We entered and we're brought to a table set up showing 2 different fish and the spice combinations and tasted the most delicious pieces of fish. Then we were seated at our table and the adventure began. We got 1 small course before choosing our menu. We were shown an iPad and asked to choose but the iPad doesn't really tell you much about what you will be getting so it's mostly a surprise. They're very conscious of any allergies though. There are currently 3 tasting menu options priced at 85, 120, and 150 eur for 8, 10, and 12 courses. There is also a beverage pairing option or you can order wine by the bottle or by the glass. We were surprised that didn't have more suggestions for us to pair glasses of wine and didn't have us taste the wine when we ordered it but that was really our only complaint. We opted for 10 and were satisfied with the amount of food. The dishes are small but they are spaced out well and there are someone's multiple parts to one dish. We also kept getting more bread to soak up all the delicious sauces. The meal took about 3 hours. The ambiance is lovely. Each dish is presented with such care and explained in detail, then sometimes oil is lovingly brushed on a piece of tuna with a bundle of rosemary, or creme fraiche is artfully dolloped on a ragout made of fish and then caviar is carefully tweezed on. There are swirls of chicken juice and other oils in dishes like you would find in trendy latte art. The food is creative and inventive and expands the boundaries of what you think seafood can taste like. They make Bolognese out of razor clams and uni, transform kombu seaweed into carbonara, and treat beets like a steak. The menu is very heavy on seafood with a meet course and a mini dinner of desserts at the end (appetizer, main, and dessert dessert). We had such a wonderful time. Highly recommend if you are into molecular gastronomy, love food and are willing to try anything. This is a 2 Michelin star experience (and priced as such) but worth it in my opinion.

All in all, a glass of red wine, a gin and tonic, a daiquiri, and an Old Fashioned. I had the Old Fashioned. I order it quite often, mainly because it's not a drink most places get right and so I try and find the few ones that do. This one does. It was one of the best Old Fashioneds (what would be the plural of Old Fashioned?) I've had and definitely the best in continental Europe that I've tried. The bar itself is visually spectacular, probably the best-looking bar on the Arenal, and the prices are more than reasonable for what you're getting. 4 stars (standard) - 0 (nothing bad) + 1 (great cocktails) = 5 stars

I ordered the chicken tandoori with yoghurt sauce, which was really tasty but, and this proved true for other dishes, the chili icon next to the item on the menu didn't seem to mean anything. If there was any spice, it didn't seem to warrant a chilli icon--it was barely anything. My girlfriend ordered the guacamole and chips, which also had the chilli icon next to it, but that also wasn't very spicy. The guacamole was okay, but was a little too creamy, like they have mixed it with yogurt. The reason it gets five stars is because of its brilliant presentation. Everything was presented very well, and very creatively. Even the patatas bravas (which I highly recommend) were served ingeniously. 4 stars (standard) - 0 (nothing bad) + 1 (great presentation) = 5 stars

If it wasn't for the service, this restaurant would have gotten 4 stars quite easily. I hesitated for a while but it really brought down the experience for me. The waiters are friendly and attend you quickly, some nuts and breadsticks are given free of charge while you wait. What I did not find pleasant however was to see other tables ariving after us and getting served earlier. The restaurant was quite busy but it wasn't full either. The wait was worth it though: my Crudo e ruccola pizza was great. We got some sort of free little breads with ham and olive oil as well which were quite delicious. If you eat there, I highly recommend you go on the terrace. They do not charge extra for being there (as far as I remember) and you'll get to enjoy a good meal while listening to the ocean waves. I will make sure to update my review if I ever get another chance to eat there again, maybe I was unlucky and the service was just not great that day.
