Great food, but terrible service. The runners try their best, but the servers don’t make the cut. Everyone seems to be in a rush, lack of dishes explanations. I ended getting up from my table and refilling our wine .. too many issues regarding the service. Kudos to the kitchen tho.

The restaurant has a nice covered terrace in the front. Food is good, service is sufficiently quick, but English is not easy.

Our second time back, came for the first time a week ago and fell in love so came back again tonight. The Albariño is delicious as were the scallops starter. Highly enjoyed the tomato and anchovies as well. The mariscos paella is a must have and so is the tiramisu. Okay so basically it’s all amazing!

Very disappointing. High food cost with poor quality. Ordered sangria and was mostly sprite, sent it back but still charged. For dinner order seafood paella, pretty much all rice. Seemed like a tourist place that you wouldn’t want to repeat

Upon recommendation of friends my partner and I enjoyed some of the best seafood here on passage to Madrid. Excellent, and surprisingly quiet location in Madrid's centre.

Was recommended this place by my neighbour and we were not disappointed. Their seafood is marvelous, plenty of good wines to choose from and the ambience if you keep on walking deeper into the restaurant is very cozy and slightly quieter. Friendly and attentive staff. We will return for sure!

Excellent shellfish and fish, good wine menu and the waiters are good at recommending. Slightly pricey, but worth forking out. Thoroughly enjoyed it

On a Sunday night, dinner open for 2030 , however, they are open for drinks and tapas since evening. I will say food is good. They have English menu but no English speaking staff, which means you find a plaCe where local goes.
