  We were a table of 4 and had the restaurant week lunch.

  I walked by this place a few times and loved the decor especially the two round tables they have near the windows, so definitely was looking forward to a great ambience like that to spend a Friday lunch.

  We instead climbed up 2 flights of stairs and were seated on the 3rd floor, the first two floors just looked a lot more appealing so that was a disappointing start.

  The appetiser buffet was nice, particularly the gazpacho, bread and croquettes. The mains were also good (octopus and paella) although 2 of my guests ordered steaks medium-rare - one came medium-rare while the other was medium-well done and the latter was not too happy about that.

  The desserts were great (got the cheesecake and flan). I do feel though whether a place is all-you-can-eat or not - for lunch coffee/tea should always be included, especially in a proper sit-down restaurant like this one. To throw in coffee as a 'dessert' (albeit with ice cream) isn't exactly ideal. I would have liked a coffee with dessert as I was in a food coma after the meal.

  The service was good. the people were nice.
