We were very disappointed that we couldn’t order multiple rice dishes for the table. We were told they can only cook one type of rice dishes per table. It seemed odd to us.

We came in at 13 o’clock and had a delicious lunch. Humus with Pistachio and Basil was great, as well as Fideuá. Cheese Cake and French Toast as deserts were to die for … The service was great.

Last time I was there (about three years ago) I was blown away by the food and the attentive service, easily five stars then. This time I wasn't quite so impressed, even if it was still very good. The meny was a bit different, and not always for the better. The Rodaballo was a bit too mild/bland, but the croquetas are still some of the best in Spain. So, very good, but not quite perfect this time.

The Arroz, the friendly staff and the great location make this an almost 100% fantastic experience. The only, very little improvement area is the background music, 80/90:s pophits and power ballads do not make it for me 😊

Amazing food! The dishes were innovative, good quality and beautifully presented with a smile. The bar has an ambient atmosphere and we will definitely visit again. It is on the pricey side but well worth it.

Very good food, even delicious but not enough petoncles on our rice (only 2/person) for 24€! And two gambas for 26€ with anything else! So expensive for what it is, even if the food was very good!

The food was very good , but although I don't eat a lot, the portions were so small that you could eat your plate in 3 bites. Comparing these portions to the price you pay, you would expect more. The service wasn't in line with the image of the restaurant neither . Instagram worthy yes - but if you are looking for a real restaurant experience, I would not recommend it.
