What the critics say...

Dear Pepe
Putney Labour Party’s Annual Dinner 17 May 2007
"I am writing to thank you and your staff for the wonderful evening we had at our dinner held at the Ole Resturant recently.

All our members told me how much they enjoyed the event and several said that the food was the best they had ever had at one of our dinners. I know it is quite difficult to cater for so many in one sitting, plus the resturant was open to other dinners, but the chef and his staff excelled themsleves. We would certainly recommend your resturant to others.

Thanks once again for ensuring that we all had a good time."

"We went to Ole Putney last night & had a great time. The food was delicious and everyone was very impressed with what good value the £14.95 tapas menu was. Please do pass on our thanks to the Putney team".

"Everyone was most attentive, polite and so helpful throughout the whole evening.
Dinner served hot, promptly and with every individual requirement met without reminding. The food was amazing and really exceptional.
We definitely have you on our top five restaurants we shall visit regularly with the family when visiting London.
Far exceeded our expectations, as did the dinner, which was utterly delicious in every way. We shall be recommending you to everyone we can."

“Ole certainly has all the ingredients of a hidden treasure. I discovered the menu that was very smart in its choice of homemade tapas. The food is fresh and goes tad further then usual deep-fried squid rings. There were warm croquettes filled with cheese, spinach and ham, as well as toast topped with warm aubergine, roasted tomato, cheese and olives. There was also exemplary Spanish omelette, cooked to order, with a warm filling of onions and smooth potatoes. Beautiful.”

“Ole staff were very friendly and attentive but also allowed us plenty of time to peruse the extensive menu. The pork was beautifully cooked – tender and juicy – and we especially enjoyed the fluffy Spanish Omelette, which was packed with mouth-watering pieces of chorizo. A few larger main courses are available for those who do not fancy sharing tapas, and there is a reasonably priced wine list.
I would definitely return to Ole, if only to try a different selection of the dishes on offer. Whether you eat out as a couple or with a large group of friends, this is a great place to try”

“Olé is several cuts above the standard London tapas bar. It occupies a cool, elegant, white-walled space; the food is carefully prepared and artfully presented; and the drinks (the short, all-Spanish wine list in particular), is well-sourced and sold at reasonable prices.”

Critics Choice (RED STAR) Time out Eating & Drinking Guide (2003, 2004, 2005)


“In an area of London stuffed to the gills with places to dine and drink, Ole has rapidly established itself as a favourite. Some places just have that 'it' factor, and while Ole isn't grand or supercool, it does seem to have plenty of 'it'. The tapas are superb. Seriously. Try croquettes filled with cheese, spinach, and ham, one of the gorgeous Spanish omelettes with chorizo or bonito, better-than-usual patatas bravas, and terrific charcuterie, the surtido de Ibericos. The wine list is Iberian and very well chosen. The service is eager and friendly and the whole experience just right.”

"I celebrated my 40th birthday at Ole's in Putney on Saturday, 1st April. It turned out to be a hugely successful evening. Fabulous food, a great venue and friendly service helped to make it the perfect venue for a special night out.
Many thanks to all the staff for helping to make the evening fun and relaxed. I'll definitely return as will many of my friends I'm sure."
