Diners rave about signature dishes like the steakboard and creative tapas, as well as the welcoming atmosphere.

"This was the best place we've eaten in a while. The waiter was so helpful, advising us about some of the dishes. The food was outstanding in both presentation and taste. We chose the steak board and pear salad as well as three tapas dishes. We were served a couple of the tapas as a starter, which was great. We liked it so much that we booked to go again during our week here. The prices were also very good. The only problem was finding the place. Because it's upstairs you need to look for Palm 5 Beach Bar and the stairs are just to the left as you look at it. Definitely recommend."

"Lovely place! They have some nice options for vegetarians as well- I recommend the stuffed pasta. Also deserts are very good- especially that limoncello ice ball thingy.
Sunset on the terrace overlooking the beach with one of their great sangrias - I would come back just for that! The two women waiting on us were also super friendly."

"A little hard to find. A clue, it’s above Palm 5 Beach bar and not opposite the gym like Apple Maps was telling me. The food is amazing, the people that work there are amazing. It’s cosy and full of friendly atmosphere. You won’t be rushed!"
