"Good service, good price,. Small tapas plates so you can taste a good veriety. The food is good but not the greatest, a bit wannabe fusion modern tapas bar."
Rotem Rehan
"Cash only or bizum.... Didn't see when I walk in and thankfully I had some cash on hand!
Food was disappointing. Had migas and bacalao dorado. Had expected more given the good reviews.
White lights so ambiance was rather off. Plates I got were chipped. So tells me they don't care much about minor things but that's probably a fair warning that food would be just be ok.
Service was good and friendly. But they could really do better with food.
There's no tap beer. Maybe they don't get that much customers?
Given I was hungry, it filled an empty stomach but I could have used my money and had something better someplace else."

Umami, estaba frente a nuestro alojamiento pero cerrado por vacaciones, lastima!. Al parecer las raciones y las tapas son ricas y con muy buena presentación.
