This is the kind of restaurant one wants to find while travelling. We've been on a Road Trip…read morethrough Spain and Portugal for several weeks. And this place here is one that we will remember for a long long time.
It's a fantastic restaurant with a big list of wonderful items. Also daily specials like Paella or Lobster. As well as many small plates.
Since there's wasn't any Paella on the menu that day we decided to go for the fresh Lobster in rice. And what a great choice that was. Simply the best Lobster we've ever had....and we quite had some. It was similar to a Paella. A whole Lobster cooked in amazing seafood broth and rice. At first the dish is more soup-like, until the hot pan thickens the broth and it becomes more like a Paella.
Cooking lobster seems easy, but it's hard to cook it to perfection. But that's what it was here: Perfection. Fresh as well too....you can see them alive and swimming inside the restaurant. We were so thrilled with that dish that we ordered it again on our third night here.
But on the second night we ordered a bunch of small plates:
- Razor Clams (fresh, great oil and herbs)
- grilled/salter peppers (right balance between spicy and salty)
- Scallops (nice sized)
- Two whole Crabs (juicy, tender, fresh)
- Anchovies in oil (good quality, oil as well)
- Fries with cheese on top (can't go wrong with cheesy fries)
Always a bottle of wine with. Including ice cooler. This place here is really outstanding all around. Treated us like family, always a warm welcome, even though most customers were locals, which was very nice. Friendly folks, lots of regulars that came every night.
Our dog was welcome here as well, which was nice. Prices fair, never paid more than 50 Euros for everything. Lobster with rice (feeds two) only 35 Euros.
Freshness is key....and everything here was perfectly fresh and perfectly cooked. One of the really great meals we've had this year.
