The charming tapas bar on Essex Road effortlessly transports diners to a cozy corner of Spain, with its intimate atmosphere and meticulously curated interior. As you delve into the menu, you'll discover a selection of authentic Spanish dishes that promise exceptional quality in every bite. Favorites like the ham croquettes and black garlic chicken are standouts, exuding robust flavors that captivate the palate. The gastronomic journey here also boasts less conventional delights such as the hearty lamb stew with mashed potatoes and the inventive turmeric chicken. Owner Ovidi ensures that each visit feels warm and personal, often pausing tableside to recommend the perfect wine pairing from their eclectic list. Though service may be leisurely, perhaps reflecting the small staff's personable approach, the exquisite cuisine and inviting ambience more than justify a meal at this delightful spot.
