"The waiter missed a an order on our starters which mean't as a family we did not eat together. The sangria is more water than wine. The main meal of paella was ok but not anything to write home about. We were charged £6 for 4 slices of bread ! Distancing and hygiene there was no SD. I could rest my elbows on the table next to me. The waiters had clearly never heard of SD given how close they would come to speak to you to the extent I had to lean back when speaking to them to create some distance. They wore no gloves or face masks and the cutlery was handled with their bare hands. It was appalling. To compare a week earlier we ate at Le Petit Aubergine in Cockfosters. The waiters wore masks and gloves. They were conscious of how they handled the utensils and food. Overall I would give La Paella Tapas a miss."

"We visited a tranquil tapas bar with a welcoming owner. Since we had our dog with us, we requested take-out and were allowed to wait in the outdoor terrace area."

"I love this place and have been many times. However this last visit not so good. after ordering a bottle of Prosecco the waitress put it unopened in an ice bucket in front of me. Then came back with two glasses one chipped not her fault) was replaced. When I then said are you not opening the Prosecco she looked at me and expressed surprise that I wanted her to open it. She duly opened it. We waited a long time and had to call for coffees and the bill. One waitress very busy in deep conversation with someone sitting at the bar. Very unusual to have a bad experience here but just thought it worth mentioning."
