“ I stumbled upon this charming little bar on a Sunday morning while looking for a place to have breakfast, and I was pleasantly surprised. It’s a small spot with a lot of personality, beautifully decorated, and run by a hardworking and enthusiastic team. We decided to keep it simple but ended up having a fantastic breakfast. The tortilla de patatas was a highlight – possibly one of the largest tortillas I’ve ever seen! The waiter mentioned it was made with 3.5 kg of potatoes, which was impressive. The Jamon Iberico, however, was a bit underwhelming for me. The waiter really hyped it up, but it didn’t quite meet my expectations. To be fair, I work in the business and eat jamon every day, which makes me a very tough critic. It was vacuum-sealed and hand-cut, but I personally prefer it sliced a bit thinner. That said, my friend loved it, and that’s what matters most. The pan con tomate was delicious, and the freshly squeezed orange juice was the perfect finishing touch. Overall, this is definitely a place I’d return to. I’m looking forward to trying more of their offerings! ”
“ Lovely friendly staff who spoke English quite well. Always a smile and helpful attitude. Food was great, tried a bit of all the small dishes and was full at a very reasonable price. Still squeezed in the tiramisu and glad I did, it was delicious! ”
“ Best tapas of the trip, all the dishes were packed with flavour! It's always a good sign when the place is filled with locals. The no-frills service and exposed brickwork added to the ambience. I dug in too quickly to take pictures but the tarta de Santiago was also gorgeous. Would recommend to anyone! My only feedback would be for 19, I would expect slightly more octopus in comparison to potatoes in the dish, but this is only minor. ”
“ This is a nice surprise for our trip. The food is authentic and the staff were very friendly. Grilled sardines and meatballs were highlight of the night. Importantly, we were trying to order several tapas given the low prices, assuming they would come in as very small portions. However, the staff recommended us order fewer dishes, and offered to make half portions of two dishes (patatas bravas and Spanish omelette) so that we didn't order too much. It's very nice of them and very different from those restaurants in the touristic areas. Highly recommend this place if you want to eat local. ”
“ Incredibly delicious food. Super friendly staff! Simply a top-notch restaurant! ”
