Restaurante No Stress — Restaurant in l'Ametlla de Mar

Warning - poor food hygiene! My wife and I, plus our daughter and her boyfriend, visited this place for lunch today. The service was very slow even though the restaurant was empty. We ordered 2 Calamari and 2 Pork Solomillos (Tenderloins) cooked "Al Punto" or "Medium" for mains. The Calamari arrived within 2 minutes. After 10 minutes, I enquired about the pork dishes and they then arrived almost immediately. I cut into mine and found it was completely raw in the middle. The other one was the same - see photo. I politely asked for them to be refired. They came back within a few minutes. Mine was better but my daughter's was still raw. It was sent back again and returned the same. I then said that she didn't want to risk eating it and sent it back. The waitress was very apologetic and brought the bill. I asked her if they wanted to make an allowance on the bill for the raw pork? They deducted 5 euros from a 100 euros bill. At that point the cook and owner came out of the kitchen, brandishing the raw pork dish, and started berating my daughter. We left and will not be going back. There are many lovely restaurants in the area - this is not...

We had the most delicious mussels and paella here! Everything was so full of flavour, from the juice green olives and mussels in sauce as starter to the main dish of paella accompanied by delicious sangria. The Bolognaise sauce of our daughters pasta dish even exceeded our expectations. I could also highly recommend the coffee panna cotta dessert. We are traveling through the country, but eventhough the restaurant isn't on our route back, we would be happy to drive a few extra miles to eat...

5 étoiles… tombées du ciel, percutées par la réalité Si vous cherchez une expérience culinaire inoubliable – au sens où votre estomac s’en souviendra pendant trois jours – foncez chez No Stress ! Ce n’est pas un restaurant, c’est une épreuve d’endurance digestive.

Les plats ? Une symphonie de sel, une explosion de textures douteuses, et un festival d’arômes que même votre chien hésiterait à renifler. J’ai commandé un risotto… j’ai reçu ce qui semblait être du riz rescapé d’un naufrage. La viande ? Plus caoutchouteuse qu’un pneu de tracteur. Le dessert ? Un flan au goût de frigo.

L’eau ? Tiède. Le vin ? J’ai demandé un rouge corsé, ils m’ont fièrement servi un rosé fluo, à mi-chemin entre un sirop pour la toux et une punition.

Et en prime ? une belle diarrhée carabinée en guise de digestif, accompagnée de crampes stomacales pour bien rythmer la nuit. Si vous aimez les sensations fortes, oubliez les montagnes russes : testez les toilettes de No Stress à 3h du matin.

en résumé une équipe en cuisine qui semble jouer à Top Chef à l’aveugle, un service désorienté mais sûr de lui, et un chef visiblement en plein divorce avec la gastronomie.

Allez-y si vous voulez perdre foi en la restauration, ou si vous avez un ex à punir avec un bon cadeau.

PS : Le savon est le crachat...
