8.5/10This spot offers food a couple of notches above average, which surprised us because at first glance this looked like a cavernous, tourist-oriented place, however the dishes are better than that. Not a "destination" restaurant but a good choice in an area that doesn't offer much beyond the ordinary. Good service. Be aware, there are TWO restaurants with this same name, right next to each other, one at number 12 and one at number 10. (We walked into number 10 and after a couple of minutes during which they couldn't find our reservation, they directed us next door.)

5.5/10Food is okay. Bit pricey. Service is average. It’s a bit commercial, not very authentic. Furthermore, the menu sometimes doesn’t tell you the correct ingredients.

8/10The food was excellent but the service left something to be desired, perhaps because it was a holiday and the restaurant was quite full.

10/10Based on the outside of the restaurant and the initial entry, my expectations were pretty low. However, once I got seated in the back section for dining, this was immediately changed. The service was great and the food was excellent!

8.5/10
a nice restaurant that is very centrally located and the prices are really reasonable. The service strives to ensure a pleasant stay. I give the food a 9 out of 10. really tasty, fresh and beautifully presented. location 8 out of 10. cozy, large and very central. Service 7 out of 10. before and during the meal, everything was great, very friendly and accommodating. But here you can tell that it is a tourist shop. As soon as you eat you are sent out. The bill is brought and since we were the last ones in the room, most of the lights were turned off. We had to down the rest of the wine in the dark.

9.5/10
The food was excellent we loved the appetizer/starter, the Bluefin tuna dish we both had was great as was the cheesecake and Sangria drinks. The only issue was we thought we were getting a 30% Fork discount when we booked it but there was no discount available for the 9:00 PM time we selected and this was explained and understood later. We had also been charged for two breads but only ate one but this was corrected.

I ordered the codfish, a tomato salad, lemon sorbet and sparkling water and the bill was $48 euro. The tomato salad was delicious. Ripe tomatoes and onions in a vinaigrette with chili flakes was amazing. The cod was perfectly cooked and tender. The lemon sorbet was gross. It was a melted slush that arrived in a glass with a straw. There was not enough sweetness to counter the citrus and it was like eating a raw lemon. When I told the server, she replied, “sorry you don’t like it,” and walked away. I was clear with her. That dish had not been made correctly. It was a good meal. I am glad I went. Mistakes happen.
Mercado de la Reina 12 • Owner
Thank you for visiting our restaurant, we are glad you enjoyed the gastronomy and we are sorry if the lemon sorbet was not to your liking. Please note that our team is always available to attend or modify anything during the service so that you can enjoy your experience to the fullest. Best regards and see you soon Kimo

8.5/10food is very good. oxtail ravioli is the best. also grilled octupus. only downside was initial service. we were sitting there for 20mins nobody bothered to serve us. then I had to stand up from my seat and find a waiter, who guided me to another, who guided me to another, who then finally got us a waiter! really? otherwise once the waiter was assigned all went well. but... guys get ur waiters controlled to serve ur customer.!
