"Decent food, decent place. Gets busy. They give you bread but don't tell you you have to pay for it and instead of tap water they make you pay for a bottle of water."

"Great place with delicious food, good prices and fast service. We ordered a mix of different tapas, including deep fried squid (rabas), scallops in garlic oil (zamburiños), squid croquettes (croquettes chipirones) and potatas bravas. All were very delicious. They also had Tinto Verrano which was nice. Our waiter, Teo, was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend"
