   Once seated handed drinks menu , ordered our drinks and asked for a food menu , waitress said oh we don’t do a menu you get some cold starters and then hot starters , was that okay ? Didn’t have much choice so was asked if we had any allergies We never saw a price until we got the bill £31 per person , totally overpriced!!! Food very salty and not very exciting, deep fried Brocoli, chicken and sausage kebab, soggy small potatoes in very little sauce , very small piece of hale and prawns for the cold starters you got bread, mushed up chicken and mayo, chicken pea salad All food was just salty no nice sauces or other flavours ! We left poorer, hungry and thirsty 👎

   Excellent food and service. The set menu was delicious. Staff were attentive and helpful. We were celebrating a birthday and the staff kindly allowed us to bring a cake, even lighting the candles and bringing it to the table. Would definitely return and certainly recommend for a lovely, relaxed, tasty meal out. Thanks Sol y Sombra tapas bar!

   First time visitor. Went because it was recommended. So glad we visited because it was a lovely lunch. Great service, waiting staff couldn’t do enough for you and were very happy to explain substitutes due to allergies, dislikes etc. Food was delicious and certainly plenty of it. Great value for a lunch. Will recommend to others.

    Excellent food but extremely noisy for quite a lot of the evening. We were unlucky with our table, very close to the main food which slammed all night and right next to the waiting table which was very loud a few times. We used to eat at a Tapas in Edinburgh and were slightly surprised at the cost of the full tapas menu compared to similar in the city centre . Having said that the choice was great and the food was excellent and the staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. We will return but ask for an upstairs table 🤣
