Really nice atmosphere, charming waiter with personality, very good food. We had the paella de galo which for me could use a bit more salt but otherwise was perfect. Croquetas, Croca and Secreto were also very good. Desserts were ok. A bit on the expensive side for the area, but reasonable for a special treat.

Food excellent, charge for use of terrace was signposted but not immediately identified on the menu. Bread & olives weren't ordered, yet served and charged. Bread exceedingly pricey at €5,20 for roughly 8 pieces. Loved the kiwi tree ceiling on the terrace. Overall - ok.

Had the Refuxio salad with shrimp, tuna, salmon. So yummy! Great atmosphere- old fashioned ice cream parlor crossed with the loose brightly lit bar.
