Tapete Spanish Restaurant - (Near Southwark, South East)

D B I stopped by a Caribbean takeaway and was genuinely surprised by how good the food was—truly exceptional. Even with all the five‑star reviews, I didn’t expect to be this impressed. We tried the curry chicken, and it’s hands down the best I’ve ever had. The meat was perfectly seasoned and tender, and the basmati rice was fluffy ans perfectly cooked - not quick‑cook variety, which can be on the firm side. Every bite was pure pleasure, which I didnt want to end! Well done Chef. The decor is a tired, but the food more than makes up for it. What I appreciated is that the prices were super reasonable and reflected the demographic of the area. By keeping the cost fair, the place is set to earn / already earning a steady, loyal crowd rather than inflating costs to maximize short term profit. Theyve got this right ✅️ We will be back.

Julia Soldrzynski I owe this restaurant an apology. I was about to leave an angry review about my undelivered food when I discovered the real culprits: my phone carrier hasn’t been accepting calls (on top of the fact that my buzzer doesn’t work). The restaurant had actually been trying to reach me the whole time. They were incredibly gracious about the mix-up and even agreed to redeliver. (Although the delivery guy’s expression was a little grumpy but I would definitely be too in his shoes) I’m writing this review with more than a little embarrassment, but also genuine appreciation for their kindness. Now for the food—it’s very good! I’ve ordered twice now and have been happy both times. The portions are good for the price, and the quality is consistent so far. Their Onion Bhaji deserves special mention: it’s enormous and absolutely delicious. Even after delivery, it arrives surprisingly crispy. I can only imagine how spectacular it must be fresh from the kitchen.

Paul Jauncey Absolutely delicious sandwiches! We shared two of the vegan options, some fries, and the fried tomatoes. Even though the pub was really busy, the food came quickly, and we were full for hours.

Alexandra Crabtree Popped in here for lunch and asked for an outside table. Giovanni was brilliant. Depsite the outisde area not being set up, he went out and cleared a table for us to use. Really went above and beyond. He also made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Great experience :)

Aubrey Harper Came with high expectations given reviews and was not disappointed. The mushroom skewers were fantastic, the smacked cucumber very refreshing, and the noodles deliciously chewy. Its not the cheapest spot in the area but very reasonable, highly recommend

Yus Ali I had come here yesterday evening for dinner with my partner, I’ll give you a run down of the restaurant and the value for money and quality of food: Price: £9 per person, this allows you to eat as much as you want for around 2hrs. 2/5 stars Service: hardly any service, just main counter where you pay and get a plate with cutlery from. So I would not say much of a service, 1 cleaner who is also taking plates away from tables once you leave. 1/5 stars Food quality: by looking at the food from the outside it looks pretty decent, when we attended the food buffet counter I found some of the food to be warmish and not hot enough, the selection was not massive but had some of the usual things you would find in a Chinese takeaway but missing quite a few basics too. There were also no deserts or fresh fruits which would have probably helped the shops selections. 3/5 stars Overall I can’t give more than 3/5 stars for this place but felt if I could give 2.5/5 stars this would be a better reflection. I probably wouldn’t come back here unless things changed and there were more selection going on considering the amount of food places within a 2 min walk.
