"Lovely restaurant just 5 minutes walk from the main touristy church square with more authentic local vibes to the place. The food, we had a great paella, made by someone that actually knows what a paella should be was great. Our waitress who comes from Porto Rica was very helpful and attentive was serving every one with a smile."

"Nice place for breakfast, good service, clean and comfortable. Food was good, but not great. Avocado toast with salmon had smoked salmon that was not really fresh and didn't taste good."
