This is an amazing must try restaurant for Cardiff!!! Best Spanish I’ve had in UK. We had:
1. Potato bravo which was crisp on outside and super soft inside
2. Thinly sliced fried aubergine in light batter, so tender and delicious and the batter didn’t overwhelm the aubergine
3. Roasted artichoke with garnish in a slightly bed of pepper mash/sauce. The artichokes were perfection and the sauce was smooth and slightly sour, a perfect combination
4. Mushrooms were deliciously buttery. Garlic taste not as strong as other places I’ve tried
5. Basque style cheesecake served with cream - absolute heaven, best cheesecake I’ve ever had. So creamy smooth and perfect texture
So so good and every dish was excellent. The restaurant has given each classic dish a special twist and was a wonderful dining experience!

Loved the food and friendly service. The seafood and meat pinchos was packed with flavour. The meat and cheese board was great.. Loved the selection of cheeses and meats and the extras which we have never seen before. Only let down was the limited choice of wine by glass. Those who want to drink a bottle, it's perfect. Loved the dessert wine.
J. H.
Love this place, the foods was so delicious and staffs are really friendly and helpful. The selection of cold meats and cheese on the was amazing, will definitely be back again.

A lovely local in the heart of Cardiff with a surprisingly rich variety of Spanish classics of various regions. The Pulpo however was a tad chewy and potatoes weren’t cooked to the Galician perfection, this was however out balanced by the lovely, cheerful staff and cozy vibes.
Defo recommended when in Cardiff and keen on that laid back good wine fuelled tapa fix.
C. R.
This was a great find on our trip to Cardiff. It's located off the main street right near the stadium. (We actually saw the coaches bringing the players in.) We sat outside and had delicious Spanish tapas and vermouth. There is a great variety of vermouth and lovely Spanish wines. The food was delicious. We had tortilla, patatas bravas, pan con tomate, and a nice selection of olives. We felt that we were in Spain again. I highly recommend this lovely place. Great staff!
T. P.
Fantastic service, lovely food. I came here with my mother recently, and we informed the staff that we were on a tight timeline to eat and then head off. We were seated immediately and informed of the quickest things to order on the menu. Our food came out ridiculously quickly, and it was absolutely delicious. We couldn't finish it all, so we were then offered some boxes to take our food away with us. Thank you so much for the very speedy and high quality, friendly service.
We enjoyed the bread and olives, padron peppers, red pepper and goats cheese (my favourite!) and the croquettes.
Highly recommend for a light bite to eat!
B.
Great tapas, great wine and drinks and excellent service. Highly recommended.
G. D.
What a truly fantastic tapas restaurant! The food is prepared so authentically and is utterly delicious. The staff are also helpful, friendly, and welcoming. We had the pleasure of being served by Jack who was warm and funny, and our lunch was all the better by him! Thank you!
Highly recommended and a must try.
d. c.
Excellent food and excellent service - we’ll be back for more!

