    hola! this place is spantastic (thats spanish fantastic). Went here today with friends for lunch. reminds me of a holiday we spent in madrid, which is great because most melbournian tapas bars seem to be an excuse to offer small servings at extravagant prices. not anada. its the most spanish we've had this side of madrid. admittedly we were concerned about bringing our son but the manager was so accommodating. for lunch they had a $35 7 course special with a glass of wine. if you're hungrier they have 9 courses for $55 or 12 for $70 with dessert. the manager told us he'd bring us a selection & if we didn't like them he'd swap them for anything else. we were sold & we were very happy with the result. the wine list is vast. the ambience is fancy yet gritty. loved it & wanna go back! if you crave real tapas, come here!

    This place is fantastic - like MoVida without the attitude (or the need to book months in advance!). You must try the slow roasted beef cheeks... out of this world!!!

    This place is so delicious..... our whole group just loved it. The food, wine and service were all terrific. I would highly recommend, especially if you like to try spanish/european wines and enjoy sharing taste sensations tapas style.

    A group of us had the 12 course banquet the food and service was fantastic.
    The dessert Pedro Ximenez & muscatel ice cream set a new standard for ice cream. The slow coked pork ribs stood out too.

    This is a very small restaurant, so if you wish to dine here, make sure you book a table. The food is very tasty and well presented, and well worth the cost. There is an extensive wine menu, and if you are not sure what would suit your meal, ask one of the wait staff. They are very knowledgeable and more than happy to offer a suggestion.

    Anada has arrived and conquered, adding new vigour to Gertrude Street with unpretentious style.

    Out on the street, opposite Gertrude Contemporary Art Spaces, a man and a woman of overtly artistic leanings are thumbing manuscripts, drinking Spanish beer, smoking fat rollies and talking on telephones. All at the same time. At another table, under the still-glorious evening sun, two mid-20s girls are drinking beer and sharing modest plates of food. Go inside, and three guys at the copper-clad bar are finishing what appears to have been a long, mid-afternoon Sunday tapas session; a table of chefs down from Sydney with their girlfriends is working its way through the menu with gusto; and at the very back, around what serves as the high, communal table, a group of fiftysomething males is enjoying an early dinner. It's a scene that is pure Fitzroy, 2008. In a brief time, Anada has arrived and conquered, adding new vigour to Gertrude Street with unpretentious style, a low-fi vibe and an intangible memory of a lost Spanish moment that is perfectly pitched for the times and the...
