I am so happy that the place we chose to eat originally was closed and we visited this tapas restaurant instead! Lovely food! Everything was delicious, and portions were really generous. I really liked the service. The lady was so nice and explained everything to us. There was no long wait and everything was fresh. I am sure we will visit again if we are in the area.
Clearly a popular option, with quite a wide ranging menu. Slightly surprised, but very happy, to see stuffed courgette flowers on the menu in November! There were the standard Spanish dishes you'd expect to see, and enough vegetarian options to make a meal. Some dishes were very rich, so you might want a salad or something to cut through that.
I've deducted a point for some fairly aggressive wine up selling. I get it's the job of serving staff, but there's a way to do it.
Booking advised.
Amazing authentic Spanish food and an absolutely lovely and friendly service. I can’t wait to come back again for more tapas!!
Best Spanish restaurant I had ever tried in UK, tapas and paella are all perfect, price is relatively high but definitely worth it, highly recommended.
Excellent Spanish dishes. You can imagine you were in Spain, though in sterling ££ pricy a bit.
We dined out at Don Louis last night in Esher and it was an fantastic experience as always. I have eaten here twice before - Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Atmosphere 10/10. We went with a mix of Tapas and a few bits from the specials board. It's nice to see an independent restaurant in the Highstreet who knows what they're doing - Look forward to coming back soon
I could close my eyes and imagine eating this food in Spain. It was delicious, and the portion was big. The server was friendly and overall a nice restaurant.
Just discovered Don Luis in last few months and been twice already. Really delicious beatiful food cooked with skill and flare. Great specials board. Polite friendly service with a family feel with a good atmosphere. Good wine list and best of all food and wine are reasonably priced for Esher compared to other resturants. Already booked our 3rd visit.
Very nice place. I'm from Catalonia and I can say that this restaurant serves proper tapas. The food was delicious and the service was very nice too. The price wasn't too bad, considering that we are in UK.
This is my favourite place in Esher, the staff is friendly and attentive. The Spanish wines are great and the food is amazing (I ate already in a few occasions here) every time is everything is wonderful, today I had the special ribs croquets WoW!!! I will be back. Thank you again!
Firstly, excellent service! Felt like we were in one of those fine restaurants with our own sommelier but guidance on the tapas also spot on. The food was authentic and delicious. Definitely going back as too much to choose from and it was an experience to be repeated. Not been out in evening for long time so this was a welcome treat.
Really great place! Delicious food. Friendly service. Buzzy atmosphere. It is pricey (e.g. £10 for a large glass of wine or a glass of sangria). But otherwise perfect.
Excellent food, I only had tapas; 4 different ones (chicken, lamb skewers, galician octopus, and tortilla) and dessert (crema catalana). But I found it expensive for the portion sizes you get. Anyway, my wife and two other lady friends loved it too and found the portions OK. The red wine I chose (Navarra region) was excellent.
We had another lovely meal at don luis as always .. BUT…SHRINKFLATION has hit Esher the portions were so much smaller less Jamon less gambas and the cheese board was tiny and uninteresting for £15 !! Come on Don luis don’t rip us off!!!!
Absolutely delectable, delicious, scrumptious. This is the only photo I took because the food was so tasty I forgot to take any more. The chorizo: 😋 The black pudding 😋 The salted cod 😋😋 (amazingly crisp batter) The padron peppers 😋 (full and succulent)
Everything was top notch.
Apparently gets quite busy on race days so possibly worth checking when you book.
Worth noting that the loos are up a flight of stairs.
Lady who served (maybe owner) was knowledgeable, prompt, and very helpful
Having lived in Valencia, I was glad to find authentic dishes, cooked well and full of flavour. We will be back!
Great food, lovely friendly staff, group of 4 of us and we all enjoyed the whole experience.
We will be back, thank you.
