Tapas/Japanese fusion with a really lovely & unusual menu (I hope they keep it seasonal & varied over time!). Loved the octopus & paella. Marrow bone wasn’t for me (usually love it). Can’t wait to come back & try the beef dishes. Highly recommend the white Rioja! ?Came back a year on for cocktails so edited the review…Fabulous cocktail menu (I’m a tequila fan and therefore biased!). Late night service slow but friendly. Ask for not too sweet if you prefer the sharp! The food menu hasn’t changed in a year, which is a shame, but plenty I haven’t tried yet so will try to come back!

We happened to come across this place by chance as we were strolling on the high street. And what a find it was. The place has a great atmosphere and is very energetic. The service was very friendly and the staff made an effort to make sure we were well settled, despite having no booking. The menu is not huge and is a strange mix of Spanish intermixed with a couple of Japanese items. The tapas items were spot on - fresh, great flavours and tasted amazing. The croquetas, padron peppers, mashed potato and patata bravas makes one crave for more. The jalapeño margarita was a great accompaniment. Overall a great findVegetarian options: Croquetas, mashed potato, tofu yakisoba

Not angry but disappointed.First time I came here it was amazing all round, tonight however changed my mind about this place and will not be back. The person who I would assume was the front of House served us and firstly forgot 1 of 3 drinks we ordered along with our food and then brought our mains before our starters, he then asked us what we had ordered after he had taken our order, and said he can’t help the kitchen is slow with no apologies for any of his mistakes and then almost avoided us all night.

Came here on a Saturday afternoon to grab lunch, specifically Croquettas de Jamon and some Duck with Pedro Jimenez sauce. The croquettas were absolutely phenomenal (Very expensive though with 4 of them being £11) however the Duck was quite bland with the sauce not adding much taste at all, being priced at £21 I thought the quality would be better. Atmosphere was distinctly bar-like and not Spanish in anyway. Service was acceptable, however they tried to cheekily add a 10% service charge for the bare minimum; Unless you get amazing service take it off if you get the charge. Overall I wouldn’t recommend, only reason I am giving this three stars is because of the quality of the croquettes - damn expensive though.

Our now favourite in Watford. Lovely service, all outstanding staff. Food and drinks were awesome, quality of the food was by far the best we have had in recent months, aswell as the portion sizes are good. Great gluten free options for my other half, Salmon nigiri was super! We will be back!
