The best restaurants serving Spanish food in Clerkenwell Islington London

We’ve been to the one at Gt Portland St. several times but I guess having a late lunch on a Monday in Farringdon does present some challenges. The restaurant was far from buzzing and staff were more preoccupied with clearing up rather than attending to the few customers who were still there. However, food was very good. Stand outs were the black rice and pear & spinach salad. Chorizo lollipops and patatas Bravas were good too, but the beef cheek croissant was a bizarre and expensive concoction- never seen that in Spain! Overall still a good restaurant, but not as “special” as the Gt Portland St one

Bar was closed but still served me a cheeky beer

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.
