She was ready to go before I got my order. I had the three tacos. They were very small 3" at best. About three bites. Definitely not worth the price and would never recommend this place so be forewarned. Tables and chairs are made from old shipping pallets. Best thing I can say about this place is it was clean and very colorful.

Heard about this place a lot from friends and finally visited. A Mexican restaurant run by a…read moreMexican owner. Located quite close to railway station, central market, theater, Luceros Square and other places of interest in Alicante. A short walk of 15 minutes from most places. Creative interior design. Wild colours, brooms, cleaning products' bottles and funny quotes on the walls. The bill was brought on a mousetrap. Drinks and beers were served in jars instead if glasses. The food was fine to my taste but a friend who claims he's an expert in Mexican food said it's nothing special. They have a display at entrance outside with photos of their "Instagram famous" visitors. If you have a lot of followers on Instagram, they will love it :) Visit if you are in Alicante. I probably won't be back anytime soon as I don't visit Alicante often. Polite staff, cards accepted.

Beautiful location, restaurant and ambiance. We had a reservation for 8ppl at 10:30pm on a Friday…read morenight and were very excited. The menu has great options and excellent food, mostly shared plates which we were fine doing. We ordered: Mussels Chicken salad Grilled Octopus with purée Boneless beef flank Wild mushroom ravioli Vegan burger Jamón iberico Pan con tomate Artisan cheese plate However, For a fine dining location the service was Mediocre. Our waitress took her time to take our order and the food was very slow to come out. I ordered the vegan burger for my friend (she is actually a VEGAN) and asked that she bring it out with the appetizer plates since that was all my friend would be eating. Well, the burger didn't come out with our food and we waited and waited and waited. I also asked if the vegan burger came with vegan cheese, our waitress interrupted me before I finished and said "no it doesn't have any cheese". When the burger finally came out, it had regular cheese on it! NOTE: I SPEAK FLUENT SPANISH SO THIS WASN'T A LANGUAGE ISSUE. As our food came out we wanted to add a couple of plates to the selection (simple items: pan con tomate y jamon y queso) but our waitress kept disappearing and was very slow to attend to us. Then Halfway through our meal our waitress disappeared and we had a male waiter we were confused and unsure where our original waitress went. At the end of the night I asked the male waiter for a separate check for food and drinks, he confirmed and told the former waitress also. By the time we're done all the wait staff had left and they had rudely begun moving tables and cleaning the restaurant, yet there were two other tables still dining! No one was to be seen to ask for the check so when I did find someone.... The check hadn't been split as requested. For a €300 total bill, we expected better

Because the restaurant is small, the interaction with owner and staff feels very personal and welcoming--again, making me want to return.

Was here right after Easter…read moreand the town was still busy with tourists but I can imagine the Summer months must be crazy busy! Max from Verona, Italy runs this place with his family. Has been open since October. Very relaxed place to eat a nice lunch, have a glass or two (or more!) or wine and drinks. Can sit inside or in a nice lounge environment al fresco. The food is all hand made and home made. Highly recommend. We had a nice salad and grilled prawns for Mom and Dad while our kids had chicken in lemon/orange sauce. I found the sauce delicious but we had to scrape the sauce off for the kids. The owners saw what we were doing and offered to cook us new chicken without the sauce but it was fine. As you can imagine, being Italian, great coffees here too. We will be back!!

We really enjoyed picking from the trays filled with little wooden boards, each offering something different. We made it our mission to try as many as possible, and we loved every single one! It's also awesome that everything is priced the same, which makes it super easy. We paired our meal with some refreshing tinto de verano, and it was perfect! The whole atmosphere was so much fun and interactive, especially counting the boards to see how many we devoured and figuring out the bill. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making our time there truly unforgettable. We didn't wait much for a table but there was a big line when we were leaving, it is definitely a very popular place and we can see why! Can't wait to go back!

This place serves different as you don't order the tapas from the menu as they constantly bring trays of hot tapas from the kitchen and this is how you select.
