About La Maja Spanish Restaurant & Tapas Bar
La Maja is a lovely restaurant decorated solely with Spanish materials for an authentic ambience of great style. Nibble your way through the tapas menu, including chorizo espanol al vina or calamares either fried or grilled, or indulge in main course favourites like medallions of fillet of beef in wine sauce or breaded escallop of veal with asparagus. The paellas are good, too. Terrific mostly Spanish wine list - we love the riojas. Live Spanish music on a Friday and Saturday
