We walked past this place on our first day and saw how busy it was so had to try it, our language skills were not the best so we asked for some help and ended up with the small snails boiled in there massive pot and then a portion of the spicy snails. It was around 2 pound for each so the price is very very cheap but the taste goes way beyond that. It's a fun tatsy experience I love snails but have only ever had them as you would in France which would be filled with garlic. This was completely new the flavours balanced really well and the boiled snails packed alot of flavour and if your on a diet you also feel like your burning calories while eating as it does take some work so it's perfect for you. The park where the seating area looks out to is lovely and it's the perfect place to have a snack on a sunny day so don't be scared...

Both portions came with a small loaf of bread. Cost for each was 3,00 euros. It was a little messy to eat and takes a bit of time to take the snail meat out. Overall, I would say, it was an experience to try at least once if you want to...
Read moreThe snails were tasty and cheap. I tried the chicos and gordo; def prefer the latter. The chicos would be fun if you want to spend a long time chitchatting and pick them out of the shell. It was rather clean for an outdoor spot. There are regular table seatings and also a bar table. I was surprised by the low ratings, but those are just from people not liking snails in general and had nothing to do with the service or quality of the food itself. Do...
