Fantastic experience: A very welcoming and warm staff in a very characteristic setting, the restaurant is located in a somewhat hidden alley. We shared an excellent paella with black rice and at the end of the meal a local digestive with very sweet herbs. We will definitely go back and if you are in Cadaques I highly recommend going there :)

Fantastic experience: Undoubtedly a brutal experience, my partner and a great friend were there yesterday, because he had already recommended it to me, I give it 5 stars because it was a very beautiful evening, in short I ask myself for Entrecote with really exquisite vegetables, the meat totally tender and fat-free, and my partner and great friend asked for Suquet and it was wonderful that taste and touch and on the part of the host he took great care of us. I totally RECOMMEND it !! We will return for the Fidewua jjjj

Fantastic experience: An exquisite attention, as well as the quality of the dishes. We ordered a salad, some spicy clams (off the menu) and a fresh sea bream that was spectacular (the garnish was grilled vegetables, and they gave us a little more when they said we would share it). I recommend it, and we will be back!

Fantastic experience: Super special attention! We have eaten the Paella with black rice, it is something that you have to try in life, fresh and with a spectacular flavor! The ceviche is a dream, although spicy but it is worth trying. Desserts don't even say ! We recommend them 100% better to go with your service !!

Fantastic experience: Lovely restaurant - real fresh and good food with an excellent service. We absolutely enjoyed the dinner and will repeat this joyful experience. - Next time we will directly park at the public parking and walk the last meters through that lovely town.

Luis SL 03/05/2022

Fantastic experience: Local located between the streets of Cadaqués. The interior has a lot of charm, 7 friends went with a reservation, they attended us in a spectacular way, both the waiter and the owner, who did at all times because we enjoyed the food. It is important to highlight the passionate way in which the dishes were explained to you, which is difficult to see today in a restaurant. The 5-star food without any doubt, we ordered both fish and meat (monkfish, sea bass, sirloin), in addition to the ceviche and scallops (with a lot of flavor). He recommended the sirloin with foie and fig, and I haven't eaten such tender and flavorful meat in a long time. To repeat without any doubt, at a price of 40E per head

Ciro G. Alvarez 03/05/2022

Fantastic experience: Restaurant in the center of Cadaqués with terrace. Reservation essential. Simple cuisine with dinner products, very well prepared. Everything we tried tasted great. Cellar perhaps a little scarce. Lovely staff. Moderate prices. Very highly recommended.

Amanda Carroll 03/05/2022

Fantastic experience: We walked by this restaurant while walking along the streets and made a reservation an hour beforehand. We ordered ceviche, which was part of the daily menu, and enjoyed it very much. The seafood paella for the main dish was excellent - one of the best we’ve tasted. The service was great and the waiter was very friendly. We would come back on another trip to Cadaqués.

Fantastic experience: Small cozy restaurant, from the moment we called to reserve the treatment has been spectacular. As soon as we entered, they attended us immediately, they recommended a first course and the paella, which is incredible. And the different wines. I recommend 100% and we will repeat.

Raul F. 19/04/2022

Positive experience: Overall, it was okay. Simple but generous and rich salad. Generous paella and, without the best I have ever tasted, very good and full of shells and clams to stop a train (see photo). Very good sangria. The place is small and we were all quite tight, to the point of having to share a table with other people. Which does not seem very normal to me in a restaurant of about 40€ covered. I didn't like that the waiter (and owner, I think) didn't wear a mask. Even if it were allowed, I consider it a serious irresponsibility on the part of a professional who is taking care of people all day long.

Fantastic experience: Don't hesitate to go 2 minutes away from the seaside and its tourist restaurants to get to La Sirena. The welcome is courteous, the service efficient, the owner friendly, the dishes and wines excellent. The mixed paella delighted us! Ps: the 80's playlist will have you dancing on your chair throughout the meal

Fantastic experience: Amazing paella negra!!!! We had a bad paella the day before in cadaques so we came to La Sirena to make up for it and WOW. So good, huge portion, super tasty. The owner was also so kind and accommodating, he was so pleased we enjoyed it and told us to come back next time we are in town, which we definitely will do! Highly recommend.

Marisa Gomez 10/12/2021

Positive experience: The food is not bad, although the seafood croquettes did not taste at all like seafood, the service was good, when we booked we were not warned that the menu is only served on the first floor and not reserved. On the second floor you can only order from the menu. They told us about it as if we had to know. I think they should let you know when you make a reservation. We were caught already seated upstairs and had no choice but to order from the menu.

