We arrived by chance in this establishment and there what was our surprise as well at the visual level of the dishes as of the quality. Indeed at the price level we are on higher prices but you will not come back to the level of the proportions but also of the quality of the products. For dessert you can have the white chocolate coulant or the Ananas Malibu cup. Top welcome and fresh products. I recommend this establishment without worries.

It was by chance that we came to have lunch at the Can Rubén restaurant. 4 entrances to Choice, ditto in dishes, same for Desserts. Fresh, well-prepared and tasty ingredients. Chance would have it. Go ahead, for 18euros, satisfaction guaranteed The menu changes every day, it is better to book, the chef speaks French ............................................ It is November 23, 2021 Return to this restaurant to verify. Excellent moment when ALWAYS a single menu of rare excellence. Several starters, main courses, desserts. Perfectly prepared preparation and presentation, and, for a very reasonable price. You must reserve because this address is known, you just have to see the parking lot still full. Congratulations, we will be back this is a no-brainer.

Menu 13 euros. Amazing. First, a fine vegetable coca with smoked sardines and a delicious romesco sauce. As a second we ordered 2/3 rosellat de fideúa and they made us a whole paella with which we would have eaten three (even four) as it was a second course. For dessert choose the Catalan cream, I did not do it and I regretted it infinitely. Includes water or wine and bread. The perfect service. I hope to return.

Restaurant recently restored with pleasure and changes that have pleasantly surprised me. Presentation, quality and quantity in the work menu of 15 euros. Recommendable He is now taking the child for retirement of his parents, who was previously in the kitchen. They see the desire to provide a good service, but it must be that it is surrounded by the right staff. The structure of terraces that they have mounted is very attractive. I thought about making calçotades ... In the next visit I will value the letter May-19. I have visited the restaurant with a letter. Very satisfied dishes; Various salads first, after turbot, lamb carrots and tuna. Price with wine and desserts and coffee. It cost 37 people. Friendly and helpful owner.
