Reviews
Pricing were high in terms of the quality we perceived. The noodles don't taste Japanese at all.
Had a great dinner experience here. The food is delicious, especially the chicken skewers, which is very juicy. The sashimi platers are fresh and large portions, good enough for two people to share. The pork uno is the only thing that we think should be improved because the meat is a bit dry and hard to chew.
The staffs are friendly, probably because there was only two staff there during the peak time, they were a bit too busy to take care of each table.

Nice tapas bar. The food is tasty and the place feels really cozy. Great spot for enjoying yummy small dishes in a relaxed atmosphere.
The food was excellent! I would’ve liked the octopus leg to be a bit more charred, but it was done just as splendidly! The paella was nicely sized so even a single person can finish it. Great buzzy atmosphere excellent for gathering with friends or just an easy night out. Music was retro and catchy. Service was prompt and friendly.
The atmosphere for this place was lovely and it had a great selection to choose from on the menu. I went on a weekend for lunch at 1pm and it wasn't too crowded at all.
Service was quick and staff were helpful in recommendations. Food itself was well made but not WOW or memorable by any means. Portions weren't the biggest. Between the two of us we ordered four plates and two drinks and paid around £85.
Great for family, friends or even date night. Would go again for a nice occasion.

Would not recommend.
Good:
1) The service. She was kind enough when I complained about the food.
2) Sangria
Bad:
1) Food: Nothing Special.
2) Raw chicken!!! She took it back and did not charge me for it- but I ended up with a terrible reaction.
3) Hygiene: The restrooms are filthy. The smell was terribly sickening. I complained, but the management seemed to already be aware of it.
Very disappointing.

Great service and delicious food.
The only reason why I’m giving Lobos 4 stars is because of the rowdy patrons we were sat next to - who were still being served drinks despite being drunk out of their minds. Could barely hold a conversation with my friends as they were so loud.
But again, everything else was fantastic!

Absolutely DELICIOUS food, beautifully prepared and presented and at a very reasonable price. Staff are efficient, friendly and super knowledgeable.
Wine is cracking as well.
Cannot recommend this place highly enough, truly a meal that we will remember for a very long time and next time we are in Bristol, we will definitely be back!

A very delicious and quiet restaurant, with traditional Spanish tapas-type food. I feel like it's the perfect place for lunch/dinner on Sunday. The people are super friendly and I loved all the dishes I ordered.

The food was incredible - they were able to provide much of the menu to be gluten-free and vegan. We had the root to fruit menu and loved it
The drinks were great as well. Staff were very friendly and were happy to explain parts of the preserving processes and the shrub making process. Honestly, I had the best evening. I couldn't recommend it more.

Experience was good and variety of food was good too. The food was tasty though I think a bit overpriced for tapas and ordering multiple dishes. Prawn croquetas and Octopus were the best
I booked in advance for table of two, but unfortunately had to postpone my reservation. The restaurant was happy to accommodate.
We had a fabulous time here as our first visit, our waiter - Erik - showed us great hospitality and recommended delicious food. He was very professional and was patient with our questions. We ordered all his recommendations and I have to say, it was amazing.
We will definitely be visiting again, thanks to Erik and staff to making us feel welcomed!

