    Not very cheap, I recommend pizza Caraibe it's very good. Update 2020, the owner is very unfriendly. For a better understanding of this statement just try to go from the sand to the bar and order something (the restaurant is open space in the sand and the bar is on some cheap wooden floor tiles). He will go crazy and lecture you, not nice at all!

    Don’t go there. Good food poor management. The owner really ruins the experience. He’s not only drunk but also rude. Cursing seems to be his way of a conversation. Never again.

    The most disgusting restaurant I’ve been. The food came with 1:30h delay, some didn’t come at all. The personal is arrogant and cares about making profit, and zero for the service and the food quality. Deeply sorry for my choice!

    Worst customer care! I've entered with another 2 adults (2 grandmas) and 2 kids (10 and 12). We wanted to sit at a table of 6. They said, quite aggressively, not to sit down until we read the menu which was displayed at the entrance on a wipe-clean white board, written in black pencil, quite small. We were tired after driving the entire day, we just wanted to eat. It was late in the night, at around 9:00pm. They were extremely rude and made us feel unwanted there and like we are not their type of customers. I explained to them that in a welcoming place, the waiter will present the free table, the menu, the dish of the day, something. Never seen this type of management of a place anywhere. They kinda sent us out. I do not recommend it.

    Very good food but be prepared for a very unfriendly atmosphere. The staff is passive-aggressive all the time (if they don't know you). If you ask about the food they send you outside to read the menu which is witten on a blackboard. I find it very rude since you have to remember the menu when you sit on the table and order the food. If you ask for something they don't have anymore (but they had it an hour ago) it's like you commit a crime and the waiters almost yell at you. The general feeling is that you are not desired there and they do all they can to make you to leave the restaurant. I've seen a lot of bad scenes with people sent outside. Nobody smiles in that place. You'll wait at least one hour to be served. Prices are huge for their services but I repeat, the food is very good. Keep that in mind when you visit that place.

    The owner was drunk and was embarrassing. It was our third time there, but we will avoid it from now on.

    Food and staff are reasonable, but the drunk owner/manager makes it a horrible experience.

    Looking like a nice little tavern on the beach but lacking in service and menu. Also prices are way to high for the offer, especially for the fish dishes.

    Nice experience as the location is really great, right in the beach with a nice view. Prices are a bit high, but considering the location it's okay. We only had drinks, so I won't review the food. Friendly staff and responsive.

    Very very very expensive for the quality and quantities. More than half of restaurant if I can call it like that was empty on a Saturday evening. The tables and chairs are on sand and they don't even have something paved to get in with the stroller,

    We were 3 adults and two small children at dinner. The owner was drunk and approached us very rudely asking us to choose another table without any reason. The quality of the dishes is far from what it once was.

    Nice location, the food did not disappoint!

  • 2/5 Catalin G. 7 months ago on Google
    Been here many times in the past 2013-2019, used to be a great restaurant. Back now after four years (due to covid), food not what it used to be, service poor, prices way too high for what they serve. Very disappointed.

  • 1/5 Alex M. 8 months ago on Google
    I noticed the waiter that I found human hair in pizza and he said that it cannot be their fault as the guy who made the is bald. None of the employees even apologized.

  • 1/5 Raluca N. 1 year ago on Google
    Arrogant personal. The restaurant is on the beach. It's nowhere written that you are not allowed to entry the restaurant only with swimsuit on you. We politely asked if they have a table free and they arrogantly answered "not for people only with swimsuit, go dress up, come again and we'll see if there's a free table".

    We walked on the beach and stopped here to eat, barefoot. We ordered like 5 different fish dishes, which came fast and tasted amazing! They even provided insect repellent for those nosy mosquitos 😌

  • 1/5 Dragos I. 1 year ago on Google
    Very expensive! Even the area is known as expensive, they exagerate.

  • 4/5 Viorel M. 6 years ago on Google
    The food is quite good, and it's the best choice if you're around these beaches. I recommend pepperoni pizza (it's called Hot or something similar) with Gorgonzola topping, and the fish. The waiters are a bit rude and it gets extremely crowded during lunchtime, but all in all, it's a good place to eat at the beach.

  • 4/5 Mihaela D. 4 years ago on Google
    Fresh fish dishes, but small portions. Nice bar. Very busy

  • 4/5 Jay S. 3 years ago on Google
    The food was acceptable but we had to eat on a table that was half in sand because we couldnt eat on a table that was booked for 22pm. So i and my family went to eat at 19:30 and left at 20:45 and we were not allowed on the booked table even though it was booked from 22:00.

👍 Pretty nice place with tasty pizza, but don't expect finesse. You won't get plate or cutlery. How much does it cost? I got one pizza: Half of veggie and other half picante (number 13 and 6 on the menu). Adding two Ciuc beers to it I paid using Visa card my account was charged by €10.15 💳 I conside...

😠 Despite the fact that we had booked a table in advance, it took over an hour and a half from the time we were served the drinks to the time we were served the first three of eleven dishes that we had ordered.
