What saintlysinner doesn't like about Tamboril:
This was recommended by someone's food judgement I trust...Well they let me down by recommending this place. I could see why it was empty. I had their legendary mushrooms and the fried prawns...tiny portions and flavour less..I couldn't wait to leave...my least favourite pinxto bar on my trip. View all feedback. What User likes about Tamboril:
warm place. good bar to sit there and eat pintxos and have a glass of wine. excellent attention. the best pinxtos are those with cod-filled pepper and seasonal widths. View all feedback.
