Great place to stop and refill! The beer is served chilled, the gourmet menu fills the senses and staff friendly and professional. An oasis in our wonderful town #lamalcriada #nailsfactorybenalmadena

We visited this place; it was a nice location and the wine was good. We had serious reservations about the food and won't order again. The price for chicken curry (a few pieces, not many fries) was 9/10 euros, and the size was like a large tapas. The fries usually cost almost 7 euros. For these prices, other places offer normal portions. We have no complaints about the rest, but for these prices, this portion is excessive.

The ease of booking and the friendliness of the staff were outstanding. Parking (just as they told us on the phone) is very easy in the area. Despite not having air conditioning, it's very cool inside thanks to cross-ventilation. There are no cooking smells inside. They have a terrace. The breaded prawns, chicken strips, tempura vegetables, and cheesecake (no photo) are highly recommended. We'll definitely be back to try other items on the menu.

Terrible service

We waited over an hour for two dishes, and there were hardly any other customers. The food wasn't worth it; it was very average. The waiters were very confused and couldn't seem to get the orders right.
