This restaurant has closed down. We were not informed of this by them or Open Table. As we had been given vouchers for a Xmas present, we tried to contact them for a refund which was very reluctantly given. Do not visit any of the restaurants in this chain

Great food and wine, with a very good value for money lunch menu. Really loved the croquettes and Spanish omelette, although it was all delicious. We'll be back for sure!

Restaurant was busy which I will put down to the poor service and been given the wrong orders, my previous experience of a Tapas restaurant is that all dishes should be served together as opposed to individually, which resulted in my guest and I trying to work out who ordered what. One waiter was running about with a plate of patatas bravas looking for the customer who had ordered them, when he asked if I would like to take them off his hands I presumed it was a freebie, but I ended up getting charged for them, I’ve been in other Tapas restaurants in Glasgow and this one really needs to do a lot of work to catch-up with them.
