A fantastic restaurant right on the beach and port, perfect for enjoying seafood and rice dishes. The service was excellent and attentive, and the prices were reasonable for the quality of the food. The black rice we ordered was one of the best I've ever tasted.

Spanish restaurant, prompt service. Fresh fish; they have refrigerated display cases showcasing the catch, explain the menus, and serve it exactly as described. Good service, fast, and clean. There were two of us, and we chose a seafood platter (half portion) plus wine, with complimentary fried fish and mussels as starters. Very competitive and affordable prices.
