"I had recommended my birthday party after my daughter. there were 6 of us, and I have to say it was a bit of a pressure as it is tiny. but could still move and it was not full. many choices and everything we had was delicious, I would highly recommend gambo pil prawns) so good! all courts were appropriate. would definitely go back."

"Very authentic spanish cuisine. We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was empty apart from us, so a very quiet and chilled experience! Outstanding tapas, sangría and attention. The cook even came out to ask about our food. As a Spanish national living in London, it's a treat to be able to taste the flavours of home, would highly recommend!"

"Unfortunately, the restaurant had no record of my booking, but luckily it wasn't too busy and we could get another table. Great to have 2 4 1 cocktails and spirits, and good food as always, especially with our 40% discount coupon."

"This restaurant wasn 't listed for 'don 't take cheque from Open Table ' yet they refused to take the cheque. I wrote the comment section mentioned to bring the cheque and restaurant re-confirmed the reservation so I presumed they are fine with the cheque. Not a great service by Open Table."

"We had a reservation for 6:30 pm at the restaurant, which was quiet at first but started to get busier and louder. They had a special offer on Tapas before 7:00 pm and a 2 for 1 deal on cocktails. The food was delicious, although I thought the dessert options were a bit lacking. The service was excellent, with friendly and attentive staff. I would recommend La Tasca as a lively and energetic place to enjoy a meal."

"After being seated and given menus, we asked if there were any heaters as it was very cold inside the restaurant. We were told the heating was broken, we decided that we might warm up once we got some hot food drinks. We don’t live in the area and had made the journey especially as we’d eaten here twice before. The food was good but got cold quickly as both the serving dishes and air temp was very cold. We ate quickly and asked for the bill. The waitress wasn’t very sympathetic on leaving we saw rugs on chairs near the door, which we could have been offered, or maybe they could have offered a free hot drink? We were very disappointed with our visit and found another eatery to have our dessert coffee. Such a shame as previously it had been very good."

"La Tasca was not aware of my booking but there was space available anyway. The food was fair and took an age to arrive. It took over an hour to receive some bread and other dishes. They did not have enough staff which meant the service was very slow. In the end a simple meal took over two hours. Based on my experience I would not dine here again."

"that has turned out to be a wonderful surprise! my partner and I stayed an dinner while at the metford centre at one night, and I admit that I had gone with quite low expectations (one of my previous shopping center restaurants had ever had gone well before/were just from the need to please a group) but that ended my socks out! we were hit at the door and sitting right away. our server was a very pleasant woman who took our drinks food orders in time, and we did not have to wait long for our meal • their vegan/gluten-free offers were quite limited, but we could share the paella for two, it was absolutely beautiful! full of color and taste, it reminded us both of a dish with love home, and proved to be two more than enough food. it is actually a few weeks since our visit, but we are still talking about the paella that plans to visit again soon!"

"I was really disappointed with the food. None of the food was that hot and the Festival of Mushrooms was virtually cold. The Paella Pizza turned up covered with something that tasted like cleaning fluid. I was told it was a creamy truffle and parsley dressing. Had it been listed on the menu I would have asked them to leave it off as it made the already oily pizza, inedible. The Huevos Cabreaos came covered in Alioli but this also wasn 't listed on the menu another dish left uneaten. PLEASE can you list all the main ingredients on the menu and please try to serve the food hot!"

"I have really bad fear especially when it comes to ordering, but this beautiful lady called kaitlyn (blonde haare) was so friendly and patient I felt so calm. she has spoken so much respect with us and I will definitely come here from now on! Many thanks to her, not many people are so!"

"It's 6 months since we were last here. We had an excellent evening. We had deliberately chosen a Monday evening because one member of the party is pretty deaf (me) and we thought it would be quieter. Actually there were fewer people in the restaurant than last time but the noise level was difficult for me. We loved the variety of food, the wine was excellent and the service was outstanding. There's a lot of competition to be the best tapas restaurant in London and none of us knows of a better one than Boqueria. Thanks to all"

"Overall, the restaurant was quite good. The standout dish was the pork belly, which was particularly delicious. We visited on Mother's Day and everyone in our group left satisfied and happy."

