Top Places and Services in United Kingdom

We were walking aimlessly looking for a place to rest our legs and eat dinner. Stopped at this quiet street to check our Google maps as we were kind of lost. Someone came out of this restaurant and pointed for us to go in and try as he said food was great here. So we walked in and luckily there was a table available in the basement. Food was Spanish tapas, poshly presented. Quite pricey but tasted good. Service was very friendly and attentive.

When I came to Salt Yard , I ordered a wide range of their tapas. In total I ordered the padron peppers , iberico ham, cheese platter, jamon croquettes, truffle arancino, burrata , patatas bravas, chorizo , flatbread , prawns in chilli oil and the braised beef. I was a fan of the padron peppers and iberico ham , I would say the iberico ham was almost better than the ham I’ve had in Spain. The cheese platter in my opinion wasn’t necessarily worth the price (£18 for the small platter) but it was fine . The jamon croquettes were delicious and the truffle arancino was good but sickly after too much. The patatas bravas was good too but nothing special. I was a huge fan of the chorizo and prawns in chilli oil, it paired well with the flatbread with herb butter. I was not a fan of the braised beef, although the texture was good, it was soft but it had no flavour whatsoever and was very very dry. Each time I took a bite I had to have some water with it. The basque cheesecake was nice too. Regarding drinks, I tried the sangria which was nice and the padron margarita which I wasn’t a fan of. The service was okay, the staff were friendly but I felt some of the dishes took a while to come out. Although I know its tapas style and things come out at different times, this was fine but just some things took too slow to come.

My wife and I enjoyed our dinner at Salt Yard. The place was packed on a Tuesday night. We were seated comfortably at the bar counter and Anna greeted us with a smile. She was really helpful with her suggestion and we love her recommendation of the artichoke. The eggplant dish was also very very good. I liked the prawns but my wife who is used to the fresh seafood from our island nation thought that they could be firmer. We asked for some bread to soak up the delicious sauces from each of the dishes and were treated to the very tasty chargrilled flatbread. We have had good food before, but, Anna’s exceptional service has made all the difference to our experience. Will come back!

Went for a special occasion here and had the BEST food, nice vibes and exceptional service. The tapas made us so full and I found that the patatas bravas and flatbread were as good as the reviews said!✨ Thanks to our waiter on 17/08/24, he provided great service! Would recommend the Burrata and Halibut too!
