    This is a stunning restaurant with a very clever chef. Beautiful food presented well, great service and interesting menu. Would happily come to Alicante just to eat here.

    Definately among top food experiences in alicante and beyond. Fresh ingredients and inspirational combinations results in creating very very good results. Equally good choices of wine pairings. I would suggest increasing the portions a bit for the respective prices. Gourmet is not necessarily reduced in quantity. My compliments to the chef.also very polite waiters. Keep u the good work and always find a way to improve

    I just showed up and was able to grab a seat at the bar. Javier was awesome and made some amazing recommendations as well as wine pairings. I was able to sample a few wines before making a selection which was greatly appreciated. The highlight for me was the poached egg with truffles.

    Easy location, in the centre next to car parks. Great food and well priced. Very attentive staff and would recommend. We will be back. We don't have any photos as we were too eager to eat.!

    Gema's cooking puts a modern twist on traditional recipes passed down by her mother and grandmother. The result is inventive and flavorful cuisine that showcase love and skill in equal proportion. Everything we tried was delicious, but the highlights were the melt-in-your-mouth solomillo and a dessert made with mascarpone cream, dates and chocolate. Gema's husband, Javier, was a delightful host and server whose warmth and hospitality contributed to a thoroughly enjoyable evening. We've had a lot of great meals in Alicante, but this was our favorite and we already can't wait to go back!

    Our tour guide gave us some suggestions for places with fresh local ingredients and this one was the best tapas we have had in Alicante. The service was fast and efficient and the staff very friendly. Creative presentations and everything was just amazing. This is not the typical tourist trap. The prices were really very reasonable. You will not be disappointed!

    A large group of us experienced tapas for the first time here. I enjoyed the long, relaxing lunch with varied and unique foods served.
