"We tried this restaurant as it was a little away from the front. Arrived early, so we chose a table with an open window overlooking the canal with its posh boats and accommodations. The beef filet was good quality but cooked rare instead of the requested medium and the pizza was also under-cooked and had to be sent back for more time in the oven which did little for its taste: it was quite bland. The bread with aioli was encouraged 3 times otherwise the service was fine. Prices were a little high."

"Nice restaurant. Staff is really friendly! We got free olives and sardines served at the table. Paëlla was good, but not the best I ever had. We had a nice table overlooking the water and boats. Would I come here again? Certainley."
