I'm visiting my daughter who lives in Santander. This was the end of my stay, so the two of us…read moredecided to go out for a nice dinner. This is a fantastic location with great views, but I recommend staying away from the restaurant side. Before our meal, the server walked around with an enormous tray of warm bread and said, "We start with bread here. Would you like some?" We had bread plates in front of us, and we accepted. The meal was delicious. When she brought the bill, it was hidden inside a closed book, and she also stood waiting for payment with the card payment machine in hand. I usually look over my bill, but due to it being higher end and inside the book, with her standing ready for payment, I would've felt awkward, so I paid. I later realized why they did that: once I saw my bill, I discovered we'd been charged for the chunks of bread (€5 each), and for an additional glass of wine. I've been to high end and very high end restaurants around the world, and I've never seen this before at such an establishment.

Was a beautiful view on this beautiful day! They have 2 restrooms, one in the dining room and one in the tavern (one person each). But the staff, saw the women group lining up, came by to let me know, there's more in the tavern side. Our food: Cesar Salad. Was so good! It also came Fresh Hake from Santander, served with tomato sauce, but instead olive oil. (I was given lots of oil on my plate, but the lady - well known world traveler - decided to exchange with mine Hake. We got the Local Cantebrian Dessert. See photos.

Note, this place is VERY popular with locals, so it's highly recommended that you make reservations before your trip. Fortunately for me, I was with folks from Santander, so they did all of the ordering for me. Unfortuantely for my review, I do not remember all of the delicious things that I ate. Also, unfortunately for my review, I was far too hungry to take a lot of pictures of the food. However, trust me, you will NOT be disappointed with anything that you order. The menu offers a wide selection of meat, seafood, shellfish and cheese dishes. From my memory, my top picks for our lunch were: bonito, manchego cheese (smelly, but delicious), albóndigas and cachón en tinta. Ok, I guess I remembered more that I thought. For US standards, the prices are very generous especially for the amount and quality of food that you'll receive. While our servers were pretty friendly, I found the atmosphere of the restaurant to be a bit intense. I think this intensity is due to the popularity of the restaurant, and we visited during a very busy lunch. However, once you place your orders and the food starts coming out, things will be a bit more relaxed.
