"Good value for 12€ Menu del dia. Had Gazpacho, large bowl with fresh cut veggies, one of the best I have had. The paella mixta was good for the price, I enjoyed. Also came with bread bun and olive oil on the table for dipping and dessert, flan in my case."

"The comments I have read made me go and try thd food and make my own observations. The food is of a standard equal to the price you pay. Reasonable. The attention by the head waiter and his team are more than adequate. The situation of the premises is satisfactory. The Alioli is worth going for."

"The atmosphere in the evening is super and very lively. The service is second to none. I highly recommend it. However, tonight it was pretty awful . We were not recognised nor was the service good. It had all the characteristics of a dead fly and the personality of one too. Never again."
