I was recommended this place for brilliant Spanish/Portuguese food, and it surpassed my expectations.

The restaurant, in Hoxton, is coolly modern/minimal but the use of a lot of wood keeps the interior inviting and the leather booth seats were very comfortable.

The owners cook Spanish/Portuguese food which is also inspired by the cooking during their upbringing in Mozambique, we recognised classic dishes such as bacalao (salt cod) which would be tweaked with a coriander garnish and a chickpea puree.

Service was very friendly and prompt, the maitre d came over to chat to us and tell us more about the food.

My seafood salad starter with little capers and more coriander was absolutely delicious, tasting of the sea and my partner's asparagus with a romesco sauce was also simple, authentic and tasty.

He also had roast lamb which was very tender and well-cooked.

We shared a bitter almond ice cream that was as delicious as everything else and a bottle of wine; the bill came to about £100 for two which we felt was very reasonable considering the quality of the cooking.

This will join a short list of great restaurants I'd be happy to go to time and time again, like St John's and Moro.
