“ Great place for seafood tapas, they have a huge selection. Pro Tip: you can ask for 1/2 rations (instead for a full plate). ”
“ Came here for lunch and everything was incredible. Although they have an English menu, everything is very Spanish. Most of the dishes are seafood, but even though my husband doesn’t like seafood he ordered the entrana and it was very good. You can’t go wrong with any dish here. Service is fast and the waiters are pretty attentive. ”
“ 5stars service, nice staff, reasonable price. I recommend the pulpo, berberchos and snails. I suggest to make the reservation in advance because it's so busy place. ”
“ OMG This was one of the best meals ever! We ate mussels and octopus, everything came within 10 min. If you want to wait for the table it will be a looong wait. We took to sit at the bar. Waitress was so nice and polite. The restaurant is crowded. The dishes are amaaaaazing. ”
