Reviews Summary
L'Arcada is celebrated for its delicious, abundant portions and excellent value, particularly the highly recommended fisherman's rice and local specialties like Pulpo a la gallega. Diners praise the friendly staff and charming atmosphere, with many calling it a hidden gem. While most reviews are glowing, a few mention that some desserts can be on the drier side, though this can be mitigated with coffee.
"Beautiful venue with a local ambiance. Perfect for any group size as they offer down and upstairs seating along with outside. Ordered two glasses of white wine (3.50pp), fisherman’s rice (21€pp), and a coconut lemon cake(6.50).
Fisherman’s rice: 10/10. Perfect seasoning and good amount of seafood. Highly recommended.
Coconut lemon cake: 3/10. Although they have many house made cakes, I was disappointed with this one. It was on the drier side and crumbled immediately after getting a spoonful. The icing seemed old or left out for a while as well. However….. with an espresso, the cake rose back up from the dead and was edible.
Despite the dessert, I’d come back again. Maybe next time, I’ll for the waiter’s recommendation of the red velvet."

"Loved this beautifully designed amazing place! The pasta carbonara, and the paella were so delicious. We got the dinner three course menu, and it was worth every penny. The desserts were out of this world. I wish I could go back and just eat desserts there. We got the custard and a cake! We got the sangria pitcher, it was delicious. Highly recommend."
