    Thank you, Manuel, for your professional and friendly service. It was a pleasure. We had lunch there on Friday, August 14th, and it couldn't have been better. The paellas were delicious. Quality, price, and service... 10 out of 10! Highly recommended!

    Nice atmosphere, everything very beautiful. We ordered an appetizer, they sent a basket of bread as an accompaniment (we didn't order it), and charged us for the bread. I found that a bit inconvenient. If we didn't order it, don't serve it. If you serve it, don't charge us!!

    We went for lunch on a Friday and the paella buffet was fantastic; for €27 it includes dessert. A tip: the paellas are served until 2 pm, so don't arrive earlier. They charge €3 per person for bread and olives (which I think is a bit unfair, as it's something they bring without asking). I must highlight the excellent service from Pilar, the waitress; she was incredibly attentive and friendly.
