I don’t usually order clams or cockles because they’re often just okay, but I decided to give them a try here.

Honestly, the best clams ever! If you like clams and you’re at this restaurant, just order them—you won’t regret it.

I also had the pork belly (torreznos), and what a wonderful dish! The crispiest pork crackling with the most tender meat. I have no idea how they make their food this good, but they do.

I also tried the mini Angus burger, and it was just as delicious!

The only small critique I have is the presentation. I understand that the burger is meant to be a small snack and that you should probably order a few, but I think the dish could have looked more complete with just a few French fries (like 4 ! ) and a touch of parsley as garnish. That little addition would have tied everything together perfectly and kept the plate from looking too bare. And even if you ordered 4 , this addition would’ve still be...

Came on a Monday around 7:30pm. Tried ordering gazpacho but the kitchen wasn’t “ready”. The waitress told us that they just opened at 7pm hence they didnt prep the kitchen. We wanted some seafood, but they didn’t have it, because apparently fish market was closed. Finally, we tried getting jamon, but that was unavailable because they said it will take a while to prepare, we didn’t understand (we could see the leg and someone cutting the meat off). The only two things we got were fried peppers and tortilla. We got a slice of tortilla and it was really bad - cold, potatoes weren’t cooked. Overall, the place looks amazing, but there was no quality to it. We left hungry and disappointed. Really sad because we were looking forward to this place with the “great” reviews...

Those who only speak English, don't go there. Also the food was awful. We got one of the waitresses that didn't speak English at all. We could not communicate her what we want. So she brought the food that we didn't order, just asked her about. And throughout all night she was still serving us while there was a waitress who spoke English. We got fried prawns that were undercooked, they were sorry about that and gave us another dish of prawns. Out of respect we tried to eat it, but the dish was salty as hell. Mussels were also salty, the tortilla with truffles was disgusting. Even the Aperol spritz were tasteless. Don't go there. There are plenty places where you can...
