    Excellent food, prices and friendly staff. Highly recommend. Lunch specials were very affordable…read moreand tapas selection was extensive and extremely delicious

    For this place being in Germany, it's a very good place for food…read more I am close to giving them 5 stars but the meat lacks flavor and .. well, how meat should be. This review will be solely about their tapas. Let's go over the cons/ warnings first : 1. Avoid ordering beef 2. If you love lamb, do NOT order lamb. The meat itself is better than beef but the 'lamb' is extremely faint. 3. Tapas are small dishes .. these are very small. 4. Add salt and pepper to EVERY dish, you will thank me. 5. Avoid coming here at noon and 5-7pm The Pros / awesomeness : 1. I'm a newly born olive lover, they got great olives. 2. Nice waiter/waitresses 3. Unlike most of the other European restaurants, this place is open during afternoon hours 4. Good prawns but small with good garlic mayo dip 5. Squid salad is good, too bad that it wasn't grilled 6. Due to the small portions you get more variety at each table 7. They got the BEST ham and dates, it was so fu*king mouthgasmic. Great location, sits right in front of an old blackened (burnt perhaps) church tower and in a small street but still close to the small shopping streets. Conclusion : If you need a break from the usual heavy German food or Italian food around, come to this Spanish tapa bar/restaurant. And MUST MUST order the ham and dates, I haven't stopped thinking about it since I've had it. Olives are small but extremely flavorful and addicting. 15-20 Euros for each person, give or take if you are ordering alcohol. Parking available right in front of the restaurant,

    Tapas is great way to eat when I am not sure if I want to eat or not. Just arrived in Germany, not…read moresure which time zone I am, since the local time was dinner time, I told myself I need to eat. Staff speak good English and helped me with order. The first part of menu is in German but the second half is in English. I ended up ordering three hot tapas for my meals. All the food I ordered was good, I especially enjoyed mushroom dish. I paired with two glasses of wine, can't remember which was what but the last one of the menu was my favorite. Staff was very friendly. Bartender, severs and everyone seemed very nice. Everyone sat outside as they have nice seating area, but I chose to sit inside. It gave me more chance to talk to the staff and they shared some nice information about the area. I would come back to eat here again if I am in the area.

    This restaurant came highly recommended and we really loved it. After an interesting Segway Tour…read morethrough Potsdam this was the perfect place for a relaxed and delicious lunch. 3 Tapas is more than enough, we had 4 each and basically rolled out of this place ... full and happy. My favorite was the chicken in Orange sauce. Yum!! The waitress was super friendly and tried her best to make us feel warm despite the open windows on a chilly fall day due to Corona. Definitely check it out but call ahead for evening reservations. Lunch is easier.
