Very friendly and cordial treatment. Very professional and attentive service. They know what they do. For the type of food chosen, everything is very correct. We liked the patatas bravas, and especially the fried anchovies and fried eggs with black truffle and potato chips. The table service was impeccable and price commensurate and adequate with what we ate. The coffee, which many restaurants do not give importance to, was spectacular… short, intense and very aromatic. In short, highly recommended, to eat with friends. (we ate inside) outside it was very hot. By the way, everything and that we arrived around 16:15, they treated us like a fable. Great place in Roses for lunch and of course dinner.

We have eaten a tomato salad with tuna and tuna tataki, the good salad and the delicious and fresh tataki, I recommend it if you like tataki, fast and attentive service. Good value for money, you pay what you eat and the truth is that the tataki is fresh, nothing like other tatakis that I have eaten. Very well presented. The dessert is very good too, I will repeat.

Fantastic experience:
Superb discovery, typical tapas restaurants made with fresh products. A real good surprise despite a rating below 4 stars, lover of real good food do not trust the detractor who does not understand anything about catering, being myself in the game I can guarantee you that it is worth much more than the note average of 3.9. Would not change a thing .

Fantastic restaurant with homemade cuisine. The staff is very friendly. It's inside the village. It is not touristy but it is a place with modern decor and, at the same time, pleasant and cozy. Years ago, in our weekend at Roses we came here for dinner

a marvel for the taste buds ... a search in the excellent tapas. Of course, they have the classic tapas: tomato bread top, braised artichokes, squid ... but you will find different dishes like blackcurrant nuts cooked with black truffle, served on a bed of homemade potatoes ( a slaughter), the specialty of crumbled white sausage served with calamari ... their plate of cheese is perfect too. of course the prices are not average but normal, the products are fresh, and the food quality. the server is attentive and professional. the boss very friendly too.

Very good burrata salad with tomato and tuna belly.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience: As with many places on the Rosas, this restaurant doesn't try to entice you in with elaborate decor and enormous menus for tourists. No, the staff are highly competent and the food is very good. Being on the beach front, it is probably a little bit more expensive than similar restaurants in town.
Fantastic experience:
Fabulous food and unbeatable staff what happens that there are many people who do not know how to go to restaurants

The other best tapas bar in Rosas. Also good daily menus. Saturday night you have to book, even in winter, a month ago (January) I had to return after 3/4 of an hour because there was no room.
