Travelzoo voucher for 4 Excellent food and excellent service by Lorena. She took the nut allergy of one of us very seriously and made sure everything was checked and ok with us. She went that extra mile with a smile
As chilled out as it should be.as personal as they should be.no sacrifices here when it comes to quality. No fancy when fancy is not the case.the fact that the options on the mains is not that broad,it means something.i know what I know and I am serving you things that I know I am good at(making them).pleasant and to the point!p.s they have Gin Mare in stock :) !
One of my favorite Resturant in Manchester.. Amazing food .. rich of flavor and the staff are friendly .. it's a good place for vegetarians.
Modern twist on traditional Spanish dishes. Ordered the octopus and prawns for tapas followed by grilled sea bass fillets with asparagus as mains. All washed down with a jug of sangria. Very tasty and very efficient service. Though be aware that the dishes err on the more expensive side.
Tapas was so stunningly gorgeous here and we highly recommend. House white/rosè wine was reasonable and delicious, served in a big lovely cold wine glass. Whilst the nine dishes that we picked were just incredible! So flavoursome. They were rather large too in comparison to other tapas dishes we have order in the past from other restaurants, these were super filling and satisfying. Our evening was made even better by the fabulous, charming waiters / waitress that were so lovely and smiley throughout. We will be back. Thank you!
We had the tasting menu and wine flight. Great food, well matched and excellent service. Good value.
What a lovely find. Authentic tapas cooked in a family-owned restaurant, in the city centre but tucked away. Based on Canarian cuisine. The staff were charming and really happy we were enjoying the food. We had a mixture of small plates; chicken croquetas, ‘wrinkled potatoes’ served with delicious Mojo Rojo and Mojo Verde sauces, Gambas Volcán (stand out flavours), sardines and albondigas. Everything was delicious. Glasses of Albariño and white Rioja washed it all down nicely. A coffee and pistachio ice cream rounded the meal off. Definitely be back.
Lovely welcoming, warm and peofessional. Tapas style serving and ordering. As expected. Food was delicious, the Carrilleras de cerdo was honestly impeccable. The Patatas Bravas (a staple of Tapas cuisine), was amazing, but the sauces paired were a highlight. You don't often get sauces to enhance the bravas at restaurants in Manchester. The pricing was more than fair, and the paella is a must get, even if you have a few Tapas on the side.
The only downside was the Lubina al Mojo Verde (Seabass), was overcooked and dry and cold. Not sure what happened here, assumed it was just left too long to cook, then too long to make it's way from the kitchen to table. However, when pointed out to waitress (Angel), it was rectified and comped as it was just an honest mistake. The friendless of all the staff plus the quirky decor (yellow seating etc) in makes this a gem within Manchester. I definitely recommend and will be back again!
Lovely accommodating staff
Really well designed menu - love how traditional it is
Great food and overall experience
A hidden gem in the heart of Manchester. We popped into La Bandera for a midweek treat. Their express lunch is very affordable at £15/person for 3 tapas and a drink. And the food was delicious! Some of the best tapas we’ve had. All of the staff were so friendly too - really welcoming, had a laugh and professional too.
The croquettes are a must try for any visitor.
Went here with the family for Tapas during a weekend break to Manchester.
All the food was delicious - I couldn't fault a single thing. The staff were friendly and welcoming and were very knowledgeable and able to offer advice on what to order if you were unsure.
The kids really enjoyed it. It was my daughters first tapas experience and she said she'd definitely want to do it again. High praise from a 12 year old!!
The only (minor) niggle. Like a lot of places, they add a (discretionary!?) 10% service charge onto the bill. Which kind of feels like you are being forced to tip. Now, don't get me wrong, I would have tipped anyway because it was delicious but to be obliged to kind of irritates me.
I wish restaurants wouldn't do this.
Excellent restaurant with superb food, lovely wine and extremely attentive staff. 10/10
Came for tapas with family before heading to the arena for a concert. Fantastic service and fabulous food. We were early but they happily accommodated us and nothing was to much effort. This wasn't our first visit and will not be our last. Highly recommend.
It was a very nice experience, we booked at the last minute and we weren't disappointed. The food and the service was brilliant. Thank you for make my birthday a special one. Gracias!
