Delicious Spanish food! We tried the prawns which were delicious saunteed, the tomatoes which were plump and bursting in juices and flavour, as well as the pork which were absolutely delicious. We were also tempted with Basque style cheesecake for dessert, which was rich and creamy and definitely satisfied our souls. I highly recommend the cheesecake. The service was also excellent. Will be back again!

Very typical Spanish restaurant with about 10 appetizers 12 Tapas and 3 Specials on the wall. The atmosphere is very good and when we went there it's relatively quiet probably because it's lunchtime. The seafood dishes were all very fresh. We ordered one of the special, scallops pinchos and I'm very impressed with the freshness of the scallop. The squid was also very tender and nice. Gambas and sirloin were also delicious. In general the experience here was very good.

This restaurant serves top quality food, with the rest of the experience being really quite disappointing.Experience:The service was borderline adversarial at time, and we were almost booted out before being offered coffee (despite having the table for another 30 minutes). There was a general sense of unease created by the service. Much of the food had run out, even though we arrived at 7.15. Finally, the atmosphere is a little odd - there were regular sounds of crashing cutlery and crockery nearby.Food:The food is really lovely. We tried many of the tapas dishes and every single one was delicious. I don’t think I’ve had better Basque food in London. I would definitely return for the food. It was also a nice touch to bring out a birthday cheesecake for one of the members of our table.In sum: great food, middling experience

Went to Donostia for dinner with a friend, after hearing great things about their Basque Cheesecake. We had an amazing experience overall. The staff was very attentive and friendly, the food was delicious and the cheesecake really did not disappoint - absolutely incredible! The two cocktails we tried were lovely too (one of which was new to the menu and I believe we were one of the first people to order it). Will definitely be visiting again soon!

Hands down my favourite Spanish restaurant in London. High quality ingredients, delicious food, friendly service in an unassuming, easygoing environment. Great for a casual date and for small groups.Cheese cake is unmissable.Lurra across the road is great too but altogether a different vibe.

We have a tradition of celebrating our anniversary with Spanish cuisine whether a home cook or to dine out depending on what we fancy each year. Because this year it was a surprise lunch so I had no idea where we were going to. At first, I didn't know what to expect from this Spanish restaurant near Marble Arche where I usually don't travel to for a good food destination, except of course the delicious Thai food at The Heron. However, all of this will have to change from now on. I genuinely have found the best Spanish restaurant in London and beyond right here in W1 and it's a Basque cuisine. Couldn't get any better. We ordered a few starters and everything on the fish tapas menu including tomatoes salad and tortilla. Every single dish was just super scrumptious. I could taste every freshness of crab, prawns, squids and even meat tomatoes. I couldn't false anything on the table. They were cooked to perfection, well seasoned and the intensity of the flavours was just unbelievable. I couldn't pick the favourite one which I usually do at the end of the meal. It was that good! We always end the palettes with a dessert but after finding out that they only had one option for that day which was cheese cake we didn't fancy it as we were quite full by then so regrettably we had to say no but the bill came with a small box of cheese cake to take home with. We're so chuffed and impressed with the service, generosity and really made our special meal even more memorable. When we got home we shared the cheese cake and we wish we had more. It was utterly delicious! The lightest cheese cake I ever had. Not at all dry nor firm like New York cheese cake, more soft and moist like creme brûlée but with cheese flavour. I just can't have enough of it. We already recommended to our friends and will make ourselves back to have this incredible food for the second time soon.

I absolutely love this place. The food is something else! I recommend sitting at the bar stools as it makes it for a more live experience as you watch the chefs prepare the tapas for you. My recommendation is always get 2 portions of the pan con tomate per person, try the black rice with monkfish and the sirloin as some of your tapas and absolutely always finish with the burnt basque cheesecake. Highly recommend giving it a try. Do make sure you book a table ahead.
