Lovely place to eat tapas. We had the £10 light lunch which included a small starter salad, choice of 2 skewers, including prawns, and a potato choice. A drink was also included. The server was polite and attentive. Definitely a great place to entertain.

We specialize in charcoal grilled food that is healthy and simple. Our dishes have various influences from across the Mediterranean, from the olive groves of Greece to the tapas bars of Spain, a resulting in an exciting and distinctive blend of flavours.

This was a first visit and canât say we will be rushing back. The service is fine, but the food wasnât really up to much. The tapas dishes arrived within minutes of ordering so obviously preprepared and microwaved as needed. Wouldnât have been so bad if it was evenly heated - chorizo was burning hot and therefore hard as it was over cooked, albondigas were barely warm. Taste of all the dishes was okay but portions are small - not an issue if they are top quality, but these arenât. The main course we had was ok and freshly cooked, but you donât get a lot for your money - a £14 chicken dish is just a plate of chicken with some tomato and lettuce (although it was advertised as coming with mushrooms and peppers). The issue with mixing tapas and big plates is that those eating tapas had finished eating before those with main courses got their food. There are better places to go in Hitchin, and Iâm guessing the high rating comes from big groups who are looking for atmosphere and value rather than quality.

Staff are friendly. I had the tiger prawns and steamed salmon, both were good. However, the portions were enormous, biggest I've ever seen in my life. Also, it seems that you have to have 2 or 3 courses where 1 course would have been fine

It was our first time in the area, and we happened upon this lovely little Turkish restaurant! Hoping to be seated on a busy evening, we were delighted to find that the more than accommodating staff were able to seat us immediately. We had a succulent Turkish meal with great service all of which garnished with an even greater smile.Delicious food! Beautiful atmosphere! The young man that served us was clearly very attentive and knew the ins and outs of his job, to the point I assumed he must've been sourced from upscale restaurants in the city, a fact actually confirmed by himself and other staff members.Not only is this a lovely addition to a lovely town, that clearly gives the town itself a certain character it deserves, but It was also a great dining experience, and an affordable one at that.On a side note, amazed to see how the staff manage in such a busy environment with so few. This place obviously prides itself on only employing the best and most fitted for their restaurant which of course proves that quality over quantity is better. And it certainly is in this case!Loved every second. Will definitely be coming back for more!!!

Visited with Dad tonight.Was made welcome and was looked after with attentive service throughout.The hummus with lamb was an interesting and tasty take on an old favourite.I would highly recommend the Steak Diane. Nice big steak, and an excellent sauce with a great depth of flavour to it..Dad had an impressive chicken dish with a cheese, asparagus, capers and herbs in a white wine sauce.Limoncello ice cream and caramelized figs stuffed with walnut finished off the meal.Would highly recommend and look forward to going back.
