Jamon Jamon Soho

Nice little tapas place, not the best but by far not the worst.
Came here for some swift tapas before the cinema, it’s on tastecard so we thought we’d give it a go.
The food was decent, it was admittedly a Monday night, so quite quiet, but the food was good and the staff were friendly. The croquettas were a bit disappointing, but the meatballs were excellent and, as I always seem to find, the patatas were good too. The calamari was a bit soggy but I can never tell if it’s supposed to be soggy? Calamari always seems to have a relatively high soggy factor. I think I’ve said the word soggy too much. Soggy.
The price was decent, I think it came to about £45 without the tastecard, for two, which isn’t too bad, particularly for the area.
I’d recommend popping here if you want some swift food before a show (I think we were in and out in 30 – 40 minutes) but I wouldn’t set your expectations too high.

Went here on a date last night. We were pleasantly surprised by the lovely fairy light décor at the entrance. It looked quite nice inside as well. We weren’t greeted straight away, and ended up stopping one of the waiters and asking for a table for two.
The food was actually quite good. Portion sizes were decent as well. The thing that ruined it though was the service. Unattentive waiters, waiting for ages to be served, waiting for the check, having to try and catch the waiters attention over and over again. It was annoying and seemed like no one wanted to serve us.
The stereo system was also acting up throughout dinner. It would suddenly turn on and loud scratchy noises would be blasting right above our heads. Not so romantic.
Don’t think I’ll go back.

Went for early dinner on a Friday, quite a few people sitting outside but inside, there was only one other couple, so it was fairly quiet. Lovely Spanish music made it a more authentic experience, and the restaurant was really nicely furnished (wooden furniture, plants growing).
Staff were really friendly and service was quick.
The queso con miel (fried goats cheese with orange honey) was absolutely delicious, as were the dates and almonds in bacon. The prawns were a tad bland (in my opinion, I prefer them to be really garlicy) and the meatballs were fine but had a taste that I didn’t love. Wouldn’t order them again but wouldn’t say ‘don’t order them’.
My friend loved the sardines, and the chickpea salad was nice and refreshing. It was a nice option on the menu, different to some other salads you see around.
The bread portion was quite small, but for 80p was very good. I’d recommend maybe one bread portion per person, not really a sharing size. Also the bread was a nice texture, almost dense. It wasn’t like a shop bought baguette, it tasted authentic.
The patatas dûo was lovely — I like aioli and the tomato sauce so it was nice that it came with both, and it came with a good amount of each sauce.
Portion sizes were good.
Including a cider and an apple juice and tap water to share, with 2 dishes per person and there were 3 of us, the price was around £50 including a tip.
When we left, there were 20% off vouchers being handed out, so watch out for those!
Absolutely fantastic tapas. I am obsessed with tapas so this was a great find, one of the best I’ve tried so far, as most dishes were neither bland nor too salty, the menu was not limited and the staff were great!

Awesome! Was looking for somewhere to eat on a Sunday night and we found Jamon Jamon. This is a Spanish place that sells appetizers, you can order multiple and make a meal, or you can order an actual entrée.
Most of the people who work here speak Spanish for those who know how to speak it, or for those who want to test their skills!
We were seated immediately and we were waited very well.
For food, I went with the Pimientos deo piquillo. It’s cheese covered peppers with some meat. THE FOOD WAS FANTASTIC. It was warm and tender, and the peppers had a prominent taste that wasn’t too over powering. My brothers ordered other entrées which were just as good as mine.
So in recap:
Service: Great
Food: Great
Drinks: Great
Everything about this place is amazing. The environment, the food, the aesthetics: there’s really nothing that can go wrong here. If you’re feeling Spanish food, next time, hit up Jamon Jamon.

The best paella! The best service! The he best dessert !! Don’t believe what the people said bad about the restaurant !! For sure we need the bad comment to have the good ones! Be there and eat, eat and eat,

Cute little tapas off Charing Cross Road. I’d recommend booking during peak times. Really friendly staff, food was delicious, good portions and the atmosphere was good too. I’d say go if you’re looking for a leisurely evening, if you’ve got a show to get to for a certain time or your restricted on time make sure you get there with plenty of time to spare. I’d recommend it and I’ll definitely be returning :)

after almost 3 years in London I wanted to try the churros with chocolate because I really missed them! result: expensive expensive and expensive. we were 2 people and we had: patatas bravas (really small portion), croquetas of boletus (really nice) and 2 churros with chocolate (cold by the way… how can be possible? is the owner spanish??? really??? WHAT A FRAUD!!!
BIll: 26.16 £ /​2 very expensive
Spanish: un timo en toda regla. cuando amigos y conocidos espa;oles decian qe no hay que ir a unr estaurante espanol en Londres porque te clavan. ten’ian toda la razon. se salva la decoracion… en serio, el due;o es espa;ol? porque servirte esa birria de patatas bravas y encima unos churros chiclosos con chocolate frio. no se donde se ha visto eso en Espa;à la verdad, NO VUELVO

Excellent tapas bar! Authentic food, sangria, cheeses, and great service, and a wide array of dishes that regretfully I didn’t get to try as I am currently full. Additionally they give each of us a drink for checking in with Unilocal!Fantastic deal for us Americans in the lad where everything costs an arm and a leg. My wife enjoyed it as well. I would come back tomorrow night if I can. Check this place out it’s a hidden gem!

Tucked away in a corner courtyard near the much bigger Bar Salsa institution, Jamon Jamon in Soho is a rustic looking Spanish tapas bar/​restaurant that happens to serve the best tapas I’ve had in London. The tapas portions are fairly generous for the price and in comparison to other tapas places. The chorizo was nice. Thinking about moving to Spain.. hmmm.

Went through an offer online which gave us 3 tapas dishes and a glass of wine/​beer for £10 which was excellent value (they didn’t actually ask about our reservation so you could probably just walk in and ask for this!). The dishes certainly aren’t small and with 6 dishes to share between us plus some olives and bread to start we had more food than we could eat! The food was to a good standard, excellent for the money, a lot of the dishes are very rich though so I’d suggest a salad in there somewhere. Staff were friendly, I happily recommend this place for a great meal on a budget.

This here’s a cute little Tapas joint just barely visible off of Charing Cross Road (the area code given by Unilocal right now is wrong), and it definately warrants a try.
I’ve only previously had Tapas in Majorca, Spain, but these little plates of yumminess were quite reminiscent of my experience there. Fantastic grilled chorizo, croquettes, tortillas, baked Cod, etc etc. It is advisable to go as a group or with a large hunger, because the menu is sprawling with desirable choices and you’ll want to try them all. Doing so on your own is no small feat to your stomach or wallet though, so grabbing a bite from all your buddies is the best way to play! But then all you connoisseurs are already rolling your eyes at me, tapas noob.
Lunch is a great time to go, when all tapas are half off. that’s a deal.
A last little shout out to the beer I had … for all I know, the Mahou could be the Spanish equivalent of Budweiser, but it was crisp and packed a 6% punch.
