Maria's Tortilla - East Dulwich.


Recommended Posts

The nearest Spanish tapas bar is Barcelona at the other end of Lordship Lane so it?s nice having a Tapas bar within walking distance.

I couldn?t find an opening date but work is cracking on judging by what we could see when we passed by the building today. I?m sure we don?t have too much longer to wait.

Because:

a) They didn't seem to know what they wanted to be, a deli or a restaurant

b) The restaurant wasn't even operating as a restaurant for a long time

c) The guys running it were lovely but seemed to have zero business instinct

d) The deli didn't do that well, I guess there's a limited market for expensive olive oil and custom imported sherry in East Dulwich. Who knew?


For what it's worth I really liked them and often bought stuff but it seemed pretty obvious they were not going to succeed from quite an early stage...

Best Tapas we have ever tasted (and have been to Spain loads of times) is made by a lovely couple Dioni and Jose, who have a pop up called Spanish Particular. They currently run it out of the Brockley Mess. Think they are still away in Spain for the summer, but hope that they will be re-starting again next month. You can google them and I think they have a facebook page

I concur

Took family there last weekend, food was excellent, staff extremely helpful, friendly and patient with my overly fussy 10 year old

Would highly recommended it, but don't tell everyone or as a family of 5, we shall e struggling for a table!!!

Is this not discriminatory?

    • update - we got a space which is ideal for what we needed at Dulwich storeage (thanks for the suggestion,  ed_pete)
    • I think I am becoming addicted to reporting dog waste and fly tipping - so easy to use, who knows the council might actually put some dog waste bins back up (we used to have one on Ulverscroft Road) and signage to remind careless owners to pick up their dog's mess and put it in a bin - preferably their own bin or a black public one rather than someone's green or blue bin, or leave it on the pavement. So disgusting.
    • I recently had Greg install some radiators and TRVs - he was very professional and efficient, and did the job well! He also helped me out in a pickle with a leaky bathroom towel rail. I'd recommend! Thanks Greg! 
    • Oh dear. Sadly I had a disappointing meal on Saturday night. I should have read Malumbu's review above before I ordered. I thought I'd have a dosa for a change. Our meal arrived very quickly. However the dosa was more like a thick and very soggy pancake. The filling was fine. The sambar (sp?) was fine. The chutneys were not what I was expecting, and had a consistency more like sauces.  That might be my lack of knowledge of South Indian food, but I would have expected the coconut chutney to at least taste a bit like coconut. I left most of the actual dosa. My OH said his aubergine curry was delicious. I don't know whether the problem was that the dosa got soggy due to being wrapped in foil to be delivered, but tbh it didn't look like it had ever been a thin crispy dosa 😥 as I have always had in the past  at South Indian restaurants.
