Highly recommend the tapas here, every dish was absolutely packed with flavour! Personally enjoyed the Fritura (crispy smelt) and the Pulpo a la Brasa (grilled octopus) very much. Fideuàs, noodle version of Paellas, was interesting as not many Spanish restaurants in Singapore have them. Taste was great as well! One of the best Spanish food we ha... see more

Here for the first time, and left wanting to come back for a second time and more! All dishes were good in their own right. Grilled octopus was tender, the steak was cooked a perfect medium rare, and anchovy toast was packed full of flavours, chicken thighs were succulent!

The only letdown was the fritura, which was too oily. I mentioned it and the team handled it really well. They took the feedback seriously, didn’t charge for the dish, and even offered a Spanish ... see more
