Excellent food and service. Portions good size. Best in the front room. Tooting on the up and up. Nothing like this in Wimb or Earls.

Nice local resturant for tapas . Has a rradonable lunchtime deal & a good general vibe. Service a little slow as only one person dealing with all the tables , but was not a problem for us as not in a hurry. Definitely will go again

Great staff, service, food and ambience. Much larger than it looks with a series of small, intimate, interconnecting rooms. Will be back thank you :)

Brilliant value lunch at an authentic tapas restaurant. The lunch deal is two tapas dishes for £7. The food was delicious and just the right amount. What's not to like.

A great vibe in this restaurant, we sat around the bar near the front. Tapas were tip top, having just been in Spain they are pretty much on par!! Would highly recommend the lamb, padron peppers and spinach salad.

Very good food, excellent service, good ambience, pricing on the high side. Very characterful setting, ideal for the tapas principle. I hope any new locations are as good.

Excellent food, lovely helpful staff, nice place to be, buzzy but not too noisy. Loved the octopus, salt cod bites and the tortilla. The mussel sauce was amazing. Delicious Cava and white Rioja. Too full to eat desert so we will most definitely be going back!

Great atmosphere inside very warm and welcoming and busy. Super tasty authentic tapas and cocktails. The dessert churros needed cinnamon in my opinion (I managed to get some from the kitchen) Would go again!

Great lunch at The Little Taperia! We did some dishes from their lunch menu, which is great value at two plates for £7, and a couple from the main menu. Portion sizes were generous (especially the arroz negro) and the food authentic and tasty. Excellent bottle of wine for £20 too.

Only a couple of English explanatory words on the menu so we had to ask the waiter what everything was and by the time he'd got to the end of the menu we'd forgotten was the beginning was. My husband's dish arrived ages before mine. He ate it while it was hot, so by the time mine arrived he'd long finished his. The black rice was very stodgy and quite bland, the prawns and squid were almost pureed in with the rice. I asked for a dry cider and they brought me one which was very sweet, when I complained they said that that's all they had. Won't bother going back.

Food was incredible and the service was brilliant considering one of the party was gluten free and another is allergic to egg. Would definitely recommend and will be back to visit soon.

Food was great and service was good. Only small downside was had to wait longer than I would have liked for some plates to come out so found myself getting full before I'd had chance to taste all the dishes, but that's I would expect a slightly slower service on a Friday evening. Would definitely return and recommend to friends.

Quality fresh food, which was very, very tasty. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere too which is always a plus for me. Great for ordering lots of plates to share, and get to sample lots of different things. I'll go back for sure.

We regularly go to The Little Taperia, and are never disappointed! Great food, good wine list, fab cocktails and friendly service. The lunch deal they do on week days is a very good deal with dejected tapas two for £7. I can definitely recommend the octopus and the scotch eggs from the main menu too!

Service a little slow which is frustrating when you are only given the table for 90mins and it takes them 20 to offer you a drink and you can see your desert sitting on the counter for ten minutes before they bring it to you but food was excellent and we will go back.

Really good food and the staff were really friendly however at one point it felt like we had been forgotten about and had to grab someone's attention a few times when we wanted to order some food. In saying that it was a minor thing and I would quite happily go back there again.
