Ruddington, Spanish Restaurant Guide

This “great” Lace Market Hispanic of 15 years’ standing serves tapas with international influences – and impressed sweary chef Gordon Ramsay when he brought his family to celebrate his daughter’s graduation from Nottingham Uni last summer, declaring the food “XXXXing delicious”. Top Tip – “the express menu is a great option for a speedy lunch”.

2021 Review: “Very reliable and reasonably priced (especially at lunch. or for the popular pre-theatre menú deli dia)” – Escabeche’s lively, city-centre spin-off provides “tasty tapas in a utilitarian but appealing setting”. On a nice day, nab one of the few tables outside.
