Reviewers frequently praise the excellent service and the overall delightful dining experience, with many calling it the best food they've had in Spain. However, a few diners have noted issues with service speed and communication barriers with some staff.
"I ate here twice in 2 days! On my third day I could not decide where to go, so I went back to Agallas. Because of the good service and the great food. I was alone in Mérida and that was not a problem at all. Sometimes restaurants put me at the bar, that was not the case here. The pulpo with pancetta was my absolute favorite."
Denise de Boer
"The fusion /innovated dishes didn’t meet our expectations; the service was rough. The best dish was the clams that was a successful innovation dish must order at this place. The waitress spoke very little English so we had hard time communicating."
Robin Wang
