    Extremely nice place. All types of fish were excellent, but consider that the pricing is a bit high.

    Too noisy. One big table was making a lot of noise and making the experience very bad for the rest of people.

    I usually come here and I always appreciate everything. It's also safe for its gluten-free options (as a celiac person myself). Portions are aboundant and everything is super deliciojs. Absolutely recommend!

    Fish restaurant, good food. We had one Vegetarian with us. They only have a Vegetarian salad on the menu. After asking , they could make a nice sandwich as well. The old waitress is not very friendly, no flexibility. The other waiters were very friendly.

    The fish was good quality and absolutely delicious. But most of it, we appreciatted the time the server took to explain the dishes and answer all our questions about local fish vs imported fish and seafood on the menu. The halibut stew was exceptional, and so was the fried cod. The eel soup was also a nice and tasty discovery, just as the entire meal. Thank you.

    The food was absolutely outstanding! The eel melted in your mouth and the fish was so fresh, moist and tasty. The vegetables served alongside the fish dishes were unusual and supdrb. We highly recommend this restaurant and if our travels ever bring us back to the Netherlands, we will surely come back here!

    It was wonderful: the food (do try the smoked eal!), the place and how nice the staff was. The owner even spoke (perfect) Spanish with us. Totally recommendable!

    The fish is top quality. The waiters very nice and helpful. I had a list of things I could eat because of I tolerances and they did a delicious meal for me. I asked for fresh fruit as dessert, they brought a bowl of fruits with gember syrup that was delicious.

    The only thing that can be disturbing is the smell of of smoked fish. But if you go to a restaurant that is known to smoked eel you know what to expect
