"We just discovered this restaurant on the 4th day of our stay in Mascarat. They are open only till 6pm in the low season, but were very flexible with us even on saturday. We booked a table to have lunch with our baby in babycart. We had a superb paella, and great home-made desserts too. Food is great, service is very kind! Really recommend this place if you are nearby!"

"Amazing setting, great service, and delicious salads. And the coffee was excellent. A nice surprise right on the beach"
"Great paella! People mostly seemed to come for this. Place is very close to the beach so you hear the soothing sound of the waves. Waiting time for paella is okay. We had the “carne y verduras” paella. It was okay but the meat in the paella was a bit dry."