Fantastic experience: Best paella ever had!! Waiter was nice, atmosphere was best and can’t wait to go back

Caro 31/10/2021

Positive experience: Most of the time we had always been located on the terrace or on the first floor, but this time we were located on the top floor and I was really surprised since it is very different, more formal and with a more classic and sober decoration as well as the cutlery and crockery. While taking the order we were given an exquisite pate accompanied by small toasts of bread, the restaurant staff takes more time to listen to their customers and the service is very good. The price of the dishes is something else (more expensive) at an average of 20€ and the wine list has nothing to do (they are very good wines) since the menu is different, the bathrooms are clean and pleasant to use.

Jose Velez garcia 06/10/2021

Positive experience: I have been there many times in my youth, when I was in another place, near Sol, every time I go to Madrid I go back. Fast and professional service. This time I went for dinner with my wife and we were on the top floor and we were served by an excellent waiter, José (I imagine Pepe for those close to him) showing his professionalism after more than forty years serving. Good quality and presentation of the dishes, although we missed half portions as some of them were overpriced.

Fantastic experience: This site is amazing, we had pictures of this place in our hotel and we decided to visit it. We were attended by a super friendly person who made good recommendations and attended us at all times for whatever we needed. The food was exquisite, the mussels were on point and the rack of lamb was soft and delicious. Therefore, they are good in both seafood and meat

Fantastic experience: Of category, the attention, the service, the food ... the place is small but cozy, quiet ... the quality food that is the most important thing in a restaurant, the attention ... another 10, attentive, helpful. .. As for the food, the good-sized and tasty razor clams (without a grain of sand), the very rich black rice too, served differently than how you can eat it in Valencia (server is Valenciano, from Puerto de Sagunto) but without detracting, I would repeat, that if the best ... dessert !!! Yougurt ice cream with cloves and tomato jam on a base of alfabrega oil, simply Exquisite, if you are in Cadaques and you don't know where to eat, come to La Sirena, ask for Iñaki and you will be right.

gilles hutzler 08/06/2020

Fantastic experience: Looking for the best paella in the industry, I came across this pearl. In the heart of the village of Cadaques, tourist place that could allow inaccuracy, this restaurant has chosen to serve a paella that combines tradition and elegance. The marinière is very close to a Catalan rice, perfectly cooked rice with complex flavors of seafood juices. The service is efficient and nice. And the Sirenes wine was perfect ... we will come back to enjoy the rest of the map.

Fantastic experience: So how to start after such a meal ...? Talking about the friendliness of the staff and the adorable, attentive, knowledgeable and knowledgeable waiter in his advice ... From the setting that is really typical of the fisherman's house of Cadaqués. The dishes... In the starter of the anchovies of the country on pan tom tomato just toasted ... A divine must. A monkfish and grilled vegetables extra fresh with perfect cooking. A paella ... The perfection ... Cooked to the order (20 minutes of waiting, pledge of quality) Rice cooked in a bottom of crustaceans ... Mussels, clams, prawns and fresh langoustines, cuttlefish cooked in ultra generous amount ... In short, if you have to taste only one paella in your life it's here! A delicious white wine at a sweet price. A delicious Catalan cream, inevitable too and perfect to finish. In short, take the trouble to leave the tourist catches of the sea to come to the Siren discover the real gastronomy of Cadaqués. Everything was perfect ... From reception to goodbye ... We'll be back ... sure. Price merit.

Fantastic experience: After visiting the beautiful Cadaques wandering through the streets we ended up in this cute restaurant. Marchel and Lorenz welcomed us and treated us like old friends, and then came the Antipasto Dinner with Bread and Anchovies and then Zuppa de Cadaques very good, rich in fresh fish and so abundant that it would have been enough for four people; so good that I went to hug Jorge the chef. Also amazed by the dessert and the honest bill for what we ate. Thanks again to Inali Jorge Marchel and Lorenz.

Fantastic experience: We had a good time with a large bib with sea bream, very practical to avoid stains. The bill is a little salty, but this restaurant is very pleasant at the end of its little alley. Far from the tourists because there is only the siren looking at the ground of the lane you will understand the name of the restaurant. We ate outside on their small, very intimate 12-seat terrace. I recommend.

The steak "La Sirena" was one of the best steaks I have ever had. My in-laws had an off menu fish plate that blew their minds. They said it was the best fish they have ever had. Definitely a must for dinner if you are in the Costa Brava area.

Fantastic experience: We went on Sunday June 26, 2016. After walking around the town (Beautiful), we arrived at the Restaurant. The site is a beautiful little street, in the style of the place. A cozy place, with a nice decoration, but the important thing: Both the treatment, which was excellent, and the food (We ordered a Paella Marinera for two), are a real pleasure! Paella Marinera is amazing. Price and quality more than recommended. We can only say that, without a doubt, we will return !!!

In fact, you can dispense with the tickets and ask directly for a dish, which is plenty. Wonderful, highly recommended.
