    We ordered prawn Phil Phil started , they never arrived . Long wsot for mains after appetisers . Our guests had fish really poor , bony small portion of sea bass and undercooked cod . My husband and I had steak not cooked to how we ordered so sent it back . Wasn’t a great overall experience . Staff were pleasant but food very under par ! Roasted veg tasteless no seasonings. Very disappointing .

    The waiter was very attentive. In my booking request I'd asked for a comfy seat as I was suffering with back pain. After seating us at our table, he asked if my chair was suitable. He took time to explain a couple of dishes which were unfamiliar to us. The food was beautifully cooked and well presented. We left full and happy.

    Excellent restaurant specializing in steak. The solomillo cooked to perfection and the chips with skins were very good. One of the stand out items was the bread with garlic mayonnaise - amazing

    When we arrived the head waiter gave us a warm welcome, he was very friendly and attentive throughout. The food on the other hand was less impressive. We had bread & olive oil (bread was nice) followed by a goats salad (nothing too exciting), I had lamb chops with chips and my hubby had sea bass with potatoes. The lamb chops were very fatty and tasted bland. My hubby’s fish was tastier but the potatoes were boring. We just had two espressos to follow. The service was very good and the waiter was very warm and welcoming but unfortunately we felt that the food was unimaginative and bland,

    Ok. Most expensive place we ate at during our stay in Alicante. (Appreciate it was steak for 4). For 4 people we were served a very small side dish of chips were really insufficient so we had to order more.

    Wonderful staff and fantastic food! The Jamón was cut off the bone right in front of us. It was so good! There was a large party near us, that required a lot is the staff’s attention, however, the service they provided us was not affected. Wonderful meal and a great evening!

    Very poor experience. We ordered the rib eye on the bone at approx €70 for two persons. When it arrived it wasn’t cooked as requested ( medium) it was extremely rare . In addition to that the sliced up meat didn’t appear to match the bone that it supposedly came off and there was a pile of cold , white lumps of chopped up fat. We eat ribeye regularly so we know it’s a fatty steak which we don’t mind but I have no idea why the fat was removed from the meat, chopped up and served in a pile. Apart from the presentation being pretty poor and the steak not being cooked as requested we attempted to eat it but it was chewy, tough and tasteless so we called the waitress over who had a really bad attitude and was extremely cross that we were complaining. She did eventually take it away and stormed off in a mood , no apologies at all and totally ignored us after that. In addition to that the salad was extremely underwhelming and the fries were overcooked and dried up. A very poor experience!

    The wait staff was lovely, but the food was lacking seasoning and flavor. The lamb chops were over cooked and tough, the sea bass was full of bones and lacking any flavor. Too much cheese i. the salad, never thought I would say that about cheese!

    A superb experience of high quality food and service. Jesus's and the team made our family dinner and celebration extremely memorable for all the right reasons. Very reasonable price too. We'll definitely return.

    Service was great, menu was good surroundings were good. My steak was OK, but had gristle throughout it, and my wife's potatoes were very hard and not cooked through.

    We have ordered the Ribeye for two, as we have been there before and it was excellent. This time the cut was mostly non-chewable cartilage, hardly satisfactory. The fish was okay, served with a splash of vegetables so few, that it's more garnish, than a side. Wine was good, so we enjoyed that with bread very much before the food came. I hope this is a one–off, as it would be unfortunate to lose one my favorite places to eat in Alicante to a degradation in service and quality of food.

    We have been eating tapas and paella for weeks and wanted some beef. The rib eye here is the best I have had since visiting Argentina. Our waiter was wonderful and the rest of the food outstanding as well.
