Las comida que nos ofrecen, ya sea de plato o sus tapas, esta muy bien elaborada y muy rica. Dispone de una terraza exterior muy amplia, ideal en primavera/verano. Aunque su ubicación puede parecer compleja, recomiendo pasar y probar.

Fantastic place with absolutely amazing food and wonderful staff. Service is very friendly, cooks put a lot of heart while preparing the dishes and the owner is very welcoming. The beautiful view on the mountains is a nice extra. Hope the place can open soon and I can come with the revisit :)

Pedimos un montón de cosas y estaba todo muy rico y bien de precio. El restaurante está un poco en mitad de nada, pero realmente vale la pena ir. Ha sido un gran descubrimiento y tenemos pendiente volver para probar el coulant de chocolate blanco Lo que debe mejorar es el servicio, ya que nos fuimos sin tomar el postre ni los cafés porque estaban tardando muchísimo en traerlos (unos 15-20 min). Tip: Prueben el canelón del chef, es una locura de bueno.

Había estado ya hace un par de años pero hemos vuelto este finde y todo sigue espectacular. Sitio muy agradable con una amplia terraza, el servicio es rápido y el personal muy agradable. La comida es algo espectacular , todo riquísimo y con buenas carnes a la brasa… las raciones son abundantes y el precio insuperable. Sin duda todo un acierto.

Un molt bon lloc per dinar. El menú canvia sovint i sempre tenen algun plat que sorprèn i diferent. Molt recomendable en familia i sense dubte fent el menú. Jo vaig fer el txuleton de vaca vella que està espectacular. També molt bon el canaló de pollastre rostit amb una beixamel espectacular. El carpaccio de vaca és sempre un plat segur i molt bo. Els postres, no ho dubteu... el coulant

Buen trato. Buena comida, con porciones adecuadas. Tiene terraza con vistas a Monserrat. Precio razonable. No tardaron en servirnos. En mi caso bebí vino y estaba bueno. Carta variada. Todo lo que comimos en nuestra opinión estaba muy bueno.
