    Absolutely fabulous. Best tapas and sparkling sangria that we have had outside Spain. Serving staff were friendly, chatty and thoroughly deserving of high praise and a generous tip.

    The environment is welcoming and cosy - we ate the lunch menu, a simple steak and chips which were very good and great value for the City

    This is a really lively, buzzing spot in the Leadenhall arcade (Victorian, quirky, full of character) and offers pretty decent service and food. The only issue is the portion sizes, which for the price, are extremely small. We paid £16 for a manchego board which contained the tiniest slivers of cheese that could possibly have been cut and 3 small slices of sourdough. The cheese slices were so thin, they were almost translucent. I'd say most of the other dishes were at least £1/2 over-priced. I'm aware the venue's in the City, it's probably struggling with running costs etc etc, but that being said, it's never a good idea to rip-off customers.

    The restaurant has a nice ambiance and the staff were helpful and attentive. We ordered a variety of Tapas, and each one was hot, flavourful and very nicely presented. The orange cheesecake for dessert was beautifully soft, and not to sweet - perfect! We enjoyed our time immensely and would definitely come back!

    Tucked away upstairs in Leadenhall Market, which means it was civilised and not a scrum like many of the downstairs and open air places. Went in October, so warm and dry was welcome - food and service excellent and not over-priced for the location. Perfect for an early evening meet-up after work for 2 people or small groups.

    Good and bad points about this restaurant. Some of the food was really delicious (in particular, the Valencian Tomato Salad was to die for, and Torreznos was chef's kiss). But the portion size for some dishes was really disappointing, and made some dishes absurdly expensive. £6 for 8 padron peppers (literally 8 peppers). Cured Meat Board - £16 for 4 small pieces of meat, 2 slices of bread, and bog standard Walkers typecrisps (?!?!)? The sobrasada was nice, but could not make up for how disappointing the rest of the "board" was. The atmosphere was really good for most of the meal - not too loud, but comfortably busy. It did close strictly at 21:00 (on a Thursday). Service was fine, the staff were reasonably attentive, and there was no significant wait for food.

    Helpful staff, nice food, enjoyable ambience - we really enjoyed our experience at La Vina and would highly recommend it to others, especially as a nice informal team catch up after work

    Food lacked flavour and we were bough 1 dish we didn’t order instead of what we did. Expensive for that you get portion wise - even when bearing in mind tapas portions

    Food was delicious, and service excellent. Only bummer was the “papas”, the menu should just call them what they are: crisps/potato chips
