This restaurant has changed little in its many years of serving Spanish food to north Notting Hill. The grudging effort at décor, the rarely smiling (but still efficient and personable) service, the cooking – all emphatically reject food fashion. On a Saturday lunchtime the place is heaving, with a nicely mixed clientele, including Spanish men clustering in the bar. The tapas are old-fashioned dishes you will find all over Spain.
