Reviews
One of the best Paella experience I ever had in my life.. everything is so fresh and Restaurant is so nice and clean a beautiful terrace and very kind staff. Food recommendation from the executive chef Giuliano and wine were exceptional.. Definitely high recommendation for the seafood restaurant.
This place may look like a tourist trap but I can ensure you all it’s not! I’m not local but have my own place here since 2012 and this place serves the best paella I ever had. On that the service is superb and environment is pretty perfect. We also had sangria, it was good but I have had better. But this is a place worth to visit for sure! People that give this place a bad review probably just looking for cheap places were the highlights is chicken nuggets. Give this place a visit and you will not regret it. (This paella was with Lanzarote shrimps)
The food and service were amazing. We came for dinner 2 times and would come even more. The black fideuá is fantastic! Thanks Juliano for his great hospitality. We will definitely come back.
For me, the Paella was mediocre. Plenty of food but lacking flavour & those lovely undertones of flavour. An expensive but not a great meal @ €108 (with wine) for 2. I wouldn't endorse it & not going to bother trying to find another more decent Paella. Had muscles starter, served with garlic bread which was solid. Needed to be soaked in the liquor before I could eat it. For €18 I expected much better.
I went to El Caldero with two friends and was very positively surprised 😊. There is a new owner, and the team is extremely professional, friendly, and attentive 👏. Everything we ordered (see the bill) was excellent 🍽️. The cheese board 🧀 and the bacalao 🐟 were especially delicious, but overall the quality of the food was outstanding 😋. The outdoor area is very well designed and protected 🌬️☔. We had an extremely windy night and were perfectly comfortable, well covered and sheltered, so it also feels safe and pleasant even in bad weather 👍. Great food, great service, and a very nice atmosphere ✨. I will definitely go back 🔁.
