TheForkUserDelicious food and the menu was very well priced. Really recommendable. We would definitely return. we particularly enjoyed the aubergine starter.
TheForkUserVery nice and cosy restaurant with a wonderful romantic location on the beach. The view is fantastic as the town itself. Very professional high-level stuff. Food was really good, specially liked the starters. Definitely recommend visiting it.
TheForkUserGreat place to have dinner at! Service was quick and kind. A beautifully decorated place. Tasty, well served plates, come in very big portions. A pleasure really.
TheForkUserThe food was excellent and the ratio price/quality is very good. Improvement point can be on service. Very satisfied with the restaurant ans I recommend it. Special recognition to the Chef and his team.
TheForkUserThe waitress who served our table was superb????food was great. Perfect ending to our two week holiday in Empuriabrava
TheForkUserIncredible gastronomic experience in Empuries, they have a michelin star an it’s worth it. Different dishes using local and ecological products, like this you can appreciate the richness of this area. I really recommend it!
TheForkUserAbsolutely wonderful. Salmon was cooked to perfection. Very friendly and attentive service. Will return over and over for the delicious food!
TheForkUserExcellent service and slightly better food/presentation than other restaurants around. Lovely building/setting. Worth a visit. One main dish was very short on the seafood content (3 clams, one king prawn and 2 calamari rings) so not worth the price but other options good.
TheForkUserBeen lucky enough to fine dine in Paris New York Sydney Singapour and Southend on Sea and Essencia's food easily compares with them all. Lunch was delightful with a great selection, the local Rose wine was cold crisp and dry in fact perfect. We will be returning to sample the rest of the menu although our very helpful waiter did inform us that the menu changes every week so I can see many many visits in the near future .
TheForkUserWhat's not to like? Good quality food (fixed price menu at a great price), friendly staff, very clean and not too noisy!
_TI***pbThis place is a hidden gem! The cocktails are delicious, and the staff is friendly and efficient. The unique decor and atmosphere make it a lovely spot to enjoy a meal.
TheForkUserAbsolutely an amazing experience. Eating there makes us discoring new flavours and providing an insight of the chef's intent, The restaurant is highly recommended,
TheForkUserthe food combined with the music made into a really great experience. Also the knowledge of host about the wine was excellent. We will return.
TheForkUserNice restaurant, the food was very good. Service excellent. Wanted to book again the next day, but they were fulltime booked.
TheForkUserGreat food and friendly efficient service in a lovely setting. Market tasting menu was good value. Very enjoyable as ever.
TheForkUserGood selection of vegan & gf dishes. Delicious vegan burger. Charming location.
TheForkUserThe food was marvellous, but the restaurant could open the windows when it brings the plancha to the table, my coat smelled of smoke.
TheForkUserAll aspects of this restaurant are good and when all parts come together it becomes a very enjoyable and tasty experience.
TheForkUserThe place is very nice, both the interior rooms and the exterior spaces. The welcome and the service are very pleasant and efficient. Maybe too fast, no time to take a break between two courses. On the other hand the inside room was noisy, that breaks a little the romantic atmosphere sought.The menu is interesting. In the starters and small appetizers: only very nice surprises. On the dishes: correct, beautiful portions. But... some associations of products/tastes are not successful. It is inventive but not surprising and sometimes a little strange. It lacks a gastronomic touch to the kitchen. We recommend for moments with family or friends. Less for gastronomic and romantic moments.
TheForkUserA wonderful restaurant worthy of a Michelin recommendation. Always great food and service, great view of the harbour!
TheForkUserFantastic location in a historic castle overlooking a small peaceful pond with innovative delicious cuisine. Highly recommend
TheForkUserRestaurant with quality food and very diligent service. I recommend the croquettes, excellent. The girls ordered pasta and pizza and enjoyed themselves. These dishes were very appropriate for the little ones.
TheForkUserHighly recommend Can Xabanet. They've got a varied daily menu at a very reasonable price, served by riendly and competent staff. One not to miss in Banyoles!
TheForkUserWhen we arrived for our 2000 reservation, it seemed they were not ready for us. No problem, we understand it is early in Spain. The venue is spectacular. I would say it’s like “farmy” with a modern chic feel. We loved the venue! The service was very good. We had several servers that were very nice to speak English for us, even though we were the ones that should speak Spanish. The food came out quick but there wasn’t much follow-up. Regarding the food - we had gyoza (they were spot on). We also had spicy edamame and they were fresh, spicy, and crisp. We had the Bobila Poke bowl and it was the star of the show. The mix of flavor from seaweed, avocado, rice, salmon, and even apple all went well together. We also had sushi. Unfortunately this is where I think things were not top notch. Most specifically with the salmon and tuna roll. Our tuna roll looked like my 7 year old daughter rolled it. There was very little fish, a lot of rice and one of the pieces had almost no tuna in it. The salmon roll was similar. The problem is the fish should be the star of the roll but it was the rice that was prevalent. I really felt let down with the sushi. That being said, the fish was fresh and the taste was spot on. If we return, we would probably eat every bit the sushi.
TheForkUserVisited with our son and grandson. Plenty of choice and the service was quite quick, although the restaurant was busy. The robots making deliveries of orders was enjoyed by everyone, especially the children who enjoy petting them. Would recommend and will certainly visit again when next in the area.
TheForkUserExcellent food, service and value. We had the set menu for 26,50, which includes a glass of wine, 3 shared tapas, and a paella. Simply perfect. Moules very fresh. To much for two. We took our potatoes bravas home and even some paella
TheForkUserGreat food, creative and tasty, perfect portions. Service was perfect as was the ambience for lunch. Polite and engaging servers. A must try if in Girona.
TheForkUserThis restaurant had a Nice ambiance but after waiting for 1,5 hours for our food it came to the table and was cold+ we missed 1 of the dishes. After complaining we waited another 30 minutes but there where still no new dishes. We asked for the bill and left.
