Pulpo Negro in Winchester

Had an exceptional lunch there. All the food was well thought out, delicious and special. How I think Michelin Star food should be. Comfortable dining room, great atmosphere, knowledgeable and kind staff. Can’t wait to go back.

A really long overdue review, visited for my birthday in October and literally the most incredible service and food and just everything. We were such a problematic table due to a surprise visit from my parents and the staff were just so amazing about it and went above and beyond to accommodate. The food was just the best as well and just a really fantastic experience!

What a superb restaurant. Service, food, drink and atmosphere were all first class. We had the best evening for 2 friends birthdays and left wanting to go back for more.

We went there following Michelin recommendation. Nice restaurant atmosphere and the staffs are really nice. Menu changes regularly. We loved the crispy violet artichokes very much.

What a gem, fab service, warm and attentive. Brilliant tapas from a great kitchen. Such a nice atmosphere and the kitchen is on show so the noises and smells spill in to the dining area in a positive way.

Excellent range of food and taste. Between us we tried 12 dishes and all were excellent.Service was excellent.Only issue was that coffee was weak and lacking in full flavour.

Loved it here! Great atmosphere, extremely friendly helpful staff and the food was all really well done. We took their advice on the special and didn't regret it! Will be going back.. Perhaps regularly..

The most fabulous place! I cannot recommend this place more highly!…we had a wonderful dinner here tonight. Based upon the recommendation of the waiter, we started with the “Pregnant Bread”…and if there is one thing I need you to know, it’s that this is the best thing we ate tonight. YOU MUST ORDER THIS BREAD…although it’s actually more like pastry than bread, it is superb. We followed with Gambas, Croquetas, Chicken Thighs, a Carrot dish and Patatas Bravas and all were excellent. The service was attentive…and very friendly. The wine was great, and not overpriced, and the overall ambience was perfect. These guys are hitting a six on pretty much every front…it just leapt into my top 3 restaurants in the Winchester area. 110% recommended.

Am hesitant to give this place such a high review to avoid getting this place too popular so I can get a table.Been to many tapas restaurants in the past and always felt like I need a burger after. This place is different, the portion size is good and probably 4-5 plates to share amongst 2.The tomato 🍅 bread🍞 is out of this world. The fact they could make something so simple so tasty is incredible. The bread it comes with is crispy on the outside yet easily chewed through to be hit with a soft and airy bread.The BBQ carrot🥕 tasted like dessert, softly steamed then BBQ to bring out the flavours and sweetness of the carrots.Then the Gambas. It isn't some measley tiny shrimp 🦐 you'd find in other restaurants. It's 5 large prawns head on for full flavour. The oil it comes with is infused with prawn essence reminding me of prawny soups you'd get abroad.Had the cauliflower, pork cheeks, preg bread and cod as well which were ok.The highlight has to be the sorbet. Made in house coconut sorbet with candied pineapple with lime zest. Omg. It's just written down as sorbet. But it's anything but just that.An amazing restaurant and hope to be back soon to try other stuff. Thanks guys and Anton for looking after us

Just love love love this place!! I have to visit my brother to go here as its a long way from London but well worth the trip. The food is exceptional and the cocktails reasonably priced. If you want Michelin star experience without the price head here. This was my 2nd time and I will return. We were a party of 5 people and as well as having a large selection from the menu we also treated ourselves to their rib eye steak which was to die for....wow was it good. The desserts were truly yummy too. Friendly staff. What an amazing experience. We sat downstairs this time which is definitely cosier than upstairs.
