El Ganso

This lovely little restaurant has a homely feel to it, with shabby-chic furniture and really friendly staff. A lot of people sitting outside on a very hot Sunday afternoon, but very happy to be seated at a lovely table inside with the doors folded back, looking out onto the market. Many of the dishes were modern twists on classic tapas; in particular, I loved the courgette flower with goats cheese & honey, and the quality & cooking of the octopus was excellent. The Gavi di Gavi was excellent too, although difficult to keep cool in a simple metal jacket. A wine bucket with ice would have been better. Would most definitely return.

I came here for breakfast/brunch and oh my was I surprised! I walked in and the manager Ferrazzi (apologies if I'm misspelling your name!) was super smiley and friendly. I was seated immediately. He quickly came out to bring me water (I didn't even have to ask!), and asked if I wanted the outdoor heating on. I don't think it took even 5 minutes before my food was out. The gentleman who brought out the food was super friendly as well, also asking if I needed the outdoor heating on. Whilst the restaurant might be Spanish, despite not being Italian he even attempted to converse in Italian with the Italian couple seated next to me. Fantastic service! And I haven't even mentioned the food yet. Shakshouka is one of my favourite breakfasts, and this was the best I have ever had, beating even my own recipe! I don't know what to say about it, it was just wonderful! Beautiful food, great portion size, and very reasonable prices! After I had finished my meal, I went in to thank the staff, and I had a lovely conversation with them. I HIGHLY recommend eating here. Genuinely one of the best spots I've had the pleasure of eating at. Lovely service, relaxing vibes, and delightful food!

What can I say! This restaurant is definitely one of the best👌 the waiters and waitresses are wonderful and warm, and the owner and his family are just the same. The atmosphere is buzzing yet super chilled and relaxed. The food! Omg the food! It's super tasty and delicious 😋 very quick service. It's an overall pleasurable night out, and I'm so lucky to have it on my doorstep. Thanks guys, for such a lovely evening 😘 xx
