"If you're in Cartegena, Don't miss this one. It looks like a normal Spanish restaurant, but they really do serve up up high quality, above average food. The service is fast, polite, professional, and friendly."

"We (a family of 4) visited in the evening for a dinner on Wednesday evening. We booked a table at 20:00 a couple hours beforehand. At that time the restaurant is quite empty but gets busy by 20:30-21:00. Overall, a great experience. We tried a lot of different tapas. The meatballs were absolutely amazing, as were the anchovies, squid and more. The service was fast and very friendly. We had a great time."