This is a gem of place. It looks inviting from the outside and as soon as you walk through the door you can tell these people love food. Shelves full of English wine and beautiful jars full of preserved lemons and infusions of every type. Sustainable and locally sourced products dominate the menu. The food is divine, I had hake and rainbow chard and roasted new potatoes, followed by a friand with clotted cream ice cream. I couldn’t find a single fault and the bill was very reasonable. Highly recommended.
Lovely place to share dishes for dinner. Great food, nice atmosphere, and the woman serving us were very helpful. Finished the dinner with a "Spanish Baileys". Would recommend!
Delightful, unassuming, independent restaurant. I had the spaghetti carbonara, which was done just right. My sister had the fish, which she very much enjoyed. Bruschetta starter, mains, dessert and a decent bottle of wine came in at under £40 a head. Service was friendly without being overfamiliar and efficient without being rushed. Highly recommended.
We went for some tapas and drinks on a Monday night. We must have gotten there at the busiest time, but we got seated at the bar which was not bad. The wait staff seemed to be stretched a bit thin, but we got everything we asked for. The Spanish tortilla was tasty (and very filling) and the razor clams were delicious as well. Drinks were fine.
This was a bustling location, small and compact with bar seating to watch all the magic in the kitchen unfold before you.
My favorites were the croquettes, the prawn tortilla, the bread with tomato, and the beef tenderloin.
Everything is prepared with precision though and a certain quality that’s amazing to see.

Fantastic! Nice warm Welcome from Friendly staff.
Interesting menu and specials board. Loved the seafood, jamon and cockle croquetas!

Smart tapas bar with a creative and imaginative approach to everything. We had dinner for two and opted for the tasting menu - all the dishes were great and we really enjoyed our evening. The seats at the window are perfect for a casual dinner and the menu was really well considered and flowed nicely from one idea to another. Nothing felt pretentious or try-hard, just great cooking coming out of a small kitchen with a lot of pride and skill. Highlights include the smoked pigeon with the homemade pickles, the oysters were excellent and so was the trout. The fava bean hummus and sourdough starters were also really nice. We had a couple of beers from their great selection, a glass of rioja (excellent - rich, oaky and well balanced) and tried one of the vermouths which was also an interesting choice. Hats off the chef and the service team - I wish there were more places like this - it's lovely treat for a more adventurous meal but in a relaxed easy atmosphere.
Haven't been to this branch for awhile, they've moved to a bigger space, food is still great. We had the oyster which was really fresh and well seasoned. All other dishes were as tasty as usual.
It is nice that they serve small dishes as we were queuing for seats, although we didn't need to queue long, it does create a nice atmosphere and make the queuing experience very pleasant.

Delicious food, great service and atmosphere - what else could you need. We had the daily special chorizo croquettes which were the highlight of the meals for me. Also had lemon sole, gambas rojas and patas bravas, all of which were fresh and beautifully cooked.
Decent and authentic Japanese food place in Manchester.
Especially I was amazed their yakitori which was so tender and tasty! It took time to be served but it was worth to wait. I enjoyed many small plates like tapas with Japanese alcohol. It was 70 pounds getting 4 drinks and 8 small plates. I'll definitely come back again :)

Nice place for fresh, good food. Service is friendly and attentive. Nice view of the docks. Makes you feel at home. Will definitely return.
Here is a very delicious food made in the heard of Edinburgh. Turkish baklava was amazing taste 😍
Very kind staff and great service🤩

Barrafina offers an exceptional Spanish culinary journey. The flavors were a symphony of Spanish cuisine, each dish a delightful surprise. The restaurant’s ambiance successfully transported me to Spain, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The attentive service added to the overall experience, making it an evening to remember. What’s more, I was lucky enough to visit on a day with no queue, but only after a few minutes, it was full. Lucky me! If you appreciate authentic Spanish cuisine and a memorable dining experience, Barrafina is the place to go!
I always love coming here, especially for their lunch menu. I had the salmon don which is always excellent. It's always super chill & quiet in here. Their seafood is fresh & their miso soup is very delicious.
Run away!
You should feel ashamed of putting the word PINTXOS to the food you serve. That is neither Spanish food nor pintxos. That is not even food.
The only good thing of the evening was the beer. Even the olives and the artichokes, being both canned food were disgusting. I do not know what you put in the ajoblanco, but you have made me taste something for the very first time, that has no absolute taste, nothing.
Guys please… stop selling this image of Spanish food, give it a twist, because the LIZARRAN concept you use is actually very good.

