The seafood starters are incredibly fresh and abundant, and the rice was delicious as well. We had 5 starters (all seafood, all great) and a main course + dessert + wine for 25 ⬠each. The food kept coming and the staff was very nice. 100% recommend!

Ate here yesterday with family on their recommendation. From the outside you might not have the highest expectations but the food was absolutely excellent, and the chef a real character. The calamari with peppers and crispy spinach and octopus galician style were particularly gorgeous. Will definitely return. In fact we have one more evening before returning home and already in dispute about whether to try somewhere else..

Letâs start with the positives. The food is amazing! The cooking is to a very high standard and, some dishes at Michelin-star level, with great presentation and some wonderfully creative cooking. For this standard of cooking the prices are reasonable. The chef, Albert Guzman, seems a thoroughly nice man, who manages to find the time to speak with his guests, which is really appreciated.However, the quality of the food is not matched by the quality of the setting and the standard of the service. The restaurant sits on the ground floor of an apartment holiday block with 6 or 7 floors above set back from and with no view of the beach. The outside tables were plastic and it was very hot. The outside lights were too bright. Inside it was cooler, but overly light and soulless â awful.The wine selection was disappointing too with odd choices that did not complement the food and no apparent expertise in helping us choose. This talented young chef deserves a better location and front of house support to match his undoubted skills.

Just wow! I canât believe I havenât discovered this place before, but now I have, it will be on my âmust visitâ list of places to eat in Sant Carles. We had the steak tartare which really was the best I have ever had (and Iâve had a lot). It was made with bone marrow at the table and was really delicious. We then had the tomahawk steak which was also outstanding. It was cut at the table and then you can cook it to your taste on a grill on your table. Served with yummy chimichurri sauce. Even the little potatoes were delicious. As other people have said, the staff were really friendly and welcoming. We met the Argentinian couple who ran it, who clearly took care in the meat/food and were keen to provide good service. We ate in the braseria, which is a separate section to the buffet. Ok, so itâs not the most beautiful romantic setting, but the food speaks for itself. I will be rushing back - in fact, Iâm going twice in my short trip to Sant Carles and canât wait to visit again soon. Highly recommended!

Family restaurant specializes in fish, seafood and rice, also some meet.Our special dishes:Paella, Suquet, fresh fish and meet. We always closed in november(OUR HOLIDAYS)
The "Menu Turistic" was advertised on a board outside at â¬20 per person. We hadn't booked but there was availability for a late lunch in their outside pavilion-type room with sea views.We started with a large green salad to share, served with the lightest toasted bread I've ever tasted and aioli, followed by hot steamed mussels, a seafood paella, desserts of crema catalana and "flan". Wine was included - the white, in particular, was delicious - and coffees were too.We only had two minor gripes;1. The paella arrived and was placed next to our table before we'd finished eating the mussels.2. As the menu was advertised at â¬20 and everything we had was included we were expecting the bill to be â¬40 for two but it was â¬44. IVA (tax) of 10% was added. As this is not an optional charge, why advertise it as a â¬20 menu when it costs â¬22? The meal was worth the higher price, but this practice is just irritating and unnecessary. Then when we paid by credit card the price was converted from euros to GBPs without consulting us. Not surprisingly the restaurant's bank converts at an unfavourable rate plus a commission charge, which my credit card wouldn't have done. Why do some restaurants do this without asking the customer if they want the bill converted to another currency?In the end the meal for two advertised at â¬40 costed â¬46, which wasn't what we expected.I have given this restaurant 5 stars based on the food and service (other than the mistimed paella) alone.Thanks for your evaluation, it helps us improve day by day. For our part we always charge in the currency that the client tells us. Bank commissions suffered a lot.
