"a few yards from the bank of england is hispania, an ambitious opening that in this phase is a tapas bar and business, but later in 2013 will be a 35-seat fine restaurant. the chef of the future restaurant will be michelin with marcos moran by casa gerardo in asturias,) but this evaluation is the tapas bar.<br/ <br/ the spatial features are very smart, with floor tiles and marble from spanies, bronze light fittings and a high deck. on the ground floor there is a tapas bar and a small deli, on the upper floor a sherry bar and a private dining room. the fine restaurant will be above, beside the open kitchen.<br/ <br/ the short weinlist started at £21 and had choices like cuatro rayas verdejo at £28 for a wein that they can find in the high street for £6, mar de frades sparkles albarino nw to £55 for a wein that sells at around £18, and merto tempranillo to £82. since a wein was 120 pounds, it seems bizarre to me not find any vintages. Certainly Spanish weine do not have the same level of vintage variation as more north wine growing areas, but there is certainly variation, and any interest in wein will want to know the vintage that they are about to order. slightly creamier than a classic gazpacho, had this deep tomate aroma, and exactly the correct amount of olive oil, with enough vinegar to balance the oil 14/20.) each element was made beautiful, and the contrast of textures worked well 14/20).<br <br/ service was friendly, and the waiter in the position to ask about eating without answering to the kitchen. in portions were quite generous, and three tapas would be much for a satisfactory meal. with a modest wein and coffee would come a typical bill to about £50 per head. overall I liked hispania. the cooking felt more authentic Spanish than many of the mainstream tapas bars in london, many of which are operated by non-Spaards.) surely the dishes I tried had more care and attention to them than in many london restaurants. I would come back happy and am intrigued to taste the fine restaurant as and when it opens."

From the moment you enter it's clear that Hispania is something special, the building is beautiful, the decor completely authentic and the staff welcoming. Perfect place for after work cocktails, or business lunch dinner.

A few yards from the Bank of England is Hispania, an ambitious opening that at this stage is a tapas bar and shop, but later in will feature a fine dining restaurant. The executive chef of the future fine dining restaurant will be Michelin starred Marcos Moran (of Casa Gerardo in Asturias), but this review is of the tapas bar The premises are very smart, with floor tiles and marble from Spain, bronze light fittings and a high ceiling. Downstairs is a tapas bar and small deli, upstairs a sherry bar and private dining room. The fine dining restaurant will be upstairs, next to the open kitchen. The tapas were to main courses more

eating was great, but the service needs improvement. we booked a month in advance, during which time many tables were still available. when we arrived there, there were only two tables available next to the high table/bar area. we were pointed out by the one at the door when we asked to sit in another table that was still available, we were told that someone else specifically asked for this table. since I didn't want to sit on the door, we sat on the bar. However, we found out that this is not true, since minutes later a few more went in and sat in the table, we said that we originally from the one they complained about to another maitre d and...read more