First time going to a tapas place and this was an incredible experience. The service was attentive and friendly while having good knowledge of the menu and the customer. The food was fantastic. My friend said her favorite was the croquettes and the peppers which were so flavorful and perfectly cooked. My favorite were the potatoes that came with the pork as the green sauce was the best I’ve ever had. I also recommend the chorizo a vino as this was second place for me. The sangria is a must as well as some dessert. Overall, highly recommend stopping by and trying whatever sounds best to you.
I came here for dinner a few weeks ago with a friend and it was delicious. I have an allergy to sesame seeds and the staff were incredible- listing items on the menu that I could choose from and also being extra vigilant with all ingredients/ in the kitchen. it makes a huge difference to feel totally comfortable eating out when having an allergy and I would completely come back here again for this reason. Thank you for being so serious about allergens!
I loved dining here, had some of the best authentic Spanish tapas I’ve tasted. Every dish was a hit. Quality of the ingredients and attention to detail for every dish is apparent. Highly highly recommend! Limited bar seating inside, with a few tables for outdoor seating.
Pan con tomate was a great starting tapas, showcasing simplicity at its best. Delicious sourdough, fragrant olive oil, and ripe tomatoes made for a perfect bite.
The gambas rojas were flavour bombs. The shrimp was succulent and cooked to perfection.
Their tortillas also blew me away. They tortilla itself is cooked perfectly, with a runnier centre within. I haven’t been to too many places even in Spain that get it like this. It’s quite rich due to the addition of their aeoli topping.
The mushrooms with cured yolk was also a favourite of mine. Buttery mixed mushrooms topped with a runny yolk which you mix in; this dish was super indulgent and tasty. I loved the different textures from the oyster, chanterelle, and morel mushrooms.
Fennel salad was the only dish that I wasn’t wowed by. The fennel itself was crisp in thin ribbons, but was quite lightly dressed and tasted bland relative to the other dishes.

Great food and very friendly service, and the view of harbor is just amazing. A bit pricy but this is Bristol. Recommended.
We recently attended here, the staff were lovely and accommodating. The restaurant is small but atmospheric. The penne Motradini is just fantastic! Portions could be slightly bigger but the taste was out of this world!
Lovely spot to sit by the docks and have a cocktail and a snack. I was quite impressed with the sea bream ceviche so I decided to grab some other food and to be perfectly honest I probably could have just left it with the ceviche because nothing else I got wow-ed me. The venison chorizo was fine. The cured goats cheese was fine. The croquettes were fine. It was all however, expensive. I didn't really like the limoncello spritz but I think that's a question of taste, and the negroni was good. I'd recommend coming here for a drink over coming for food.
Went for dinner to celebrate my friend’s birthday. What we ordered:
- bread: good but took a long time to bring olive oil and balsamic vinegar
- padron peppers: really good flavour and quantity. Larger quantity than most tapas restaurants
- patatas bravas: sauce was flavourful, potato was crispy on the outside. Overall good side dish but nothing special
- black rice paella: standout dish! Balanced flavours and good consistency on the rice.
- steak: most reviews said the steak was the best thing at Lobos but I’m not sure I agree. We ordered it medium and I felt it was a bit overcooked.
Staff were amazing and gave us a slice of cheesecake on the house for my friend’s birthday. I’d overall say food is 3/5 and service/atmosphere are a 5.

Great food, lovely staff and service. There’s music playing though and it can be loud if the restaurant is full, so if you’re looking for a calm, relaxed atmosphere this is something to keep in mind.
Even we had only snack food but was tasting very good and definitely will try later restaurant main food . The staff are very friendly and cooperative . The service was very good . We thank the young lady for her excellent and pleasant service .
Lovely meal here during the fringe. Brilliant service from all staff who were super helpful and friendly, working very hard to provide exceptional service. Eating outside was lovely. The hot meze was delicious and very filling. Highly recommend.
Had the best afternoon at Olive shed. All of the staff were lovely, drinks were great and the food. Order 3 tapas dishes and it was more than enough. They even happily served us another round of drinks even though they were closing. Will definitely visit again!
Very pleasant lunchtime meal outside under the awnings. We had: 1 steak main plate, 2 tapas of sea bream and gambas, and 1 glass of Malbec. Total = £46.45. Service of 12.5% was automatically added (don't approve of that) to make a bill of £52.26. Food fresh and tasty, perhaps a bit small.
Gorgeous wee place on Rose Street, perfect outdoor dining, feels like in Roma.
The left toilet cabin is a tad tricky due to size but except that absolutely gorgeous food , quick service and lovely music.

