"This place was a real find. It is right next to a very cheap car park which is handy. None of the staff spoke a word of English, and our Spanish is hit and miss to put it mildly. This led to much hilarity in trying to communicate, and the staff were truly wonderful. We didn't really have a clue what we were ordering, so just chose all the stuff on the tapas menu for all six of us. The young waiter went above and beyond the call of duty in explaining which dishes could be shared and which ones didn't really lend themselves to being shared. He prevented us from making quite a few mistakes, and we really appreciated his efforts. The food was outstanding. Delicious croquettes of various types, prawn tempura (it wasn't really a tempura batter, but was very nice nonetheless), tasty Octopus Galician style and a lovely gazpacho style soup. All home made, freshly prepared, good ingredients and with excellent and helpful service. Really VERY good value for money too. They forgot to add our second bottle of wine to the bill, and were delighted (and somewhat astonished) when we told them. We left what we considered to be a fair tip (about 15%, as the service and food werevreally good and the staff were so accommodating), and we thought the waitress was going to faint, she was so happy! This was easily the best meal I had during our visit to Murcia. A real gem of a restaurant. Well done guys, and thank you for the food and great service!"
