On our first visit to Greenwich we chose this restaurant to eat around 4 pm on a midweek afternoon as it had customers in, was not part of a chain, looked interesting and perhaps most importantly - I could get in, in my manual wheelchair. Flat entrance from the street and then a door at 90 degrees with a threshold... More

I love the food here and have always enjoyed it. I was a late comer to tapas, but after several visits to Spanish cities can't get enough of it. In 7 or 8 visits I can say the food has been good, except on one occasion when the potato bravas was over done. Staff have always been friendly and very... More

The service is awful, after trying to stole 5 pounds on the bill they told us "go away and never come back"... Waitress is not cheerful at all... the live music is a poor guy playing synthe... what he prefers is to add wave sound to the sond... Do not recommend

Ate here with no previous knowledge. Great atmosphere, attentive staff, quality tapas, varied menu, (good kids menus as well, £4.95 for 2 courses). House Rioja, great value. Will certainly be back.

We ate here before going to the cinema in Greenwich, very nice atmosphere, waiters were attentive and friendly. The food is good although portions are quite small. Average cost per tapas is £4.50, so that for 2 grilled sardines is quite a lot. We had to order some more half way through the meal. A meal for 2, including 4... More

Having ordered food had to wait ten minutes before they realised that they didnt have the dish I wanted. Having had to order an alternative at a much higher price it didn't come as ordered. Asked for a replacement, it didn't arrive. When we challenged the manangeress about having to pay service charge she was incredibly rude and when we... More

After an evening of pints at The Yacht, my husband and I wanted to have a casual meal before heading back to our hotel in Mayfair. We were expecting to wind up at a chippy, but were delighted to stumble upon San Miguel. The decor is over the top tacky - in the most charming way possible! The interior is... More

Had dinner there first night in Greenwich. The place is fine and spacious, the service is attentive and fast. The tapas we had were fine and fresh, but not too authentic. The hot tapas were freshly made and blistering hot (beware), but easy on the seasoning. The bread served should have been rustic, Spanish bread with a hard crust and... More

Popped in for a quick lunch one Saturday. The ambience is a bit ersatz Spanish (vines, wagon wheels - you know the kind of thing) but the food was actually very pleasant, albeit that it was a bit light on seasoning and chilli. So if you want anise Tapas meal in Green with this is a nice place to go.
