Didier Garrigue 06/12/2021

Fantastic experience: Faced with competition from the large free buffets on the border, this restaurant, which serves the best calçots in the emporda, has invented an original formula of service at will. It offers a large choice of toast, grilled or baked vegetables (escalibade), different vegetarian or non-vegetarian pasta, wild boar, pig's trotters, escudella, suquet ... The dishes are presented in small quantities constantly renewed. Good choice of dessert.

Hajar el khlifi 30/03/2021

Fantastic experience: Cozy place, very clean, excellent service of the staff, ideal for couples or children. On weekdays the price is 15 euros, includes desserts and drinks. Aspects to improve, it would be good to put a sign in front of meals to know what it is or what it has. Little variety, although what is there is very good. Highly recommended.

Karen Heida - de Jong 08/06/2020

Fantastic experience: A buffet restaurant which is very popular with the locals. They are literally in the front row to be allowed to eat here. Prices range from 17.95 which the world to 25.50 on weekends. There is a nice playground for the children there.

Veronique Languedocq 08/06/2020

Fantastic experience: Very nice place, the staff, varied dishes for a very reasonable price. The setting is very nice. This is a free buffet but arranged as a traditional restaurant of a reasonable size, nothing to do with all these free buffets that look like canteens. I recommend it but remember to book for the weekend.A know, it's closed on Monday.

Animal de Bellota 08/06/2019

Fantastic experience: Finally a FREE QUALITY BUFFET !!!! Although the free buffet is associated with cheap and low quality food, I am very happy with the variety and quality of the food on offer, so much so that we stopped one day to try and returned the next day delighted to repeat. And they don't skimp on desserts. It is the first free buffet in which I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO EAT since there was a lot, and well. It has large and free parking. I think I have seen or read that they only open for lunch (not dinner) and CLOSE on MONDAYS. Very friendly and fast service.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular change from the last time I came, nothing to do with attention, quality or cleanliness, it has outdoor and indoor dining rooms, children's play area and free parking, in its day I said that I would not return, several years ago, today I have I came back from life by chance and I was delighted, surprised and amazed, great dishes and very varied, very good and well prepared, naturally I have only tried a few but that is good because I have no choice but to return, and very willingly , recommended and advisable your visit for our taste a 10 out of 10.
