"Ordered a takeaway whilst staying on a local campsite. The food took two hours to arrive."
"However, when my friend stated she didn’t like the sweet potato fries, the waitress Asked if she’d ever eaten them before to which my friend said yes and these weren’t to her liking. They still charged us £3 for a dish we didn’t eat."

"The food... I'm lost for words. Everything was cooked to perfection."
Cons:
"Just keep in mind that some of the dishes are much bigger than regular tapas, we couldn’t eat it all and some food was taken home with us."
"The volume food did not represent the number of people, just not enough, small portions."
"Very little seasoning or spice, cocktails had very little flavour, meat was very overcooked."

"Food was nice but a tad salty."

Cons:
"If you want authentic tapas or Mexican food, go somewhere else."

"Very overpriced to what it is 1 tapas on average 7-8 pounds."
