añada

great place, vibe was good
food was great! starts you off with a nice olive oil and bread
tapas menu had a great selection, oyster was amazing (according to my brother)
pork belly was delicious
had the lamb shoulder special, was good!
beef brisket was good but could have more flavour and seasoning
overall, very nice

ordered seafood paella, rice taste nice but all the seafood r off..actually felt stomach pain after eating..other than seafood rest of the meals r not bad

dinner at añada was absolutely faultless! we had such a great experience from start to finish. the service was friendly and helpful in explaining the menu. the wine list is comprehensive and incredibly well priced. the food is the best part - the menu is interesting and unique and everything we ordered was exceptional. the staff were even able to make changes to the menu to accommodate our requirements. perfect, can't wait to come back!

ambience was right - cosy and atmospheric.
service was attentive.
food was good but can't say it was amazing.
the lamb rack was excellent - perfectly cooked with a hint of pistachio.
the negro seafood paella was underwhelming: soggy rice with no complex flavour.

do: the croquettes, bone marrow, paella (any), pork belly and braised beef brisket.

don't: forget about dessert. the churros with chocolate dipping sauce was great but the absolute star was the polvito uruguayo aka salted caramel vanilla ice cream dulce de leche meringue.

tip: must book. there are two sittings, book the 2nd one for more time to chit chat and chill. bomba yesterday, anada today - what a 1, 2 combination by jesse.

i love this place - it's so authentic and reall. the paella is delicious the service is fantastic. you must book before though or there is no way you'll get a table. it's pricey but it's worth it.

had a dinner out with my so. great service, great food, great value ($50 stagger station), intimate vibe. will definitely come again. i suggest the bone marrow and ox tongue.

personally, i think it's the best tapas in melbourne. the scallop, the octopus and the eggplant were superb! will definitely come back for the paella.

lovely venue. loud but cosy. the waiter was a bit hard to hear but service was top notch. very good at catering for dietary requirements. highly recommend the barramundi and the pork belly and dessert tasting plate. we found the tapas very small for the price. we will be back to try paella next time!

would appreciate if they didn't change my reservation time at last minute, in the end, i had to cancel the reservation after driving all the way there.

service made this place for me. impecable.
food was nice (we had the tasting menu). succulent lamb, fresh oysters, barramundi was also really nice.

lovely, cosy place. friendly and effortless staff, particularly considering we had a bigger table. food was fantastic, we had the tasting platter.

i had a beautiful graduation dinner with myself and my partners family. the food was really really good. i loved all the tapas including the scallops and the pulpo a la gallega. the only criticism i would have would be about the noise levels which made it difficult for us to talk but it wouldn't stop me from going back!!

at añada, the word is tapas. and if two words were required the second word would be 'upmarket'. upmarket tapas, that's what we're talking here and there's some evidence for the prosecution. it's fresh, it's tasty and it's has an authentically spanish emphasis on the olive oil. not greasy, but well, oily. but that's spanish food. 
what's not spanish, is the  service. we've been in greasy spoons in spain where tapas has piled the table. not as exquisite as  añada, but just as fresh, tasty and authentic (much more so obviously), and certainly much faster.
we waited. too long for a cocktail. too long for the order. way too long for the food.
the waiting service was good. informative, friendly and generally professional. not their fault.
more staff would have helped, but the kitchen was constantly playing catch-up which, if you want to be a top eatery, isn't good enough.
we went with the flow and to be fair the wait staff topped up our glasses by way of acceptance for the slow service, but, really they have to do better.
melbourne is used to poor service - controversial but true - but that doesn't make it acceptable.

delicious food and lived up to our expectations. service was a little off as it was obvious they were quite understaffed but when we did eventually get service it was attentive and super helpful. will return that's for sure.
