What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners praise the restaurant for its exceptional rice dishes, particularly paella, and the stunning beachfront view. The friendly service, especially from staff like Brian, is frequently highlighted, as are the unique and delicious desserts. However, some guests find the experience to be overpriced for the quality and presentation, with a few noting issues with service timing and a lack of flexibility in accompaniments.
"We had our first date 2 days ago in Porta del Sol, after 2 days of travelling. The food was amazing, we had the best steak tartar ever. We ordered a brownie vanilla ice cream dessert, which turned out to be a beautiful 2 person, heart shaped, melting chocolate dessert with the brownie and ice cream hidden within the heart chocolate. The food was simply amazing and we are very thankful and grateful for the welcoming, friendly, open and good service. And a big special thanks to Brian, who made sure that all our needs were met. As two foreigners in Spain, we couldn’t recommend them more"

"Wonderful paellas. Thin, well cooked and served with nice allioli sauce (optional, traditional sauce made out of garlic and olive oil). Sat in the terrace by the beach in February (18C). All in all, outstanding experience. Something to improve: the timing of the service might have been slightly better adjusted for a perfect experience"

"Great place for a rice!!!! Arròs del Senyoret (clean out of shells) and some apetizers and easily you get a good taste of a Valencia rice (in this case dried, no soup)..... i reallly enjoyed the personal service, location in front of the beach, winter easy parking and modern decoration. Amazing bread with tomato and all-i-oli (garlic and oil sauce) to start. Good local white wine suggestwd by waiter. Overall good place to have a great lunch!!!! Huge, amazing cheesecake. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼"
