Arros QD is the result of chef Quique Dacosta’s lifelong passion for paella and wood-fired cooking, brought to life in the heart of Fitzrovia. Everything revolves around the six-metre woodfire stove where our chefs weave their magic, with theatrical seating around the open kitchen downstairs and a classic dining experience on the upper floor. Our space was conceived by globally renowned Spanish interior designer Lázaro Rosa-Violán, with open fires and a glazed wine cellar providing a spectacular visual backdrop in which to experience the evolution of paella. Our menu combines Mediterranean influences with locally sourced ingredients, accompanied by classic wines from around the world, as well as many undiscovered Spanish gems that you will find nowhere else in London.

    It was a birthday meal with my wife... The food and service was great... The ambience was excellent... Can't fault an authentic Valencian paella with chicken and rabbit, cooked on wood fired stove... Desserts were brilliant too... Apple pie was probably the best I have ever tasted... It's not the cheapest of the restaurants... But, worth every penny! I think I will file this as one of the must visits in London Culinary scene...

    Having experienced excellent food and great service on my previous visit, I invited 5 guests to join me at Arros for lunch. Sadly the service was embarrassingly poor. We had to call for service literally every time we needed anything. Drinks were forgotten and came at different times. Items ordered weren’t served. Constantly having to attract attention for any form of service was hard work and spoilt the lunch. Food tasted good but servings were tiny. Paella was barely warm. Premium prices not matched by a premium experience.

    Excellent meal and wonderful staff. The Paella Matanza that we had was beautifully cooked with a rich, deep flavour. The brown crab starter was also a highlight. Great staff who also accommodated us to move seats and for the cake to celebrate my wife's birthday.

    Not great front of house or sommelier - who was new and knew nothing about wine - not his fault! Service was slow, casual and awful - lucky the food was super

    I think the food was not as good as before but still enjoyable. Service was very average, too rushy to take all the plates, forgot about the order a few times, and wrongly charged the water the table had. Price increased, but I’m not sure it’s the best strategy given the second floor is completely empty on a Saturday evening.

    Amazing ambience and great Spanish food. We had the Burrata, Goat Cheese and Crab Salad. All so good…but the highlight were the Paella.

    Excellent food let down by the poor service. Waiter did not smile once and was very brush. Nice chandelier upstairs but the bright light came on at 11 pm on the dot while we were still finishing our deserts and wine. They refused to dim the light. When I complained they asked me if I would like to speak with the manager- the manager never showed. Shame. They could have dimmed the lights for another 10 min while we pay the bill. It would have been a different experience altogether.
