Booked a table for 7pm. Just as well we did as it was packed. Lovely menu with plenty of choice. Paella was excellent. Hand-stretched pizzas looked nice too. Not cheap but very good. Didn't have room for dessert. Asked for a glass of tap-water with our beers and wine and were given a carafe for the table.
