Fantastic experience: Very good food; quiet place, friendly staff, fast service. It's appreciated that you make the rice with homemade sofrito. Without a doubt, to incorporate it into the restaurant agenda to revisit. Thank you for the work you do.

Xevi Fernandez 02/05/2022

Fantastic experience: They recommended this restaurant to us in the port of l’Escala and we went there. We were welcomed by the very friendly and attentive owner. After some mussels to snack on, we began to look at the menu more carefully, an extensive menu with starters, fish, rice and meat. We opted for fish because we were in the port. Everything was great and a correct amount. Let's enjoy exceptional treatment from the attentive and friendly workers. We will simply go back and recommend it! Better to book because it is always full, it will be for something

Positive experience: Good elaboration. Fish from the fish market, very tasty and well-made rice dishes.

Gerard Martínez 18/04/2022

Positive experience: Although this is definitely a recommended place, we didn't have the best experience ever. Traditional seafood restaurant atmosphere, a little quieter as it is secluded in the harbor. The food is all very good, although for example the beef steak could have been a bit bigger. They brought us an unfinished duck breast, which even bled as if they had just killed it, which they changed us without problem when we requested it. Then there is some detail that can be improved, such as ordering a glass of wine and not being asked which one; that it comes quite cold (red), or that they bring it directly to you without serving it looking at the bottle.

Paula N 24/08/2021

Positive experience: Correct restaurant, with the right price. It doesn't stand out for anything in particular. The paella was good, without being the best I've ever eaten. The waiting time has been a little too long. I don't like restaurants charging me for bread when I haven't ordered it (that detail makes it subtract a star)

Fantastic experience: The food is excellent and the service impeccable. What denotes a little is the reception a little cold at the start and a little smile (even with the masks) of the waiters and waitresses. In short I recommend because it is very well prepared and very well presented. Scanner card and it is a very good idea with the current sanitary conditions. Very nice terrace.

Atis Tirma 02/06/2020

Fantastic experience: Good table service, fast and friendly. While we waited for the brothy black rice, we ordered croquettes and a tuna tartare, of great quality both dishes. Very good rice, grain at its point; Good taste, recommended! Theme price, the normal for this type of restaurant eating with menu. Note: in L 'Escala in August or there is no menu or they are at 18e for mussels and little else. If they want cheap to go to a pizzeria, they will eat for 10e the pizza plus drink. If you want to eat quality and good atmosphere this restaurant is an example.
