busy. Lots of cold and hot tapas choices and staff happy to advise as well. Food was excellent and staff friendly and attentive.

very good food and service the waiter Salvador was very good

Love the food, love the staff, so friendly. Highly recommend.

Such a friendly restaurant...warm welcome. Great choice of food reasonably priced. Can sit up at the bar after to chat. Would recommend

My first visit in a long while and can’t believe I’ve left it too long, from the really friendly welcome to them ordering our cab we were treated like family, all the staff were so nice. And now the food, beautiful fresh food cooked to perfection, every course was excellent. Definitely will be back soon

Food was amazing, I could eat the croquettes all day!

I love this place but it's lost a star because it has removed the kidneys in sherry from the menu.....😋

As always the food is brilliant, and the staff are very nice. Highly recommended for families with kids or just parents as they have a variety of meals and drink to have Keep Up The Good Work! 👍

Great food, friendly service, good value

Wonderful food and wonderful service. Restaurant was busy but still had a nice relaxed feel about it. We especially liked the meatballs and the calamari rings.

Expensive but very friendly and the food was delicious.

I had a great meal chose the 3 dishes with a friend to try different things all very tasty great atmosphere not rushed at all we definitely go back

Great food and atmosphere with good customer service

Took my wife and kids out for Mother’s Day. We had an absolutely amazing meal. Members of our group had the paella, fajitas and tapas and everyone said they loved all of the flavours in their food. Despite the place being busy, staff were attentive...

Lovely food and amazing staff very friendly thank you .

Good place for cosy night out, very good food and polite staff.

The staff is amazing!!! Food is to die for, choose anything from the menu, I am sure you will love it

Went for a Birthday meal with friends. The food was really good. We have been before and always enjoyed our evening. The staff look after you and are very pleasant.

Amazing place for drinks and food. Really tasty and lovely. Great place for a laugh. Good staff and up for a laugh!!

Good restaurant for families and friends night out. They make a fuss of the birthday person which is very sweet. Shared a lovely Paella. Great service and excellent staff. Only criticism is the seats aren't that comfy. An all round nice time though.

70th birthday celebration, staff were lovely & helpful

The Xmas dinner was appalling value. They couldn’t manage a large table with everyone given the wrong meals. When some guests said they didn’t enjoy theirs they didn’t do anything about it. Even charged everyone a service charge on top

Lovely meal, thank you to all at Latinos.

They should stick to what they do well…. namely tapas. We were part of a large group out for a Christmas meal who pre booked our starters and main courses. It worked well by having a cash bar where drinks were paid for individually. It...

Fantastic evening celebrating 21st birthday of twins, food was delicious so much to choose from, staff went out of there way to make sure everyone was happy, Easy access for wheel chairs and buggy, NO disabled toilet

Always a pleasure to go to Latinos. Lovely people, great service, quality food and terrific value. Always 5 stars.

Great tapas. Lovely friendly staff and well priced. Meatballs are fabulous. No rush to leave your table. Well worth a visit

Very nice . we had a family celebration there 15 of us,and we were looked after very well and the food was very good . Would go there again without a doubt .

Lovely food and the staff are very welcoming. A great place to celebrate a special occasion x

Do love a good Tapas restaurant and they did not disappoint. All dishes were very tasty and they certainly did not scrimp on portion sizes and ended up with a very reasonable bill as well.

Great food, service was excellent only complaint would be the chairs covered by clingfilm to protect the seat cover looks tacky and they are uncomfortable

Fantastic food and good service. Its a bit crowded with tables though and can be noisy. We will be back for the food and ambience!

Very pleasant staff attentive food superb must visit not expensive reasonable priced, good portions given

Always good food and great service

Very nice. Service and food excellent.

Always such a friendly service with a great menu which includes lots of GF options now, clearly displayed on the menu which is great for me. I had the paella last time and it was delicious!! The staff are always chatty and friendly xx

Great food, fantastic service, what’s not to like!?

Very good moment good food stuf friendly i never forget🍓🍓espetada tradicional.

Wide range of tapas and main courses. Friendly and helpful staff.

Another great meal at Latinos. Service was very good and they were attentive and accommodating. Food always a good quality. Would recommend this restaurant

Great food and excellent service reasonably priced

Nice meal good service would recommend this restaurant

Worst steak I've had in years tasteless and tough and expensive

I was there with friends yesterday. We tried different tapas and it was really nice. The service was fantastic. Definitely going back in the future and I would recommend this place to others.

So disappointed, this place has to of changed owners in the last few years ! Food plain , a selection of vegetables is not one portion of the same veg! At £1.25 a portion, I could of bought 3 lots of broccoli at the supermarket....

Absolutely stunning food. Real traditional Spanish restaurant with perfect tapas dishes. Excellent service even when busy. Good selection of food and drink. Looking forward to visiting again soon
