The best restaurant we've been coming to for over 10 years, and everything is excellent. We love it and will definitely return. I don't know if the reviews are fake or true, but they're 100% false because we've been coming here for over 10 years, and everything is perfect.

We ate here on two consecutive nights whilst on a short stay in Peniscola. The food on both brights was very good. The paella mixta on the second visit was exceptional, much better that the paellas in our area.
