“ I had the paella de campo and my girlfriend had the seafood paella and we were both delighted with the quality of the food. It took a while for the food to arrive but it was worth the wait. I am surprised this restaurant doesn't have a higher rating. ”
“ It was one of the few restaurants open that night so we went, in spite of the 3.8 rating (at the moment). But it turned out definitely much better! Sould be far over 4. The service was very good, they instantly sent us an English-speaking waiter who was very friendly. And advised us on the menu. The food was also delicious. Not maybe the best place on the island, but recommended for a very good dinner. ”

“ Absolutely perfect evening and meal. We went there hoping for Russian salad but ended up eating some way more interesting dishes. Greeted and seated up quickly. We opted for Trip of dips to share and omg the baked apple hummus is to die for. We also had Canarian potatoes, gypsy squid and feta stuffed peppers and ended up with no space left for dessert. Everything was super delicious and portions generous. Our waiter was lovely and charming even with language barrier. Overall amazing experience. ”
