del Parc

It was our first time at del Parc but by no means will it be our last! I'm not sure where to start but here goes: Food, service, atmosphere, all perfect. The best dining experience I've had in London thus far and have been here 8 years. Enough said.

Went to this lovely restaurant on a balmy evening last month.....what an utter joy.

I arrived early and instantly felt like I was on holiday. So friendly and relaxed. My friends arrived and we enjoyed some of the best and most original food I have tasted in London....and I eat out ALOT!! Go and enjoy. Worth every penny.

Can't wait to go back...

We've been going to this restaurant for years now and it just gets better and better. Food is original and very creatively presented. We love the fact that you can watch the food being prepared and the service is always so friendly. It's a must even if you're not in the area!

I visited this restaurant recently for a friends birthday party, and had a great time. A real find. Off the beaten track but obviously a genuine passion for the two owners. One cooks the other takes care of front of house. It’s a real pleasure to have your food cooked in front of you, and all the dishes we had were very good, Spanish tapas with a Moroccan twist. Great Gambas, Moroccan lamb meatballs, some fantastic Manzanilla olives, hand stuffed with Pipmentos and smothered in smoked paprika, Soft cheese with fresh fig and Serano Jamon, an amazingly ripe cheese (served in El Buli) with Chestnut honey, catalan spinach with pine nuts and raisons, the list gos on. I think we had around 10 tapas, but its hard to tell, they just kept coming. Up there with the more famous Moros but more intimate and relaxed.

We were on a fixed menu £25/head with ½ bottle of surprisingly good house wine. Great value. We ended up exploring the wine list, with some real gems if you want to spend more, and as it was a special occasion we did. In the end, £48 each was still good value. Heartily recommended.

I've never visited a restaurant I've been moved to review online before, but Del Parc was everything I hope to find in a local eatery. Run by a staff of just two, and seating only about 20 people indoors, service is intimate and homely - if somewhat slow. Still, the atmosphere is conducive to idling away an entire evening over a bottle or two of surprisingly good-value wine, so there's no hurry.

The menu, which consists solely of tapas dishes along Spanish, Moorish, and North African themes, is expansive, beautifully-prepared, and utterly delicious. The goat-cheese balls battered in honey were a revelation; the king prawns even better, and the portions are just the right size, leaving you wanting more. The bill for three people (8 dishes plus a bottle of wine, and a tip) was £76 - not the very cheapest meal around, but still something of a bargain considering the quality.

It's a real off-the-beaten-path find, so much better than the pretentious, overpriced places which line all the neon-lit high streets of North London. I'm definitely going back.

Everything you've read before is true.

Had a wonderful meal with 2 friends last night. Found out about Del Parc based on a recommendation.

Swordfish was superb. Olives of a smoky kind were delicious. Never usually one for lentils - their dish was exquisite.

Wines reasonably priced and very good quality - therefore excellent value.

Sweet & personable service topped off a lovely dining experience.