On our fist visit to Cardiff we discovered Curado and ended up visiting 3 times in 24 hours!! Amazing tapas and the variety of wines is mind boggling. The staff were so friendly too. Highly recommend it
E. D.
Excellent selection of Spanish meats, cheeses, fish, wine and beers, in a traditional setting. Staff are welcoming and very knowledgeable. Will definitely return.
Worth going to the connected Vermut bar for a pre/post drink also, to continue the ambience.
R. G.
Great night. Service was good and the food was delicious.
B.
We had a delicious birthday meal in Curado. The staff were attentive and friendly and the dishes each delicious. As there were a few of us we were able to sample a variety of dishes and none disappointed.
R. B.
Good atmosphere, super delicious food, recommended.
W. M.
Always good, never disappoints. Food great, wines and Sherry wonderful. Service with a smile in an enjoyable atmosphere. Hard to beat for tapas.
M. H.
We were visiting from out of town, and this was our best experience in Cardiff by far. We were greeted as soon as we arrived and shown immediately to our table (we had reserved in advance fwiw) and the atmosphere was casual and convivial.
We started with a few small dishes and some pan con tomato, and then moved on to a meat & cheese board (we chose 8 pc board for the two of us). This ended up being just right.
Our server for the evening was Imogen, and I can’t say enough about how wonderful she was. Lovely and warm from the beginning, she was incredibly helpful with our decision-making for both the food and wine, and when asked for her opinion she actually HAD AN OPINION (not just some regurgitated list of the specials). Brilliant!
When we finally left we were giddy from what a good experience it had been. Will definitely return on our next visit to Cardiff!
J. V.
One of the little places you'll get Spanish food right. They get the product, which is key, but they also have a respect for the dishes.
You might find it a bit pricey, but if you want the closest to the real deal, you'll need to pay for it.
G. J.
Popped in for lunch Excellent food (the iberico pork scratchings 😋)
Big portions
Lovely staff.
The pdf drinks menu accessed by QR code is a bit strange given you cant order via an app and the food menu is a standard laminated sheet of paper. Would be better if you could either order the drinks via an app or just have a physical drinks menu. Scrolling through the sizeable drinks menu via pdf on your phone is clunky.
That's a pretty minor grumble though and the drinks are excellent, the house red was suprisingly good.
Really nice Deli downatairs with an excellent choice of sherry, wine, meats etc.
Will be going back for sure.
J. W.
Visited Curado from a recommendation from Google, during a visit to Cardiff. Went for lunch on a Monday. Staff where excellent. As a novice to tapas the waiter explained through the menu for us. Had a excellent meal, which was well worth the visit. Would definitely go back and would recommend to friends.
P. C.
Absolutely love this Spanish bar and restaurant, it's the closest you will get to authentic tapas in Cardiff, we are regular visitors and have never been disappointed, always start with the pan con tomate!
S. D.
Lovely, friendly, very atmospheric bar. Definitely will attend again. Just drinks this time 🥂😁
L. I.
Go for the atmosphere not the food. Had a great night but was disappointed in the food quality and it felt like chain food. Chorizo was very soft, almost like a cheap hot dog. The portions were very large and would have much preferred quality over quantity. Also there weren't any napkins... Overall it's good for an evening meal or drink but wouldn't go back for the food.
R. S.
Food ok, bit small for the price sadly.. Good friendly service.
First and last time here for us.
J. A.
If you're looking for a quick visit to Spain, you don't need to travel far! Curado is so authentic! In its food and wine, but also in the lovely treat from Spanish-like relaxed and friendly treat of the personnel. Highly recommended!
M. R.
Food is so good, staff are great, first time here but won't be the last
C. M.
It's alright at best. The Pintxos were pretty flavourless and the Patatas Bravas were undercooked. the Bechemel Croquettas were outstanding and the highlight of the little meal we had. Perhaps it's best to stick to the meats and cheeses this place offer.
H. D.
First visit, but definitely not the last. The food was amazing, special mention for the churros and chocolate (thick, creamy and delicious). Jack, our waiter, was the icing on the cake, knowledgeable about the menu but witty and fun as well. Brilliant experience.
C. H.
I visited recently for some after work food and drinks and was pleasantly surprised. The staff here are extremely knowledgeable about their drink and food with the barman giving us a huge amount of information about the range of drinks that they had there.
The food menu is pretty extensive and has something to please everybody. Ordering was quick and easy and the food didn't take too long to come out, despite being very busy at the time we visited.
I highly recommend this place and will certainly be back for tapas here again.
C. D.
Fantastic food and a great host with Jack making my dad's birthday meal an absolute blast. First time visiting but we'll definitely be back, going to need more churros with hot chocolate
D. P.
Good range of food and drink. Very knowledgeable staff. Love the deli and can't wait for the vermouth bar to open
C. R.
Seriously this has to be one of the best dining experiences in Cardiff, Great food, Great drink, friendly staff and the atmosphere even on a Thursday night was great. Go, just go. Don't pause to think it's awesome.
S. M.
They've a wheatbeer on tap that's simply beautiful, best pint I've had for a long long time. They also had tapas which looked very nice
C. (.
Lovely tapas bar with brilliant staff. We were starving, and after some table shifting managed to get a seat on the terrace. Although we would have preferred to be inside (because it looked wonderful) we had a beautifully prepared meal, paired with great wine.
