"Fuimos sin reserva y nos hicieron hueco enseguida. Nos atendió el camarero más antiguo y chapó. Pedimos dos tapas: Ensaladilla de pulpo (especacular) y croquetas de puchero (caseras a más no poder). Y una parrillada para dos adultos y una niña de 11 años. Sobró comida, para 4 personas es perfecta. Si vais 5 con 4 tapas y la parrillada coméis de sobra. Una cosa que nos sorprendió fue la calidad de las papas ya que no eran congeladas, estaban cortadas por ellos. Repetiremos sin duda, es ese tipo de restaurantes que se convierten en un seguro a la hora de comer con la familia."

"Fuimos a cenar con unas amigas y nos encantó. La comida estaba riquísima, con una carta muy variada y opciones para todos los gustos. El servicio fue excelente: rápido, atento y muy amable en todo momento. La relación calidad-precio es difícil de superar, incluso diría que tirando a barato para lo bien que se come. Me gustó tanto que repetí al día siguiente, y sin duda volveré cuando regrese a San Fernando. ¡Totalmente recomendable!"

"I was recommended Ari by my Air bnb host, and loved it. My Spanish is very bad at the minute, but Luis (server) was really helpful! He was really friendly, and he recommended what would be good to eat. He was right. The food was amazing, and we went away talking about how much we enjoyed our meal there. We will definitely return!"
