This place was recommended by a good friend of mine who has dined there a couple of times. The atmosphere and decor were lovely. The food is excellent -I had the Kingfish - Yummy!
The service was FANTASTIC. Staff were attentive and friendly.
I would happily return.

My girlfriend adores anything Spanish and this is one of her favorite spots in Melbourne town. So we took her here for a surprise birthday bash around the city. This spot is always busy no matter what. Busy, busy, busy! That said I've found service never falters regardless and food is always immaculate. The Jamon is delicious and the garlic mushrooms are even better!

This place does everything right. The food is amazing, and the place is so packed that you'll find yourself gladly waiting in hallway, glass of wine in hand, for a little table or bar spot.

It's not overly expensive for the experience either, and the cocktails will finish off your night with a gentle, friendly kick.

The menu is always changing and I can't remember the names of the delicious things I've ordered (that would be the fault of the cocktails!) but if you're brave and exploratory, you''ll find that most dishes have mouth watering seasoning and sauces and they all compliment each other perfectly.

Tapas can be a ridiculous joke, especially in Adelaide where I live. Tapas should not be: a bowl of olives or something that an apathetic kitchen hand has slapped together.

This bar, on the other hand, is the real deal, I think the chef is actually from South America (again, the cocktails; we had a great conversation with the barman but I've forgotten it).

Approximate cost: $30 per person for a few tapas dishes
