the member ofStaff who I presume has the duty of welcoming an arrival, was studying whatever and I had to wait until serving staff were free to see if I had a reservation. Not very important

We've been a number of times for dinner, just the two of us and it's always been fantastic. However, today (Mother's Day 2017) was a disappointing departure from previous form. Having studied the specials board, we were told there were no specials. Having asked for sauce on the side with the patatas bravas, (to accommodate the kids), they were served smothered in the spicy sauce. We asked for some butter for the kids to have with their bread and were told they had no butter!? How does a restaurant have no butter?! However, we did ask for some favourites that were not on the lunch menu and they accommodated us. All-in-all, a lack lustre performance, so a slightly harsh 4 today because I know they can do better!

Fantastic food and drink - great decor and venue - so good to have something small and independent rather than the usual chains - I would totally recommend this restaurant

Great experience. Excellent food. Attentive staff. Lovely and clean. Only slight problem is that I would have liked the waiter to explain about the specials.

So disappointed with how we were treated here. We had booked, yet were given a tiny table for that barely fit our food. On the night, groups who walked in just after us without reservations were given much larger tables. Our entire meal was quite uncomfortable and we left quickly, and I'd hesitate to trust the staff here again.

We enjoyed a lovely meal at De Nada. Lovely, cosy setting, relaxed ambiance with a traditional Spanish feel inside. The service was excellent, wine and food both very good. We felt that we could have been in London rather than Guildford - a great quality experience. I would recommend.

Great service, amazing and authentic food and not the usual tiny portions you can sometimes get with tapas! Lovely atmosphere as well with a live guitarist. Would highly recommend, my new favourite restaurant in Guildford!

Welcoming tapas bar. Friendly staff. Good food and wine. Difficult to find (just off Market Street - follow the music!) but well worth the effort.

Really disappointing. Completely messed up our order, bringing things we didn't order and forgetting things we did. When we did get the right food it was bland and featureless. Sardines on bread were tinned rather than fresh. Given them a rating of 2 because at least they did have Cava rather than Prosecco. If you want good tapas in Guildford go to LA Casita - vastly better than this place.

The food was generally good but not remarkable, and the staff welcoming. However it was extremely noisy (it was a Saturday evening), so not ideal if you want to talk to your friends. We had booked online but it didn't look as if the reservation had been picked up by the restaurant.

Amazing food. Amazing atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. You felt in no rush to leave and the food wasn't rushed to your table which allowed a really chilled evening. Sangra... the best!

We had to arrive later than our reserved time but this was accommodated although the restaurant was very busy. The atmosphere was great. The service was fast and friendly (although they had to be reminded to bring a couple of the items we had ordered) and the savoury tapas were delicious, well cooked and typically Spanish. The Crema Catalana and Sangria were good too but the churros were a bit disappointing (tasted like they might have been cooked in the same oil as the savoury items).

Firstly I must say the staff are EXCELLENT but otherwise the conditions aren't great (too hot, hard uncomfortable bench, one of our party was sat on a chair marked 'broken, trestle table with uneven top led to glasses toppling over, person on the end couldn't get their legs under the table because of a metal bar). Salad gritty, mushrooms watery and tasteless, calamari batter hard .....very expensive for the offering.

Very friendly staff, great service and the food was very good except for the chicken dish on the specials board. We went before the cinema so not too busy but not empty either and the staff fully appreciated that we needed to leave by a certain time. Although not a huge menu, I would thoroughly recommend it if you like tapas.

A real tapas bar in a quiet yet central location in the heart of Guildford. Good food and wines with good music in a genuinely Spanish "ambiente". Warm welcomes and good service are offered by young Spanish people. Great!

Great evening with tasty food! We were celebrating my husband's birthday. This is the second time we have been there as the previous visit was for my son's birthday. Pleased that both times we were not disappointed. Have recommended to friends who have also enjoyed their tapas. I was unlucky in not being able to have the padron peppers as they had run out as well as the Churros con chocolate but that's a good excuse to return!

Came here not knowing what to expect & found a lively (noisy) restaurant & wine bar. Our waiter took our order without writing it down & did forget one item patatas bravas but it didn't really matter as the food we had was delicious although that dish would have rounded the meal off well. The food certainly arrived quickly & we were finished within half an hour which was amazingly fast & not really what we are expecting. So great food, lively venue but possibly not the place to catch up with friends as too noisy to hear what others were saying. Probably best as a pre/post cinema or theatre meal.

Great restaurant, food was delicious but the tables are very small. Even though we had a confirmed booking they struggled to find space for us (4 people) and two of us were on fold up chairs! Saying that we would all go back as the food, service and atmosphere was great.

I went to De Nada at the weekend for a special meal with my other half. We really enjoyed the relaxed surroundings, the friendly, efficient service and the simple but delicious authentic food. We'll definitely be going back!