We were looking for a chill restaurant but we ended up in a trash disco music place with food provided.
Very nonsense loud music that ruined our 15 minutes dinner.
We ordered a fried honey glazed flower as a starter, the ox cheek on parmesan cream ,the black ink squid risotto (arroz negro) and a margarita and a Negroni to drink.
The cheese stuffed flower arrived after 2 minutes. Over oiled, heavy but not very bad tbh.
Ox cheek (alone) arrived 2 minutes after we finished the starter.
I had that dish before and I was simply delighted by it in the past. Unfortunately that lovely experience belongs to the past.
Finally they managed to deliver our cocktails (after the starter and ox cheek?!)
Negroni was just too disappointing to be true and margarita just fine.
The arroz negro arrived 2 minutes after we finished the ox cheek (yes, the 2 mains arrived one next to each others).
Like the ox cheeks, the good taste memories unfortunately gone away.
Rice overcooked, way too much lemon and not enough sauce to contrast it.
For some reasons they decided we had to share the main dishes and then the cocktails had to be served nearly at the end of the dinner.
This whole "fast food experience" finished in like half an hour.
I appreciate it was Friday night (21:30ish ) but the place was nearly empty, so there was no reason for such a rushed service. We felt like they wanted to get rid of us asap.
Sadly the quality of the food went significantly down and the disco club atmosphere was not what we were looking for and it doesn't definitely suit this place.
+ £27 each... It was one of my favourite places but I've been extremely disappointed about everything.
I really hope it'll be back like it used to be.
P.s.
The picture of Ox cheek with peas is the "new version", the other ox cheek pictures is the one I fell in love with but no longer available apparently...

Great experience. Staff was very friendly. We didnt try a lot of tapas but the courgette with honey and goat cheese was nice. Lively vibe on a Friday evening. They had 2 for 1 offer on cocktails.
Very, very tasty food. We had lunch there. We also tried the non- alcoholic Asahi beer which is very nice.
Bigger tables for groups if in a one or two you'll probably be seated at bar type of seating. Street parking outside as well as s car park (both charge for parking).

Highly recommended. Best spot for a date, drink and light tapas on Exmouth Market, much prefer food here than the larger sister Moro next door. Wine list is small but very well put together, reasonably priced and very tasty, including carafes. We have been here several times and tried everything - do not miss the chorizo, pan con tamate, chickpeas, squid, lamb chops or raisin ice cream.
The Chorizo with honey was really delicious.
Also tried the Malaga fried fish bowl, was a little disappointed that it had more calamari than anything else but it all tasted alright with the aioli. The prawns in this dish were excellent.
They also have a couple of tap beers.
The service was good but seemed a little rushed. I was asked what I wanted instantly when I just sat down and then again within a couple of minutes after that - which was tough because they have a sizable menu. Otherwise, the staff are friendly

Great experience. Party of 3. Albondigas, croquetas and tortilla good and tasty.
The Ox Cheek and the chorizo were amazing.
Good service, kind staff...
Music was a bit loud.

