Harden's survey result
Summary
“Great tapas” and a good selection of Spanish wines and sherries make this a popular spot in the city centre. Brothers Tom & Owen Morgan started out at Cowbridge 20 years ago, and have grown their group gradually, with other branches in Penarth and Bristol.
Summary
“Very popular (but consequently sometimes very noisy)” city-centre Spaniard, part of a local chain (which now extends to Bristol), that wins praise for its “top tapas” and wide selection of wines and sherries. On the downside, some reporters “prefer the Cowbridge original”.

Summary
Some feel it’s “not as good as its Cowbridge sibling”, but this “busy Spaniard” in the city-centre nevertheless wins praise for its “interesting selection of authentic tapas, different Spanish wines and large range of sherries”.
For 31 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
