“ I had a good experience here. The server was very friendly. I got the mini de jamón, orange juice and water. They prefer cash if you sit at a table but do take cards for take away. So if you sit down and must pay with a card they just tell you to go to the counter to pay. ”
“ Reading the other reviews, I am kind of surprised. We have had a lot of great things here. In fact it has become our go to place for sangria. The sandwiches are very good and reasonably priced. I did not eat the paella because there are so many true paella places in the area. The views are nice and the wait staff has always been on point. Again, for sangria it is one of the best. ”
“ Really awesome place with nice staff and a beautiful view on the Serrano Tower! Would absolutely recommend. We’ve been here three times and all the times were super. They also have tasty tapas for a nice price. The only thing for me was the toilet: it’s a little old, there was no toilet seat. For a woman not so comfortable. ”
“ We had potatoes and shrimp pancakes, and also beer. I confused the feednbacks from other guys. Not so bad. Yes, there really are problems with the door, guys, fixing it. It seems to me that it is done quite quickly. But overall it is also quite normal and corresponds to the price of a cafe. ”
