Delicious food. Good menu. Just lovely. Having eaten in Barcelona lots - this was as good as anything I’ve had there Paella was amazing.

Incredibly slow even though there were only two tables sat. We waited over 40 minutes for our food even though 3 of the items were simple (for example, a meat and cheese board with a single type of meat and cheese). The Pan Con Tomate tasted as though the tomatoes had gone bad. Frankly I got more joy from exiting the restaurant than anything I had inside.

It was a strange experience…. I was treating a family member and so didn’t want to make a fuss but at one point, I noticed a piece of plastic on her fork (maybe from a packet of something that was opened in the kitchen). I said nothing but actually I wish I had. The prawns tasted odd and the squid rice was more black rice with a couple dots of squid…. I wouldn’t spend my money here again.

I have never had a bad meal here. There is a good selection of food. Each amazing. You could order a tapas dish as starter and one of the 3 types of paella for a really good meal. But the best experience is ordering a selection of dishes (about 1-2 per person) and sharing amongst a group. Then finishing off with paella.

We order 6 tapas for 3 people After 25 minutes we got our first tapa (spinach) It took us more than 1h to have the 6 tapas on the table. (Most of them were veggie and did not require much preparation/cooking). We had to wait around 10 minutes after eating each tapa for the next one to come... Dreadful! The tapas themselves were small and very simple. As a Spanish national, the food was very poorly cooked and presented and lacked flavour. None of us enjoyed our evening due to the very poor service and tasteless food. Just before 10pm we were offered the dessert menu but the restaurant was meant to close at 10pm and as we had such a bad experience with the food we just left. I hope in the future they care about the service they provide and the food the my serve, I will not come again despite living around the corner.

We arrived at Tapete after booking in anticipation of their delicious looking menu. When we arrived, we were given the "one minute finger" by the man inside although we both greeted him hello and there was just one other table of guests in the entire restaurant. Eventually we were waved to a table outside with which we were happy. We sat down and menus were shoved under our noses by the host who seemed increasingly irritable. We had a question regarding the paella so tried to grab the host's attention. He made eye contact but gestured "not now" with his hand as he walked past us to go inside. At this point our mouths fells open in shock at the blatant rudeness. We took this to mean, however, that he was busy preparing drinks or something however this was not the case. When he returned he went not to our table but to the other group to see if there was anything he could get them and was all smiles. At this point we realised that it must have been something personal about our party - the other table consisting of a white family. After discussing and still failing to get his attention for service, we stood up to leave. Even though we were confused and upset by our treatment, we let the host know that we would be leaving. He could not have seemed less interested and shrugged his shoulders before turning away. Truly horrendous service with pretty upsetting and offensive undertones.

Just had the bestest summer Sunday lunch at Tapete! Amazingly tasty and original tapas and refreshing drinks to accompany our meal in their lovely terrace. I have been to this place sporadically over the years because it's not around the corner from my house but the food is consistently fresh, good and great money for value. Lovely and chilled atmosphere too. Sorry the gazpacho was not ready for lunch, but I will be back for that soon!!! Tapete is truly a hidden gem in South London to experience authentic Spanish food. Hope the flamenco nights will come back soon too! Keep going guys! 💪❤️
