“ A nice restaurant for a quick bit or drink when you're not in the busy center of the city. The Russian salad is indeed very special. I normally wouldn't order any of those, but decided to try and it didn't disappoint! The croquettas are huge, so best to share them ”
“ A very nice restaurant and friendly staff. Had the menu in English and German. Slightly on the expensive side but the food was good. I would recommend one of the omelets if you have a good appetite. ”
“ After visiting La Autentica, we had to try another Carmela restaurant and this one didn’t dissapoint. There wasn’t a lot of gluten free options as in the last one, but still the food I had was really good, the highlight being the desert. ”
“ Tasty food and a very efficient service. The croquettes were particularly nice and larger than expected. The local tomato soup was surprisingly delicious. I was not particularly fond of the desserts but my partner liked them. ”
“ Came here for dinner fairly late without a reservation, but got quickly seated in the outdoor area. Menu had a few missing items at the time, but had a good selection of various dishes. Everything was solid but a little pricey for how it was. Croquetas were good sized, the fish was decent, and the dessert was good ”
“ Fantastic service and very attentive. The food was very good. We dined in a covered outdoor section. ”
“ Very glad we made a bit of a trek here, even in the rainy weather - our favourite meal in Spain far! The service was quick, the servers were very understanding. The partridge salad was so perfectly balanced flavour-wise, and we were glad for some vegetables. The croquettes did not disappoint, the black pudding one was sweet and creamy. Definitely recommend! ”
“ Most dishes were great! I liked the octopus which was slightly crispy, different from other octopus dishes that we’ve had in Spain. We also enjoyed the fried eggplant and the croquettes! My friends and I didn't really enjoy the fish tho ”
