    Lovely staff who remembered me from the booking. Cozy bar on a relatively quiet Covent Garden street, a rarity. Delicious out of the way tapas - lamb specialities, great charcuterie, good wine. You can hear yourself speak even though it's busy. This is probably my 4th or 5th visit and it's always great.

    This little gem is a hoot! Seats about 30 so, great ambiance and such amazing helpful staff. Very noisy but that’s ok for us. Lots of couples on dates so didn’t bother them or us. Food 5*. Just a fab start to an eve as we went on to a jazz club. Give it a go …we did and loved it!

    Our second visit. Food was delicious and fun. Service was very friendly and very efficient. We genuinely felt welcome. Fun but small tapas restaurant in the middle of Covent Garden, highly recommended.