"I advise not to book through open table. We were told upon arrival that our booking was not valid, and that they were fully booked. We were also told, this had happened before and they had no access to the system to turn bookings off? So you’re happy for people to make wasted journeys for special occasions and turn up to be told that their reservation isn’t valid? Very strange. It was Father’s Day and we travelled one hour with a 10 month old baby. The manager was happy to politely apologise and have us on our way, no offer of a voucher or much effort to ‘fit us in’. We politely pushed for any alternative table at all as we were desperate. We were then offered to sit outside (not really the special meal we came for nor particularly appropriate with a baby) but after sitting at the bar and scouring the internet to find a table anywhere else we accepted sitting outside as a last resort. We were then given our diet cokes free as courtesy. We like to think we are very polite, so we accepted the mix up and didn’t say anything despite there being 8 tables free inside the restaurant. We kept quiet thinking perhaps they were expecting an influx of bookings soon. We were however quite shocked that 1 hour went by and still there were 8 empty tables available inside whilst we remained outside? We could have sat inside for however long was available and then moved outside which would have been better than nothing? Again. It just seemed a very odd decision on our part, maybe an explanation would help if this were to happen again. From a customers point of view it was baffling. Further to the point above, not at any point during our stay was there ever full covers on the tables. There was always empty tables available inside. We would have even been happy with a maximum table time if that would have been offered to us. Moving on to the food, Our bread starter was nice, no complaints Our roast dinner again was nice. Everything came pretty quickly. However, it went downhill from here. We got forgotten about for a very long time after our mains, we waited an exceptionally long time to be asked if we wanted dessert. We actually finished our main and starter within 1 hour. However we spent approximately 2.5 hours at the restaurant, waiting for a waiter to come over to take our plates away and ask us if we wanted dessert. Dessert finally came, which was quite possibly the worst desserts we’ve ever experienced. I ordered a cookie and ice cream which ended up being goo and ice cream, the ‘cookie’ was non existent and was infact just goo that would drip in a soup consistency from my spoon. My husband ordered a sticky toffee pudding which wasn’t cooked. We had been polite the entire time, despite our frustrations. We were quite honestly just baffled, and although staff were very polite. We just couldn’t understand our experience. We politely asked a member of staff if the desserts were supposed to be like this and we were told, absolutely not and that they would be taken off our bill. We received 20% off, and our desserts and initial drinks were taken off which was appreciated. It’s difficult to get out with a baby, so it was disappointing that this was our experience on my husbands first Father’s Day, which was supposed to be a special day for us."

"we hadn't read any reviews before we got in. first impressions were mixed, it looks dated, but that didn't put us down. the service was a quiet type of elite. the menu was typical tapas but basic. eating would have been good, but. the smell of oil was like a fat spoon. the patatas bravas were stinking brat potatoes. prawns had burned deep coolers and Poop-Shoos. the dead bread was good. this place could be much better, I would not go back or recommend."

"slow service. when we finally served and placed our order....the waitress came back with a drink and then on to tell us there were 0/5 of the red wee available on the menu. then when we ordered food: we ordered the days special (seafood paella) she came back to tell us that it was not available now. that should have been said when we were sitting. we left without eating and an expensive £5 soaking bill for 2 softdrinks that we didn't even want, as we couldn't eat what we wanted. poesie"

"exceptional restaurant, eating is well presented, seasoned and paired. all lamb and bark dishes are perfectly cooked, only melt in mouth. the seafoods were all cooked for perfection, such a joy with calamari, which was not as gum and the garnish dish that I had was amazing. the price is more than reasonable, the beverage selection is extensive and includes traditional Spanish refreshments. the employees have the same weight down, do not make them uncomfortable by making every two minutes, but never make them feel without service or waiting for a drink."

"We went on a Saturday night but had pre booked. It was busy but not overly. It took 5 minutes to be acknowledged, a further 5 to be seated, 20 minutes for our order to be taken and roughly 45-50 minutes for us to receive (some) of our order. Given we had a 2 year old with us was a bit frustrating as by the time the food came, there was no interest in eating. We were looking for where the food was cooked and more than disappointed with it being microwaves in the centre of the restaurant. Staff in “kitchen” were on their phones and unbothered about getting orders out. We didn’t even receive some of our order, which hadn’t even been taken off the bill. The food was cold, staff didn’t care for our custom and food “cooked” in a microwave-oven. Not worth the £6-£10 for each dish"

"As lovers of tapas and paella, myself and my husband were excited to visit here on a date night away from our children. We ordered a mini paella each, garlic mushrooms, bread board with Alioli, spicy potatoes, calamari, meatballs and more (I can’t remember specific names as they were on the menu . We had to send all our food back it was like bland baby food that you buy ready made. I’m not sure what we were served but that was not tapas (and certainly not paella! . We know we’re not in Spain but as it’s a ‘proper’ restaurant that supposedly specialises in Tapas (it’s literally in the name , we thought it would be a good standard. I make better paella/tapas at home and we’ve eaten MUCH better at other places. Our waiter told us it was all cooked fresh and then when we double checked, he said it was all reheated food. (We guessed as much as we couldn’t see proper cooking facilities when passing the kitchen, just microwaves and ovens . It was so bad that I lost my appetite for the rest of the night, the thought of eating made me feel sick."
