We had a variety of appetizers and just one main dish to share. Each appetizer was tasty and delightful.

Definitely much better in all senses than restaurants that are more attractive with regards to physical location.

We saw that there were only a couple of tables occupied on the outdoor terrace, which had a nice view of harbor but would occasionally have a wave sweep over it. The waiter showed us a list of all the fish that were available. We sat down and were shocked at the price of the seafood. I'm sure that they had very few on the premesis but shared a source with the other couple of restaurants in town, so probably not fresh. We decided to try a couple of very overpriced starters. Breaded fried chipirones (squids) for 14 euros!! (normally around 6) and sardines for 9. The waiter was surly and had to be asked 3 times to bring us our water and wine. The food came and was at best dissapointing. The Chipirones were greasy and falling apart (probably frozen even though we asked if they were fresh, the sardines were funky, not fresh either. When you pay that much for a view, the food should at least be above average this was well below. I got up to pay since the 3 waiters for 5 tables didn't respond. At the cashier, the woman in charge of pension was at the till. she old me to get it from the waiter who sort of threw it at me.

It is very quiet and quaint but with great sea views. This restaurant is set back slightly but has sea views. Service was very good with olives gazpacho served with our beers. We had a good pizza and Dorada expertly cooked. I also had a great chunk of home made chocolate cake marvellous. Highly recommended.
