Cambio de Tercio is the signature Restaurant of Cambio De Tercio Restaurant Group, located in the heart of Chelsea- South Kensington. It was open in June, 1995 and is a pioneer in offering modern and innovative Spanish cuisine in London.

We also offer traditional Spanish tapas, but it is our Chef Alberto Criado’s creative dishes, what defines us and has given us our name.

Our award winning “wine list” contains the largest and more diverse selection of Spanish wines anywhere in London.

Within our renovated premises, you can now have dinner at our Chef’s table situated in our kitchen or enjoy one of our Spanish style Gin & Tonic at our “C.Tonic” Bar, with a large 80+ premium gin’s menu.

The Restaurant has gained many accolades during the years including the much coveted “ PREMIO ALIMENTOS DE ESPANA 2003- awarded by the Spanish Minister of Agriculture, Fishing and Food as “The Best Spanish Restaurant in any country outside Spain, 2003”

    As always an enormous pleasure to dine at Cambio de Tercio. A warm welcome at the entrance, attentive (exactly the right combination of friendly and non-invasive) service throughout, and delicious food at sensible prices for the location. If you haven't tried the ox cheek on the daily menu, you have missed a particularly special treat.

    This place is incredible. We’ve been here at least ten times and it’s always reliably excellent. It is amazing.

    This is one of my favourite restaurants and I've been there many times. Last week, I had a quiet lunch with a friend who hadn't been there before. He was totally impressed. The food was delicious, the wine was fantastic and the service was perfect. All I can say is that I agree with everything Piers Morgan says about this restaurant!
