    Really great tapas. Good house red wine. Excellent white port sangria. Room a bit too dark for my preference but does add to a general sense of authenticity and ambience. Bathrooms were spotless. Service welcoming and friendly. Value is reflective of location; it's not cheap but nor would I say its poor value. Gladly recommend for a pre-theatre meal.

    We had a wonderful time at Lobos, beginning with drinks - Wolfs Mistress and an expresso martini were well received by their drinkers. All the food options were divine, from the moreish croquetas to the secret pork and potatoes that burst with flavour. We’d ordered too much food and yet not a morsel was left behind, all of us loathe to miss out. The chocolate and pistachio dessert was phenomenal too, and the staff were so friendly and cheery. It happened to be my birthday and they’d also left us a cute little sign on the table, and everyone that came to the table also said it!
