"My friend recommended this tapas restaurant to my wife and I so the three of us along with another business colleague came here for one magnificent dining experience. From the first tapas to the last, we were thrilled with everything we ate. What made the meal even better was the presentation of several of the tapas. We started with the Badulaque salad. Now, a salad is a salad. That is unless it is a Badulaque salad. This creation came with lettuce, spinach, cashews, raisins, tomatoes, goat cheese, balsamic, and an amazing creamy garlic dressing. Best salad ever! Next up was a beautifully presented couscous plate. This also had raisins and cashews. We then moved to gambas al ajillo. This is my go to tapa. While not the best ever, it was quite tasty with plenty to share for four people. After that we had crispy shrimp, which were cut in half and served with a salsa brava. Speaking of that, we also had an order of patatas bravas. This was the best ever patatas bravas. They were filled with an explosion of salsa brava. After that we moved to the lamb cutlets, which truth be told, were just slightly overdone. Lamb should alway be served with some redness showing. Lastly, we shared an Iberian pork dish served Thai style. While amazing, it was not spicy as I would have expected for Thai style. All in all, an absolutely perfect meal. The service was great as was the view. I sincerely thank my colleague for recommending this place to us."

"good food, good size rations, and normal prices. Choco albondigas, very rich and good fries of edges, adobo cazon and choco. rich calf chopton too. very good the start that accompanies the fish rations. They have a single dessert, the pulley, too. good service, attentive and fast. located on a narrow and pedestrian street that gives you a bunny air. Inside there's a little salon, well, for my better goose out. clean services. they have a fish exposer, quality products. fault, they don't have coffee. When it rotates again I will return."

"We had been here before and enjoyed our eclectic array of tapas, but the prices have gone up significantly. The service was friendly and good this time and the wine, a dark red Rioja, was excellent considering the price €3.40/glass), smooth, robust, and oakey, just the way I like it. It was the best value on the menu. Not all that hungry, I ordered the BarBQ Ribs Tacos €6.90/two) and Chicken and Vegetable Gyozas six for €6.50). The tacos were okay, a bit flavorless, they could have been much better. The gyozas were crispy and tasty, and the sweet chili sauce was a nice addition, but they were rather small and gone in just six bites. Even though I was not famished, I left feeling unsatiated and a bit disappointed. Having paid almost €24, including tip, it did not seem like a €24 meal even though the wine was an added value. Not bad overall, but not quite a TravelValue in my book. CombatCritic Gives Utopia 5 Bombs Out Of 10 ... More Bombs Are Better!"
