"I ordered 2 tapas: 1. calamari, and 2. Octopus tentacles with potato. The calamari was fresh, easy to chew while the seasoning was spot on. I liked it very much. The octopus texture was a little on the hard side compared to the calamari. But I guess that’s the nature of the cuttlefish texture. I wish I could finish both but unfortunately I was too full. 5 star for the dishes and friendly owner/ staff"

"This humble gem was a welcome reprieve from the overpriced yet underwhelming counterparts of the area. They were very accommodating and made the best croquettas even though they were about to close. Service was great, Dharminder was lovely. Highly recommend!"
