There are some local specialities and of course good seafood/fish. One pointer, my husband is Gluten Free and was so happy here loads of choice! He hasn't had croquetas in years. The restaurant has seamlessly incorporated GF into the way they work without any fuss, as it should be.

Our greeting on arrival was positive enough although they tried to seat us next to a family with 3 children despite us being the only guests in the restaurant.. We ordered mussels for starters which were fine . We had fish casserole with lobster for main course which was €54 had one tiny lobster to share no actual meat to share a few mussels two prawns two clams with salty rice very unimpressed … Service was amiable enough but unfortunately does not make up for disappointing food …

The food was excellent, my husband having mussels or squid and me having lamb, duck and chicken, all excellent and perfectly cooked. The best restaurant in Calella for it’s warmth of service and standard of food.

They accommodated for my severe fish allergy so we were able to enjoy a very tasty paella and appetizers. The food was great, the service was spot-on and the experience was over the top. Good job everyone!