In Liverpool travelling solo. What a treat my evening at Salt House was. Girl Power at its best. The young women running the restaurant made me feel welcome and immediately prepared a seat for me at a high table. The service was fantastic always from one of the you g female staff. Food was delicious, sizzling prawns and potato tortilla washed down with a Spanish rose. My evening at Salt House was made even more memorable by the gorgeous and friendly young waitress Kyra! In summary an enjoyable experience! Girl Power!
Had a few tapas for dinner with a friend: asparagus tortilla, slow cooked cauliflower, beetroot borani and deep fried baby squid. Unfortunately I find the food is generally on the salty side. Our favourite is the beetroot borani which is an excellent dip for bread!!
Make sure you book this if you want tapas and NOT rooms by the hour....very different thing and a bit awkward if you go with your family :/
Tapas was good, good range if hot and cold. Quite fun to 'help yourself' to the food. Even for Soho this place is expensive but the service is good and the food is yummy.

The best garlic prawns I've had in London.
Nice atmosphere.
They keep on changing the cocktails card, but you can always find something to your liking.

What a perfect lunch! Myself and a friend ordered from the lunchtime menu and added a couple of extra dishes along with a beer. It was delicious, prawns juicy, batter light and crispy, miso soup fresh and flavoursome.
It was so lovely and relaxed with such pleasant service. I’ll definitely return!!

Great little find on the way back from visiting the SS Great Britain. Service was good and the food very tasty. Nice spot to people watch as well!
We had lunch here and absolutely enjoyed the food. The food is authentically Mediterranean. We particularly loved the Hummus and Pita bread, calamari and the falafel. We loved it so much that we made a reservation for dinner as well. The service is quick, food is served nice and hot and they have a short but amazing dessert selection. You should definitely try this place on your next visit to Edinburgh!
Been here twice with my partner, once for our aniversary and once for valentines day. Hands down our favourite place in Liverpool to eat. Food is always gorgeous and service is fantastic. We like to order 6-7 dishes between us with desert and drinks. Chorizo in honey and the ox cheek is our favourites.
Great place for a quick bite to eat, the place gives off major izakaya vibes for those that have been to Japan. The menu is quite small, split into tapas/small plates for nibbling whilst you drink or something a bit more filling in the "large plate" section. Having a smaller menu means the food you do get is amazing, a few Japanese classics and a few surprises.
Service was very speedy and the staff were quick to help, as previously mentioned, more of a snack whilst drinking place or somewhere for a quick nibble, instead of staying for ages and taking up space.

Amazing food and staff. Although some of the items were sold out due to a busy night, whatever we had was extremely delicious and very fresh. Staff was very friendly and helpful. They were genuine and had great recommendations.
Wait is a bit long and you actually have to wait in line. But it is worth it.

This restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere and decor. The food was also tasty and very fresh. Service was excellent. Only thing is that patatas fritas and the salad had too much salt.
Glad to see this place is still pumping out delicious food after all these years! Last visit was close to 10 years ago, and still feels vibrant! Fantastic crew as always - always a fun meal with the awesome chefs! Recommend showing up at opening time to make sure to get a seat, otherwise they may be a queue!
Enjoyed the food very much. But do pay attention to the ordering as after i ordered, ALL the food came at the same time within 5 minutes. So if for next time, I'll pace it out a little bit so food won't get cold. Also, not sure if it's because i was dining alone, there was no service or very minimum. No cutlery, no plate even my food arrived. And no one came for taking order for dessert, so in the end i left without having sweets. But the situation wasn't the same to the others for table for 2.
MICHELIN 1* - LONDON
The service was not as attentive as the other Michelin restaurants but it was still good nonetheless. The food was great! I would recommend the shrimps and the octopus if they are ever in stock. The pricing matched the portion and quality of the food being served. Great restaurant!

