Interested to try, given previous good experience at sister restaurant pica pica. Booking system only permitted either 6:15 or 8:15 dinner slots. 6:15 probably too ambitious for Lawyer, so went for 8:15. Arrived at 8pm and the staff led us to our table in the middle section. Super bustling for a weekday. My bad for not requesting to sit at the bar counter- at least we wouldn’t get bumped into every time a server marched past with the food. Or maybe not as much. Plenty of alcohols to choose from.

Plenty of alcohols to choose from. Wine list- soso, at least the wines by the glass anyway. The Rioja red I eventually decided on was not available.
Here’s what we had.
Tomato with burrata- certainly looked nothing like the one displayed on the website, could hardly see the burrata. Tomatoes were anything but sweet and juicy. Couldn’t finish.
Ajillo prawns- came with 4 pieces of bread. Garlic was a bit burnt.

Suckling pig with red wine sauce. Good. Redeeming feature of our meal. Skin was crispy, fat level was perfect, tender meat.

3 choices of dessert. Decided to go for the cheesecake, since we loved the one at pica pica. Again, disappointed. Wish we had gone for the Torrija (ie Spanish style french toast).

In summary: def not a place for deep meaningful conversations. A bit short staffed. Our meal was punctuated throughout by loud screams and squeals of some very excited ladies. Maybe good for groups. Or, maybe should just stick with pica pica.
