A very friendly reception and lovely atmosphere. We had lovely chilli olives with a beer and wine which would have been great value. However, the owner then brought the best patatas braves any of us have tasted, again as a free tapas. Unfortunately we visited to late in our stay to enjoy a full meal but on our list for our next visit.

We enjoyed a truly memorable meal at this little restaurant. We almost hesitated to go in, as it just looked like an ordinary bar from the outside, but we were shown through to a charming, beautifully decorated restaurant at the rear, by an even more charming waitress, who was more than happy to try her excellent English out on us. The menu is all in Spanish but she very patiently translated each item and made suggestions to us.The food itself was of a very high standard and both the presentation and taste were excellent. We ended up repeating our order of the croquette and belly pork that we had ordered to start, as they were so delicious. The chef is obviously talented. For mains we had the octopus and a very lightly curried piece of cod, again perfectly cooked. To finish we had the carpaccio of pineapple and a deconstructed Tiramisu, which rounded the meal off in style. I would thoroughly recommend this place to anyone, but particularly if you are after something a bit more special in a very relaxed and friendly environment.

We came across Umami by accident as the original restaurant we had wanted to dine at was closed.But I am so glad that we did. The food is fusion Japanese with a light touch of Spanish flavours to make it a unique taste. We ordered a selection of two gyozas (2 x beef cheek, 4 x seafood). These were obviously handmade by the chefs and not out of a box. They were light and tasty morsels... And I knew it was a promising start to the dinner. These were followed by a selection of three sashimi and then my favourite dish of the evening the tuna tataki (tataki de atun). It was dressed with a light sauce accompanied with little crunchy bits of salmorejo and chives. This dish was pure heaven in my mouth. We then had soft shell crab and a huge plate of wagyu beef robata. I was stuffed by the time I savoured my last slice of fatty grilled beef.But dessert !!! I was hesitating (to be good or not to be good) I told myself that I would diet tomorrow and that was an excellent decision as the bizcocho blanco did not disappoint. Served on a small piece of sweet bread, dolloped with creamed condensed milk and vanilla ice cream and dusted lightly with matcha powder, it reminded me of childhood and eating toast smothered in condensed milk ... But like a grown up version done properly!! I didn't share any with my husband ! In all the ambience was delightful ... and completely matches the food. Unassuming and elegant.We sat in the courtyard which was adorned in white furniture with candles and the staff were so friendly and patient. Our waiter who spoke perfect English, was one of the highlights of our meal. His recommendations were spot on and I must say, This has been one of the best meals I have had in a while. Do try it if you're in the area.