Great little place. Not much space inside but the atmosphere for a Friday night was busy and jolly. There was plenty of waiting staff on hand for what ever we needed. The food was fresh and so tasty . The Wolf Mistress cocktails were delicious.
Fantastic. I am Spanish and not only the food and drinks, but the vibe of the staff made me feel like I was back in Spain. Perfect for a session of tapas and laughs. Even though it was a very busy night, that was not reflected on the service or the food. Thanks guys, specially Giovanni and Virginia, but everyone else too. You were great, we will come back soon.
Hands down, MORITO served the best tapas I’ve ever eaten in my life!
That’s saying something coming from this foodie.
It was packed yet maintained a relaxed and lively vibe, with customers enjoying conversations and the servers offering excellent service and well informed selections.
My favorite was the jerusalem artichoke and merinda tomato salad with crickets & cardamom. So fresh, crispy and flavorful.
My partner loved the chicharrones - pork belly, lemon & cumin. Outstanding!
We also savored the gambas al ajillo (shrimp sautéed in garlic).
Walk-ins only, this restaurant is worth a short wait on a busy night.
The orange and pink wines match perfectly!
BRAVO!!

We had the pleasure of eating here and what a great choice it was! The staff were very welcoming and friendly and had us seated promptly. The chef was happy to accommodate our request to mix different types of pasta with sauces and the chicken Milanese was delicious. The food was delicious and although they had run out of lasagne dishes this did not ruin our experience. They compensate for the lack of a child's menu by offering a half portion (half price) which was a generous size. We enjoyed a bottle of rose and the relaxed intimate ambience was the perfect way to spend an evening. I would happily recommend La Piccola Italia if you're looking for good traditional Italian food.
Tasty but small portions. Nice staffs.
Visited as part of an organised Tapas Tour and definitely the best of the three restaurants we visited.
Had a set menu of four mini tapas and all delicious - the marinated fig and goats cheese on crunchy sourdough was the best dish.
Served with Estrella Galicia Cerveza lager - perfect.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
The tables are quite small and the back of the restaurant is too dark for me so try and book a table towards the front.

We ordered the chicken gyro and tagine. Both were out of this world!! It is the cutest little restaurant, and all the food is authentic. There are tons of options if you have allergies too, and it does not sacrifice any flavor or meal options. This has been amazing on this trip. I wish the US could be more allergy friendly, like the restaurants in the UK are. The staff was so friendly and kind. I'll definitely come back the next time I visit Edinburgh!
Great food and great service, would definitely return to try more tapas 😋
Food: 3.5/5 but rounded up. The food overall was good and the aubergine was very refreshing. The paella was good as well but the aioli was the main source of salt for it. The prawns were the best of the bunch and the ribeye was okay as well. The only thing we wish was that the food came out a bit hotter and while it was good, we felt nothing was exceptional. However, with an extremely busy service on Saturday afternoon, it can be hard to blame them for that especially with such quick and prompt service at half past 4 on a Saturday.
Service: Very prompt and quick. We ordered drinks (a diet coke, a sangria and a tonic water) and they came out within five minutes of ordering. The efficiency was amazing for how quickly things got processed and it looked like everyone on staff knew exactly what to do and when to do it.
Atmosphere: 3.5/5 Lively. The music was a bit loud for my tastes but maybe because we were sat near the speakers but it wasn't really an experience deterring thing. The other customers and the staff all gave off positive energy.
Overall we had a positive experience here today!

Really enjoyed our time here, the food came out really quickly and we were all impressed. I was overjoyed to see chipirones on the menu as I feel these are really hard to come by in Spanish restaurants in the UK and are my favourite! Would absolutely recommend.
It was decent food, but a bit underwhelming.
I would recommend the goats cheese sourdough and pan con tomate the most.
The servers were really nice and friendly, but considering you walk up to get plates yourself and there is a service charge added on the bill, we gave 3 star.

This restaurant wasn’t entirely what I was expecting but it was a very nice, niche find! It’s essentially a ‘help yourself’ to a variety of authentic Spanish tapas. I found the prices to be quite high for every dish & do think you could get more food for less in other tapas restaurants!
With that said, the staff were very cheery and helpful and the vibe was unmatched! The food was obviously very delicately made and presented. Wouldn’t necessarily come here again but I’d definitely recommend just to try at least once!

