"Nice views. Food good. Service I could not say it was really good as I have to go to the bar to order my food. As soon we arrived, waitress told me that she will check the table for us… and never back. Waiting on the table and we realised that she was taking other orders -even tables which were sitting after us. Maybe we were unlucky this time, but food and views are nice."

"Great spot to watch the sunset in tarifa. Also they give you beer nuts and sour candy with your drink ..which is worth a star all on its own. The food was surprisingly good for a beach bar. Would definitely recommend this spot."

"One of the famous beach chiringuitos restaurants in Tarifa. You need to understand that Tarifa has a life on its own, sometimes you need to make reservations ahead and sometimes you drop in and surprise there’s a free table. Service really depends on who is serving you in all of Tarifa, we were lucky we had a super friendly waiter but we also had a really angry waitress I know they spend thousands of hours working and it’s hard but still.. Food was either amazing or terrible nothing in the middle. The steak looked amazing and the croquetas. But the tuna looked like a kids plate, two eggs and small pieces of tuna with a couple wakame algae. I based my experience only on why we were there, a quick lunch before moving on. The views are amazing for sunset, the beach in front so if you’re planning to go here for tardeo, beers and just chill with friends then it’s a top spot to be."
