Fantastic experience: Perhaps the most skillful grilling of squid in recent history, sampled over 2 decades--even after the passing of its original proprietor Fremin.

Courel Jean Luc 03/05/2022

Joaquim Roque Bohigas 03/05/2022

Fantastic experience: The best place to eat fish of the day! There is no letter, the waiter sings it out loud, but you're always right. High price because the raw material they work with is of the highest quality, and you already know the price of wild fish and seafood! Always looking forward to repeating!
Translated from Spanish

Vlada Martikova 03/05/2022

Fantastic experience: It is not the first time we come, but this time absolutely all the dishes were fantastic! I recommend this restaurant to all lovers of fish and especially seafood. The food is VERY fresh and of quality, the atmosphere is pleasant and familiar. You have to keep in mind- it is NOT cheap and they do not have a letter, they tell you what they have brought to them the same day from memory and the total price you will see at the end in the account. Calculate at least € 60 per head. There is only fish and seafood (without garnish), salad, dessert. You have to book in advance. Would improve the desserts. It is without a doubt one of the best !!

It's been years since I've been living far away, but the experience has been fantastic. Friendliness and friendliness of the staff and the pleasant place as always. One of the best restaurants in Palamós yes. place to doubt Returning is an obligation.

Roberto CG 19/03/2022

Positive experience: Without sorrow or glory. The first thing we had warned that we were going with two baby carriages and when we arrived they told us that they did not fit. The service has been very slow, a lot of waiting between courses and serving tables that have arrived later than we did before. The food was not bad although some things burned (brisket and beans). Value for money, 48€ per person l, expensive. I don't recommend it nor would I return.

Fantastic experience: This is by far the best seafoodplace in spain. Very authentic interior, serious staff, and masters in the kitchen. I normally eat at sa marinada(st feliu)or la taverna del mar(s'agaro) but this place is another dimension. Way much better food. Not to mention very good price! They should have a michelin star!

Alex ER 04/09/2021

Fantastic experience: I will put a 5/5 for the super product they have but they are in danger of becoming a 4 or 3 star site ... Let me explain, they continue to do their whole life in a magnificent way but they have raised prices and they cannot charge a glass of Glenrothers at € 15 (I think it was more than 15…) Or a gin and tonic at € 14… They are wrong with these things. Also, you cannot put 10 product and put super frozen bread ... They must take care of these details or they are in danger of people not coming back ... We are lifelong customers and next time we will think twice about whether to go or not ...
