Tapas 44 in Camden

Esta vez he de decir que la comida fue un poco decepcionante. Conocía muy bien este restaurante en Belsize de un viaje anterior donde comidos y cenamos muchos días, pero esta vez pese a que la atención ha sido buena, los sabores no son los mismos que en el viaje anterior. Es como que han bajado calidad y sabores, no pareciéndose tanto a la comida española. Por eso la vuelta a este local ha sido algo decepcionante. Y los calamares no se parecen en nada a los calamares ricos que hacían antes en este local, ya verlos te quitaban las ganas de comerlos

I’m shocked to discover that this place has been open on my doorstep for a quarter of a century and I’ve only just discovered it. The important bit: you won’t find a better steak at a better price. Or a better steak full stop. Hamid and Sirous (manager and proprietor) can advise you what to order. I’ve forgotten our starters (they were good) because the steak is the story. The côte de boeuf we shared was cooked to perfection and large enough to satisfy three healthy appetites coming as it did with salad and fries. Another thing: the wine list. No wine was over £35. The excellent Côtes du Rhône that we had was only £30, a price that justified a second bottle. The dessert menu is limited but that doesn’t matter as diners are unlikely to have any appetite left after the steak. Service was superb. An excellent experience in every way.

The most satisfying meal I have had since coming to the UK. The fried rice was delicious and the tom yum soup was delicious. But is the soup with 4 shrimps priced at 8 pounds too expensive? Not counting the 10% service charge, but overall it’s still delicious.

My family and I came in after a long hard day moving house. We were served by Sophie she was great and had a lovely personality. The food was really nice especially the chicken and chorizo paella and the Amazing tastes! Great place to eat and chill with the family.

The place is very nice, the food is really good and reflects the Spanish tradition. Luca and Otto were very kind and attentive to our every request. We will definitely be back!
