“ Given the review we were not sure, but we enjoed the food a lot. The people were very freindly given my level of Spanish and their level of English. The only problem was that we did not understand properly the price for paella and accidentally spent more money than had planned to. However the food and experience was worth it. ”
“ Having read all the reviews (after we sat down) I was expecting the worst but we were pleasantly surprised. We ordered grilled fish (5x mixed fish on a plate) and pork with fries and fried egg. Very tasty. That, together with three beers, bread, two coffees and a bottle of water came to €47. Not cheap, not expensive. I would go there again. ”
“ We initially excluded the restaurant from our options as it had a low rating until we have seen that it was almost full each evening, therefore we have it a chance, and it surprised us in the best possible way. Amazing anchovies salad with delicious tomatoes,vând a great Russian salad. Highly recommend it for fresh fish as well, really an authentic, nice and pleasant restaurant. ”
“ We only stopped for a quick bite , but liked what we saw. Had a drink and a tapa and some mussels, the biggest I've ever had! The place isn't cheap, but for the beachfront location it's ok. Friendly service too, despite it being very busy. ”
