4.5 / 5.0(2,590 reviews)
We (a family of 4) visited in the evening for a dinner on Wednesday evening. We booked a table at 20:00 a couple hours beforehand. At that time the restaurant is quite empty but gets busy by 20:30-21:00. Overall, a great experience. We tried a lot of different tapas. The meatballs were absolutely amazing, as were the anchovies, squid and more. The service was fast and very friendly. We had a great time. Outstanding dinner in a restaurant with wonderful atmosphere. I doubt I shall have a better meal on this trip. Don’t miss the morcilla or torrija! This place is a must if you’re foodie and in Cartagena, every single tapas I’ve tried was delicious and staff was just amazing!
