What reviews say. Opinions are very divided. On the plus side: the patio, the set menu, the paella and the tapas; on the minus side: uneven service, meat not cooked as ordered, and à la carte prices a little high for the quality. The set lunch is the safest bet. More ideas in where to eat in Nerja.
