I finally visited Tapas Brindisa on a Thursday afternoon prior to a spot of shopping in the market. The service was prompt and friendly and we sat to our table immediately.
The food was ok, not spectacular and I was disappointed that I had to de-vein the prawns in chilli and garlic for my guest. I was also disppointed with the potato bravas. I remember eating potato bravas @ Meza on Wardour Street a few years back and how wonderful it was for a veggie dish. Meza was my first experience of Tapas and unfortunately the Brindisa version wasn't half as good.
The highlight was the ham croquettes and I could easily eat 2 or 3 portions alone! Also the anchovies with roasted vegetables was tasty. Unfortunately the clams in bacon & butter beans was sold out so I was unable to try this combination that on paper read nicely.
I wouldn't rush back here in a hurry but if I was invited to eat there again, I would go.
