   Great option near the central area but not heavily trafficked by tourists. Was a bit nervous about the booking given its location but was very happy with our experience. Food was very good even with a slight price premium given its location. Our servers were very friendly and helpful but importantly it was a lovely place to enjoy an unhurried dinner with company.

   A very smart restaurant with a great selection of wines. The menu was compact and offered a nice amount of choice without being overwhelming. The food was all good and we ate everything. The service was also very friendly and efficient. We felt the restaurant was very good value for money, the ambience is quite high end but the prices were average. We spent €70 each on 3 courses, a bottle of wine between the two of us and a cocktail each. Thank you for an enjoyable Christmas Day dinner.

   We read mixed reviews about La Deriva which made us slightly apprehensive about our meal there. Particularly as it was Valentine’s Day (not a big deal for us) which can bring out the worst in restaurant Schmultz! We needn’t have worried. On arrival we were brought a mimosa on the house from our waiter. Nice touch. Our waitress was initially frosty but mellowed out after we ordered. We had the bellota ham, burrata, cod balls and deep fried aubergine washed down with a damn fine mescal cocktail (which was smokey and delicious… I ordered another). There was a good vibe in the restaurant and the decor is upscale and interesting. We had an excellent experience overall: great quality food and good service. This isn’t your run of the mill tapas joint which is maybe where some people’s expectations differ. If you are looking for well executed cocktails and small plates with a ‘clubby’ ambiance I would highly recommend. We didn’t order mains so I can’t comment- if unsure, I would stick with small plates and a wicked cocktail! Would come back in a heartbeat
