9/10My husband and I loved the restaurant. The "Pica-Pica" appetizer was delicious. it was highly recommended for 2 people to enjoy it before your main dishes. The services were fantastic and we both felt welcome.

7/10Had heard so much about this restaurant’s paella, but found it to be far too salty and overcooked. Having had paella is many places around the world, I’d look elsewhere for your paella experience in Barcelona, unless the beachfront atmosphere and good service is enough for you.

9/10very friendly and positive team: first line table provided, dishes recommended. although the food was not in a format we used to (grilled plate should be only grilled), we still enjoyed sangria and the dishes. lobster was especially great!

5/10The paella was just okay. We ordered it for three, and it came with only two prawns and 5 mussels. That is just cheap! Not a lot of meat or seafood in this Surf-n-Turf. SALTY. Dessert good though!

9/10Restaurant was right on the beach. Great ambiance. Paella was not the best I have had but it was solid. The desserts and Cava sangria on point!

3.5/10I'm visiting this place at least twice a year for the last 7 years, and the last visit was probably the last one. Food was good, but nothing special, but the level of service was totally unacceptable. The host talking by the phone with someone taking the reservation, and we are waiting 3 minutes. No one was eager to take the order from.us, although they had plenty of time to reset tables with more than 50% tables empty. They forgot about second dishes. Zero smile and almost none hospitality. It was quite cold and windy outside, so the temperature inside was also low, and no blankets were provided, so kids had to seat with the jackets on. It was a really bad experience, and it wasn't worth at all it's price.

9.5/10Fantastic first meal in Barcelona! Loved our paella and our starter, fried octopus ceviche was unexpectedly incredible! Had a great and very reasonable bottle of wine which was recommended by our waiter which was perfect. Would go back if we had more time. Clearly a popular place as they would not take walk ins and were full with reservations.

4.5/10Paella was terribile, too salty and too cooked. Dry and almost bruised,. The place had no atmosphere at all. A trap for tourists.

7.5/10Atmosphere and waiters were really nice. The paella was ok, expected more for the price. A lot of rice, not much seafood in it. Taste was all right, had better ones before.