If you're looking for an exceptional meze experience, look no further than this restaurant! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the menu is packed with a range of mouthwatering dishes. From the creamy hummus to the tangy tzatziki, every meze plate we tried was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly executed. I would highly recommend to anyone who loves Mediterranean cuisine.
The pepper and cheesecake are pretty good! The octopus is tasty but a little old. The ribeye and pork are good as well. The rice is very tasty but the amount is quite little. The sangria is worth to try. Overall, the taste is good, you will not disappoint if you go here, but it is not worth making a special trip to eat. A little expensive with the dishes amount. You may find a better place to eat with this price.
Though they were busy, they accommodated us, we were in for a quick dinner before a show at the Old Fire Station.
Pizza and risotto were delicious.

Went there with 3 Spanish friends and loved the food. Authentic and tasty. Service could improve in speed and the meat for the filete encebollado could be of better quality (it was not soft enough). I still give it 5 stars because I really liked everything else and it made me feel at home
Walked in on a Thursday night at 8.30pm hoping for a table for 2 and we were pleased that they had one even though it was busy. Food was good, the ox cheek was amazing!!!
Lovely staff and great customer service.

Foods are fresh and tasty. Came in good portions and fair price. Service also great.
Kalamari is a must! So good.

Lovely little local Italian restaurant - as it states on the board outside oldest in Bournemouth apparently! And boy does it show, we only had pizzas but they were outstanding. Super authentic and the tomato sauce base was really good. I had the seafood pizza and the seafood tasted really fresh. There wasn’t any beer on tap so only bottles which isn’t too much of a problem. Really friendly staff. Went at 6pm and it was quite quiet but I preferred it like this!
Loved this place. Pinxtos were great (so good I ate too many) and the sangria was really good. Good music and atmosphere, a little gem.
Me and my mum mostly had the small tapas dishes were were nice, nothing spectacular as far as Japanese food goes, but it wasn’t bad. Portions are tiny, the restaurant itself is also very small inside with only a few tables and mostly bar like seats, all stools rather than chairs. Services was good for the most part but very slow for certain dishes, particularly the Katsu dishes which took almost an hour. Anything other than that arrived pretty quickly though, so am not sure why. No sushi, no free selection of sashimi, very limited menu. Overall average at best, certainly not in my recommendations for Japanese or Asian restaurants in Manchester unfortunately.
I really wanted to love this place as a local authentic Italian, but left bitterly disappointed.
The waitress was a uni student and really didn't have the confidence to look after us, and clearly didn't know the menu.
The table next to us were about to leave and talking openly about their bad meal, which is never an encouraging start to yours.
We had calamari, pizza, chicken Milanese with a Ragu spaghetti it comes with. Neither calamari nor the Milanese were cooked fresh. Both so clearly bought in frozen and terrible to eat. Milanese coating came off easily and wet meat inside. The Ragu was greasy and not a traditional Ragu. The pizza was ok, but for £70 for 1 starter and 2 mains+ £20 wine was not good at all. I was pretty gutted as it's been there ages and looks like a traditional nice place to go from outside. Nope.
Guys, please start cooking your own food fresh. You can tell the love isn't there, which is such a shame. It could be great.

Had dinner with a friend here last Wednesday. Whilst the tapas are expensive -£9!! or so- and we commiserated how we can get the same items in Spain for less than half of that price, we had to admit the quality was excellent. I had the pumpkin pisto, aubergine with honey and bacalao croquetas and was very impressed with the portion sizes as well, especially the aubergine. My friend also was impressed with the plate size of her patatas bravas. Service was quick and efficient. We sat at the bar. I’m also subtracting a star bc the wine “carafe” was really overpriced. Honestly I’ve seen MUCH bigger carafes in other places- this was barely two glasses a person. For £14! It’s a better deal to get a single glass. Not a bad dry white wine but not the best I’ve had.
Absolutely love it here have been many times great atmosphere food superb staff great and very efficient they have to be it's always so busy
We had a good time at Bacaro so thought it might be good here since they are from the same group…
But, the service was very pushy, one waitress was serving us who is the most friendly staff member at this restaurant, another receptionist came to check again, we were like…could we have a bit space since we just sat down??
Apart from the waitress served us, the rest staff members have no greetings, no asking, or eye contact when they served and took the plates.
One of the receptionist was so rude when she tried to take the plate off and we didn’t even finish yet, I had to stop her taking the plate, she served different croquettes without asking who’s dish and repeated the names like murmuring.
Very bad experience but the food was not bad, ox cheek was tasty but a bit too salty, sea bass and the black pudding with chicken liver tasted great!
Sautéed mushrooms were too greasy to finish though.

