What a surprise, bumped into this diamond little restaurant whilst browsing 'The Lanes' in Brighton with two friends from New York. I'm not going to make this review long winded only to say that the atmosphere along with the staff are brilliant.

Great service, fantastic tasting food and the portion sizes were just right. Been to quite a few tapas bars both here and in sunny Spain and this is up there with the best.

Busy Saturday lunchtime, but we were seated immediately. The food came out quickly, and was very good! We were going to order the chorizo in wine dish, however the waiter suggested the chorizo flambéed in rum from the specials - and we are so glad we decided to try it. Highly recommended!

Although busy on Bank Holiday Monday for a late lunch we were soon seated with a drink, fresh bread, olives and aioli .... Lovely tapas and banter, a great experience.