Thanks to Jack and the rest of the staff (particularly the chef) for the fantastic experience!
S. B.
This place was recommended to my friend and I by a Welsh friend, as we were staying in Cardiff for the Saturday night to see a concert. We booked a table for 6pm, and were greeted and sat down quickly - its a nice place with a great atmosphere, and it was already buzzy, even that early. We shared a bottle of wine, and about 5/6 plates of food, which was plenty. The menu was much more extensive than it had appeared online. Everything was brilliant, absolutely delicious and brought out fresh and hot. The only reason I’ve dropped a star is that we were told three times that we were under a two-hour time limit. That was absolutely fine - I’d been told when I booked, and two hours is a perfectly reasonable amount of time to spend at dinner. But being told a further two times made us feel a little unwelcome, and it was all at times when we still had food left/to come, so we weren’t exactly hanging out twiddling our thumbs or trying to get in the way. If you can serve us sufficiently in two hours, then great, but it’s not really my responsibility. I’d definitely go back and recommend it though, maybe they need a system where they mark off tables that have already been told about the two-hour limit, so they’re not told again and again.
R. M.
The folk at Curado have taken tapas and elevated it to a culinary art form. Possibly the best tapas I've ever had including whilst in Spain. A excellent selection of wine to accompany your selection along with various spirits is available.
Patatas bravas is, I feel, the benchmark dish of a tapas bar - if its wrong you probably aren't going to find anything worth your attention on the menu. Curado gets it absolutely right and they are delicious. There is a great combination of spice and salt. I can also recommend the Fritura de pescado: pieces of hake, cod, prawn, squid all in a light batter. It contains the best calamari I've had recently with all the textures balanced really nicely.
We went on a Friday lunchtime and there was just enough people around to keep a good atmosphere. The service is helpful, not intrusive at all and happy to recommend if you've ordered too much! Even after finishing we didn't feel pressured to move on.
All in all, a great experience
l. w.
Had a lovely evening at the curado bar. Food was to die for. Very authentic Spanish food. Waitress was really helpful and friendly. Will be definitely going again
J. H.
Had an absolutely great night. Hadn’t booked a table, but was lucky enough to get one of the tall tables opposite the bar. The menu is amazing, with some great fresh meats and cheeses from the deli section. We also had some of the hot dishes, which were also great.
The service was second to none. Teej helped us choose and explained what each dish was, and where it was from. She also recommended wines (a red and a white Rioja).
We had a great time, and were pleasantly surprised by the bill, considering how much we had eaten and drunk!
We’ll definitely be back any time we’re in Cardiff.
A. W.
Absolutely amazing place having moved back from Spain and feel quite depressed about it, this place is making me feel back at home all foods are sourced and made exactly like you have there... none if this fake tapas rubbish. My faviourte place now in Cardiff. Most recommended.
V. C.
Very good experience at Curado! They have good quality products and a menu that brings you back to Spain! Aupa!!
A. F.
Great food good service reasonable prices. Enjoyed
M. R.
Tasty food and very generous size portions at a very good price. I had the deep fried seafood mix. The photo shows only half of what was initially there.
M. A.
We come here a lot, and have yet to be let down. Fantastic, authentic food.
C. W.
I cannot highly recommend this place enough. I will definitely be coming back again here with my father before the wales game. We had tapas and it was absolutely outstanding
h. h.
Great sherry list. Friendly team. Some of the dishes have changed over the last couple of years - personal preference, obviously, but for me moving away from their authentic roots.
Still delicious though and the sea water beer is worth a visit alone
J. E.
A tapas bar in Cardiff which actually feels like a tapas bar as opposed to a taps themed restaurant. Big on gin, their branded Curado beer is very drinkable and the food is great which comes out of 2 kitchens depending on what you order. With a deli to boot and discounts on certain bulk items we've picked produce you would not find so easily elsewhere.
B. S.
I was there when it was slammed because of the rugby. They were short staffed so there was a bit of a wait, but was completely worth it. Food was amazing and staff were very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended their deserts.
C. J.
Lovely food and wine. Relaxed atmosphere. Great location in the city centre.
N. M.
Lovely tapas selection and really helpful staff. A pleasant time was had!
A. J.
One of the best tapas bar I've been to. Food, drinks and service was sublime. Well worth a visit.
K. N.
Genuine ingredients, friendly service, great wine. All in all a special place for a special occasion
M. T.
Randomly ended up here looking for a quiet drink. As two vegans probably not ideal being surrounded by cured meat but staff were great and the beer was good.
E. H.
Absolutely great place and the food was stunning. We will definitely be back.
S. O.
Amazing spontaneous lunch and imogen was so helpful with the menu,the pork belly is unbelievable 😋
P. J.
Super Friendly staff and good portions of food, good vibe to the place to be fair
P. B.
Love sitting at the bar and having some drinks and snacks.
Pintxos are good and Croquetas are great. Really good (if a little expensive) selection of wines. Staff are always really nice and friendly and there's usually a decent atmosphere.
New favourite bar snacks are their salted fried almonds, Gildas and pork scratchings
D. R.
Great tapas!
R. C.
It’s a great for true Spanish food and done deliciously! The service was top notch! 🤗 they had forgotten one of the food items but we were full. We were completely satisfied with the service, good and wine!

