"Restaurante con decoración bonita y agradable donde se come bien. El trato del personal es totalmente correcto y cercano que hace más gustosa la comida. De los que comimos, los calamares de 10, las croquetas de 6, los arroces de 9,75 los dos, y los postres de 9."

"Comimos en la zona de bar, donde tienen habilitadas 2 o 3 mesas. La comida estaba bien elaborada y era abundante en cuanto a las raciones. El rape quizás un poco seco, pero por lo demás todo correcto. Precio acorde a un pueblo costero frente al puerto (un poco más elevado de lo que merece). Sin duda es un lugar recomendable"
