    Llegamos a este sitio por casualidad., sin duda alguna un gran acierto, lugar, comida y sin lugar a duda la excelente atención del personal atentos agradables y nos asesoraron y atendieron de forma espectacular. Quien dijo que a los de Madrid en Cataluña nos tratan mal, sitio de 10 sin duda alguna repetiría cada vez que viniera aquí

Whoever said that those from Madrid in Catalonia treat us badly, place out of 10 without a doubt I would repeat every time I came here

    Comida excelente!
    Hemos comido un menú de arroz.
    Los entrantes que entran en el menú muy ricos y se nota que es producto fresco de calidad.
    El pincho de sardina estaba riquísimo, super suave con el toque de modena perfecto y muy jugoso.
    El tartar también rico.
    Los pescados fritos con buen sabor, nada aceitosos.
    LOS MEJILLONES A LA SARTEN LOS MEJORES QUE HE COMIDO HACE MUCHO TIEMPO... DE VERDAD RIQUÍSIMOS.
    De arroz hemos escogido el arroz de carabineros...este arroz merece una felicitación porque estaba perfecto de sabor y muy bien cocinado.
    Los postres también riquísimos. Hemos comido una torrija y carpaccio de piña, estaban muy muy buenos, como todo lo demás.
    Buena atención.
    REPETIRÉ SIN DUDA CUANDO VUELVA Y RECOMENDARÍA A TODOS.
    GRACIAS EQUIPO!

    Excellent food!
    We have eaten a rice menu.
    The starters that are on the menu are very delicious and you can tell that it is a fresh, quality product.
    The sardine skewer was delicious, super soft with the perfect touch of modena and very juicy.
    The tartar is also delicious.
    The fried fish have good flavor, not oily at all.
    THE FRYING MUSSELS ARE THE BEST I HAVE EAT IN A LONG TIME... REALLY DELICIOUS.
    For rice we have chosen Carabineros rice...this rice deserves congratulations because it was perfect in flavor and very well cooked.
    The desserts are also delicious. We had French toast and pineapple carpaccio, they were very very good, like everything else.
    Good attention.
    I WILL REPEAT WITHOUT A DOUBT WHEN I RETURN AND I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE.
    THANK YOU TEAM!

    Un servicio de 10 y la comida espectacular. Uno de esos sitios donde repites seguro. A lo mejor es un poco caro para algunas personas, pero vamos nada fuera de lo razonable. Sencillamente magnífico

    Espectacular. Menú degustación paella buenísimo y con buen precio para la calidad de producto que dan. Pagamos 46 euros cabeza con botella de vino, cerveza de aperitivo, y el menú, pero casi no hizo falta ni cenar. Todo estaba riquísimo, y la paella de secreto lo mejor.

    Spectacular. Very good paella tasting menu and with a good price for the quality of the product they provide. We paid 46 euros per head for a bottle of wine, beer as an aperitif, and the menu, but we hardly even needed dinner. Everything was delicious, and the secret paella was the best.