Very lovely sandwich and that tortilla and aioli was divine. Super friendly staff too
J. B.
Very helpful and knowledgeable in shop.

This place does tapas right. The key to delicious Spanish cuisine is the high quality authentic ingredients. This place imports from Spain, and much of it is even available in their adjoining shop. The prices are quite modest, even considering the quality. If you've eaten in Madrid, San Sebastian, etc, then you know what to expect, if not, then you've got a pleasant surprise waiting.
G. R.
A lovely night. The menu is comprehensive (silly amount of choice), the food was great quality and the staff were welcoming and helpful. What more could you want on Thursday night after work? I will definitely be visiting again. And to the lady at the deli counter, thanks for the Vermouth lesson!
P.
Lovely friendly service. Great atmosphere. Tasty tapas, decent portions.

Absolutely wonderful, can't wait for the vermut bar to open
M. F.
Wine and food were top class. Great Natural / Bio wine choices. Staff were really sweet and very knowledgable. Vegan menu available. Lovely, relaxed bar vibe. Highly recommended!!
A. B.
The food was a mixed bag, definitely not worth the prices they were charging. The service was friendly but poor with some dishes arriving past the point we had resigned ourselves to thinking they weren't coming and others not arriving at all (they were removed from the bill). For a bar that sells itself on its Tapas I've had petter at half the price in chain pubs.
M. C.
My favourite tapas and Spanish bar outside of Spain. Amazing food, brilliant staff, great deli and atmosphere. Love it here!

Lovely venue. The food was superb with generous portions. Definitely be back.

AMAZING. I haven't even left yet and I can honestly say that there's nothing I can think of that would've made my visit any better. The food was simply awesome. Will be coming back again and again. Reasonably priced, perfect food, awesome service, great wine, what more could you ask for!
The music was on point to!!
Thankyou for an awesome dinner! XX
(No photos because I was too busy eating!!) XXX

