A Pincho is a piece of Spanish or Basque Tapas usually served with a toothpick through it according…read moreto an article I just read on Wikipedia. This places does serve a bit of Spanish/mexican style cuisine which is popular at lunchtimes. It was set up to do so by a former McDonalds UK management team member and it recently was the feature of a wonderful article full of praise in the local paper (Wimbledon Guardian) a few weeks back, but it is the breakfast offerings that the the guys here offer that has me in raptures. The sign above the outlet says 'Bagels' and when you order, you will be asked if you want plain, poppy, seseme or multiseed? They are all good, as are the fillings such as saltbeef, smoked salmon and cream cheese. All are £3.50 or under. I personally love the breakfast roll of egg, bacon, cheese or marmite withfilter coffee for £2.20. The service is always 110%. These guys really care about the customers and the image of their business and this is why they have a loyal band of commuting customers who visit this place above the stairs to platforms 7 and 8 inside the ticket barriers at Wimbledon Station. This is made all the more amazing because they must get up at about 4am to get ready and open at around or just before 6am which is the earilest I have ever made it to Wimbledon station to go to work! Sorry, but because of the location, there is no seating.

Tendido Cero was such a standout experience in South Kensington. I dined alone on a Friday night…read morewithout a reservation (my own fault), after being turned away at a few other spots. The manager here was incredibly kind and managed to seat me between reservations anyway, which I truly appreciated. Unfortunately, I didn't quite finish my meal in time before the next party arrived, but instead of rushing me, they graciously moved me to the bar so I could enjoy my dessert. What really struck me was the atmosphere. While I was sitting there, several people popped in just to say hello to the staff, which speaks volumes about how welcoming and family-esque this place feels. Hands down some of the best wait staff I've experienced. The food was fantastic. I had the ham croquettes, white wine, and churros with chocolate and having just been in Barcelona recently, I can honestly say this was the closest I've found to authentic tapas in London. I'll absolutely be back the next time I'm in London. A gem of a place with heart, hospitality, and incredible food.

A glass of wine each, lemon tart, coffee. Not cheap at £142 inc tip, but that's London for you...and I do hate paying for still water! Great atmosphere, busy, not pushy bit attentive...enjoyable evening; will not leave it so long next time. Sorry about the photos, too busy enjoying the food to remember

TERRIBLE. They need a new manager. Charged for a plate that was sent back and said it was fine even…read morethough inedible to us. He said if something was wrong with it he would have taken it off the bill but TASTED IT, and it was good. (Then you pay for it). He has zero clue how good service works. He tried explaining he'd been in the industry for 45 years. Maybe it's time for a new calling. Then proceeds to say, "the customer is right when they're right." He took off the service bill which we wanted to pay because our waiter was great. Overall the food is SO mediocre, overpriced, charge for bread, had zero seasoning and it was way too loud in the place (and pretty empty for a Friday night)-- it's not worth going back to begin with but we now never will.

Great service and food. -- Croquetas, tortilla and jamón were fantastic. Lots of options on the…read moremenu.

You might be confused as to whether it's Spanish or Italian. it's a bit of both, but don't let that…read moreput you off. It could be charm, though you might call it smarm. The staff are incredibly friendly and the food is - for the most part - right up there. It's simple fare, very well done. There are some stinkers on the menu - but these are down to the style of the restaurant and not the execution. Just be mindful that this is real 70s/80s style food so if you get, say, the crab claws it's going to be a crab claw wrapped in breaded crab and deep fried. On the up side, there are some classics like a half avocado with prawn cocktail that will have you yearning for your childhood. The house wine is really quite decent and exploring the rest of the list isn't so bad either, though I usually stick to the house. Reservations are generally not required - we've never had them and, while it's busy, we've never waited very long. And the staff are filled with old-world charm. (n.b. - the owners aren't Turkish, they're Cypriot, and they love food)

Small, family run, intimate tapas restaurant and bar located in Streatham Hill. Local and honest,…read morethis small bar is literally a touch of Spain in SW London! Ran by a Spanish family who do everything to make your stay (whether it be for a quick beer or a full dinner) comfortable and to make you feel welcome. Drinks are fairly priced, with a very good wine / champagne menu for the area. Beers are cold and they have a good selection. Recommended food includes the garlic chicken - polo sopresa which comes served with fresh vegetables and potatoes. Veal, pasta, salads and fish also feature highly. Dinner for two, with wine and desert will easily come in under £50.

My wife asked how many lamb medallions came in an order only to demeaned with the servers explanation. My wife is a very successful chef and the server had his machismo working in full swing. Again, I think pimlico being off the beaten path doesn't prefer American tourists. In this case the server was talking to his coworkers about us being Americanos and being from Miami where Spanish is our second language I could tell he was not speaking of us favorably. It's a a shame that some of the English people lack hospitality and gratitude when American families are patronizing their establishment.
