Personally I love Brindisa, I think they’ve got the whole thing bang on when it comes to food, oh, and the sneaky glass of sherry I usally kick things off with. Second in the list is De Hesa, just off Carnaby street – for a full review maybe have a read of: http://www.ginger-jar-food.com/gj/2009/08/27/blog/dehesa-charcuterie-tapas-bar/

what beautiful, beautiful photography! While I can’t experience that wonderful looking cuisine because I live in Las Vegas, your photography sure has my mouth watering.
You also have the most beautiful site I’ve seen! I’m currently trying to update and spruce up my food blog site. I found the thesis themes and then found your site. I am contemplating the thesis theme purchase because I’d like to do a slideshow at the home page too. Is it fairly easy to do? I’m not familiar with coding and was looking into thesis since it seems fairly user-friendly. Thanks so much for your thoughts, beautiful site and photography!

FoodbyMark – Yeah shame they took away the Jamon croquetas, maybe its temporary.

catty – hahahha.. indeed bokeh power it is!

LF – Yeah, i’ve been to Tapas Brindisa in Borough market as well, which I thought was alright.

Greedy Diva – lol, indeed you must!

Jeanne – imho, better tapas bars have now opened and superseeded the brindisas, having said that it’s still above average

Tom W – I like Salt Yard, and Dehesa is now on my list

Interesting to read your review of this branch. I have avoided going ever since having read some mediocre things about the new place. Given your experience I think I will still stick to Dehesa (off Carnaby Street) which is an offshoot of Salt Yard. I think you would like it if you get a chance to try it.

I love the shop but I still haven’t been to ANY of the trio – Tapas Brindisa is always overflowing when I pass by and the others never really cross my path. If London’s tapas honeymoon is ending hurrah – that means I can get a table any time i want Your meal sounds a bit pricey for a meal without fireworks – but the pork cheeks do look divine…

Hey,

I have only been to the one near Borough Market, and liked the vibe + the food was just about above average (but not amazing). Strangely, we seemed to have ordered similarly (the Padron peppers and omelette, which was surprisingly good to me). My fish dish of sardines was also a bit of a let-down. You can find the little review I posted here fyi:

[Your] photos are amazing, as usual (queue broken record)!

Best,

I do also like the pork cheeks although I was a little disappointed with the chicken croquetas. I wished they’d kept the Jamon Croquetas on the menu.

Great photos. Especially the pork cheeks.
