The best restaurants serving Spanish food in London

Luigi and his family and staff have been nothing but accommodating to us, this restaurant ticks all the boxes of being a VIBE - (Something which is rare in Clapham / Brixton these days with all the young and sterile professionals and ) being tasty - croquetas and bravas are perfect and the staff are wonderful. This place feels like your on holiday in Spain. I've come twice for my birthday and even bought my work colleagues from Shoreditch here too. You don't get places like this anymore in S.W London, we're lucky they moved in.

Truly the WORST dining experience I've ever had. Most of the positive reviews are old, as it used to be slightly better previously but has significantly declined. The food was tasteless, but the main issue is the appalling service. From start to finish, the manager was rude and patronizing. He began by trying to convince us that we didn't have a reservation. Even after showing him the reservation, he insisted we made a mistake and booked for the wrong day. This continued, despite us showing him the reservation with the correct date on my phone. I had to wait an hour and a half, and ask the staff 4-5 times just to get 1 drink as they kept forgetting and ignoring me , only to get the wrong one after all that. I drank water the entire evening. No apologies were offered. They forgot to bring out a couple of things we ordered, but at that point, we didn't bother mentioning it as it would have been too much hassle and more bad attitude from the staff. I could honestly continue detailing how bad it was. Nobody asked us how our meal was, nobody checked if we needed anything, we had to fight for waiters attention when it was just moderately busy. This is the worst restaurant I've been to GLOBALLY.

Ahora se llama El Toro Tapas. Pedimos el almuerzo especial, paella. Se veía y sabía increíble. Gran valor por su dinero y dos copas gratis de sangría. Comida maravillosa 10/10

Lovely place to feel the south american atmosphere! It's not only frequented by Colombians. The whole south american community can be seen around!! Large option of food and beverage!;

This is like having a tiny piece of Spain in London . Excellent , albeit rather small range of tapas. Churros and hot chocolate is wonderful too. However- Either their pricing or their portion size is very wrong?!

Invitato ad assaggiare le loro specialità, sono rimasto così convinto da entrare e provare i loro squisiti taglieri.

A disgrace to Battersea square. Member of staff proceeded to take an old acoustic guitar outside to smash in front of people. Unfortunately, he is not a tortured rock star, but another rich kid running a below average cocktail bar on mummy and daddy's dime. Please leave the area.

Deliciosa casa especial de hamburguesa "Spanglish", comer con papas fritas, papas fritas halloumi y croquetas. Es una versión interesante de la comida española / inglesa y muy buena también. Fantástico valor.

This place is operated by the same owners as Drake's Tabanco, which was on this site before Tapas 44. I haven't visited Tapas 44 but I thought the following might be relevant to potential customers: I was one of many who got food poisoning at Drake's Tabanco and the owners responded to our case extremely inadequately and unfriendly. I have never been treated in such a way in these kind of situations. We made sure to alert potential customers on tripadvisor (feel free to visit the old Drake's Tabanco review page on TA for more information) and I assume that was one of the reasons why they now renamed the restaurant. Be aware!

Embora não experimentando a especialidade da casa ( tapas) a escolha foi satisfatória : uma espécie de file de peixe empanado com molho picante ( não me lembro o nome do prato ) e, para adoçar o paladar, um profiterolli maravilhoso ( tinha acabado de ser colocado na vitrina dos doces ), tudo acompanhado de cerveja bem gelada ( ao contrário da cerveja na temperatura ambiente como se vê em Londres ). O ambiente é agradável e fomos servidos por uma garçonete super eficiente que ajudou na interpretação do cardápio pois, sendo de origem espanhola , falava português. Amigos que residem em Londres informaram que o local é muito frequentado por admiradores da culinária espanhola ( especialmente tapas)

Gran lugar para una pizza. Hacen su Pizza, con una buena base de masa agria delgada. Excelente variedad de coberturas para elegir. El personal es muy agradable y eficiente. Tiempo de espera para Pizza es de alrededor de 10 a 15 minutos. Recomiendo este restaurante Pizza si es que están buscando.

Reservamos una mesa aquí en domingo 30 de agosto y me sorprendió al encontrar qué tan pocos gente allí era comedor. Sin embargo, recibimos una bienvenida muy cálida de John, el gerente (que es que nos transferían Milton Keynes) y la comida y el servicio eran excelentes. Estábamos pagando con Tesco Fichas (haciendo Londres a lo barato) - lo que a menudo encuentras raro, pero como en cualquier otro lado de Londres, están son aceptadas como moneda y sin ningún ápice de vergüenza. Lo recomendaría Ortega Smithfield por su bienvenida, buen servicio y comida fantástica.

no puedes dejar de ir!!! vale la pena probarlo y pasar un buen rato con tus amigos o con la familia !

my Spanish friends took us there to try authentic Spanish tapas and beer. The interior of the place make an impression, but moreover is so peaceful and feels cosy and comfortable. Food is freshly made, full of flavour, colourful and dishes represent different parts of Spain. Great selection but not sure if worth the money, quite pricy but hey - its central London! However, I would love to go back :)
