Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Chef Tomás López truly delivered an explosion of flavors. Umami can be tricky to achieve, yet it was perfectly present in one of the dishes. The service was fantastic—a friendly hostess explained every detail on the plate. Sadly, I forgot to snap a picture of the pulpo, which was absolutely amazing. Then came dessert: fresh and full of flavor, with the creamiest chocolate mousse cake and cheesecake I’ve ever had. All in all, the price-quality ratio was spot on!"
"Visited Elche for the day. I would come back just for this restaurant. The food is delicious and the staff were very attentive."
"We visited Elche for the first time 3 days ago and ate here. the food was fantastic, the glazed octopus delicious and the hamburgers excellent, a very nice boy and a very friendly girl attended us in English, excellent facilities, and very good service. The price is good in relation to the food. we will come back again."

We had the cream of wild mushroom soup and the Mexican taco with pulled bbq chicken as starters and then the baked cod with quinoa and vegetables. Very tasty carrot cake for dessert too.. a good-sized portion."
