Definitely try a few tapas, especially the Papas arrugadas with mojo. Tip: inland order meat, on the coast always go for seafood.

My fiance is getting sick as im typing this and i keep belching and all i feel is heartburn and the oil coming back up. Sorry for the brutal truth but im absolutely furious. Ordered garlic soup, garlic prawns, fried small squid. All food was swimming in oil! The flavours were bland and we werent sure about the freshness of the seafood. The prawns were pasty and falling apart and swimming in oil, the small squid was deepfried(this was not specified on the menu) and was saturated in oil, the garlic soup was inedible as it was pure oil. This was taken away and i was offered to replace it with seafood soup... i should have said no as what came out was absolutely horrible and tasted like it was 4 days old. So i had just left it. Granted i was not charged for the soup so thats the only slight positive to the whole situation. The service was plain and not warm, staff felt tired like they didnt want to be there. If i could give -5 starts i would. In hindsight we should have just got up and left as soon as that food came out but we wanted to be decent..big mistake
