While in Torredembarra we used to go to La Quilla, which is still listed in the TripAdvisor restaurant of Torredembarra but now closed by almost a year. We loved that place for their “arroz com bogavante”. The first time we went there in 2010, it blew our minds but this time we had to find an alternative as my lovely one, from Brasil, after few days without rice has serious sign of rice withdrawal and she loves the “bogavante” preparation. The place is large and very well located on the beach front. This is also an historical place with many recurring customers as I read the reviews including a friend of mine who has an apartment few meters (or yards for US) away. We were there for dinner. With our surprise there were very few customers considering we were in mid-August while the crowd passing-by the beach front walkway was quite large. Maybe it was just a sign of the pervading European economic crisis. As we were sitting I heard a patron with his family complaining about the quality of the food that “was not like it used to be”. He was a long time Spanish customers spending his vacation in Torredembarra. Not a good start. The manager however handled the situation with class, listening to the specifics of the complaint and profusely apologizing for the “accident”.Well, maybe we had the same experience. Of course being our first time there we could not compare with prior experience. If this would have been our first restaurant in Spain it would have been an OK one. No WOW factor but a decent meal. However being accustom to very good restaurants and knowing how good the Spanish cuisine can be combined with the high expectation set by reading the reviews, we were a little disappointed. Maybe it was just a bad day and for sure we will give them another chance.

Located near the beautiful city of Tarragona this place is worth the detour. Clearly off the beaten paths you will find a friendly and cosy little place where food is home made, service is perfect and the prices are more than reasonable. Menu available in English! Pizzas customizable. And the salad comes with the dressing on the side. In one word: perfect!

This modern "gastrobar" offers a 3 course set Sunday lunch - which we had on the day that we arrived as Spanish custom allows for eating later than the French! After that we enjoyed sharing many of the dishes from the menu as they offer large and small portions. Memorable was the hake dish, the anchovies on toasted bread, the tomato bread and all of it reasonably priced. We thought that the lamb tagine could have done with a bit more spice - but that's a matter of taste! Staff service was excellent, friendly, professional and efficient. We liked the fact that it was possible to eat light as well as put together a substantial meal.Worth a detour - but check opening as I think they close from the end of October for a few months.Thank you so much for your comments! Our Gastrobar 13/21 it's open from April until the ends of October. We hope to see you again next season! Bets regards form our whole team. Jordi Ferré - Hotel Manager

We arrived to eat on Sunday night and it was very quiet. The restaurant is set on a round about and boast a wonderful looking patio with large shade trees. The interior of the restaurant is well appointed and clean. The staff were more than helpful with the language barrier. Excellent selection of wines, we chose a medium bodied white. Decided on a lobster paella dinner that included three starters. Everything was fresh, the salad was cold and crisp, the mussels were steamed perfectly and the breaded squid was full of crisp. The paella was piping hot and well presented. An exceptional plate! We split a ravioli chocolate dessert which was utterly decadent. A must for any fan of chocolate and fresh cream. Thank you very much for your coment.

Your beachside oasis in the beautiful seaside town of Altafulla. The best Spanish cuisine, for midday or evening meals. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Spent 12 nights in Altafulla in July. We found our favourite restaurant called Polini Bar and Restaurant. There are actually 2 Polini restaurants close to each other but the Bar and Restaurant was our favourite. Myles and Roberto were so welcoming. The food was excellent with plenty of variety although we fell in love with the Potatas Bravas - best we have every tasted. Great Tapas, fish dishes and good wine.The tables are situated right on the beach and its such a relaxing place to dine. We would highly recommend Polini

Stumbled across this small restaurant on our way back to our hotel. Excellent service - attentive and multilingual waiter and manager. The food on both our visits was tasty and well-prepared. The food and drink was also very good value. Two meals and 2 cava plus a coffee for 24 euros. This is a must visit restaurant.

The poor menu leaves few alternatives - so i ordered a burger. This was the most greasy and disgusting piece of meat I have ever encountered. Served with something like a beast’s gut on top - that gushed even more fat over it, and potatoes on the side. No vegetables at all - just a few cooked onion rings, and no bread.Now a few hours later I can still feel the greasy fat slowly moving it’s way down my intestines. Man that was utterly disgusting!Sorry to tell you that in our restaurant no greasy meat is served, however we take note of your comments to keep improving.
