"We ended up here for lunch as the place we had originally chosen for lunch had closed for holidays and this was the nearest place we could find. As you enter the bar area is to your left and the restaurant to your right. In the hallway is a huge tank of live lobsters and also a fish and meat display cabinet. Most of the fish in the cabinet looked tired, it dissuaded us from ordering any fish in-fact. I never understand why restaurants do this, if your fish is not super fresh then don’t display it! I chose salmorejo to start with, which was smooth, silky and full of flavour. For main course I had mushroom risotto croquettes, intense mushroom flavour, moist on the inside crispy on the outside. These came with vegetable crisps for some reason, a bit of salad would have been much nicer. My partner had a generous portion of carrillada but the dish was let down by serving frozen chips with it. For dessert I had mandarin sorbet, which wasn’t really sorbet but more like a slush puppie and my partner had ice-cream with raisins and Pedro Ximenez sherry, it’s the Andalusian version of rum and raisin ice-cream, it was nice but would have benefited from soaking the raisins in the sherry first. It’s a no-frills restaurant doing traditional Andalusian dishes fairly well. The staff are nice, attentive and friendly, my only criticism here was all the dishes erred on the salty side."
