If you don’t want to spend money on a plane ticket to Madrid, a dinner at @ibericarestaurants might be your second-best option.

Ibérica is a Mediterranean restaurant and tapas bar with an extensive wine menu. I've been wanting to visit Iberica for such a long time and always stare in the window when I walk past in envy! We finally made it there and it definitely lived up to expectations

There were so many good choices so I tried nine of them. Here they are:

🥓Juan Pedro Domecq £15.75*
six times awarded 3 gold stars as best Ibérico ham, cured for over 42 months

🧀Artisan cheese selection £15.75*
San Simón, Massimo Rey Silo, Manchego, Peralzola and organic Sujaira

🥔Patatas bravas £7.90
crispy potatoes with brava sauce and alioli

🥗Charred aubergine and sobrasada £10*
honey, Sujaira cheese, rocket and caramelised sunflower seeds

🐙Pulpo £18.90*
grilled octopus with potatoes and pimentón de la Vera

🥩Pluma Ibérica £16.80*
free-range pure Ibérico pork, served with mojo rojo sauce, rosemary potatoes and peppers

🥩Twice-cooked lamb £14.70*
with marinated cherry tomatoes and red peppers from León

🥨Churros with chocolate £7.9*
🍧Caramelised Spanish rice pudding £7.9

Everything was perfect - from the food to the wine to the service to the venue - and it actually felt like we were on holiday in Spain. Every tapas dish was really well cooked and to be honest we couldn’t fault anything! I have marked my favourites in the list with an asterisk. Out of all the tapas dishes I had, the pulpo was my stand-out dish!

This restaurant is on the pricier side for tapas but honestly for the quality of food and drink I didn't think it was overpriced at all, just one for a special occasion!

I say this about every restaurant but this might just be my newest favourite - truly authentic experience and I can’t wait to go back! Thank you @ibericarestaurants @nibbleapp for having me.

Tips:
✔️There was a lunch specials menu which was good value at £20 for 3 tapas and a dessert.
✔️They have 5 restaurants in London, These pictures are from their Marylebone branch
