Carmen Tapas

I have visited twice and both times the service was great and friendly. The Sangria's are to die for good quality. The food is plentiful and tasty. I highly recommend the cheese croquettes it's a special cheese forgotten the name. We shall be back again! Also the prawns in white wine yum! On another occasion we had the seafood paella, flavoursome!!

Second time in a month this place doesn't disappoint me! Had great time with my friend, and as being Italian she can be very fussy about food! Tapas were delicious, good portions too, and staff were busy but so friendly, relaxed and ready to meet our needs! Loved the decor, so much attention to the details ! It felt like being on holiday in Spain! Just loved it xx

Im from Spain and I was really eager to come to this restaurant, overall the service was really good and the food as well!! I’ve ordered some: pimientos del patron 9/10, basic but I loved them! Gambas al ajillo, nothing outrageous, they were good but maybe a bit more of prawns? Moreover, the calamares where AMAZING!! Very tasty and just like I’d eat in Spain! I must say I was quite disappointed with the croquetas de jamón basically because it did have the taste of Spanish ham but the bechamel was not what I expected, it was a bit too thick meanwhile it should be smooth. Last but not least, I ordered crema catalana, it was ok. Plus, I ordered a sangria jug and I’d add some peach in juice tin in it to give it that taste that we have in Spain like more sugary… but it was really nice tho. What I didn’t like is that they brought some bread and then they charged it when we didn’t order it… if you are gonna charge me the bread, at the very least, ask me if I want and let me know you’re gonna add it in my bill…

Wonderful authentic Spanish meal on a Sunday lunchtime. Ordered a chicken & chorizo paella & several tapas dishes, including patatas bravas, crispy cod & alioli, mushrooms in garlic & olive oil, meatballs & the chicken escalopes. We also had bread & olives & Sangria. For dessert we ordered the churros & chocolate & a cappuccino. All food & drinks were really good & we will definitely be going back here.

It was an amazing find just next to Clapham Common Station. Nicely decorated and the ambience is like being on holiday. Their front French windows are opened making it more welcoming to sit specially on a sunny day. Wide range of selections on the menu and their servings are quite generous for tapas. The calamari is exceptionally soft like butter and no sign of chewiness. We were a party of three and had four types of tapas plus mixed paella for two. We couldn't really finish it all and I even had the rest of the paella home. It's highly recommended and the price is worth it for servings that you get. The staff are also very attentive and charming.
