However, two of our group were pescatarian and they were happy to accommodate that because we had let them know in advance. Everything was superb, world class standard. And it’s incredible value for money for such gourmet food. The place is small, about 6 tables, and the friendly chef came out to introduce each dish. Worth a special trip.

Yes we were the first customers of the day and not Spanish, but we seemed to enjoy special attention from the chef. He did tell us he enjoyed practising his English. Chef delivered every dish, all 8, to our table with a detailed explanation. They were both fantastic and interesting. Yes there were 2 we found challenging to our tastes, but the other 6 were divine and you go a restaurant like this to be challenged as well as entertained. Service was fantastic from the sommelier too. So helpful providing great choices. Highly recommended.
