We had a deal where it was unlimited tapas for £15 per person. Came to £84 for 4 of us, with drinks, which was unbelievable for what we ate. And the food was absolutely fantastic. Staff were brilliant also. Loved it

Went for dinner for 2 at around 5.30pm on a Saturday, lively atmosphere and mixed age range with very freindly staff serving us quickly and in a polite manner. I ordered the taste of Mexico with the Chicken and beef option. It was well presented, great value for money and the chicken was delicious! Would highly recommend.