Delicious seasonal food and lovely atmosphere. There's a choice of 2 set sharing menus, Nose to Tail or Root to Fruit (v/vg)) celebrating the seasonal bounty of the network of small scale food producers Poco work with. Every dish was so tasty! Great flavours, sauces and super creative use of ingredients. We loved it!
We visited for lunch and did the lunch menu deal which was 3 different tapas plates for just under £16 and added a dish of baby chorizo. We also had 2 pintxos. The Goats cheese one with honey and walnuts is delicious. I could've eaten many more. The tapas dishes were all excellent the chicken wings were meaty and good flavours. Loved the black pudding dish. Squid was nice but wished we'd gone for somewhere else purely on the basis a lot of places serve this dish. Service was good. Dishes nicely presented too. I love the tapas culture of eating and would go back. With 4 pints our spend was just over £50.
A cute little tapas place at the heart of Exmouth market. The food is fresh and delicious, albeit the portion is a bit small. But - it’s tapas and it’s London so I guess it’s to be expected. The food is super delicious though.
Excellent tapas at a great price, packed full of seasonal ingredients.
What a great spot for a Saturday afternoon lunch. We ordered slightly too much, but the menu was just irresistible!
Highlights were the lamb chops

Great atmosphere in a cozy setting. Absolutely blown away by the food! Super creative and thoughtful combinations of flavours and ingredients. I highly recommend the fish dishes! Service is slower paced so its suitable for a more relaxing dinner vibe.
Have been to both Exmouth store and Hackney store. Would definitely prefer Exmouth.
We order the following for our visits (4 people):
1. Padro peppers
2. Sweet Onion tortilla
3. Fried chickpeas
4. Crispy aubergine
5. Deep fried squid
6. Prawns
7. Chicharrones (pork belly)
8. Spiced lamb, aubergine, pomegranate
Everything is delicious, sweet onion tortilla and deep fried squid are very well cooked and delicious. Fried chickpeas, crispy aubergine and spiced lamb are exceptional, creative, and simply excellent. Prawn and pork belley are not bad, but the flavor is a bit too strong (salty).
It has been 8 years since I first visit Morito. I am surprised and exuberant to find some of my favorite dishes are still on the menu (fried chickpeas and spiced lamb).
Now that I know they offer different menu from the one in Hackney, I would definitely visit the store more often.

Great place although the portions are a bit small. Amazing food quality and super kind service (especially the French girl but also another French guy and an English guy with blonde hair).
We ordered: a croquette, sea bass with beetroot and crispy onion, duck with parsnip and vanilla (no drinks, just tal water).
We paid £27.85.

It is a restaurant where you can taste authentic Spanish-style tapas, and the price is reasonable, so you can enjoy it without hesitation. However, the table for two is too narrow and the table spacing is too close to match the corona era, so the back is close enough to touch the back of the person. 5 stars if this is solved
Good pizza, a bit crispy and thin like northern Italian pizza. Overpriced sharing platter, bad olives. Cheaper beer unavailable. Table service added to bill.
Excellent service, lovely food. Staff were great. Felt really safe in the current climate. The restaurant are taking every precaution. They can.
The food was excellent again, recommend to all
