Wonderful lunch set menu! Perfect if you just want to be spoilt with the best! Great array of tapas dishes with different meats and seafood. Nice ambiance and great service. Booking is a bit full but reception was nice to suggest other times available.

This is the second time we've been here and it absolutely lived up to expectations once more! If you like a set menu, love Spanish food, and enjoy quirky decor this is the place for you! It's reasonably priced too considering the quality of the ingredients! And I can totally recommend the Sangria! Highly recommend!

Everything about this lovely tapas bar is charming and authentic. Every dish comes fresh to the table and there are plenty of variety whatever your tastes. We had vegetarians, pescatarians and meat eaters on our table yet I was impressed at the ease in which all were easily catered for with the tapas. The wines are an absolute joy! The red Rioja was particularly good and better than you will find elsewhere.

Food was cooked well and the service was first class. Decor, music and seating arrangement created a nice relaxed atmosphere for a night out.Other two members of our party loved their evening, I did feel that the set menu only format took something away from the tapas experience. For me tapas is all about picking several small dishes of food from the menu and mixing and matching your favourites, enjoying a drink and then ordering some more if you still have room!The set menu format was almost like a tasting menu where you have little control over what food will be served that evening.Cant fault anything, service and food/drink was great and evening was thoroughly enjoyed. Just not convinced by set menu.

Still my favourite spots in the Ferry! Authentic Spanish tapas - no fuss, just amazing food and great atmosphere. Dishes appear at your table, knowledgeably explained by the server. Amazing place.

What an amazing experience! I've been meaning to go here for a while and finally I did yesterday and I was not disappointed at all. Both the food and service was excellent and the ambience was cute showing some pictures of Spanish culture (I was sat downstairs, not sure about upstairs). Since it was our first time, our server (an absolute star) explained the practice of tapas in the restaurant. We were completely open-minded and requested to surprise us. The starters (some roasted nuts and smashing olives) and the sangria we ordered kicked up our appetite. Both the cold and hot tapas were unmistakably delicious and the quantity, to my surprise (I am a foodie), was very much ample. My favourite in the cold tapas was the premium chorizo and coleslaw they served, and of course I can't praise the garlic bread enough coz it was just perfect (note: the basket they serve is meant to be for both hot and cold tapas, but we got excited and finished the bread in the first course itself. Unfortunately, they didn't have enough bread to serve us for the second time, so be mindful of this if you're a bread lover). The hot tapas when they served, my eyes were stuck on the sizzling prawns which was served in a claypot and it tasted out of the world. The only small thing I found quite faulty was the chicken in the skewer, they were dry and overcooked, so it was hard to eat. But the stew helped me to gobble them up. They had different desserts, but we were so stuffed, so didn't get the chance to taste them. But I will have this as an excuse to visit again. Overall, highly recommended in dundee and its not pricey at all.
