"Se come muy bien, las raciones son abundantes y la materia prima buenísima. Los calamares fritos están tiernos y el rebozado es super leve, espectaculares. El atún es un filete generoso muy jugoso que lo dejan rosa por el centro, me encantó. Lo único que me fallaron fueron las coquinas porque estaban como fritas, se habían quedado enanas y secas."

"Pescado fresco y de calidad, servicio a mesa muy rápido, al igual que trayendo la comida. El camarero muy amable. Muy satisfechos, volveremos a probar más cosas. Como pega diría que no tienen carta donde ver los precios antes de pedirlo, lo pides un poco a ciegas pero bueno, el precio como en todos lados"

"En la terraza del bar llegué un poco antes de la apertura y el camarero Héctor fue muy amable ,me ofreció una mesa para sentarme y me puso al día con el menú! Recibí un trato de lo más profesional, las gambas (fresquísimas) las exhibieron antes de prepararlas! Toda la comida excelente! Un ambiente ideal para ir solo, en compañía o en familia! Lo recomiendo %. Gracias."

"Tienen terraza, el trato es correcto hacia el cliente, tengo que decir que la tapa era de pescado fresco eso es de agradecer la buena calidad , si le tengo que poner una falta es porque no hay cerveza Alhambra, tan solo 1925 lo digo para los forofos de nuestra cerveza. Por lo demas es totalmente recomendable si cruzas la calle ahi un parque ideal para las familias."
