Food was OK but nothing out of the ordinary. The share plate we ordered was nothing you can't buy at a Deli. Lamb chops were nice, but only 4 for $27. The Paella left a lot to be desired, particularly at $38 and one could have eaten it alone.

Service was great except when they told us we needed to leave at 8.30pm as there were 2 sittings. They forgot to mention this when we arrived at 7.20pm. The wine was expensive considering there is no BYO. The bottle we had was $65 and nothing out of the ordinary.

Personally, the four of us would not recommend it to anyone and would never go back. There are so many better places to go in Melbourne, particualrly for paella. Ambience - loud. As they use to say and OH! when I sat down I asked if the table we had was for 2... no 4, so we squashed in.

Great food though the servings of a couple of dishes were on the small side. Can definitely recommend the chicken paella, divine! Service and atmosphere were spot on.

Bustling tapas joint with rustic ambience. Flavoursome tapas in small portions (same size as in Spain) Brisk service, very popular so book or turn up early.

A good selection of tapas and raciones - would love bigger portions, though ! All the major bases seemed to be covered including delicious things I'd never tried before. Attentive staff, good atmosphere, always busy, excellent churros. I'd recommend and would return again.
