I recently dined at this restaurant and really enjoyed their Paella. Since I didn't finish it, I requested a box to take the leftovers home. They took the dish to the kitchen, saying they would wrap it for me. However, when I got home, I was shocked to find that they had added a large amount of what was clearly their leftover rice to my food. This completely ruined the dish, and I had no choice but to throw it all away. Not only was this an unacceptable and unsanitary practice, but it also left a bad taste in my mouth, both literally and figuratively. I felt disrespected as a customer. At other restaurants where I enjoy the food, staff members are usually happy when I ask to take leftovers home. It feels like this place doesn't appreciate their customers or their food enough to allow someone to enjoy it the next day. I won't be returning, and I would caution others to think twice before dining here, especially if you plan on taking any leftovers home.
Great view , nice atmosphere, Excellent food presentation however food looked better than it tasted. The food was tasty but not above the area average. In other words it's good but it could be better. The staff was super friendly and helpful.
Achamos razoável pelo potencial que tem. Local incrível, com uma vista privilegiada mas mal aproveitado. Restaurante barulhento com atendimento muito confuso, sem organização alguma. A Comida estava boa, com ótimo preço e quantidade, mas o local, a vista merece um lugar melhor, no geral.
Meu me surpreendi positivamente com tamanho da porção e qualidade do risoto de frutos do mar. Vim com minha filha (5a) devido parque infantil que também gostei muito.
