Paella is also delicious. Comes with a kick. Desert is a dream. They get busy so serves a little slow (as everywhere is Spain) but the server was attentive and helpful and 4ppl with a bottle of wine and completely full with deserts comes to €110 ain’t bad at all."

May 20, 2026"We had a great meal in this restaurant! We booked with TheFork discount and it was totally worth it! We started with the tuna ceviche, which was amazing! The acidity was great and the tuna was fresh. Then we tried the Camembert, which was fantastic! The seasoning was very tasty. The main dish was the octopus rice, which I really enjoyed! The combination with the sobradada was well achieved. To finish, we ordered the traditional dessert crema catalana, which was good, with a crunchy caramelised top part. The service was nice and the atmosphere was enjoyable. Overall, I can recommend this restaurant for a great and not too expensive meal!"

A special thank you to Erika — she is incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive. Her positive energy and care truly made our experience even better. Service like hers makes you want to come back again. Highly recommended!"
