My wife and I were joined by two other couples. None of us had been to this restaurant previously but had visited the more well known Alfredo’s next door.

We received a very warm welcome from the owner and staff and were seated in the covered outside section which despite this time of Year was pleasantly warm, due to strategically placed gas heaters.

Starters we ordered included the ever popular gambas pil pil, anchoas with tomato, sardines with lime, and scrambled egg with pata negra. Delicious, and washed down with a manteqilla sherry freshly drawn from the barrel. This restaurant specialises in a fine selection of traditional sherries drawn from the barrel on the premises. Well worth trying as they are substantially superior to bottled sherries.

Mains dishes included grilled fresh turbot, sea bass, squid, and fillet steaks, all served with fresh seasonal vegetables, and washed down by a fine Spanish Sauvignon Blanc. Flambé cheesecake with cranberries followed which was absolutely delicious.

Service was excellent throughout the meal and the very attentive waiters and owner ensured that our evening ran smoothly without problem. An added bonus was the flamenco dancer who added to the ambiance of the evening.

It is worth repeating that this restaurant prides itself on providing top quality local sherries drawn from the barrel, and it is well worth trying the many different types. The staff are very considerate in helping ‘first timers’ choose the right sherry for them.

Overall this was an excellent dining experience, one that we hope will be repeated on future visits. I have no real complaints and this is definitely a restaurant we thoroughly recommend to travellers looking for a complete dining experience at a competitive price. Well worth a visit.

Worth it but it is expensive when compared to Alfredo’s next door. Impossible to compare the two apart from one which is full to brimming and one which is not. Despite that we shall go back to both. One foe easy everyday value and this one for exquisite pleasure and special occasions. Never miss this one. It’s fantastic. Doubt you will spend less than 50 euros each. We go each trip. We first found it st it’s previous location and followed the owner, staff and wonderful experience to this relatively new location.

What fantastic service the waiters provide and the showmanship of serving sherry adds to the whole experience.
The food here is a exceptional, four of us ordered different starters and shared them, every dish was really good and the scrambled eggs were wonderful, never seen scrambled eggs listed anywhere else as a starter and the flavour was so very different from traditional "egg and toast". This a definite must go back to place
