    Considering that this restaurant only opened this week, the food was great. Service was good, but the kitchen sent out the roast potatoes and salad, without any of the other dishes ie calamari and prawns, which came out 20 minutes later. This was a disappointment, as we did not want to eat the potatoes on their own, and by the time the protein arrived, the potatoes were cold. However, all the dishes we ordered were fabulous! Great taste!

    Wonderful authentic Spanish food. Decor and Spanish music, along with the fabulous food, Sangrias and lovely friendly staff, and it feels like you’re on holiday in Spain. We had a fabulous night and are looking forward to our next visit. So many things still to try. Love how the menu suits any appetite: snack size, tapas, or something more substantial like paella.

    Having struggled to find any decent restaurants on the Coast since we moved to Australia I was excited to dine here and wasn’t disappointed! The food is outstanding, the service impeccable and so nice to hear Spanish accents from the staff, and the decor is exquisite. I love the door! We’ll be back again and again!
