Gelateria, Ristorante, Pizzeria Vittoria — Restaurant in Níjar

This was one of the places we found open before 8pm to get something to eat. We sat down and ordered drinks. The waiter came back and we ordered food. We went to this place because they had pasta for my partners autistic son. We normally cater for his needs before ours. My partner and I both had chicken empanadas, which we thought came with fries.

When it arrived it was two pieces of chicken in breadcrumbs, not pastry. They looked and tasted dry and unappetising with old lettuce and tomato on the plate. They brought some bread, which was so hard it was inedible, so we left it. The macaroni cheese came about 5-10 minutes after we had our main. It looked nice, we both tasted it and was nice. That's what we should have had.

Normally we leave a tip, we didn't on this occasion. We both thought the service was slow and surly. The waiter walked past us, when we looked in his direction to get the bill.

Have given two stars only because the pasta dish was nice....

Me he sentido casi estafado. Las tarrinas de helados tienen muy poca capacidad, y eso que no son nada baratas. Si le das la vuelta a la tarrina, puedes ver que tiene mucho fondo vacío. Esto es casi un timo, porque estás pagando por mucha menos cantidad de helado que la que a priori podría suponerse al ver la tarrina. No volveré a comprar en este establecimiento.

Respecto al comentario que ha hecho otro cliente (sobre la práctica habitual de incluir "espacios vacíos" o "dobles fondos" en otro tipo de productos para "engañar" a los clientes), me gustaría aclarar lo siguiente: cuando compras una botella de vino, una bolsa de patatas o un helado en un supermercado, aunque haya espacios de aire ocultos (dobles fondos), la cantidad del producto que estás comprando está perfectamente indicado en la etiqueta (gramos, kilos, litros, ... ). En cambio, cuando compras una tarrina de helado en una heladería no se indica el volumen o cantidad de helado que estás comprando; es por ese motivo por el que considero que es casi una estafa el fondo vacío de las tarrinas de esta heladería de San José del Cabo de Gata. He estado en otras heladerías, en las que también las tarrinas tienen fondo vacío; en estas otras heladerías normalmente no rasuran la tarrina, como sí ocurre en la heladería de San José.

En conclusión, no recomiendo en modo alguno comprar helados en...

Stopped here on Tuesday 10/09 for a drink. I had two dogs with me and the location was perfect as it was away from the roads and had large trees so they both could stretch out & keep cool. A couple of drinks turned into a pizza which was great. The owner, Massimo had heard that my "Spanish" was more like Italian so he came outside for a chat. He offered me a grappa from his home town in Liguria and it was marvellous. Highly...
