I am celiac and write a gluten free travel blog and saw this pop up on a number of gluten free sites, but I was not overly impressed even though it had received good reviews. Maybe this was an off day? Both English and Spanish menus were available and the the waitress did speak English. The menus listed gluten free options on it. We did have to ask them to adjust it for us which they were able to do easily. 2 of us had to be gluten free and 2 vegetarian - they were able to accomodate. They had a lunch menú del día (menu of the day), a common way that lunch is served. We ordered the verduras crema (vegetables with cream), filete de rosada empanada (breaded fish), my sidekick had the cerdo con whiskey y patatas (pork with whiskey and potatoes (fries)).
Everyone’s food (gluten free or full of gluten) was just ok. I thought I would be excited to get fried fish, it wasn’t bad, it just only came with a plain iceberg lettuce salad. We were asked if we wanted gluten free bread, and it came heated up in a pre-packaged bag. It was actually pretty good, but we were charged for it. Had I known about the cost, I just could have done without. For dessert we had ice cream.
I understand accommodating for these things isn't the easiest, but I did have amazing gluten free food all over...
Read moreThe guy that runs the place is rude as hell and acted coked out. The other staff are friendly. It was our server's first day as a waitress and she did alright. Overpriced, even considering the location. The food was fine enough, but not great. They left an empty bottle on our table for the entire meal.
The menu says everything is gluten free, yet there is regular bread next to gluten free bread on the same "100% no gluten" menu. I would not be surprised at all if it's largely a marketing ploy, and I would not trust the kitchen to prepare gluten-free apart from gluten properly.
Tourist restaurant, plain and simple. You can find better within a 2 minute walk in any direction. Avoid.
edit- Oh yeah, and one of our plates wasn't clean. We wiped it off with a napkin. We are not picky people, but if you are, and eat here, don't look closely at your glass or plate if you want to...
Read moreEXTREMELY RUDE! After asking if we could sit to have a drink as we are aware that staff get very edgy if you want a table at lunch just to have a drink and being told it was okay - hey, maybe the guy didn’t hear us (hmmm) - but being told” I am going to kick you off the table when other customers turn up” and “you’ve spent more on a pair of sunglasses than you have here” and basic rudeness that wasn’t required, I would spend your money somewhere else. Yep. They succeeded in turfing us out quickly. They should be clearer that they are not interested in people who want drinks only.
Terrible! Preguntamos si podíamos sentarnos para tomar una copa (sabemos que a la hora de comer puede ser complicado) y dijeron que sí. Una actitud y comentarios que no hacían falta para echarnos de la mesa por no comer ahí. Mejor lo digan mas claramente antes de tratar a clientes con...
