It’s a beautiful peaceful place, with attentive staff and wonderful seafood. The lobster was amazing and so was my turbot the stand out were the grilled black scallops, the best thing I’ve tasted! This place is pricey but it’s a great experience I would certainly recommend!

From the waiters, to the sommelier to finally Berto’s they were all super friendly and amazing service . We shared the tuna tartar with some almejas both fantastic . We also had the palometa roja which I strongly suggest delicious!! For postre, you must order the cheesecake best cheesecake ever . Overall a fantastic place and a must go if you are in this beautiful region in Spain.

We had travelled there especially, it took one and a half hours to get there) and we had high expectations of this well renowned seafood restaurant. The owner and staff were extremely pleasant and attentive and we ordered several quality dishes such as xanburiñas, navajas and camarones. We wanted to order some langosta as this is our particular favourite, giving us a good reason to go there. The owner however talked us in to having the bogavante, which was the cheaper of the two options…I wonder why! He said that this was his particular favourite, as it had a slightly stronger flavour and recommended that we try it as it would be every bit as good as the langosta, which we had come for. Thinking that his recommendation must be good as the owner of this establishment), we decided to go ahead with a kilo of bogavante at 99 euros a kilo! Price was not the issue. Imagine our disappointment when we started to share one half of this bogavante and found lots of bony cartilage, lots of roe which was unappealing to us we do however enjoy langosta roe) and above all very little flesh…was this what we were paying almost 100 euros for? We decided that we were not happy to eat the second half and I felt that I needed to speak to the owner to see what could be done. Although he apologised profusely, he made excuses, saying that in the summer the females have less flesh than in the winter and more roe and that there was flesh inside the claws..which granted there was some, but not sufficient to eat as a main course. He then asked us what we wanted to do..at no point did he offer any compensation. We decided that we’d come there for the langosta and subsequently noticing that all of the langosta meals served to other clients looked very fleshy, we decided to order one for a further 165 euros as it was a special occasion. This whole procedure entirely ruined what was meant to be our very special meal out…the hilight of our gastronomic trip! To cap it all, when the bill arrived, the owner said he wouldn’t charge us for the second half of the bogavante ..how kind!!! I would have expected this type of quality restaurant to have offered us some form of compensation in the way of removing the total cost of the bogavante which we did not enjoy or at least to remove the two glasses of wine not even a bottle) and coffees from the bill. We left the restaurant with a sour taste in our mouths. Unfortunately a special anniversary meal which will be remembered for all the wrong reasons.

The seafood is good and the service is excellent, but it's more a matter of they have the biggest (lobsters, cigalas, percebes) and charge very high for the privelege. In terms of quality, the seafood in the whole region is great, so you are paying for the size factor rather than the quality. Additionally their cooking uses way too much salt. There was salt crystals stuck onto the crab and percebes that made our lips sting. They also charge for bread and tap water, without telling you. In comparison, I think Ramiro in Lisbon is better (and cheaper) but not bigger.
