Barcelona Tapas - Lime Street - London

Good, if not outstanding Spanish restaurant. The food was fresh and generally well prepared dishes came quickly and were reasonably good value for money but this was sort of basic tapas done quite well as opposed to anything more. That said, this was preferable to fancy tapas done badly. My main gripe was that the service made us feel like it was more of a transaction than we were being looked after. A minimal greeting on entry, rushed ordering, polite delivery of food and then no one said goodbye afterwards. They may be small things but to have done things properly would have taken thirty seconds of a 6+ strong waiting staff, hardly something to have thrown everyone's timings out even if multiplied across 20 odd tables. Would I go back? yes. Is this a taste of Spain? Hmmm.....

My guest and I arrived at 12.30 and we were served very efficiently. The food arrived and it was really good. However, after 1pm the restaurant filled and up the staff were overwhelmed. Drinks were forgotten and the bill took ages! Such a shame but ultimately they made me late for my meeting

Good food. great meatballs! Slow service. would go back

Great tapas excellent service, nice ambiance music isn't too loud so you can hear yourself

As Spanish we have to say that the food was the worst ever. Never again. And sorry for the waiter because he was nice. That’s the only good thing there. And please, change the name for Pulpo a la Gallega ‘cause it doesn’t deserve that name.