Been coming here before the rugby for just over a year now. The food is always incredible. Make sure you check the specials as there is always something you will want on there. Their saltwater beer is a must. Staff are really good as well, cheerful and attentive.
E. H.
I love this place and chose it for our first meal out after lockdown. Wasn't disappointed by the food and was impressed at how well they managed the social distancing. Felt relaxed and safe and well-fed.
E. W.
Absolutely delicious 😋 Excellent service by very knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic staff👍
T. P. S. T.
Went for the beer not the food. The beer I had was fantastic. Only three on tap but it was their own and it was good stuff. The price was ridiculous. It wasn't served in pints despite the strength of the beers bring no more the 5% and the price being very similar to pint prices in other places. The cost just isn't worth the great tasting beer. Such a shame.
L. C.
Great food, wine and beer. Serioulsy good. Atmosphere is fantastic, Adam the manager is an absolute Star. Looks after his customers fantastically well, and cannot wait to return.
M. L.
Super tasty tapas, with enough of a selection for veggies too. And, if you love the food, lots of the ingredients are for sale in their on-site Deli. Fab atmosphere and definitely one of my favourite places to eat in Cardiff at the moment.
T. R.
Excellent food and service but I thought was somewhat expensive. Fortunately, tapas dishes are large so you don’t need to many - 6 dishes between two chaps (who like to eat) was fine. Be aware some things like sparking water that are very expensive, I appreciate this is due to being imported from Spain. The water tasted lovely, but £6 ...
J. D.
Went for lunch on a Monday, the pinchos were half price. Everything I had was delicious, would have happily paid full price. The wine was very good.The vibe was very relaxed. Will try to get back soon.
H. S.
The coriander beer is amazing. Nice tapas!!!
S. B.
Absolutely top food, very friendly and helpful staff and great ambience. Thoroughly recommend it.
S. J.
Great atmosphere with a different mix of people from other bars and restaurants in the area. The food is spectacular, calamari to die for and having spent a good amount of time in places like this in Spain and Italy, I can say it’s authentic.
A. P.
Absolutely love this place, quality of food and staff is just as good as the day it opened
T. A.
Lovely place! Fabulous food! The best tapas I've had outside of Spain! Not pretentious, very friendly staff & not too expensive
N. C.
Great little find to watch the rugby. Great wine and food and the service was really good. Went about 30 mins before kick-off and easily got a seat and table. Will be coming back.
B. T.
Couldn't book online as it was a bit late, so me and my partner just turned up. There were no seats available other than at the bar. Order quite a lot of dishes and it was hard to spread them out with very little space, unfortunately the food wasn't anything special, in fact i'd probably have enjoyed chain food at bit more, idk maybe its just not my cup of tea. Bloody mary I had was good and the staff were really nice, probably be good to get drunk and have nibbles with friends than just for a date.
J. T.
So friendly and helpful.Def will revisit.Thanks guys
A. A.
Food is very good (particularly the more unusual plates), atmosphere casual, good selection of wines
But.. Ham came after some other plates, when pointed they said plates come as they are ready but this is elementary in a Spanish/Portuguese setting. Mistakes need to be accepted. Similar problem when a wrong plate was brought in a previous visit. It has the elements to be great but falters in small stupid things
M. B.
They have chipirones!!! So hard to find outside of Spain! Made my evening! The menu was varied and every single one of the dishes we tried was on point: the gambas juicy, the tortilla only partly set, the sobrasada spiced... The fabulous range of gins was also well worth exploring!
D. C.
Great for some chilled out tapas. Good service, good food and a great wine list. It's going to cost you £70 per couple in reality.
J. F.
Great tapas and great service. Prime view of team arrivals also.
A. P.
Popped in for a light lunch mid-shopping. On Monday, all pintxos are less than £2. There is a good selection for meat eaters and vegetarians. (Not sure about vegans) I had a pork loin pintxo which was delicious. The perfect combination of meat, pardon pepper and garlic aioli on a toasted bread. A nice selection of soft drinks, which didn't include the usual boring offerings of coke or pepsi. Staff member who served me was friendly and helpful. Would be a Monday regular if not for work / distance to Cardiff from home. Surprised it wasnt packed, serving such good food at these prices
J. C.
Great service when assisting me to pay for a friends meal, friendly, trusting and welcoming and my friend said the food was incredible too!
Keep up the good work guys.
M. M.
Good deli section, good service and excellent wines and tapas. Not cheap !
E. S.
Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere, amazing staff so friendly. Would almost always recommend picking a specials. The tortilla is one of the nicest I've had.

Came across Curado with my son just before the Wales v Scotland game...
Gem of a place! Had a couple of lovely tapas as in a rush but will 100% be back next time we are in Cardiff... 🤘
L. J.
A fab little tapas bar in the centre of town. Perfect for a few nibbles or several plates to share.

Only place that I could find estrella galicia beer in Cardiff.
C. R.
Spanish bistro with a really authentic feel. Friendly staff and a great selection of tapas The chorizo in red wine is so tasty - para chupar los dedos.
B. H.
Love the whole Ultracomida thing (Narberth, Aberystwyth & now Cardiff). The best tapas & pinchos anywhere. Fantastic deli with friendly, helpful & knowledgeable staff. This has a relaxed bar and plenty of tables.
A. H.
Great new tapas bar in Cardiff. Went on a Saturday evening and still managed to get a table with no reservation. Great food and good wine.

