Heel goed gegeten en heel asrdige bediening. Prijzen herl schappelijk. Belangtijker: heb hier gefrituurde vis gegeten en de oliesmaak kwam me niet uren erna naar boven maw goed frituurvet! Paella mixta beslist aanbevolen.

Malgré une terrasse très sale et un service parfois un peu long l'endroit reste agréable. Nous y sommes venus tous les matins pendant 15 jours pour y prendre notre petit déjeuner. Faut juste pas être pressé

Un arroz buenísimo!!! El servicio es correcto, se nota la diferencia del personal de verano pero es aceptable. Tiene opción de menú para niños yi hija encantada. El restaurante está en frente de la playa aunque hay una carretera entre restaurante y playa. Tiene una terraza y el interior es muy amplio. Lo recomiendo.
