    To our surprise they had a special staircase elevator for a wheelchair. So going down to the restaurant was easy. The reception and help of the personnel was very good. A good atmosphere in the restaurant, good advise on menu and wine. The food was well prepared and lovely taste.

    We came here last Friday with a group of 15 people to try pinxtos. Despite the crowds at Aste Nagusia, we were served quickly, correctly and courteously. We took a mix of 30 pinxtos and although we did not always know what we were eating, everything tasted delicious. Afterwards, we enjoyed some more croquettes, Iberico ham and cheese, all accompanied by delicious white wine. We found the experience so enjoyable that on Sunday we reserved a table to eat a la carte. Once again, everyone enjoyed themselves! Small minus point: the dark bathrooms. Plus: the friendly service, who also spoke fluent English. My recommendation? You should all visit this place!

    4 / 5 Reviews posted by V8707FTmartinab (Dublin, Ireland) on 02/09/2024

    Big nine day festival on when we arrived and was still going on when we left days later. So even more commendable that our meal in a packed Plaza Nueva in La Olla was great! Not cheap but worth it...
