A MUST when you visit Playa Hermosa!!! A wide selection of wines and tapas. A little highly priced but it's worth it!!! Try it.

Lovely tapas place where you can try a bit of everything at a very reasonable price. The atmosphere outside is really nice and relaxing, staff is friendly and every tapas we had was delicious. Loved it !

This outdoor restaurant was a bit pricey but we ordered 9 plates to share among 4 of us. Each tapas was different but all were good. We did make reservations as it can get busy before 7pm.
