El Gosto del Gourmet — Restaurant in Alicante

Definitely do not recommend! The place seems to be fancy but they have their menu so destroyed you cannot read half of the stuff and it's all only in Spanish. All drinks are not in the menu, so I paid 5€ for water and 5€ for the cup of wine which I didn't get to choose.

They make an effort to speak in your language and overall it was very pleasant to deal with them. We liked the place so much that we might go back for a third time before we leave Alicante and go back home. P.S. If you go in the early evening, booking is...

I wish I could score this place with a 6 star!
