Diving into the menu, I couldn't resist trying the highly praised calamari, which Lucyna C highlighted as a standout dish. The calamari were tender and perfectly seasoned, reminding me of sun-soaked shores. The poke bowl, with its vibrant ingredients, brought a nice freshness to the table, and the wine selection was nothing short of excellent. The old-style French fries were a nostalgic touch that evoked the classic bistro experience.

Surprises us sooo positively!!! We entered with low expectations but tapas and deserts, coffee were excellent for such a bar! Service was very fast. Well done!

Accueil très agréable, nous avons très bien mangé face a l océan, que demander mieux ! Un service de pro de A a Z

Great calamari, decent poke bowl, excellent wine. Nice old-style French fries :) Stayed here for late lunch and don’t regret. Merci!

So glad we chose this restaurant to have lunch, every aspect we excellent. We were greeted by a friendly waitress, who brought a bowl of water for our dog. We had beer blonde and a cocktail with our starter of Padron peppers. We both had the burgers, my wife the veggie option, again all excellent. We didn't have dessert but from what we could see they looked very appealing. The price was correct with a nice sea view, what more can you ask for, will go back one day as I like the look of the burritos!

Nette Bedienung, gutes Essen, viele spannende Biere frisch vom Fass und ein fanatischer Ausblick auf den Sonnenuntergang - was will man mehr?!

First the view. It's great to sit on the terrace overlooking the sea. The burgers are all delicious, even the doneness medium means really medium. That is great. You have to make some compromises with the fries, but overall the offer is okay.
