We met Sergio, an amazing bartender who makes one of the best mojitos I've ever had. Sergio speaks great English, and has an amazing story. So happy we got a chance to meet him.

Hake was ordered by my wife and I found it to be not as good as other Hake I have had. A friend ordered the roasted pork and he said it was very good. I would return.

The place was chock full of flies, and dark and the service was so dog slow (we had to wait ages for our food, and it took over 10 minutes of them at the till, messing around to pay the bill) Its a shame, because the salads were actually quite nice, but at 28.80 euros I'd have expected better. This place are taking advantage of their location, and the tourism in the area. I'd not recommend it and when back this way again, I'd avoid like the plague
