Thoroughly enjoyed it! Only issue was a very noisy table next to us… Maybe on the selfish side, but it would have been appreciated if management had asked them to quiet down a little bit with lots of clapping and shouting.

Such a great spot that is a bit of a hidden gem. if you’re looking for a great view over the city, go about a half an hour before sunset. It’s beautiful!

The service and view were great. We had the paella for two. It was good but not great. It needed more tomato sauce or something.
The flan was kind of gelatinous. It tasted like it was a mix. I couldn’t put my finger on what was wrong.
We were celebrating our anniversary and they gave us two glasses of champagne. The prices are high but I expected that. It is a restaurant for special occasions
