Good country cuisine, very good service, fast and friendly. It is well known for its rice dishes, but the sea and mountain dishes with pork feet that they offer, very typical of the Empordà, are unbeatable.

We went with friends and enjoyed a lobster rice and grilled monkfish, both dishes were very good! The house wine very correct and good price. We paid about € 33 per head with first-class picapica, second-rate casserole rice, dessert and coffee. The attention we received from the room team no complaints! Very nice. I had known him for a long time but many years without going. We will be back for sure!

It’s a restaurant that not only makes meals, makes you happier, takes care of you and makes you feel at home. With real coastal food, and with organic meat and vegetables, PRODUCT OF THE LAND. A pleasure to be able to continue going there every time we go up from Barcelona. Thank you Joan and company for always treating us so well!

Catalan cuisine restaurant, the food is homemade and they have a variety of different dishes, both meat, fish and gold starters. We have gone on a Sunday and you can see the stress involved, but although they take a little while to serve you, I consider that it is normal, in addition you are having a mouth for the next dish ... As the saying goes ... The good thing is waiting !! Delicious food and very friendly and attentive treatment, I recommend you go!

Fantastic experience: Visited 29th of June 2016. What a fantastic place! We went with our friends Steve & Anita who knew the restaurant . The service was first class and the staff were very attentive. The food! I thought I wasn't keen on seafood but would give it a try. Wow, the tapas were superb, as was the merluza that Kim ordered. All washed down with a few bottles of Cava, excellent!
Fantastic experience: We came in the early season, we almost the only ones with a local family having a birthday party. Was a great time. Great selection of wines.
