The best restaurants serving Spanish food in South East

Really superb food - some delicate tastes yet robust portions. We really ordered a little too much for the four of us. Wonderful friendly but informative staff made it a really very pleasant evening indeed - thank you!

The food was incredible the best I've had in a long time. Will certainly go back again

A reasonable night out, with friendly staff and ok food. It is small plates/sharing, mainly Spanish-type tapas. Unfortunately a little too much fried food for my liking and not enough salads/vegetables choices. Particularly attentive service from the bar staff, as we were eating at the bar.

Bit of bizarre experience. Attended at 8:30pm on holiday weekend to check if there was a table available. Female waitress asked if we booked and as we hadn't she stated they had no room and a full sitting was due despite the fact there was dozens of tables free. This was strange as they had entertainment and I couldn't believe 70 people were about to attend. We got a take away elsewhere and looked back later in to find none of the tables had been taken as the waitress had stated. It was abundantly clear she lied about the next 9pm sitting. She looked shocked when we popped our head in again as we all knew it was not true. It's their restaurant and up to them when to accept customers but I feel this was not a manager just a lazy waitress getting rid of customers so she can have an earlier home time. Next day we attended at midday and pretty empty and got a table and had lovely cocktails and food. Would highly recommend this restaurant (as long as you are not greeted by the lazy and inexperienced hostess who doesn't care about customers or if the owners make money) The following day we tried to get a delivery stated on website they provide but not only do they not deliver they turned down us collecting food as well. Great place and great food but if I was the owner I would be horrified a couple of staff turn down trade so easily.

Three of us had the lunch h time offer at £18 each. One bottle of water I lemonade and I e put it beer was charged £86 . Think I was charged individually not charged for the offer. Make sure you check your bill.

My friend and I meet up once a month for dinner and a girls catch up. We enjoy food so pick a different restaurant each time, we’ve both been super excited about trying salty olive for ages. Based on the reviews I was expected a taste sensation, I couldn’t have been more disappointed. Firstly the staff are great, place is lovely and spotlessly clean. We also weren’t fussed about the process of going up to the counter to pick your food etc, The food. Underwhelming. Tasteless. Foods that were served cold that should only ever be served hot like tempura prawns, were just yuk! We had about 8 dishes between us and all I ate was some coleslaw that was delicious! The 2 hot dishes, were barely warm and zero taste. We were gutted and would unfortunately not return or recommend. Went to the pub and ordered some chips as I was starving!

Last night of a week long holiday in Hastings and Las Tapas was open so thought we would give it a go. Issue with veg delivery meant no Padron Peppers which was a shame. Had the Patas Bravas, Chorizo and Prawn dishes. All cooked to order. You can see the kitchen area so you know exactly what is happening to your food. All excellent. Churros and chocolate sauce, well.... Staff very friendly

We are a family with varying food tolerances, gluten, dairy, eggs and grains, plus I’m a pescatarian so eating out is very difficult. We find independent restaurants/bars are better than the chains. We spent time discussing our options with the restaurant manager who was incredibly helpful. Service and food was amazing. I haven’t had Sea bass and steamed vegetables that tasty in a very long time. Portion size was good. The others had Chicken Pad Thai which was far better than the other chains we have eaten at. A great selection of drinks, the mock tails we had were very unique. We were so impressed that we plan to book her every time we come to the theatre. You won’t be disappointed.

Lovely tapas in Esher, all dishes were delicious, beautiful interior and great service 👌🏼

1st time visit for some years, however will definitely be returning again sooner, food, service and atmosphere was excellent. Thanks to the team for an enjoyable evening with friends.

Our 3rd visit and another great meal. Service was faultless, all hot dishes served piping hot. The house red was more than acceptable as was the sangria. If you’re looking for authentic tapas and better than anything we’ve had in Spain, this is the place to go.

Was so looking forward to eating authentic Spanish food but was sorely disappointed. The food was awful - no seasoning at all and not that authentic. The paella was dreadful - cooked in the morning and reheated when ordered - a plate of stodgy rice. I would avoid this restaurant as the reviews do not reflect the experience we had or others that we have spoken to.

Amazing service ,from tiara & Anthony! food wonderful!. Would recommend xxx

Odd place, serving bottles of beer, but it has a cool vibe and a friendly barman. I could imagine chilling here for a few hours. In good weather plenty of seating outside.

Atmospheric venue good service and very nice food.
