The food was excellent, with a relaxed family friendly environment. The service was another plus, very kind and attentive staff that strive to provide a great experience. The jewel in the menu was the alcachofas with gambas, a grilled artichoke with jamón curado and shrimp topping, simply delicious and very original. A must try The place is usually busy so reservations are recommended

The staff went out of their way to accommodate the group, joining tables together with seemingly no interruption of normal service to customers. The food was outstanding a variety of meat and seafood dishes and prices were extremely reasonable for the quality and quantity of portions. Smaller segments of the reunion group returned on multiple occasions over the course of a week. Feedback was consistently favorable and the restaurant was certainly a favorite for attendees. Also of note, the restaurant is within short walking distance of the Hotel Playa de la Luz.
