A group.of 12 visited on 2 August. We ordered our starters and main . However 2 has ordered ribs ,and 2 beef cheeks. About 35 mins after taking the order the waiter came over and said there were no ribs. So both people had to re order other dishes Then about 10 minutes later the waiter came over again and said there were no beef cheeks ,so again those people had to re order.. It was very disappointing ,and such a long time after ordering to be informed. Why didn't the waiters know what wasn't available ? The food is very good. Because we complained that the 4 dishes that had to be re ordered were more expensive ,eventually the waitress who was very helpful came and she did agree to take the difference in price from the bill. Even with the reduction our bill was €600. So not a small amount ! We had visited the same restaurant a year ago without any issues,but this year ,we ordered drinks that they forgot to bring ,and the service seemed disorganised. We were all eating our main dish but one person was still sat waiting for hers to arrive ! However one person asked for chicken to be added to her curry dish which they very kindly did .
A great place, only a short walk along the beach from Moraira town. Amazing location on a secluded sandy beach. Really nice food, excellent service and good value. Highly recommended.
Beautiful setting, food and service. Blue cheese salad starter and duck main. Would definitely recommend as also good value for money. Staff are lovely and take clear pride in what they do.
Best paella I’ve ver had!!! Everything was super good and fresh. The boquerones and chopitos were divine. You can’t forget about the bread with the Ali oili and the tomate. The paella was super tasty and had really good seafood mixed into it. The seafood was so soft and tender. The calamari in it was also soft and tasty. We paired all this with a fantastic rioja that was medium full body with a nice dry finish to it. After, we shared the torrija and a crema catalana to end the lunch. Make reservations ahead of time.