Don’t make deserts an after thought, make them a must.
But obviously fill your belly with amazing food and wines first.
L. p. F.
Quality products wine etc nice food but service was not so great as they serve food as it comes out and mine came too late there were only 2 plates nex table to us came later and had ell served at once . Will not come back!

This is a great tapas bar. Nice pintxos and main courses. Pleasant staff. Delicatessen attached.A lot of food sourced from Spain.
D. P.
Nice environment and good selection of wines; this place could be great however it's expensive for the quality and quantity, especially as their are other tapas bar's near by.
J. S.
Great food and wine and nice service. Relaxed atmosphere and you can eat and drink at the bar or in the upstairs restaurant.
G. T.
Great very authentic tapas bar. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Definitely will go back.
T. G. B.
Outstanding tapas and basque dishes with wines and a fully stock deli where you can buy products to take home. A bit small but at the same time, so are the tascas in Spain.
D. H.
Just had a birthday meal here. The food is superb and the staff are truly lovely. An experience and a must do...say no more
R. H.
Fantastic food, friendly and knowledgeable staff. The food is big on flavour and variety, highly recommend the chorizo in red wine!

Living in Narberth where we have the excellent Ultracomida on our doorstep we wondered whether Curado would be as good......and it was......Teej was brilliant and very helpful with her recommendation and the Tapas were incredible.
J. B.
Very helpful and knowledgeable in shop.
M. B.
Lovely little bar, some excellent bottle beer to buy and take away... nice food... only downside it's a little pricey
h. b.
Lovely food and good selection of drinks. Go early otherwise they will run out of popular items on the menu.
G. E.
Good tapas and pintxo, decent wine list. There's a deli attached to the place too, possibly a bit pricey but then the basic economics of it explain that.
P. L.
What a great place. Went there with me wifey before a gig at the CIA. Food fab but the service was the best thing. Atmosphere was really cool too.
L. C.
We went last night before going to theatre, beautiful quality food and wine, staff relaxed and informative, really patient with me and my husband whilst we ask about various items on menu, a wonderful choice, by far the best tapas we have had, and we have been to alot, also excellent quality portions, atmosphere spot on, we cant wait to go again Sam & Nic
c. b.
Food was delicious and they have two really nice Spanish beers. Maybe a tiny bit pricey for the quantity/quality, I preferred Bar 44 for that.
J. K.
What a great place. Live music great food and wine. What else can you ask for. Will definitely be back again.
M. C.
Very good tapas and wine. Would recommend the Patatas Bravas and the croquetas de jamon which were absolutely divine
P. F.
Left stranded in town on a Friday early evening with a hungry 90 year old in wheelchair (our original restaurant we had booked didn’t call us to mention their disabled lift was broken but they could help us carry our mother up 2 flights !! Yeh right !!
On the off chance I popped into Curado explained what had happened and could they accommodate 4 people including Wheelchair – The place was packed – The only accessible table was occupied but if we didn’t mind a makeshift table they could sort something out for us. Within minutes they brought out a table and 3 stools from back room and we were seated.
The staff couldn’t do enough for us. They were amazing. Mum being Spanish said the smells and atmosphere brought memories of childhood – the Tapas were excellent (think we sampled most of them) The Cava was flowing and the icing on the cake was that they sold Anis del Mono behind the bar Mum bought few things from their Deli Counter before we left.
After we took mum home my sister and I went back for a “night cap” Suffice to say from a disastrous start of the evening it ended being one for the memory books…Will most definitely go again and do recommend Curado’s for its authenticity, selection of foods wines and more so its staff…..Well done and thank you for making it a perfect evening
H. J.
Great and authentic Spanish cuisine. Get great pinxos without going to Spain. Lovely staff and a great deli too.

(Translated) The house omelette was very good. They put accompanying aioli. The attention was good and the service fast, although there was hardly anyone around 3.30 p.m.
I would love to return to try more dishes.
