Really nice feel and buzz to the place. Wine and food was lovely, especially the fried anchovies.
Visited twice, once for drink and tapas and once for evening meal. Great place, always busy, tasty tapas and enjoyable, well cooked dinner. Had the famous Tiramisu for dessert and it was very good. Would thoroughly recommend.

We chose here based on it's excellent rating, great steaks, and the best tiramisu I've tasted outside of Italy. Very good atmosphere and impeccable service.
Four of us had New Year's eve lunch and everything was well done, the table settings, cleanliness, food and staff service (especially Antonio).
