Comment by Bravissima about Monterrey:

Monterrey is an exceptional restaurant located in the beautiful Costa Brava, specifically at platja 2, CP 17489. Visitors have highlighted its cozy atmosphere, professional service, and high-quality culinary offerings. Here are some of the most appreciated aspects:

  • Delicious food: Many customers have praised the quality of the dishes, especially the rice and fresh fish. The paella and seafood starters come highly recommended.
  • Excellent service: The staff is described as friendly, attentive, and professional, which enhances the dining experience.
  • Prime location: Positioned right by the sea, diners can enjoy stunning views while savoring their meals.

JOSE LUIS Persam 02/05/2022

Fantastic experience: I insist that there are places that deserve to be set apart as special. Careful place, mainly on the plate, as in the professionalism of the room service. Very important, when you are facing an extraordinary fish, and the neighbor at the next table is there. with a pizza (very good looking by the way), keeping the care of that moment of delight that some of us look for and value, for an environment full of foreign tourists, with debatable tastes. However do not pretend bargains, average price between 45-55 eur (2 dishes + dessert + drinks) very well justified !!

MAG 01/08/2021

Fantastic experience: First visit to this establishment, as those of you who follow my publications already know, I am clear and serious in my experiences and I have to say that this restaurant is perhaps one of the three best that I have been able to visit. In the first place, being a seasonal establishment, I was predisposed to think that the quality, price and service would not be correct, but I quickly realized that I was wrong. Let's go by steps 1st, very correct service, prepared and very attentive staff, impeccable and extremely clean uniforms, exquisite and polite treatment, a mixture of maturity and youth is noted, but knowledge of hospitality service is clearly seen, I would dare to say that There are qualified personnel in their training, they are magnificent professionals. 2nd, the place, decoration according to the place, genuine coastal area of ​​the Costa Brava, such as port de la selva, with blue colors like the sea and contrasts in pastel colors of wood recovered from the Mediterranean (it looks good, but you can see that It is prefabricated material, but I repeat, it looks good), tables, chairs and other furniture without being luxurious, they give a good feeling because they are well assembled and everything in perfect condition, very good in general. 3rd, the menu is very correct and superior for a seasonal local, many fresh products and a variety of different dishes, there is meat, pasta, seafood and fish, I obviously recommend going to this fishing village to try fresh fish from its market It will enrich the visit more to enjoy fresh products of natural origin from the sea than to be watching from the terrace of this place 4th, prices, the prices are correct for what they put on the plate and we must not forget that the quality must be reasonably priced, as is the case with this establishment. General summary. It is highly recommended to visit this establishment, you want to eat seafood, fish, something that perhaps is out of the traditional diet, sit on its terrace and enjoy its pink and white wines (I do not comment on the wines because I do not drink alcohol ), breathe the sea air, relax and eat a seafood platter with lobster, lobster, prawns, mussels, battlements, breathe deeply and enjoy, all this I tell you this establishment, savor a few moments without having to go to Greece or any another idyllic destination, here you can have those unforgettable moments.

Fantastic experience: Monterrey has, in addition to the dining room, an ideal terrace for summer, facing the sea with rich seafood cuisine. Eating in it located in the center of Port de la Selva is a delight. The difficult thing is to choose from the wide range of good seafood cuisine on the menu. Rice, fish and seafood are all tempting. During our visit, we sampled the delicious anchovies from L'Escala, fry from Port fish, clams with seafood, good Iberian ham, a rich sea bass with salt and an excellent grilled turbot with vegetables. For desserts, the chocolate milkshake with cream. Attentive service Highly recommended
