It has been the best meal of our holiday so far. Amazing value 3 tasty courses, wine, water, bread and coffee for 24 euros each. As a vegetarian it can be tricky to find really good food in Santander, but I didn't have too much trouble tonight. Beautiful view and friendly staff. Definitely recommend this restaurant. We only wish we had tried it before night 4!

For an inclusive price of 24 Euros each, everything really was included: all the food, extra little touches, wine, water, coffee. And the food was very good, plentiful, and attractively presented. My choice, selected from a wide range of options, was a goat’s cheese salad, with the cheese very lightly fried and served on top of a mound of salad ingredients with a sweet and spicy flavour, then a veal schnitzel with lovely fresh vegetables and an ice cream dessert made up of a trio of water ices of different and interesting flavours served on a crisp toffee shell. Highly recommended, reserve a table to be sure of getting in.

They didn't make a fuss, they re set the table for us so we could all sit together, (we were a party of 8). We had a beautiful view of the water, and they brought a high chair for the baby. There was a very good selection of choices for a 3 course menu which included wine, water and coffee for 24 euro per person. Between everyone at the table we tried most of the things on the menu. I would disagree with some of the reviews that I read. The portions were a fair size, as well as all of the food was very good. The only dish I wouldn't necessarily recommend is the pork. It was battered and served with fries it didn't seem up to the quality of all of the other food we had. It also was a bit fancier than I was expecting it to be, we were a bit underdressed, but it didn't seem to be an issue. I highly recommend, and certainly would return to this restaurant.

Nice food but depending on what you get the amount could be a bit too little, so a bit expensive. The rice and the meat were really nice though.
