CASA FRANCO FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…read more I came here twice with the company I was working for. Since my boss always paid for everything. BUT I'M SURE IT'S REALLY EXPENSIVE :D I think if I'd know the prices, I would pretty much give it ZERO stars hahahah. kidding :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, what we always got was: HUGE SCAMPIES ROASTET IN OIL + ALCOHOL served in huge flames A PLATE WITH DIFFERENT FISH FILETS + a unique secret sauce made by Franco STEAK, small peaces of steak with different sauces. and more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Honestly I don't remember it all but I know you get a lot, and all the seafood you get are really really delicious. I remember I dropped the whole steak I picked it up and still ate it, that's how good it was. But I was drunk anyways haha. LOCATION: Very very small, I guess about 20 people max. It's great, because it gives you a nice familiar cozy atmosphere. If you have the money and wanna do yourself somethiing good. Come here.

Our waiter was really nice and friendly and even gave us a sample of some of the wines before ordering (without us asking for it first). The house white wine was quite nice! Next up was the main entrée and we decided to share the seafood paella and it was massive! It was filled with all types of different super tasty seafood.

We were 3 friends and decided to order 2 plates of tapas and 1 plate of grilled gambas to share between us. The grilled gambas was lukewarm on the outside and cold on the inside. The texture was chewy and it lacked the juiciness of fresh seafood. The tapas came on to small plates each with 2 croquettes and a shrimp on top of some prosciutto style ham, chorizo (I asume) and some cheese. We tried the croquettes which were soggy with oil. Then we wanted to try the shrimp but as it was smelly we did not dare it. We quietly and politely pointed out our complaints to the waiter who claimed that everything was fresh and the grilled gambas was cooked just then. We invited him to feel the coldness inside the gambas and to smell the shrimps. He just maintained that the food was freshly cooked from fresh ingredients. We ended up paying 22€ while leaving with our stomachs as empty as on arrival.

No fishy smell or taste. Bathrooms were clean and there was plenty of street parking if you drive. They have a good amount of indoor and outdoor seating too.
