I discovered this restaurant last week and went there with some Spanish friends. The food its really amazing, and the menu its just wow, gazpacho and salmorejo were great. Suckling pig, cordero (lamb) and croquetas were really nice.
Really recommend this place.

I am a spanish native and probably I was expecting something different. It's too expensive and the portions size are completely ridiculous. Nothing to do with the real tapas.

The quality of the food is really nize except the two stars of the spanish kitchen: ham and omelette. The expensive iberian ham could trick foreigners but trust me, that's not what we call iberian ham. The omelette looks precooked, and it doesn't make sense because it's really easy and fast to cook.

In short, a goodlooking restaurant but too expensive for what it provides.

Seriously good tapas, probably the best in London actually! The quality of ingredients is of the highest I have experienced in a spanish restaurant, the presentation of the tapas dishes was really good and the food so yummy that despite being recommended by the lovely waiters to order about 8-9 tapas dishes for a 3 people lunch we ended up continuing to order more until after 15 dishes we really had to end the sumptuous meal. Will definitely be back to try the few tapas we have not been able to try yesterday and their paella which looked so apetising on our neighbours table. Really good value for money too, highly recommended!

9 of us ate here one Saturday afternoon in February and i was very pleasantly surprised. The service was really lovely the variation on tapas was great, and enough diversity for vegetarians as well. We all left full of sangria and yummy tapas for less than £25 a head. This is a great addition to brixton eating scene, and is well worth the saunter down Acre Lane for some yummy tapas!

Had a great meal at Boqueria last night - the menu was imaginative and every dish we tried was delicious. Highly recommend the black rice/squid paella – so worth the wait. The wine was also really affordable – a bottle of Rioja was around £13. Staff were very helpful, can’t wait to go back!

Boqueria is the best "Tapas Bar" in London. I have to say I come from Spain and I love tapas, i have been in the best places around Spain, at Boqueria you feel like in Spain. "120% recommended" is no just the food what is lovely, the place itself is brand new and decorated to high standard. The staff is 100% spanish and are really kind + professional. FANTASTICO BOQUERIA!!! OLE!!!

A really lovely tapas restaurant and bar with an authentic Spanish feel to it. It's just opened so I do hope the locals in the area will be supportive of it and enjoy all the deliciousness on offer.

I noticed this place last week and popped in over the weekend to give it a try. We had drinks and tapas at the bar. The food is absolutely fantastic and reasonably priced for tapas. Place newly refurbished and looks amazing and the staff were all from Spain and really friendly, felt like being on holiday. Will definitely be going back soon.
