CONCHI BAEZ MELERO
Una experiencia fantástica. Éramos un grupo de 15 personas y nos atendieron con una amabilidad increíble. Tanto el chico como la chica que nos sirvieron fueron encantadores. El menú estaba riquísimo, el espacio es de 10 y, para rematar, nos recomendaron un lugar de baño en el río que fue espectacular. Sin duda, cuando volvamos a la zona repetiremos.
Luisa Martinez
Super recomendable, servicio genial y muchas opciones sin gluten para celíacos. Hemos venido varios días que nos hemos alejado por la zona.

Claudio Creis Cavero
Sitio tranquilo con sabores originales. Fuera corre el viento y se está muy agusto. El camarero Holandés muy simpático y camarera Julieta muy educada.

Would definitely recommend to a friend.
marieke Linders
Heel fijn om in dit restaurant te eten. In tegenstelling tot veel Spaanse restaurants, heb ik op deze plek, als vegetarisch/ vegan georiënteerde bezoeker ook veel te kiezen. Heerlijk! Een plek waar duurzaamheid, gezelligheid en kwaliteit mooi samen komen. Super aanrader.
