"Good quality food and service"
Aleco Alejandro
"Quick and attentive service! But stale bread, low quality wine, paella with overcooked seafood (available immediately so likely reheated), salad with unripe tomato and wilted lettuce, too-salty squid that had a bad texture… dessert was great though! Menu del día for 17 euro."
Alex Schaefer
"We can't recommend this place. Among the restaurants on the Promenade of San Vicente, this one is a really bad one. Service is quick, but really grumpy. The food is awful except for the merluza which was quite good. The lasagne was also palatable. The meat was of bad quality although well prepared. The seafood in the paella de marisco made us ask ourselves if we would be sick the next day. The French fries were soggy. There are surely better restaurants in San Vicente."
